I've had this since Bioshock 2 came out, but had framed the album without intending to take the shrinkwrap off. Now that I am fully convinced that these LEs were in no way limited, I've opened up the vinyl and have been listening to it this evening.
It's surprisingly high-quality vinyl. I had forgotten how absolutely fantastic the Bioshock soundtrack is, it's certainly one of my favorite game scores of all time. Christ, I wish more game soundtracks were available on vinyl! Also note that it's the score from the first game, not the second.
Hm, not that I've noticed. I was out of the room on a few tracks though, I'll relisten and report back on that. Was there a different Bioshock vinyl I'm not aware of?
It's...a game for the system that doesn't come in until tomorrow!
At least it has gorgeous box art!
Been wanting to play this for a long time now, I was going to wait for the HD release on XBLA/PSN, but I figured hey, $15, might as well just give it a shot now.

You will not be disappointed. The game is even prettier.
All this arrived today! The negative impressions of Brutal Legend (short, pseudo RTS etc.) are positives in my book, it sounded like a great little game for the weekend. Clash of Heroes will be my go-to portable game for quite a while.
I really need to pick up Space Invaders Extreme 2. I was trying to play the knockoff that's on the iPhone last night and it just made me miss SIE that much more.

Yeah the DS is the way to go for SIE. I did not like the 360 and PSP versions either because of the inferior music.

Without boring you guys with the details, these are my other pickups for November, not counting DLC and digital downloads. I got great deals on every single one of these.

Are you talking about Infinity Gene, or something else? Because I haven't played the iPhone version, but I think the PS3 version of Infinity Gene is awesome. I say this as someone who has and likes the DS Space Invaders Extreme games. I love the soundtrack to Infinity Gene, and also how it's full of clever little references to other shootemups.

Infinity Gene. The iPhone is just not cut out to play games that aren't Angry birds, it seems.
I know a lot of people love Tricky more but it didn't allow you to board down the whole mountain.
My brother's the big SSX nut, and he says... lemmie look it up... yeah On Tour. He says On Tour is better than Tricky and 3. I just love Tricky 'cause he and I played it so much together when we were younger.
Oh man, Kaseius. Are you one of those CAG flippers that got everyone in the thread raging?
At first, I was just ordering one for me, then I saw that the PS3 version was better, then I realized I could make some money from it so I ordered a second. Only got two copies total, but I really could've ordered so many more than that. I'm on CAG, but don't post over there.

