New 40 Inch 1080P Sony Bravia - Black Friday 2009 - Only $599.99 - SCORE!

 

[Zaptruder]

Upgraded the old battlestation with an LG series 55 37 inch tv and got rock band beatles.

You can get the top on, if you lower the height of the desk and its support underneath it...

It's a viable option, because I've done it myself. The top bit is definetly useful for putting stuff on as well.

 

[Lostconfused]

Damn now I don't feel as bad for having all the clutter on my desk as well.

 

[jergrah]

A little late posting this month, have had MW2 and AC2 for a bit - snagged Dead Space:Extraction for $19.99 at Gamestop this afternoon

[WEGGLES]

What is it?

 

[KiNeSiS]

MarkMan buddy pal, you have several copies of Tekken 6 PS3 mind donating one to me?

 

[kingslunk]

What is it?

Tool - Salival [DVD/CD] box set thats been out of print since like 2001

 

[JEKKI]

my black friday haul!!

2 full priced games!!

and Asa ramen!!

 

[RC]

FINALLY ITS MINE

Great pickup. Hopefully you didn't pay too much.

"You Lied", is probably my favourite track on Salival. Its an awesome cover.

 

[SmZA]

I've been too busy to post until now, so here's all my November stuff at once!

I've wanted a pressure cooker for ages. So far I've cooked a stew, a vegetarian chili, and a bunch of bits and pieces. It's great! I'll try and post to the IronGAF cook thread next time I use it.

Three very good books about cooking. I especially recommend What Einstein Told His Cook even though I really hate the title.

Cormac McCarthy's The Road (an excellent and fast read), Piano instruction book & DVD, Edward Said's book of music essays.

A couple of friends have told me to watch FLCL for years, I finally got round to it and it's great. Operation Flashpoint may have been a waste of money.

Steam has made me a broken man. Still more sales to come.

Attended Star Wars exhibition and Aida and will be seeing Cosi Fan Tutte in a few days.

I've had a Space Pen since I was little and it's slowly fallen apart, so I got a new one to replace it. I never get the opportunity to write in a vacuum or underwater but it fits perfectly in my wallet.

My most irritating pickup - a mo for Movember - just three more days and I can shave the damn thing off! I did raise over $100 which makes up for it.

And finally... I got an award for being awesome!

 

[SmZA]

Sorry, I forgot a few things...

Some classical box sets which were on special.

My usual grab-bag of random cheap CDs.

And finally, to keep germane to the Gaming section, Advance Wars Dual Strike.

 

[ibu]

Getting all the Playstation series of the Resident Evils.

FFIX Guide... hard to find at a decent price these days.

Sorry for the bad image quality took with Curve 8900, awaiting my camera to be returned from my friend.

 

[Tashi]

I spy Ill Communication in the lot of cheap CD's...nice pickup

 

[Machine]

Recent pickups. The martial arts films were from a video rental store that is going out of business - 5 DVDs for $20.

 

[Ecto311]

FINALLY ITS MINE

I remember buying this when it came out. I didn't know it was hard to find..

Edit: I just searched eBay and damn its worth way more then I thought. I enjoy the shit out of some tool but this set was a disappointment when I was in highschool. Maybe it was the lame VHS that did it I don't remember.

 

[Asparagus]

Those What a Wonderful World covers screamed Solanin to me, went to check if there was a relation, and BAM! Must have.
Read Solanin this Summer and it was inspiring to say the least.

woha iam curently reading solanin and love it SOOOOO mouch please tell me great (?) "what a wonderfll world" is???

It's nice to see the Solanin love, I really enjoyed it as well when I bought it earlier this year. I'm not too far into What a Wonderful World yet but it looks like it's going to be equally good.

Did they take down the website? I have the whole content that was online on my HDD if anyone needs it.

 

[oracrest]

I found a few really sweet uncut capcom arcade marquees.

This was one of my favorite games growing up. If it was in an arcade, I always went straight for it. And it had really good original illustration for the cabinet.

Haha I'm sure! Thanks for the advice!

The Glenn Gould Goldberg variations are really something. Nice pick-up!

I own a DnD Shadows Over Mystara/Tower of Doom arcade machine (CPS2), and Zanac was my fav NES game too! Dude, we should hang out! :lol

 

[Patriotsbball5460]

I'm a dirty fucking whore.

Broke down and got a Shantae 2 player used, $129.99 before I traded in $53 in DVD, BRD, PSP, and PS3 wares. :|

I'm ready for the Shantaepocalypse now! Bring it on.

Spoiler

No other real use for the fucking thing. . .

Did you get that Warhawk statue from PSNation Podcast?

 

[SonOfABeep]

Tool - Salival [DVD/CD] box set thats been out of print since like 2001

Heh I bought that set for around $30 when it came out - sold it back in 2005 or so for around $120. I love tool but that was too good to pass up.

Oh i know, i tried myself awhile ago to get a nice complete collection in top condition non-platinum, damn its a pain :lol

Thanks. If you want to read more about Glenn Gould check out the Edward Said essays pictured above, the dude was a huge fan and had some great insight.

It was impossible to find that CD set when it was first released in Toronto. I think I managed to find one a couple weeks later. :lol

 

[Borman]

Got this a few days ago. A Motion tablet, from 2003 but the screen is awesome, not a touchscreen and needs the stylus, but thats exactly what I prefer. Specs are at least as good as most netbooks out there, so for 250 with a stand and keyboard, along with a case, Im happy.

is it a combined unit? I never knew they made that. I have the collection on the Saturn, but it's all in Japanese, so unless you know the paths by heart, they are random.

I dropped the $$$ for a copy of zanac X for ps1. That one is fun. It has the sequel, and the first, with some different versions of the original. Pretty cool, but not nearly as difficult.

 

[Archie]

 

[MarkMan]

is #1 the MW2 pad? Where did u get the shirt?

ODST, as stated.

The shirt I got from a Capcom friend. It's was from a Capcom Fight Club event that took place in New York recently.

 

[Amory]

Sorry for the crappy iphone pics

Picked up Pokemon Platinum and Castlevania: PoR for the DS, and Borderlands for the 360.

Also got awesome seats at the Celtics v Raptors game last night

Which directly resulted in me catching Paul Pierce's headband, which he threw into the crowd after the Celtics' crushing victory

All in all, a pretty good week.

 

[SmZA]

I was VERY close to buying a 120GB Zune off of eBay instead. It would have had 3/4 the capacity, crap warranty, worse battery life and for the same price, but I was still tempted. That's how much I hate iTunes. I guess I'm tied to Apple now but at least I no longer have to shuffle files on and off my 1GB iRiver.

 

[FOOTE]

 

[FoxhoundNL]

Please tell me, is that Sunny in Philly BD region free? How much did that go for?

They are both CPS B Boards, 2 carts, just have to swap them out, since they use the same number of buttons and all the hardware is the same.
