Sonofabitch. I DID get a lot of christmas shopping and shipping done today tho. 90 bucks of shipping, presents for 3 people, but even so, money is required for rent and bills. So needless to say, I will be living light till the 15th when I will repent for overspending and christmas shop in the mouth of madness.

(still need to get the first one)

NO ONE TOLD ME MOST BLURAYS ARE 24 DOLLARS ONLY!!!!!!!

Also got sum drink, and a new cat tower for the cat cause god damn it owned the last one.

Damn double dipping. Jesus fucking christ.

GOD I WANT TO BUY BLU RAYS

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #4 on:** November 30, 2007, 04:29:22 PM »

Its really embarassing how easily I rationalize purchases. The good thing is I live on very few groceries or any of the items most people spend money on, the bad news is well....not sure there is a bad news aside from my self inflicted guilt

hyp · « **Reply #5 on:** November 30, 2007, 04:38:08 PM »

i was on a similar media binge over a year ago when i was being frivolous with my finances. once i started noticing how much shit was left unopened, i realized i had a problem. nowadays i try and watch/listen/complete whatever media it is that i buy before i rationalize buying more. it's tough, i've still got a few things unopened. $:-\$

i just bought meet joe black from bestbuy.com on hd dvd

my biggest problem with HD movies, is that if you miss it on release, good luck finding it a few weeks later (with most titles).

For the pretty graphics.

For the Werner Herzog in teh HD. Also Christian Bale's dong. IN HD.

Ridley Scott in HD. A lesser one of his, but an appetizer for BLADE RUNNER.

I like me some brit gangster movies

I don't think I have any comedies in HD. This is a dip double, btw.

Like a delicious dong in my ass; one of the best scifi flicks evar. IN HD.

The HD-DVDs I bought are exclusives. Multiformat releases I try to get on BD, since my PS3 is more reliable than my 360, and it also has my HDMI port.

What with it being the holidays and all, that rule might disintegrate into taking whatever I could get.

MCD · « **Reply #28 on:** November 30, 2007, 08:59:34 PM »

Did you send your 360 for repair btw? or are you getting another one?

as for multi blu/hd movies, i usually get hd dvd version for HDi contents and knowing they won't fuck with the transfer somehow. (dvd forum spec and mandatory VC1 since day 1)

TVC15 · « **Reply #29 on:** November 30, 2007, 09:00:52 PM »

Nope. I'm not gonna get my 360 fixed. Just gonna buy an HDMI one when this one totally dies.

You bought Rock Band already, TVC? And the PS3 version?

Might as well not buy it since no Evilborians have it on 360.

MCD · « **Reply #32 on:** November 30, 2007, 09:49:13 PM »

demi have Rock Band 360 IIRC.

and TVC's 360 is dying, so he is excused...for now.

You should go to Fry's for Blu-rays. I prefer shopping at BB but Fry's usually has better prices for HD movies. Many of the movies are 5-10 cheaper at Fry's and they also have more discounts every week.

Frys is a bit of a trek from way up here. I was in the area getting gifts for people and my secret santa

Maf, do you mind buying movies online? I usually prefer to pick up movies at B&M stores but Amazon's Blu-ray prices are quite a bit cheaper, plus they've been offering free shipping recently. The free shipping is pretty fast as I got my stuff in a week. Our locations aren't that far apart so it should be pretty quick for you too.

Valcrist · « **Reply #51 on:** December 01, 2007, 04:22:49 AM »

Its interesting, I've never played a game like it before. I've heard that it's pretty close to the tabletop game. It stresses the placement of your characters in cover as well as action point management. I've had fun playing the single player, it is relatively short, but challenging. There is no skirmish mode or anything, so that honestly feels sloppy. I've heard the multiplayer is great fun though. Maybe if people on EB get it, we can play some games.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #52 on:** December 01, 2007, 04:34:18 AM »

Yeah the D&D game and Marvel Card games were too hardcore for me too

I've been thinking about buying BD movies. Kingdom of Heaven is the one I'll probably pickup today.

Also, I bought this a few days ago...

I'm about to finish it, fucken great read. It also makes me want to watch the movie again with this new framework for the world itself (painted by P.D James via this book)

bagofeyes · « **Reply #55 on:** December 01, 2007, 08:40:36 AM »

Very much so. Main characters and the various roles are completely different (except for Theo). The recolection to when his child died was fucken heartbreaking.

The movie did a poor job bringing characters from the book over to the movie. It brought some over, changed others, merged a few, it was bizzare
