 Though I had pretty much gotten rid of all my toys, I was in Akihabara and ended up nabbing two Haruhi's. I haven't built a model in years, so I couldn't help myself. Got Darkness and Stranglehold from EB for $20.00 and finally picked up a copy of Pan's Labyrinth Blu-ray. Such a good film. |

Instead of a moon, it has a heaven and the underworld. Armies that die on earth go to heaven as reserves to attack territories in the underworld. You can fight over crypts that allow armies to come back to earth at temples you control, or altars that give bonuses to Godswars. Armies that die in the underworld go back to your regular reserves. Whenever gods clash in battle, a Godswar must first happen where you would roll three die each and sum the totals of the die numbers along with the number of armies of the attacking and defending territories (ie, roll a 3+4+5, w/ 4 armies = 16 total score). Winning a Godswar kills a god that was on the line, thus killing the ability to use any cards for that god. If you have a God of Death out and it kills an army, they go straight back to their reserve, preventing your enemy from building up reserves for heaven. Or using a God of Sky lets you use an additional die for any Godswars it participates in. God of War lets you win any ties, and God of Magic lets you re-roll any 1's (again only if the god is participating). There are also now plagues. Similar to the nukes in 2210, theyre placed on certain spots of the map. Theyre main difference is that armies can occupy these spots, but half of any invading armies that move into it are automatically killed. With that in mind, a single army could probably hold a plagued territory indefinitely. But yea, pretty cool stuff. Theres even a chance to sink Atlantis, sending all armies on that continent straight to heaven. |

Some stuff I never got around to posting since I moved:
 Metal Gear Solid 4 and the guide. Early bday gifts. Should have an LE and the two Hot Topic shirts coming in soon.  New phone and a case for it. Phone is awesome, small, and holds up to a 4GB card for music and videos. My trusty RAZR finally kicked the bucket so I had to upgrade.   There's two of some of them because one copy is a bday gift for my brother. |

 Got this off Tower.com for £9 shipped to the UK! Extremely quick shipping as well — I only ordered it Wednesday evening. When I opened it up I was a bit worried—disc 5 was loose in the case and looked like it had a couple of really bad scratches. The Blu-Ray coating did its trick though, all it took was a quick wipe and the disc looks as good as new! And while it's probably not of interest, my new Storm iM2400 Case and replacement Chroma5 arrived this morning.  It's huge compared to the old case, and really sturdy. Well worth the cash:  |

I just received this computer case
 The insides are empty for now, but not for long. This components should arrive this week: Processor: Intel Q9450 Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 Memory: 4 Gb DDR2-1066 Power Supply Enermax Infinity 720W Hard Disks: One WD Raptor 150 Gb (old version) and one Hitachi 750 Gb. I have a "old" 8800GTS 640 Mb on my old system (athlon64) that should be enough for now. |

Just got back from a 2 week trip to Japan and Taiwan. I didn't focus too much on game shopping because I just don't have enough time for games anymore, but I did get a few things.
 Karasu for Dreamcast and Dynamite Out by Tokyo Jihen, the best concert DVD I've ever seen.  Awesome USB drive.  It's about the same thickness of a quarter. Tiny!  Uniqlo Metal Gear shirts. Tokyo was in big time MGS mania, I saw promotional material for it constantly. I was thinking about buying the MGS4 PS3 bundle, but I can't justify it right now since I'm so busy. Ironically, if I keep putting it off, I'll just end up buying MGS4 for 360 when it comes out.  Couple more.  Couple MGS artbooks. |

Those Sony Mini Drives are awesome, a bit slow with writing but still great, i've had mine for nearly 2 years. One cool feature, it's water proof, mines been in the washing machine at least 5 times, still works!
I got this in the post the other day, colors look washed out because of my camera. Was only £2 which is about $4.  |

And i also got a Sony photo printer. I hate using Large printers to print photos. more photos:  EDIt i'm a phone-a-holic, but this HTC Diamond is a definite keeper :) ...it simply exceeded my expectations. The HTC Pro is coming out soon, witha full sliding QWERTY and a bigger battery! [img]  [/img]hope you enjoyed my purchased! oh i also got 2 Polarized Ray bans, but i'm not bothered to post them :) check out the HTC Touch Pro, it's even more bad ass than the one i have :) ...but it won't comes out till august. http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_touch_pro-2413.php EDI: can we not post picture from other sites even though we have the same product posted, some times other sites have better pictures and angles to add to the post.

 The controller is a dualshock three; I picked it up with MGS4. I got the Fountainhead because I have been reading Atlas Shrugged, and even though I haven't finished it (I'm about 270 pages in) it has already become my favorite book. |
