I've been playing Phoenix Wright a fair bit lately, and man these cases sometimes take an awfully long time! I went on a 2.5 hour plane trip to and back these past few days and only played it. I was in the middle of case 3, and I'm STILL in the middle of case 3!

Hey nice literary haul there Echoes. I hear The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference is a really well written book. Have you had a chance to read it yet?

Couldn't find Orbital or Dotstream AT ALL. We hit up about 5 stores just looking for those two and I came up empty handed. :( x 1bajillion

How's it play with the PSP's d-pad? I was thinking of picking this up but didn't want to wear it out too much


The d-pad is unplayable IMO. I am playing using the analog stick, which seems to work surprisingly well. Mostly I am frustrated at the game's difficulty, and my suckiness at fighting games. I am getting my ass handed to me by the A.I.!

But overall, this is a great addition to your PSP library, especially at $13.

Love the Fela albums. I'm feeling the Zombie track in GTA.

You missed your chance... last week I saw all seven bit generations games for ¥500 each in Akiba. I bought a few, and I went back today to pick up Coloris, but the shop is gone. Nothing there anymore, just a vacant lot.

Orbital kicks ass, by the way, but Digidrive is the best.
 
I don't have my camera up and ready, but I picked up the mother load this month thanks to selling the Wii and the economic stimulus check:

Playstation 3 (40GB)
HDMI cable
PS3 remote
Dual Shock 3 controller
Hot Shots Golf: Out of Bounds
Pro Evolution Soccer 2008
Planet Earth (Bluray)

Crosswords DS

I liked Yes Boss a million times more than Saawariya :p

Nothing touches DDLJ though... nothing! Oh and Kajol>Juhi too


Yeah, Yes Boss is a Billion times better but of a different time, different place. Saawariya BD is absolutely stunning...comparable to Moulin, or Storraro's One From the Heart. Dil to Pagal and DDLJ are the best modern bollies and, yes, Juhi is my abdolute favorite.

that said, Kajol is untouchable.

No More Heroes was $20 on sale at Circuit City, so I decided it's worth a try. Been meaning to get God of War 2 since it dropped to $20 so I got that as well. Tide unrelated.

That was probably the same store dcharlie said he saw all of them in too! lolz.

Thankfully these were also only ¥500 each. And they were pretty much only in one store and a couple were in another store in Shibuya.

arne, do try to seek out the other two. Dotstream was my personal GOTY for 2006 and I must have put thirty to forty hours unlocking everything. What a great little series and I hope they eventually find their way to the eventual Gameboy VC.

Plus a PSP-to-TV cable, it's already unpacked though and set up so no pictures. It's really weird that it doesn't use the whole screen in games :S

Not really a pick-up, but...

Tonight, I have seen the light.

Speed Racer is ... just... whoa.

The whole thing is absolutely ridiculously over-the-top... and I loved 99% of it. And the colors... by Jove. The colors. I think I'll have to go and paint my house neon pink to compensate for my bland and colorless life.
I think my eyes are bleeding profusely. It feels awesome.

Oh yeah, I watched some other movie too. Don't remember much besides wanting to fast forward through the unnecessary/boring parts. It was alright, I guess.
Just kidding. I enjoyed both, but SR certainly beats IM in my eyes. By a good green country mile even. Sorry if that offends anyone.
