You're going to be pissed at me for finding this, but a few months ago I found Zone of the Enders 2 for $5.
That's what the Canadian EBs have it listed for - but none in my city have a copy. I wonder, if I call every EB in Canada, would they send it out to a local store?
Assuming I could find a copy, of course.
Good luck finding one with it at that price.
Then again i did find a release (black label) copy of Final Fantasy VII for $10 in one of their bargain bins last year.
Yeah...2D animation on Blu-ray is really iffy for me to even notice the difference
Tbh getting it on BR had nothing to do with wanting a super-sharp picture. It was five bucks more than the DVD version and you get more episodes per disc.
No watching on computer though. Not unless you have a bluray drive.
Still though, whatever, Samurai Champloo is awesome. I need to watch that through again.
The only part I didn't care for about Star Ocean was the grinding. I know most RPG's have some, but this is 'well sorry you hafta grind here, else miss trophies and such'.
Running through areas killing the same monsters repeatedly trying to gain 1-3% per kill so you can 'research' them got pretty old, and some monsters only appear in very limited areas, for a limited part of the storyline, so if you see something new, you'd better start camping that spot.
Other than that, I thought it was a pretty fun game.

I didn't bother with researching. I just went about my business with the story, so it didn't bug me too much.

But... TROPHIES MAN, TROPHIES
It was achievements back when I first bought it on 360.
I guess technically I picked up Edgeworth and Bayonetta. Doing some real introspection about Goozex trade ins and waiting to get games now that the site is getting more popular and is constantly getting slammed on release night.
Steven Wilson Cover Versions box set: I had the first 5 of his cover version discs, so I picked up the 6th which came with a nifty box set to house them all in.
Heavy Rain and Bioshock 2: Both count as my birthday presents. Bioshock 2 was from my fiance and Heavy Rain was mostly from my parents (they gave me 50 bucks)
NIN The Slip and The Mars Volta Bedlamn in Goliath: Picked these up for cheap at Half-Price books.
Edit: Forgot to picture my other CD that I got this month. I ordered No-Man's Wherever there is Light single when I ordered the Cover Version box set, but it came way earlier since CV was delayed.
bam, not Amazon but Deepdiscount. I've gotten some good deals from them (Firefly on bluray for $30).
I bought the 4 volumes on DVD a few months ago for like, 40 bucks total. What's in the Bender head collection besides a head that will take up space? I already have a Homer head that is also a radio.
Missing -> Bayonetta 360 and Darksiders 360. People borrow stuff.
What's that third item on the top-right corner? The something-Monkey thing?
And nice statue, its pretty awesome. If I weren't already 30 (jesus christmas) I'd have these kind of things all over my house.
It was hard to pass up AC1 in a non-Greatest-Hit case... I hate those damn things. Throws the whole visual of the collection.
The Monkey thing is the entire Monkey Magic series box set. It's pretty awesome, but I wishit were on Blu Ray instead.
The statues are a collection of the classic sonic series, I'm planning to pick all three up -> Sonic Tails and Knuckles only. I'm a pretty old school, die hard Sonic fanboy, but not in the furry creepy way or the "Gee I'll buy every sonic game out there" type of way. I have a few statues only to make my room less dull and looming over the game collection where it actually is relevant. I'd never collect those half-nude manga ones like some people do, more ones of my favourite series -> Sonic, Ninja Gaiden, Mass Effect, Fallout Devil May Cry and Halo.
I'll agree on the classic hits cases, I fucking hate them, but I've had to get one before -> Perfect Dark, mainly because I have a collectors edition that is signed by the entire Rare staff and I don't want to open the case. Sticks out like a hooker in a church.
Customer traded it in and I snatched it up right away. Faceplate Screen is scratched but besides that its in pretty decent condition. Also Grabbed FFVAdvance so I would have something to play in it.
Since we don't get a ton of replies a month (by virtue of not being GAF) do you think we should just make this a general G&T Pick-Up thread? Just a suggestion to Maximumzero.

Hmm. Well, perhaps we could break it up quarterly? I.E.: February-April, May-July, August-November, December-January?
Samurai Champloo is nuts on DVD. It's like, 3 episodes a disc.
Sheesh. If there isn't a reasonable box set, you're better off watching it on the official Funimation website, for free even. Dub and sub videos available for that particular series.
Just bought the PA book today. Silly DC, why does it take forever for you to put out your TPBs? And technically I bought my nook a while back, but it arrived in February.

Speed Racer on blu-ray?
Fuck yes.
Exactly; I went in with mediocre expectations, and was totally blown away. And the visuals on blu-ray just made me love blu-ray even more.
Pitch-perfect casting
Love Matthew Fox as Racer X
I enjoy it.

It's a JRPG, most are the same thing re-hashed anyhow, but overall its fun to play and the story is kind of unique.
Anyhow, all I really got this month was Miles Edgeworth and No More Heroes 2.

Depends on the kind of animation.

Watching Futurama DVDs with the framerate smoothing of an HTDV really changes the experience.
True that. I think Amazon had the whole series in the big Bender-head for $80 the other day, let me see if I can find the link.

I just went to a local mom & pop used game store, and walked out with Assassin's Creed 1 & 2 for $40 combined.

You can probably find third-party faceplates on ebay still.

Pretty much anything in the last 3-4 months that has been on the 'weekly sale' on the 360, I've already owned.
Another sweet deal was Tamagotchi Party On for the Wii for 5 bucks. It's a game that's bad but in a funny way so it's worth it.

As a little boy I used to sit down and watch monkey with a staff my dad made for me and make the woosh woosh woosh sound when he casts spells.
I want that damn box set now. I wonder if I can get it here.

I guess
I'm looking forward to the sixth collected edition in June a hell of a lot more, though
I picked it up for $79.95 AUS ( 71.6723 USD, 47.3005 GBP) Look around and you might find it.
