Title: It's pay day! What did you buy?
Post by: lordmaji on May 02, 2008, 11:27:43 AM
I'm planning on hitting up the local dork shop and picking up a Deck and a couple booster packs of the MTG Shadowmoor cards.

Also, might end up buying a car. :P

Yesterday, I bought a Thrustmaster T-Wireless controller for the Wii. It's wireless, it doesn't need to be plugged into the Wii Remote, the D-Pad is nice, and it works with GameCube games.  :-*

Today, I'll wing it and see if I can get the GTA4 special edition for the Xbox 360. There are a few Gamestops near me that may have 'em.  :-* My graduation ceremony is today, tho, so I may be unable to go to Liberty City until tomorrow.  :'(

It's based on a series of books, and they didn't do a couple of the final books. There's been talk of them animating the rest of it, but it's never happened.

The big story arc with Youko is totally wrapped up, though.

Well at least there's that. They just started putting out the books, I have volume one. They'll probably at least get those out.

Mook is one of those weird Japanese words. It's like a book/magazine combination.

I have that.  It is pretty bad.  It's interesting how they base off one of the game-only story arcs on Aura Battler Dunbine though (the Guymelefs crossing over into Earth and fighting over Tokyo Tower and stuff).  Comes with a tarot deck too.

Yeah, the animated cutscenes from the game are on the North American DVDs, I already wondered what the background on that was.

what really grabbed me was not only the need for military maneuvering but also the need to maintain political points as well to represent the will of the people.

neat mechanic.

the company (which i've never heard of) has a whole bunch of neat games/scenarios for this set.

there is a bolsheviks of the 1920s (The People's Army) marching on germany.  The untrained and unequipped against the recently broken.

Actually, that's a French company.  :-\

I finished up my graduation ceremonies, and I got a $25 iTunes gift card. I purchased a $25 iTunes gift card on the way there, too. Odd.  :-* I completed my Led Zeppelin collection, got the new Hikaru Utada album, a song off of the new Bjork album, the new Motley Crue single, and a couple of Skynyrd songs. I also got $725 in cash. $25 was spent on iTunes music, as mentioned above. The rest will go towards a PS3 and the X360 GTA4 SE.  :-*

SUCCESS! I found a copy of the X360 GTA4 Special Edition! :hyper

I also got a new copy of Ghost Squad, and took advantage of GS's B2G1 to get Metal Slug Anthology PS2, a Wii Classic Controller for 2-player Virtual Console games, and Xbox Live Arcade Unplugged V1 (the latter being the free one).  :-*

So before I bought it, I had asked the seller of the LE Escaflowne PSX game if it came with the tarot cards and art book. I was hoping to get a yes or no. Here's his response:

Quote
Hello.
It equips it fully with the item that has adhered to limited edition !!!

 ???

I think that's a yes...?
