This week pick-ups (more still coming):
Some DVDs:
US 360 games: the incredible bad Score Baja 1000 and Gears of War 2 LE (I already had the normal edition, trade it and got a brand new LE)
European 360 games: My Horse and Me 2 (I know...) and How Wheels French Edition
And a bunch of Japanese 360 games: Tetris the Grand Master (used but in great shape), Trusty Bell (also used) and brand new ones: Magna Carta II with pre-order bonus, Operation Darkness, Shikigami no Shiro III (now by 360 shmup collection is almost complete, still missing Shooting Love and the Japanese RFA).
And.... the support, not the wheel (sorry about the mess):
Some digital games:
XBLA Sonic & Knuckes:

I speak Portuguese, not Spanish!
And I know, but I do collect 360 games and I need this on my collection.

Today I finally got the Windows port of Britney's Dance Beat.
I've had it for PS2 and GBA for a few years, but forgot all about this one. The screenshots look pretty different from the awesome PS2 version, but we'll see how it plays.
Very cool. I picked up that shirt too, last Friday night in Atlanta. The Circus rocks. Nice shirt choice too, that black one was the best of the bunch. I really liked the white ringleader one as well, ended up buying that one alongside this one.

Wow, you are a 360 title buying machine. I also finally ordered Shiki III after putting it off for like a year.

Oh, I've never even played either of them. Don't really know. It did put Kuru in for a few minutes and it seemed neater. Who knows, I might not even care for them but reading about the extreme challenge and dynamic ranking sounded cool. I did get to check out Garegga though...I'll probably tackle that one first. I've kinda been playing my Batsugun which is incredibly fun, refreshing, and fast paced with upbeat music. Like a cool bridge title. Elevator Action Returns is in San Francisco right now so it will probably be delivered tomorrow!

I imported it last month and had it boated across the Pacific. Though I've seen a bunch listed recently. Saw another Egret II listed on Craig's List this week but the seller was in one of the southern states...and wanted pick-up.

Yeah kittens rock! I miss my cats as hell, had to put one to sleep and the other was lucky enough to have the vet take it to her home instead, worst day of my life when i had to go through that. If i had to watch the cat that got a new home go to sleep aswell i would have been devastated. Not easy as they were part of our family. My kid became allergic to cats so we had to let them go. But we had the luxury of having them from when they were kittens, such a awsome time it was!
Your cat reminds me of my cat Yoshie that got to live
Also black and white Give it a hug from me.SnowWolf said:
OK, I did a photo for you. Quick and dirty, so don't mind the mess since I've been working on my cabinet. It was quite a chore getting them together. Please, no rousting about excess, I already know. And, yes, It it is too many...maybe I'll take a break next year...likely moving to South Carolina and Texas early next year anyways....kinda why I've been buying a lot lately. I actually forgot how pretty some of these were...my HRAP/VSHG mod from last year is real nice, especially in light of the my recent pick-up of the official stick. That said, it has been a fun two years. Seems to be about thirty. I feel for you MarkMan.
Virtual Cop 2 is a port of the PC port of the Saturn port of the arcade. It's alright if you're desperate for a DC light gun game.Gloomfire said:
Sega GT isn't very good, and with Death Crimson 2 you're better off getting the enhanced update Death Crimson OX. Gigawing is badass, get it.
Redline Racer is pretty naff, they made a much improved version over here called Suzuki Alstare Racing though even that's pretty average.
Getting ready for Forza 3!!!!
Just need somewhere to put it. I live in Portugal and it's really hard to come across something good for that. I can get a wheel stand pro but if i want to use it with the G25/DFGT in the future it doesn't work or the Speed Black but i have read some really bad reviews. Can't get a playseat because of the space either.
Ahh, well...:lol

(screen is from demo version, cbf running benchmark again)
Consider upgrading the CPU and RAM, you ain't using even half of that video card with the current setup.

That wheel support is perfect! Where did you get it? (Beats the folding table I'm currently using.)
Also, that Japanese Magna Carta 2 artwork is soooooo much better than the one they are planning to use for the American release.

I wouldve downloaded Cuban Linx 2 as well, but the amazon price is only $.50 cheaper than a retail copy
Great album, not quite cuban linx 1 which was a all time classic, but close. Hip Hop needs more Raekwons.

Nice!
I bet that took forever to unpack/box back up! I never wanna do anything like that again! haha.
You have one pictured that I never thought about getting, the Wii Neo Stick 2! Exar !!! *choking motion* !
30 is a nice number. I started posting random pics of my stick pickups on my Facebook album... I counted the other day and I'm at 126 (will hit 128 by this weekend X_X ) !

Custom made by a guy here in Brazil, he offers several different models for PC/360/PS3 wheels. It is made of solid wood, and heights a ton (which is good for stability). And it folds too (easily because of the pneumatic connectors) so I can store it in a pratical way. It has special support for the pedals and although I still think they stay too close from you body I still believe this support has the best cost/benefict ratio and works pretty well for my 360.
Madds said:
Strange that they change the US artwork (Europe will be getting the same as the Japanese edition). I will get the US release as well (I already got the Korean and the Japanese ones).

+ a shitload of PSN titles (Siren, Noby Noby Boy, Cuboid, Flower, etc)

It's a very good album. I like how it picks up where the first one left off. My favorite track so far (only listened through once) is Surgical Gloves. That beat is nasty and grimy.

No Wii stick for the Neo Geo? That is one of my favorites...only way I can play Neo Geo on VC. And it was my second stick about two years ago. I'm committed to a few more this year. Twin Stick get! I was supposed to get another Saturn stick in today, from Canada, but it never arrived The small fake Astro City stick....maybe tomorrow. Still looking for the big dual Astro Control Panel...I'd like to buy another arcade monitor and put it on my desk and run all my Saturn shooters through it in tate mode. And want some more Wii Sticks!
