I'm glad so many people are picking up Saboteur now that it's cheap. It's well worth the 20 bucks you'll spend.
It's been an absolute blast so far. My only complaint so far is that I couldn't steal a SdKfz. 222 ( or some model of German armored car). That was offset by virtual boobies.
I remember the game being very stingy and restrictive on the tanks you are allowed to steal. I think there has to be someone in it in order to steal it, or something.
I have a white Classic Controller Pro on the way from Amazon. I didn't realize the sticks were farther apart now. And is the d-pad.....bigger? Or something? It looks different somehow. How do you like the new shoulder buttons?
I love the parallel analog sticks, and honestly, though I prefer the PS3's sticks over the 360's, I love Nintendo's GC/Wii analog sticks to death, even moreso

I love the dualshock, probably one of my favorite contoller designs ever, it's part of the reason I love the Classic Controller Pro, only with better analog sticks and d pad.
But then, noone has been able to mimic the fantastic way Nintendo does d pads.
I cannot, for the life of me, convince my right thumb that it is capable of using an analog stick. Or convince my brain that it is capable of independently controlling two thumbs at once (also why I fail so hard at Beat Hazard until I've played it for about 20 minutes).

I'll try to post my purchases tonight or tomorrow...I have to get a battery for my camera.
Couldn't ignore the PSP Library any longer with stuff like MGS: Peace Walker and Persona 3 Portable coming.
Playing the Reach beta made me want to go and play through Halo 3, as I have yet to actually play it >.> The Points card is for Slash and RainbowDespair's Breath of Death Game + ME2 DLC.

Yes, but it was either buy a second copy for thirty bucks or let my little bro sell it to a local used games store. Clearly, I made the right call.
Also (not pictured) finally got myself a new computer. I doubt I'll be playing games on it - it's the cheapest one they had - but it can actually play YouTube and GameTrailers videos, which makes it a huge step up from my last PC. ...which is old enough to drive now, I think.
Still, nine hundred bucks... makes me feel more comfy with being a console gamer, as a general rule.

So... what's the deal with VC2's release date/preorder goodies?
Also: yay, finally got a copy of Half Life!
I bought the PC version ages ago but the Steam client crippled my computer and I could never get the damn thing to run. Very pleased to find this. Disc is mint, too.

So... what's the deal with VC2's release date/preorder goodies?
Firstly you should check out the VC thread because I updated it *crossedarms*
Secondly, whilst digging around for a release date to add to the OP, I found out that:
1) Wikipedia does not have a release date (Summer 2010)
2) The official Sega website does not have a release date
3) IGN and Gamespot do (August 31, 2010)
Thirdly, VC2 had approximately 1, 257, 972 preorder bonus characters in Japan:
1) Selvaria
2) Normal and anime Welkin and Alicia
3) Ramal Valt (some guy from the anime)
4) Mintz and Julius (prinicipal characters in yaoi manga...no I'm not kidding)
5) Isara, Maximillian, Faldio
6) Emilia from Phantasy Star Portable 2
Fourthly, people who preordered in Japan got a previous game plot summary narrated by Princess Cordelia and a "newsletter" that featured stuff like an interview with Selvaria

Kind of sad that it has more depth than the PS3 game. D3 doesn't have the Prinny Court, and a wrecked ability system.
Still good, but nothing like it could have been.
The game that completed my collection of Zelda. Though I don't plan to open it since I can't read enough Japanese yet.
I sometimes go overboard
It's an electronic receipt but it's the most epic one I've had in a while

Might have to go through the incredibly unwieldy process of moving pictures to the internet from my phone for this.
My Classic Controller Pro came in today. It came with some kind of Dinosaur game. I might have to try that out later.
The jury's still out on whether or not I like the new one more compared to the old model.

I'm pretty heavily thinking...
Thinking about getting a Nook this weekend
I will absolutely post pictures if I do
On one hand the nook is completely awesome and I totally want one.
On the other hand I absolutely love having my bookshelves full of hardcover books.

I don't!
This is why I am getting one, I'm seriously out of space and when DVDs and books start competing for shelf space, books are going to lose.
Hardcovers are nice, but too expensive, and with most paperbacks I find the print too tiny. Customizable font size just makes more sense to me.
To be fair, while I'm not a fan of the parallel analog sticks at least the thing has a decent set of handles on it.
And a decent D-Pad.

Woah, how the hell have you preordered a game with no firm release date?
Also did you get a preorder bonus and/or was there an option for an SE
