Here are my favorite pickups from SEPTEMBER!

 

[Rummy Bunnz]

Please tell me where I can get one of these.

 

[Yes Boss!]

Yay!

New month. Forgot Ballad of Gay Tony is coming. That shit is gonna be fun.

Favorite pick-ups from last month are:

Asin on Filmfare. Love that my girl is conquering the Hindi Industry. Breath of fresh air:

Totally awesome gesture from memecomplex to send me these (if you need anything else from NA, don't hesitate to ask memecomplex!). Love:

Cheesecake single portion I created last week:

Special nod to MarkMan. My new favorite Mad Catz product. I've got grand expectations for the Tatsunoko stick:

And my Indian spice rack:

Bring on Big October...

 

[MarkMan]

Please tell me where I can get one of these.

You have to buy a bunch of the Dragon Quest IX trading art figures just to put one together...

I got it from these guys: http://www.pinkgorillagames.com/index.php

 

[Rummy Bunnz]

That shooting watch towel is fantastic.

Ahh. I thought it might be one of those put 'em together deals. It's very cool. Thanks!

 

[jaydogg691]

Just impulse bought Tetris. Can't wait for Go.

Man, this month is going to be a great month for Pick-ups.

 

[Yes Boss!]

Wait,

Stuff is up on PSN???

Gonna go make my first October purchase!

 

[epoxy]

some stuff from TGS

 

[sixteen-bit]

September was a big month for me
PS3 Slim and HRAP EX-SE were definite highlights (both are in the above image if you look closely)!

I think this month will be more reserved. Looking forward to Tekken 6!

 

[Yes Boss!]

^^

Beautiful. Nice quote for October.

I had no luck finding a cheap VGA earlier. Stopped into two Gamestops when I went grocery shopping at Trader Joe's and both had it in their system for $40 still :-( Must not be a CA thing yet.

 

[Shadowman16]

What started out as an impulse buy has turned into me starting to collect Nintendo Game and Watch's!

 

[b.e.r.g]

G&Ws are awesome! Mario's Cement Factory rocks

 

[Yes Boss!]

Wow, Game & Watch love! Always wanted to collect/re-buy those as an adult but that is one pricey hobby. Everything that makes Nintendo great is right there in those little things.

Picked up some stuff for the Go. Couldn't get GT Mobile yet since I only have a 1 GB memory card and not enough room for it on the 2000. But, so far what is up on the store is pretty impressive. Still, should give at least five bucks off on new release PSP download titles. $40 for Motorstorm and GT. WTH?! No Pac-Man CE yet :-(

Pixeljunk Monsters Deluxe:

Jumping Flash 2 for old-time memories:

 

[Shadowman16]

G&Ws are awesome! Mario's Cement Factory rocks

I'd only played it once before on one of the GBA G&W collections and didn't think much of it, the actual G&W seems much more frantic and way more fun

Wow, Game & Watch love! Always wanted to collect/re-buy those as an adult but that is one pricey hobby. Everything that makes Nintendo great is right there in those little things.

So true, I've probably spent a little more than I should have so far, plus I got another 3 on their way so I should probably slowdown a bit on the spending :lol

::quietly applauds::

 

[maskrider]

Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 (JPN)
Minna no Sukkiri

 

[Chorazin]

Read a compairison of few BT headsets on Engadget (or Gizmodo, I forget which one) this past week, and these were recommended because they sound good and were dirt cheap ($39.99 on Amazon.)

Got them and they paired with my iPhone 3GS quickly and easily, and they sound good, better than the stock iPhone earbuds I was wearing during my morning walks. I wear glasses and they fit just fine, and they are pretty light. I hate cords so much when working out, so I think these will be the answer to my problems!

 

[Bliddo]

 

[Red.Devil]

Got this little baby in the mail today from Amazon Germany.

 

[MidnightRider]

PSP go?

how have I not heard about this?

 

[so1337]

Jumped in again.

 

[MidnightRider]

I have to wait till the end of the month! God this sucks..... and if I remember correctly we get two MLS players on the front + someone else I don't remember. At least it's Blanco from my team!

OP forget about this beauty I guess!

 

[MidnightRider]

One quick question... (I am not a playstation guy, but I will be soon)

Does your "Trophies" from PSP count as your Trophies on PS3.

Like if I buy the PSP first to play on the go..... will all the trophies I earn be there for when I get my Slim?

 

[archnemesis]

PSP isn't secure enough for a trophy system according to Sony.

