Here's what I got last week.

Batman AA is awesome, but I will probably end up trading it in towards Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 when I finish it. Don't think I'm going to want to re-play it after it's all over with.

Soul Calibur BD is a great portable rendition of SC4 with some added moves and tweaks, and Melty Blood Actress Again has a bizarre "wacky-Jappy" title, but it plays nicely.

If anyone is actually wondering, that Tenchu game is Tenchu San Portable, a PSP port of Tenchu 3 (based on the XBox version). It's hard to go back and play it post-Tenchu 4.

They think it looks ugly. And it does. But so do all the consoles out, and who gives a shit? I don't buy video game consoles for their looks.

Compaq presario notebook, I haven't had a pc in 4 years... and uh I forget all the stuff I wanted to do with one. Huh.
Maybe Ill check out the hulu or something. Ironically, Ive been using my wii for the past two years and its a gimped experience. Damn thing breaks and right when I send it in for repairs they finally update the opera browser for proper flash support. $:-\$

Oh I downloaded steam and bought Team Fortress 2. I generally despise the pc for gaming but TF2 looks like it has alot of personality. A kind of, whimsy, if you will. Oh shit I need a mic.

Bildi · « **Reply #11 on:** September 01, 2009, 08:00:04 AM »

I owned them all last gen and it was nice but I'm not sure I will this gen. Since the PS3 is a bluray player you can't go too far wrong anyway.

EmCeeGrammar · « **Reply #12 on:** September 01, 2009, 08:03:03 AM »

My tf2 download gets to 96% and then drops down to 2 kbps.

Here in Canada, at least, The Source is run by InterTAN, a Canadian company that CC had bought a while back. Not exactly sure how that works, with the parent company gone.

We don't have The Source in the US, I only reason I know about them is because of the time I've spent in Vancouver, BC.

Me and the girlfriend were taking our one cat to the vet. when we saw this little dude struggling to make friends with the rest of the cats that the vet was stuck with. So we decided there on the spot to take him home.

He doesn't have a name yet, but we call him nom nom. I call him nommers cause he chews all kinds of things. Now he's terrorizing us all with his playful attitude and hunger for human flesh.

Oh you two, I won't let you fight over it. I'm not going to give it away or sell it. I'm planning on keeping it in case I upgrade my PC and end up having to re-activate Windows or something since I've heard that the key from the MSDNAA site only activates 1 time and makes you jump through hoops to re-activate. Sorry guys.
