So I can watch my DirecTV while away from home and on my iPod
. Most importantly Sunday Ticket! Need to set up my old router as an access point because there's no wifi included so I'll have to wait a bit. Should have it set up before the NFL season kicks off. woot woot.

Can't really take a picture of it without too much editing, but my Discover Card just arrived. I'm trying to build up good credit, but it is hard when you only have one card. I thought getting a second card with no annual fee and never using it could help me somewhat.
It's not like you can do much with a 500 USD credit limit on the Discover anyways. It's going in the freezer in a block of ice, just like my passport and my social security card.

Yep, looks like the bundled game has the new art, while the regular retail version has the old PS3 design. I thought it might have reversible cover art, but the back side is of the Zeon squadron mobile suits.

Well the reason I got it is because I just got denied by Chase for a PlayStation card for not having enough cards. I have great credit too, but I fear it may be TOO good. I've never owed the card's bank a single cent because I treat it like cash.DoctorWho said:
This is my 2nd card. The one I've had for a year so far is a Visa. Before that, I used nothing but Visa debit for everything.littleorphanfunk said:

This is good. When your limit rises in the coming year or two then your ratio will rise and you will have more money to play with month-to-month. Keep doing that and you should be good in two to three years.
Discover is a good one to have because you will get a small kick-back at the end of the year. Just use it for things like gas, phone bill, etc.

After taking Wii, I felt it was time to take Xbox 360 to play all the exclusives I've lost these years.
So... I took the Xbox 360 Brazilian Edition (Jasper 60Gb console, remote controller, HDMI cable and two games - Too Human and PGR4) with Halo 3 (in Brazilian Portuguese! Amazing!).
I also ordered Gears of War and Dead Rising (this one I'm very curious about! I almost bought the 360 a couple of years ago just because this game), which are on their way to my home.
Ok... now I have all the current generation family!
Great to read that! Now pick a character on Too Human and let's play the coop campaign - I gotta find the perfect excuse to start from scratch with another character class

First pick-up post! I hope you like it because I've been waiting 24 hours to rip the packaging off and play them because I normally don't have a camera. Ordered them for $50 total, excluding shipping/handling, from an Amazon deal.

Got it! I just activated it, and they say I can choose a free card design to replace my generic card that came in. Seriously though, cashback sounds sweet, and the APR turned out to be identically to my current card, so I think I might end up switch to using the discover as my main. Anyone know if paypal takes it?Yes Boss! said:

Picked up the Wii Game of the Year at GameStop
Then went to Best Buy in the same parking lot and bought Pom Poko & Porco Ross on DVD for $16.99 each. Normally they are $23.99...so I was saving 7 bucks on each =D
I ventured into the Blu Ray section now that I have a PS3...and was thinking about The Sky Crawlers, but then I saw the $30 price tag and changed my mind. >>;

Wow!
I am really envy Yes Boss recent pick-ups. Not only he is getting into Cave PCB but bought an incredibly Saturn lot. I am resisting myshelf to get a Saturn. I have being thinking in getting one for a while, but I do not have the proper space to play it right now (maybe in 2-3 months). Besides I am married and I want a new PS3 slim this year, my "boss" will never allow this....
I see that you got some pricey games in that lot. May I ask how much for the whole bundle?

$810 for the lot of nine games delivered...or about $90 a title. Radiant Silvergun skews the average a bit. Going by recent auctions that closed on the last two months I'd say you could get the lot for around $650 but I went with a Tokyo-based seller I've dealt with previously so knew everything would be mint with all those strips and registration cards. Saturn system was $290 delivered but I wanted new and unused (I can deal with used games if they come from a collector but used systems I find difficult to stomach). Used Japanese Saturns seem to go for about $50 to $80, I think.
Altogether not badly priced and about what I would have paid to import the titles back in the mid ninties anyways.
just bought this yesterday.

The regular plastic version was the first watch I ever owned, I was at Market city in Sydney and I saw it and had to grab it, $AU48. Fake gold Baby!
I will have a MUCH bigger addition for the thread next week.

Breakfast So Cal style. I'm taking the year off from meat but this is the second exception I've made (September, ok, I'll probably eat a bit of meat over the holidays).
A straight-up Double Double, a Cheeseburger Animal Style, some fries. Clamato bud and Modelo in a can (the best, mind you) help wash it down.
Solid $10 spent, yo. Sometimes useful to take advantage of my location. 2500 Calories, GET!

What does that Bud Clamato taste like?
I've always been incredibly scared of it.

Well,
Do the full, as opposed to the light...and make sure it is the second or third beer you drink. If you are sober and down it, it is fucking TERRIBLE. After a few drinks it is heavenly. I work at a C-Store and this one sells incredibly well amongst our hispanic customers...good enough for me! And let it warm up a bit...chilled out of the fridge it is brutal...think of it as a nice trappist Belgian Ale and treat it similarly.

I've been on a bit of a Megaman binge this month to complete my PAL collection:
NTSC Version of Network Transmission and PAL Megaman X Command Mission for the Gamecube
X2 and X3 were the hardest to track down complete. X3 itself cost me a small fortune to get but was well worth it
