I've heard that if you get 100% in any of the 3 categories, you get the 5th level. I got there by getting 100% analyzation in all 4 levels.



Add to my list:

The official Wild 9's strategy guide $3 at Half Price books

Valkyrie Profile Strategy Guide for $ at Half Price Books.

Planning on ordering the following tomorrow:

King of Comedy
The Eye
Inner Senses
Guns and Talks
Beast Cops
Full Time Killer
Freeze Me
Patlabor 1+2
Getter Robo set
His and Her Circumstances Box
Berserk disc 2
Excel Saga disc 2
Super Atragon (finally on dvd...took long enough)
And Ikaruga will be coming soon

Though I'll have to cut down on that list. After that I'll be tapped for a while. I was planning on ordering 16 DVDs just from dddhouse tonight. Thank god I came to my senses before I did that.:)

Later all...

Ikaruga

That's all I need.

King of Comedy
The Eye
Inner Senses
Guns and Talks
Beast Cops
Full Time Killer
Freeze Me

You've been to KFCinema? I'd like to know what you think about these movies, but not here. I have The Eye, I think I'll watch it tonight. Full Time Killer was pretty meh imo.

I picked up Hybrid Heaven for $5.

I only buy DVDs these days...
Roujin Z
Golden Boy 1
Golden Boy 2
Wings Of Honneamise
Love Hina complete series (thank you hong kong)

I also pirated up a copy of Ikaruga to tide me over until my copy arrives...

Speaking of DVDs, here are all of mine:
http://www.dvdprofiler.com/mc.asp?al...pe=O&sc=C&ls=T

I also bought a Hulk Still Rules DVD. Four hours of extras... Heaven...

I have to add that to my wishlist... Hogan is the king. Sure there may be thousands... perhaps millions of wrestlers that are better workers than him ( :) ) But come on... he is Hulk Fucking Hogan!

Exactly. And it even has his legendary training videos with Mean Gene on it. Plus, IT'S FUCKING HOGAN. You gotta love a DVD with Voodoo Child playing in all the menus.

The measure of quality...

Indeed it is.

Aside from Legend of Starfi and Castlevania HOD, I am offically done buying games after this week's insanity. I promise, I swear.

Not quite. Green Beret = Rush'n Attack in the US. Green Beret was what the game was titled in Europe and Japan. I guess the US name change was for that 80s red-scare vibe. :)

My bad, I could have sworn Boot Camp had a name similar to that in Japan though :) I definately played alot of Rush'n Attack both in the arcades and on the NES though :D

Got The Hypnotist yesterday. I was surprised at how good this movie was (two not so good fx are the only negative things about the movie...but one of them is hilarious. I've never seen anyone do THAT to their legs.:D). It's so underrated. I never hear anyone talk about it. I'm very happy with it. Despair: You seen this movie?
