No the only difficulty this time is the 9 year age difference (I am such a dirty old man :devil: ).
Where are you taking her to dinner?
I'm not joking about taking her someplace nice. Even if you don't need to, you're an asshole if you cheap out on the first date when you have so much money.
Space Docking is a HUGE risk.Quote:

Flash bling and then be an asshat and bring her to McDonalds.
As a side note I'll go gay if you want to be my sugar daddy.Quote:

Which is probably the last game I'll do the "free renting" method for. After I finish it I'll either pick up Condemned for good or put all the credit towards Okami.
Rent Condemned, don't buy it. It's a great game, but only worth one play through.
I keep games that are great. Amped and TH might be fun, but they aren't titles that I'll look back on in three years and think "those are the games that made owning the 360 worth it".
If what I've heard about Condmned is true it fits into that category and belongs in a collection. Still, I'll be getting it used so if I'm wrong I'll just return that too.
Anime DVDs:
Fullmetal Alchemist Vol #12

Still pricy for my blood.
I guess I'll be holding out for some sort of cheap complete set deal.
How much did PDS run you, sedition?
Much to my surprised, Wal-Mart finally had Futurama Volume 4 in stock, so I picked that up for $20 instead of any of the Star Wars DVDs or the History of the WWE Championship set.
A good choice.Quote:

I had the extra money laying around and the auction came down from a seller that seemed like he cared about the game but needed to get rid of it.
PDS is a great game. My brother was upset when i sold that one, and he doesn't even play console games.
yes it was.
Japan sucks for not giving us another one.
YOU HEAR THAT JAPAN, YOU SUCK!
I always hear about how high the price on PDS is getting, followed by me considering selling it, followed by me going "who am I kidding I love that game."
You can still buy Talisman?
Talisman is awesome.
You can buy talisman on ebay for tons of money, same goes for the man o war stuff. :( They have both been out of print for years and are considered rare. A used Talisman 2nd edition and the six expansion sets probably fetch around $1000 for the set on ebay. Man o' war is probably equally overpriced per box but then you start looking into putting together fleets and the prices for the models gets ridiculous.
Talisman is really fun, although it is extremely unbalanced. I remember playing deep into the night, and wanting to kill all my friends when I'd roll a 1 and get turned into the Talisman toad.
Finished 42 of the 45 achievements in THAW and returned it for a new copy of this:

Does this have online co-op? If so who wants to co-op with me?

Last Exile Volume 4
Full Metal Alchemist: Conqueror of Shambala
I was considering Basilisk, but I want the one with the collector's box, which Newbury didn't have.
I was at gamestop and I picked up the case and got an itch to play it.Quote:

No noline co-op
Yeah, I really should sell it (and RS and Suikoden II) but I just can't bring myself to. I couldn't even play it if I wanted to because either my Saturn or Saturn memory card is broken.:\Quote:

- Kameo, 360
- 1600 MS points, which I used for SFII (finally) and Scamble, as well as the remaining quests in Oblivion.
- GS discount card
Well, you did try to stab her with a frying pan.Quote:

Cooking Mama, Freedom Wings, TMNT DS, and Shitastic Tournament Paintball for DS. (The last 2 clearanced at CC)
Infected (clearanced at BJs), Loco Roco, THUG, Medievil, and Generations of Chaos (the last three clearanced at TRU)
A batch of CC-clearanced console titles including SW: Republic Commando and Devil Kings.
A big-assed DS carrying case and 4 of the DS lite version of this:
http://astore.amazon.com/thenextleve...937239-6832961
.. to go inside the big case to contain all the games inside.
Some of this stuff was split my fiance and myself, others (like Loco Roco and Cooking Mama) I got. We had to get two copies of Cooking Mama because of the single save file, and I wouldn't be able to play it right now otherwise. :o
How much are these at TRU?Quote:

On topic: I saw Project: Snowblind (PC) at Circuit City with a "3 for $15" sticker on it, so I picked it up along with two girlie games for my daughter under the same promotion. One was Barbie and one was Rugrats. I also bought her a pet simulator for the PC.
I think I've posted long enough on these boards for everyone to realize I read passively.
Cool idea, though. I'll help the 5-6 times a year I actually buy video games.
http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/...ZZZ_SL210_.jpg
Just bought this through the TNL store. It's a new book by Max Brooks, the Zombie Survival Guide guy. Sounds good. Supposedly it will be made into a movie as well.
Sears again...
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y181/xenog/v.jpg http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y181/xenog/v-1.jpg
Metal Gear Acid - $4.97 (should have been $15 but they priced it wrong!)
Pokemon Dash - $6.97
Are you going to different Sears or just back to the same one over and over?
If it's the same one why don't you just pick everything up at the same time?
These were from a different store. I've been to 4 altogether. And I missed a few things the first time I was at 2 stores.
And I'm not posting the stuff I'm buying just to resell.
Picked up Rule of Rose.
Megaman 2 NES - I don't think there are many good NES games left, but I can play this one.
Bucky O'Hare NES - One of the other few good NES games imo.
Wave Race 64 - Handles great, but way too easy for me. Only having 4 racers is lacking. Going to get rid of this.
Mario Kart SNES - Wow. Holy shit, this game sucks. Before going back and playing this again, I would have blindly stated that this was still the best mario kart. So wrong, selling this shit. SNES sucks.
Battle Garegga Saturn - 10/10 of course. Blackheart MK2 is one of the best bosses ever.
DoDonpachi Dai-Ou-Jou PS2 - 10/10
Metal Slug Saturn - Not sure on the port, but the first Metal Slug is the best of what is now a tired series. Even if it is the easiest. Really though, playing Metal Slug for score is lame, so that takes care of that.

OMG, 3 degrees of Romero! Martin is supposed to be Romero's favorite flick of his and Crazies...well, I'm not so sure. Dracula sucks ass but Lugosi rocks and I've been wanting to watch the Spanish version for the longest (plus I want it to complement my Frankenstein collection on the shelf). About 27 bucks for everything.
Yeah, I did my part to support TNL! :tu:
I've always wanted to own this. Konami did wonders on the NES.Quote:

Yea, this game is a mess. Flickery graphics and truly horrible AI kill it. Level design ain't bad (they are fun in Super Circuit and DS) but this engine makes it unplayable today.Quote:

To be honest I've always wanted a copy of the Crazies because of it's cover :(
Got Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat. This game is absolutely awesome. I know there are several TNLers who swing from its nuts, and they are all correct- one of the best games I've ever played.
It's also discontinued, btw, and getting hard to find as a set with the bongos.
there are three Toys r Us stores in my general area. As of a week ago they all had at least ten Jungle Beats with the bongos for $30.
Is that all CCs?
Yes, I ordered this online tho since I cannot find it here in any CCs. Shipping was $2.Quote:

Easily, especially when you consider he could have waited 24 hours and got Okami for "under $50".Quote:

the receipt is longer than my arm, basically traded in my Xbox, GC and PS2 games that I won't ever play again. With the Wii and PS3 coming out I'd rather use the space for the new games. I am done with collecting this crap, rather just keep what I play.Quote:

Today: Okami. I hope. A hojillion stores in 5 square miles and every copy everywhere seems to sell instantaneously.
Got me a cheapass TV tuner card. Second one, actually. The first one came with a resistor fallen off. While it still worked, it was pretty butt in terms of lag, so I decided on another model.
This one is lagless enough to play freaking IIDX on, which is saying something.
