So, is that Starscream accurately coloured now? I have the Hasbro classics version, and the colours are nowhere near accurate.

Ravage rocks! Cannot wait for him to hit Canada...

Yes he is pretty much 99% accurate! Hasbro re-released him as part of the Universe line with the right colors this time.

These just came out here so hopefully you will see them soon. If not let me know and I'll be glad to help.

That's the great thing about waiting for systems to die off at retail before jumping in. (I'm not talking about the PSP)

You can grab huge amounts of stuff for pennies on the dollar. Within the next week or so I'll finally have a replacement Xbox and I'm drooling at all the stuff I missed, especially since there's so much quality for so little money.

I think I might just sit out the current/future generations and then buy a fuckton off stuff at the the end. Except for Nintendo. I'm too much of a Nintenho to pass up anything released by them. It's a sickness,I know. :lol

Where from and how much? I have been trawling eBay since the game came out for those bags.

The yellow one was a free pre-order bonus from EB/GS. The red Timbuk2 bag was included in the $130 version of the game for sale on EA's site.

I totally nerdgasmed when I saw the Video Game Art book! AND IT WAS ONLY $4.95!!!! It's pretty meaty--and it has Nocturne and DDS in it! o_O I was not expecting that. It's so cool...and I almost missed it! Oh, man, I'm so glad I stuck around the section I was in and spotted it hiding at the very bottom! WHAT A CRIME! The cover is actually lenticular, so it goes from Snake to Abe from Oddworld (At least, I think that his name). The introduction actually begins with the red Nocturne image of Hitoshura with the Trumpeter, White Rider, etc.

Luis129.jpg


I love general knowledge stuff.

Luis130.jpg


Eeeeek! I nerdgasmed again when I saw this one! The size is inconvenient, but it makes up for it with the way it's structured--and it has the pictures I love as part of the storytelling :D

Luis128.jpg


I'm not very religious, but religion sure is fascinating to me! I probably won't read the Bible for a while, so this could help me out since it's so condensed and what I saw when I flipped through got my attention.

It's been a while since I wanted a new laptop, so I got an ASUS G50VT-x1 (Best Buy had 'em on sale).

asusg50vt-x1015.jpg


It is a flashy laptop heh, but so far I'm pleasantly surprised with the build quality and performance of this babe. The Geforce 9800m gs allows Crysis to run on medium settings (dx9, native res) without drastic hiccups. Pretty impressive for a 1k portable. Why portable? I move around constantly and can't afford having a ginormous rig. Someday, someday.

asusg50vt-x1011.jpg

Games of the year + 360 wireless pad (looove the 360 pad, I don't care what the KB+mouse posse says).

The resolution is the only sidedown (downside, lol). At 1366x768 it is "true" widescreen (16:9) and all recent games play natively but you do lose some screen realstate. Nothing that can't be solved by hooking up an external monitor. Fallout 3 runs like a champ maxed out.
asusg50vt-x1014.jpg


Here's a comparison shot with a 12" ibook g4. Kinda funny :D The asus resembles more a 17 incher, but it is a 15".

I remember playing Vampire Night at a friend's house. I remember the guncon's inaccurate aim, the dullness of gameplay, and the constant desire for HoTD.

Im pretty biased, but I think ASUS generally has pretty nice build qualities.

Im not really one for flashy laptops, so I picked up the V1s myself (a little bit more than a year ago.)

I hope you like it, though ^^

EDIT: Not sure why I put an unhappy face originally, lol

Damn. I'm trying to track down the red one. I thought for sure they would be on ebay by now.

Post more pics please.
Click to expand...

i got the red one from EA when it was bundled with the game for preorder. i actually got the yellow one from Ebay cuz Gamestop.com screwed me over and i didn't get the bag even tho i preordered it the day it was posted on their site. i returned the GS preorder. i hate you Gamestop!

Awesome game.. it really is a shame that MS just let this one die slowly. Should have been a pack in for years to come.

Microsoft didn't; it's in the brazilian Xbox 36o bundle.




Ok, they do let it die.

Christian Bale's terrible Cookie Monster Batman voice is bad enough, I'd hate to hear some 2-Euro an hour voice actor try and do it.

Actually, I think this would be quite awesome.

I need to see if there are any other languages for TDK on the blu.

Not pictured...

-a bunch of HDMI cables for my equipment

-a 4GB Kingston DataTraveler Mini USB stick for the S350

I think that'll be it for me, for the rest of the year... maybe

eBay, I was supposed to get the 2000/2001 jersey, but the dude sent the 1999/2000. Both have the Dreamcast sponsorship.
