Getting my Level-5 on this month, also loving Lara Croft picked it up last month but forgot to share!
I'm celebrating Mario's 25th birthday with this awesome complete set of the 30 famicon mini games for GBA that I grabbed on yahoo auctions. There were actually released for the famicon 20th anniversary 5 years ago, which was I guess also Mario's 20th birthday. I also got the 3 limited boxes from the club nintendo, and I love their retro design 
Also, they're huge. Way bigger than what I thought by looking at some pictures online.
The outside boxes in which they come from the club nintendo
The 3 actual boxes
First box: 10 games from the famicon (front, back and inside)
Second box: 10 more games from the famicon (front, back and inside)
Third box: 10 games from the famicon disk system (front, back and inside)
Next week will be Mario Collection on Wii and the playstation Move (finally!!!)

If there was a "Pickup of the Month" award, you would've grabbed it this month. Amazing stuff.
Add Kirby Epic Yarn to the batch as well, traded 3 to get it for free.
Crazy trade in day. Traded FIFA 2011 for $52 at Blockbuster and got Halo for $14 after tax. Then headed over to EB, traded Red Dead, Arc Rise, Splinter Cell Conviction and Mario Kart DS for a whopping $134 because of a +40% trade-in value card that I got from them. Then traded in 3 more DS games (worth $9, $10 and $12) to get Kirby for free when it comes out this Sunday. Still have $24 on an EB gift card too.
And I still am playing Dead Rising and Batman AA so... yeah... I think I'm good for a while.

I know it's because of the two games included, but it seems weird seeing two different ratings on that MoH box.

My PS3 died last April and due to time constraints decided not to fix it 3 weeks ago.
Since then I've been hording up the games that I missed out on since that time.
Also hunted down a number of games in original covers that had turned platinum by now and picked up a couple GOTY editions on the discount. The double Bioshock 2 Special Edition was on offer together for only 25 euro's
Only missing about 8 more games released in the previous year to complete my collection. Will also be picking up the Borderlands GOTY and Dragon Age Ultimate Editions this month as I missed out on both those games last year. Probably going to pass the 100th PS3 game mark before the end of this year. Bit shocking actually.

wish I still had a CRT. Had to bail out on my 38 inch trinitron when I moved. That fucker just was too heavy. Made everything from pre 2005 look SO good, though.
SonOfABeep said:
38 inch? Is this using the weird old British/Canadian measuring system where they advertised the size of the tube face instead of the actual viewable area?
I am currently using a 32" Sony FD Wega CRT and, yes, it is great for my PlayStation. It took a little work in the service menu to fix the geometry, though.
