Mid-late October/1st day of November pick ups:

(Left) Zelda: Phantom Hourglass [DS]; (Right - Top to bottom) Drawn to Life [DS]; Jeanne D'Arc [PSP]; Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops [PSP]; NBA 2K8 [X360]; FIFA 08 [X360]; The Orange Box [X360]; Virtua Fighter 5 [X360]; Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence [PS2]; Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance [PS2]

Picked up my folks this arvo from the airport, this is what they got me from the US:

16GB Apple iPod Touch

And the pièce de résistance:

80GB Sony PlayStation 3

Along with the following games:

Heavenly Sword, Resistance: Fall of Man and MotorStorm (pack-in with the console).


For the record, they weren't so much "gifts", I paid for much of it. The 80GB PS3 and 16GB iPod Touch cost about AU$920 (US$850). Had I bought them both here in Australia, it would have easily set me back AU$1500+ (about US$1400). Shows how much we're getting ripped off here, but it also signals how strong the Aussie dollar is against the greenback which is nearing dollar for dollar for the first time in decades.

Now to import Ratchet & Clank.

What monitor is that and how did you hook it up to your PS3 (as well as your (PC?) speakers?)

And people wonder why their 360s die...

and his wii looks to perfectly placed standing upright on something.

 

[tracky_dacks]

What monitor is that and how did you hook it up to your PS3 (as well as your (PC?) speakers?)

It's a Samsung 226BW. PS3 is connected via DVI through a HDMI-to-DVI cable. X360 is hooked up via VGA. No PC connected to the monitor (I use a MacBook).

As for speakers, the PS3 is hooked up to my LG 5.1 home theatre system using the audio inputs from the included AV cable. Switching between PS3 and X360 audio is done by using an AV selector.

Taiko No Tatsujin DS, methinks. I wonder how it is?

I know the monitor is a Samsung 226bw and i assume he used a HDMI to DVI convertor to hook it up.

 

[Blablurn]

Taiko No Tatsujin DS, methinks. I wonder how it is?

It's fun. It's not as good as Ouendan but still very entertaining.

This is actually my September-October-November load. I moved to Japan in September, so I was far too busy to post my acquisitions dating back to late August. Well, here they are.
