The standee came from my friend who I guess won it in a contest from NISAmerica, he had no room for it and asked if I wanted it, I have no room for it, but I'll gladly take it :lol
I had a little money left over from paying bills so I picked these up
if you have a Microcenter near you they are having a sale on orange tagged games 15% off, the majority of which we're already clearance priced as it is

Thought I had bought alot more over the past months but nope...pretty light considering I was going to buy a PS3, kinda glad I haven't bothered yet too many other things and games are keeping me busy.
Going to get Naruto at the end of the week but I'm gonna try and limit myself to only Mario Galaxy...and perhaps COD4 in November atleast untill I finished The Orange Box and Sega Rally.
Virtua Fighter 5 has been taking practically all of my gaming time since Friday with a smattering of The Orange Box when my hands start hurting too much from button bashing.
Posted some impressions of VF5 in the "official" thread for anyone interested: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=203394&page=2
Other stuff
Viewtiful Joe & PN03: HENSHIN! Classics.
Devil May Cry: Been after the Japanese one for a while, as the PAL version was bordered 50hz hell. Still holds up today, although I keep trying to do moves from DMC3 in it.
Sega Rally: Love this, just need to finish a few of the races I failed to get 1st place in and move onto the final Championship...and then on to Time Trials.
Halo 3: Finished it on Legendary not so long ago, need to go back to it and play some Multiplayer, although not feeling the majority of the maps.
XBL Vision Camera: Got it free from Microsoft UK as they failed twice to pick up my 360 when it was 3RLoD'd.
Halo 3 Wireless Headset: Really good, don't know how I managed without one.
Halo 3 pad: Got excited in the mad rush on launch night to buy one, but I've not opened it up yet and it's too late to get a refund. *glares at it and punches it off the desk*

It's a Panasonic Q, and it does just that (minus the paper printing). It's such an interesting looking piece of hardware.

Sorry I had to...
if only it'll get me some free goodies, eh Kadey?
November is almost here! Everyone have a safe Halloween! November thread will mark the 1 year anniversary of the NeoGAF pick-up post threads!
:celebrate: !
No pickups for me today
New issue of EGM... if that counts lol.Oh and on the subject of controllers... I tried to get a Sony PS1 Dual Analog controller(not the Dual Shock controller), the ones with the concave analog sticks... So I saw one in pristine condition at GameStop and they tried to tell me it was a PS2 controller and charge me $19.99.
...
PS1 controllers should be $5.99 or whatever...
Lucky there was no magazine racks in the vicinity. The goggles would have definately done something.

Anywho, I almost picked up Vampire Hunter D novels 1 & 2 today. The only thing that kept me from getting them was the fact that whenever I get a book/novel to read it collects dust until there is a power outtage(which happens once in a blue moon lol)... or when I go on a vacation.
Oh well, anyways. As we are now on the last day of October, I've compiled the majority of my pick ups for this month in a neat series of pictures. Observe.
Got these from my sister...
Got these from the boss...
Got these from Circuit City...
Got the PH guide to go along with my TP guide...
Got the Persona guide and The Lone Samurai(CASE IN POINT I HAVE NOT CRACKED OPEN THIS BOOK YET)...
Fry's B1G1 Blu-Ray Sale. Each one of these were $10...
Sister got me the HD-DVD add on for the 360... Beautiful Katamari from the boss...
Got the keychains from E 4 All... I think I have more lying around somewhere...
Lazy pic. The Japanese DS games were 9.90 each at Fry's. The SH Origins is just a case signed by series composer Akira Yamaoka.
Ah! Good deal on the Sailor Moon box sets. $10 each. Free Ghost in the Shell for my troubles.
Caved in and bought a deck + some boosters.
More caving in... X_X... Hay GoW PSP demo! (It has a $15 coupon off a slim pSP which I am SO TEMPTED to use lol).
And I found these at a local garage sale for about $1 each... Are they worth anything???
Just kidding, I've had those for awhile already lol.

nny said:signed copy
hm..a steering wheel? Didn't think of that. Seeing that this game requires some precision (to not mess up the lanes, for instance, despite the slowness of the bus), does it play well with a wheel? That sounds good. Oh, I got it on ebay.
Yeah man, it works great with a steering wheel. As if you're driving a real bus, seeing as this a a simulator of some sort. I loved this game back in the day.
On e-bay? Well, thank you. I guess I have to start searching there, thanks.

SarBear said:Here's my October purchases:
I still don't get styling of the new Accord sedan. Its a little bit of Hyundai , some Mazda 6 and whole lotta BMW 5 series. The coupe is very sexy though, I guess the sedan is more practical for you right?
Kadey what do you do to support your addiction and don't say it isn't one!
Well... that was unexpected.
So I was minding my own business on a Friday lunch hour looking for an external drive (not pictured) for the upgrade to Leopard which stalled horribly when my optical drive died.
There was the Wii. Three of them sitting there in the middle of the day. No Sunday morning, no lottery. In these parts, this was like an unexpected eclipse.
I grabbed the four games a few days later. So, I'm officially a PSWii owner. Not sure how I feel.
And then yesterday, Guitar Hero III shows up on my door.

A quiet month games-wise, but I did get this:
Not really a gaming machine, but it does what I need it to do really well (mostly Uni work and web browsing).
Only one game this month:
I did also get PES2008 on the PS3, but took it back for a refund the next day due to it being a half finished mess (which admittedly I might pick up again if they patch it).

I like that! Where might one purchase such a case to hold their games/movies?
You can find that in pretty much any store that sells media or any store like Wallmart or Sears.

Yea, I wanted to op for the coupe, but the dealer informed me not only would there be a three week wait for a black EX-L (I couldn't afford a higher trim as I have bought three cars in the past month), but my girlfriend has been hinting that she wants to start a family. I don't think I would have been gettin any for a while if I got the coupe.

Man she says that now but when you move both seats up, fold the seats forward and squeeze in and do the dirty it'll be great! Actually that does kinda sucky. Good choice!

That's what happens when a hyped console is so scarce that your mind stops functioning when you see one in real life and you buy one on the spot. The sad thing is that if Wii's were in plentiful supply, you'd probably pass it over but since they're supposedly rare you've got this strange urge to grab one before they dissappear again.
