not bad though.

I bought a shop vac, an air hose, some quick-connects, and some spray paint today. too lazy to find/take pics lol.

I bought a couch. This is so awesome. (Most Korean apartments don't come with couches). I laid out and watched Kingdom of Heaven director's cut while sipping on a screwdriver. So much better than lying in bed and having to strain my neck to keep my head elevated.

Did you know it's available on Xbox Live? $29.99 direct download; takes around 4.3GB of space IIRC.

Used? Refurbished? I'm actually looking to get one for my dad, but seeing as it's a 360 I'm wary of anything that isn't fresh out of the box

duckman2000 · « **Reply #376 on:** February 25, 2010, 01:31:17 PM »

Open box, or something. It has internal memory, is that the latest revision?

OptimoPeach · « **Reply #377 on:** February 25, 2010, 01:34:40 PM »

Depends how much. They've been shipping with 512mb internal since last summer, and before that they were coming with 256mb internal since about the fall or winter prior

I would never buy anything digital. Always always disc only. You can easily get SF4 for sub-20 if you look.

Yeah, I don't want to get a retail game on XBL.

I kind of want to buy the Jill Valentine costume for my XBL account so I can just make my avatar Jill Valentine. Would it be wrong to spend 320 moon dollars on it?

I really wanna do it, because if I try to make an avatar that looks like me, it just looks so plain and boring.

I've spent $2 on worse things, but then again, this about as bad as it gets. Hmm. I'm terrible at spending money.

You need a PC with capture card/TV tuner or one of those XRGB/VGA box type converters.

Which is only 40 bones at Amazon for the time being.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #398 on:** February 25, 2010, 08:32:02 PM »

I eyed that collection, but I could do without the second and fourth sequel. Needless plastic wasted!

Disposable White Guy bought Blade Runner and Akira on Blu-ray, the latter we watched on his 1080p TV. It looks really nice, but I still don't understand a fucking thing about that movie.

Bebpo · « **Reply #399 on:** February 25, 2010, 08:33:31 PM »

North by Northwest is such a nice transfer. Good pick!

Thinking about getting The Dark Crystal BD. Never seen before because furries creep me out. But I do love me some Jim Henson.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #400 on:** February 25, 2010, 08:37:22 PM »

Awesome movie, vintage Henson.

I'm probably going to go back next week and pick up Predator or Unbreakable if a copy is floating around. Both are on my list.

I'm a collection whore. I also own the Schumacher Batmans, the Matrix sequels, Ocean's 12 (I thought 13 was good), all 11 Star Trek movies, X-Men 3 AND Wolverine, The Mummy 2 & 3, Spider-Man 3, Terminator 3, and (for reasons I wouldn't even try to defend) all 6 Saw movies. It's definitely a disease.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #402 on:** February 25, 2010, 08:45:56 PM »

Yuck. I refuse to buy the Spider-Man set, even though I really want the first two on Blu-ray. I held out for that nice collector's edition of the original Matrix flick, so I won't be soured with the sequels.

I read Predator has a really really weak transfer. Otherwise I would pick it up since the movie is awesome.

Ok, decided to grab The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, and The Princess Bride on Amazon for my blu-ray 80s fantasy flashback. Only one I saw as a kid was Labyrinth (a bunch of times) and all I remember was David Bowie was zomg in it.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #412 on:** February 25, 2010, 09:59:40 PM »

Anyone know what the transfer on The Princess Bride is like? I almost bit the bullet on that one, since I have a lot of fond childhood memories with that flick. I think I saw it in theaters twice.

I take their reviews with a grain of salt though. They tend to be a little generous, but the pics are usually fairly representative.

Personally I go by the highdefdigest reviews most of the time but for some reason they didn't review The Princess Bride