Rent's Amazon Black Friday Adventure
So Black Friday hit me fairly hard because, well, Amazon exists
So
I picked some stuff up
Not everything arrived, but a significant amount and I'm going to show it off
So Amazon had some sweet deals on stuff, so here's what I picked up:
All these movies/tv shows are on blu ray and were 10 bucks or less. Everyone hopefully took advantage of the first 3 seasons of Mad Men being 10 bucks on amazon, because seriously holy shit what a deal
Resonance of Fate, 30 bucks
but who gives a shit about that, it's about this motherfucker:
See Amazon was having a lightning deal on this from 4: 30 to 8: 30 am, where this (which is normally 200 bucks, at least) was 125 dollars. That's 80 bucks of fucking savings, i had to jump on that ship asap. No tax, too, which is like another 15 bucks
So anyways this shit is fucking rad as fuck check this shit out
the back of the box
Open it up, and look inside:
Holy shit this is so fucking rad goddamn
Let's look inside, shall we
Complete episode guide and map
DHARMA light, it's on my car key now
ankh and letter and light in the top right hand corner
Serket game board
Oh yeah, here's the complete series dvd case. 36 discs all in some really, really sweet binding
See? look at how sweet that binding is
Aaaand the compartments on the box opened up. As you can see, there's game pieces and shit in the sides
But let's check out the bottom piece again, shall we?
Looks completely normal to me. Hmm...wonder what happens if we turn the lights off and shine our DHARMA light at iWHOASHIT
It's a motherfucking secret fucking message! Holy shit!
Decode that shit...and...the map? Huh?
Oh that map
Well...looks totally normal to me WHOA WHAT THE FUCK IT ROTATES
HOLY SHIT GUYS
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS
:!:
:!::!::!::!::!:
YES THIS IS THE BEST SPECIAL EDITION OF ANYTHING I'VE EVER BOUGHT HOLY SHIT
My first cell phone. Absolutely loving everything about it. So far its blowing my experiences with iOS out of the water, (Not surprising, iOS feels a little stale at this point :P)
Man, buying souvenirs at Walt Disney World is freakin' hard. You have to weigh usefulness versus not going broke. Makes buying stuff super hard for yourself. (Though I had no trouble buying a number of things for the girlfriend.)
I did buy three shirts though.
And a plush steamboat willie mickey. Looked way too cool to pass up.
Many thanks to Kirbith for the heads up on the Season 6 box at Target. $13. Now if I can just get someone to accept the Goozex trade for my previous set.
Also this Mario thing that alot of you seem to have.
Rent, the only anime worth watching is Cowboy Bebop. Which is certainly not spelled "Azumanga Daioh". Also, told you the Lost Blu-ray set is the best damn thing ever.
Anyways
BLACK FRIDAY - THE HAUL
PICTURED
- Red Nintendo Wii, includes a Wii remote with built-in Motion Plus, New Super Mario Bros. Wii and Wii Sports (pffft)
- Bayonetta for 360. I got a hankering to play it the other day which was coincidentally when I saw it on sale.
- Final Fantasy XIII, which I hated on the first go-round, but hey, for $15 I may as well give it another shot when I'm really bored
- Donkey Kong Country Returns
- Metroid: Other M
- Wii Classic Controller Plus
- Muramasa: The Demon Blade
- The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, this better be a sweet read, the movie was great
- iPhone 3GS, because I wanted an upgrade from my old 3G but I like the way the 3GS looks better than the 4
Not pictured is a Nyko Charge Station because, I mean, why advertise that? And also season three of Dexter, which comes tomorrow.
Paranoia Agent (by Satoshi Kon, the dude who made Perfect Blue & Paprika
Samurai Champloo (just watch the first episode, then decide if it's worth your time
and
yes, Cowboy Bebop.
Also Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is pretty damn awesome. I intend to own that, one day.
Samurai Champloo is pretty damn fantastic! Just got my boyfriend to watch his first full anime series with me, Cowboy Bebop of course. And it was fantastic as always.
Also, I wish [as] would bring back new episodes of FMA: Brotherhood already, it's been quite a while since they went on hiatus with it. I started reading the manga a while back (up to volume 18 now), and I'm past the anime at this point. But I would definitely pick up a box set of the show once all the episodes are out.

[EDIT] Also, Twin Peaks is fantastic.

Yeah the DS is the way to go for SIE. I did not like the 360 and PSP versions either because of the inferior music.
Which, with some other games, I traded in for these and about 50$ credit left over:
And these all came today/yesterday:
Sands of Destruction - 5$ after the 5$ giftcard.
Ratchet and Clank - 14.99$
DW7 - About 23$ and is in fantastic condition, complete copy

Anyway, I happen to get around opening my copy of Enslaved this weekend. It's an alright game that's marred by a lame ass ending.

but that's it
FF14: ARR
Hell no.
I wouldn't even put them in my top 10 really.
Anyway, on stuff I got, finally got to buy some games.
Altogether <$40, though I guess recettear and portal doesn't count. Also mount and blade was gifted by lowlylowlycook.
ATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATATA
You're already dead.
But seriously, Yotsuba& is pretty great.
Haruhi is what's up, haters get out.
Zero those shirts are rad, especially the gray one. The plush is cool too, but to me it looks huge. Might just be the picture.

Haibane renmei for me is the better Yoshotoshi ABe involved porject but they're both great.
Along with those 2 my top 5 would be gunslinger girl, glass mask, nodame cantibile, flcl and hellsing ultimate.
