Yesterday I was determined to buy a PS3. But I guess I won't be picking up it until the eventual Slim PS3. So here's to Sony for dropping BC. (And yes, I know I played exactly according to their plan...) Now my GF can get her Singstar moments and I can start clearing my neverending and evergrowing PS2 backlog.

I did not know that nor do I particularly care. I prefer to read my books in book form and not in PDF on a screen or printed out on a stack of A4 papers. :)

+ R-Type Dimensions

I've got a shitload of games on order too. Star Ocean: The Last Hope, Street Fighter IV, Deadly Creatures, House of the Dead: Overkill, Dragon Quest V, H.A.W.X., Resident Evil 5, Halo Wars. Exhausting amount of gaming.

And just because I can, a picture of Blue Dragon running on the Panasonic Plasma I purchased a few weeks ago:

Bought the Sony Ericsson Xperia and I'm loving it.





Got Flower, it's pretty good actually.



Went to an Iron Maiden concert, I payed for the regular ticket but they gave me the VIP ticket by mistake, lucky me .



Some Iron Maiden goodies.



Tour Book.



Gears of War T-Shirt.

and finally...





Killzone 2 retail version, I'm going to start playing it tonight.

Replacement for my 2000 VR6 Jetta and I am in love with it.


Picked up a new hardcover copy of Watchmen for my girlfriend to read before the movie comes out. Iron Man is for me since I still have not given up on the Ultimate universe.


Probably my only two games for the month, but two really fun ones.


Looking forward to the concert, but hoping they mostly play their old stuff.

How are those Ultimate Iron Man books? I'm in the mood to read some comics.

My shoes came in today. I was waiting for them to show up so I can post a picture along with the other two things that I bought. iPod Nano 8GB (Yellow, 4G) and "What I Talk About When I Talk About Running" by Haruki Murakami.

They are not bad and do a decent job of setting up Stark in the Ultimate universe. They definitely powered him up a bit from the standard universe, but still a fun read. It should be noted that there is not a ton of action in the first book and I would only recommend them to someone who has already read Ultimates 1 & 2.

There is only one version of the Prima guide and that is it I've seen it in stores. The hard cover version is not going to be coming out.

Sort of LTTP:

Played it before, but only borrowed from friends back in the 90s. First time I've owned it :)

SNES is really turning yellow now :(


A bunch of blue things. I probably won't be dipping into any of these three for a few days.