 

[MidnightRider]

wow just check my list for this month. my god I will dropping some change.

FIFA10 - pre-order it
MW2 - pre-order it
HALO ODST - climbing aboard today
GTA 4 - climbing aboard today LTTP
Brutal Legend - pre-order it
Forza 3 - pre-order it

 

[MidnightRider]

oh wow that sucks.... that might have made my decision to not buy a PSP. whats the point in playing if I can't earn anything......

I don't mind playing gameboy(doesnt have achievements/trophies) or something along those lines...... but come on.

Im sorry to douche up this thread, but not playing something because it doesnt have trophies is the stupidest thing you could do. The point of playing a game is for fun, not earning virtual trophies that mean nothing.

 

[Blue Heeler]

The biggest pick-up for non-importing PS3 owners should be Demon's Souls on Oct 6th. Best game I've played in a long, long time.

 

[Doc Evils]

 

[Lyte Edge]

I bought Thexder Neo for PSP today. I used to love Thexder on the Apple IIgs, and it's so awesome having an excellent remake with improved controls.

 

[otakuderek]

I bought $600 worth of college textbooks (online and used) and paid my tuition. My wallet is crying and its going to cry more when I pick up Forza 3 (demo = amazing!) and Fable 2 Platinum Hits, maybe MagnaCarta 2 if it's decent.

 

[micromagic]

Sigma 2 Collector's Edition, a day early from HMV, nice surprise.

Box

Game, original sound track & art book. Also contains voucher for special costume.

 

[nny]

TIIIIM

 

[MarkMan]

blurry pic is blurry

sorry ;(

 

[Like the hat?]

planning to get:

-um jammer lammy on PSN
-Borderlands on 360 pr PS3
-Dragon Quest V for DS (already bought!)

and possibly Brutal Legend on 360. Either that or Fable II.

 

[LRB1983]

PSP Go
PSP Go Stand
PSP Go Component Cable
(I'm going to Download Manhunt 2 and Gran Turismo 4 right now. xD)
3 tickets for

 

[TheFightingFish]

Core i5 build is assembled and running. 's gonna be a Media Center / Game Machine hooked up right next to the 42" TV. It's the first desktop that I've had in over 8 years, so it's going to be fun picking up some Steam weekend sales and catching up on some PC gaming.

Sadly I still have to drop in the 4870 1gb that should be arriving today. The GFX card pictured is just a temp one that I borrowed from a friend to see if the 58XX series would push down the prices on the 4870s.

 

[CoilShot]

TIIIIM

Whoa I didnt even know this was out on GOG.

 

[b.e.r.g]

TIIIIM

:O *head explode*

Haven't played that in centuries! Didn't even know it was on gog!

 

[practice02]

Yesterday was my birthday, and Joni the weiner dog was purchased earlier in september

 

[Str0ngStyle]

Got this little baby in the mail today from Amazon Germany.

I knew the pickup thread wouldn't let me down. I am curious about some impressions guys so get crackin asap.

My pickups for last month because I was lazy and didn't post all month.....

HP Mini Netbook. It can actually run WoW. All I can really do is Auction house stuff while at work, but still, I like it

And Finally...

My 1st Hamster. Say hello to Bijou everyone

 

[sixteen-bit]

TIIIIM

i loved that game

 

[MortalMonkey]

 

[Kintaro]

It pains me that I haven't been able to participate in these threads for awhile. =( On the flipside, my wallet has been happy! =)

 

[Pyke Presco]

Fuck the haters, this is one sexy little piece of technology:

comparison shot vs 1000

Expect pics of PSN purchases later today/tomorrow

And the old news, technically a september pickup but I figured I'd just wait for today.

Campaign is good, firefight will wear itself thin very quickly. All told not bad.

 

[JDeluis]

Everytime I go to The Bridge Cinema Deluxe I enjoy searching for photo books on clearance at Borders. "Individuals - Portraits from the Gap Collection" was $5.59 after 30% coupon and comes with a CD of songs featured in Gap Ads.

 

[Liquidus]

 

[Yes Boss!]

Be sure to upload your weekly steps! We are half way to Mars but it is still far, far away. Did my part yesterday and uploaded 12,500 steps with a nice 6-mile walk!

Lots of Go love in this thread...proving all the "overpirced" hate was from a vocal minority. Sounds suspiciously familiar to Wii owners. Sexy new system. New hardware only comes two or three times annually...embrace!

 

[ResidentDante]

Had to have a black controller for Batman

There is a great need for sarcasm font.
