    1:18 scale Mars rover Opportunity unfolded from landing and ready to cruise the red planet.

    It's a toy, not a model, but it's surprisingly detailed.

    They need to stop with the 18,000 different Deadpool titles every month, by the time the movie comes out no one will give a shit about him, since the entire Marvel universe will be wearing red & black masks talking like smartasses.

    Blech, I'm very much done with Deadpool.

    I can't wait to read War of the Supermen though. :D

    All my recent pick-ups have been freebies for work, but worth showing stuff off anyhow. Super from Capcom, of course, Sticks from Hori & MadCatz to review, bought the pads and the guide. Prinited off a slightly edited Japanese cover for Super because the EU one sucks. Alan Wake from Microsoft, which came with its own dinky little Alan Wake/Xbox 360 branded torch.

    I just ordered a Happauge HD PVR and my first copy of Sony Vegas for the odious task of vids on You Tube. Will update with pictures when it gets here as that seems the cool thing to do and my copy of Vegas was the cheap pink one and a digital download so no pic.

    what the hell is a Happauge HD PVR

    Recorder for TV output in hi-def

    Used, primarily, for LPs in HD

    Also dude if you're using a hi-def recording device upload to Viddler or something, YT is shit encoding

    Edit: To clarify some more, it's basically a VCR but digital for editing program wizardry/better encoding conversion etc

    I...didn't. I dropped by my local shop on 5/1 but didn't see any freebies. You're seeing tardcore's post which I quoted.

    Wait.. so your camera is also a phone?

    I can see it now....

    *Inside board meeting at Canon Inc.*

    CEO: "All these fancy cell phones are making our low end digital cameras useless! Everyone just uses their phone to take pictures!"
    Grunt: "I know! Why don't we beat them at their own game?"
    CEO: "What do you mean?"

    After cracking my W5's screen, I went searching for a better camera than what I had. I got this at an amazing deal, as it was $350 off AND included the 75-300 lens. This is probably the last picture I'll ever take with the W5 camera.
