JUST AN UPDATE...

[soloist]

I am still enjoying Castlevania, but I have
had the opportunity to try out Suikod-
en Tactics, and it pales in compa-
rrison to the antiquated versi-
ons that appeared on the P-
Sone. A simple strategy
title it is; mainly for
novices of the ge-
nre. I hope to
play these
ones so-
on as
we-
ll!






Persona 3: FES (PS2) and The World Begins With You (DS)!




Persona's rear...




The World Ends With You... the back.




Super Mario Bros. Deluxe (GBC)! It took me a loooong time to find this gem!

Posting via Wii...

Got GTA4! Pics coming tomorrow!





So long free time...

[soloist]

And here's the visual representation
of GTA 4 to accompany the te-
xt I posted yesterday (l-
aughs). I am enj-
oying this g-
ame!!




Grand Theft Auto IV (360), front of the outermost box....



Back of the outermost box



The metal case



Here are the contents inside of the metallic box from the Collector's Edition (a duffle bag, an artbook, a CD soundtrack, a key chain, and 2 keys to lock the metal case.



The game's box...



Back of the game's casing...



The back of the soundtrack...

[Diabolique]

Oh I love the metal case and accessories!!!!! That's sharp!

[soloist]

Thank you, Ingrid! I too tend to favor
metallic cases for videogames, e-
especially when embroidery i-
s an additional bonus. I s-
till have not listened t-
o the soundtrack C-
D, but I did sam-
ple many of t-
hem in the
game w-
hile pl-
ayin-
g!



(fun game...)



A-
nd I
still ha-
ve not tri-
ed out the o-
nline compnent.

[soloist]

It has been a while since another
gaming piece has entered my
living space for the time b-
eing (laughs), but I saw
this title and picked i-
t up instantly after
learning there w-
as an art book
included! I h-
ear it hold-
s some d-
egree o-
f valu-
e al-
so.




Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia (PS2)




The rear...




The artbook (left) and the game's casing (right)...




Closer look at the rear...

[soloist]

Just a few more! Super Dodgeball Brawlers
for the DS is what I really wanted, tho-
ough seeing Breath of Fire II avail-
able for cheap along with Myst
III... I could not let them e-
scape me especially con-
sidering they were b-
oth titles that I w-
as searching fo-
r. No more s-
pending u-
ntil ne-
xt m-
ont-
h!




Super Dodgeball Brawlers (DS), Breath of Fire II (GBA) and Myst III (PS2)!

[Roemello]

No more s-
pending u-
ntil ne-
xt m-
ont-
h!

Yeah... that's easy to say when next month is next week... and next week you'll have to go out and grab Ninja Gaiden II

[soloist]

Drat! Good point (laughs)!
This month seemed t-
o be a quick one,
probably bec-
ause of t-
hose tr-
ips t-
o:

[soloist]

Finally!!! The free HD-DVD movies arrived!!!
The only problem is that they sent me M-
ission Impossible III which I did not w-
ant and already owned on Blu-Ray,
so I traded it for two other mo-
vies at one of the local gam-
ing stores for Spiderman
3 and Casino Royale b-
oth in Blu-Ray. Also,
I was able to acq-
uire a Pokemo-
n N64 that h-
ad 2 cont-
rollers!




Here are the free movies!




And the Pokemon themed N64 and instead of Pokemon Snap (ugh!), I was given Pokemon Puzzle League!

[soloist]

Picked this one up yesterd-
ay but was too lazy to p-
ost it thanks to wor-
king much later
than I want-
ed to (la-
ughs)
!!!

L-
et t-
he bo-
dies hit
the floor i-
s probably th-
e best line fitti-
ng for the theme
of this game... or e-
ven "the blood letting."





Ninja Gaiden II...








Something else to take
into consideration
is that this ga-
me will be
hard as
heck
!!

[soloist]

Another one! The is the Incred-
ible Hulk, losely based on t-
he movie to hit theater-
s next week, but mo-
reso the successo-
r of Hulk: Ultim-
ate Destructi-
on (some w-
ould say a
carbon c-
opy bu-
t wit-
h u-
pd-
ated
visuals,
laughs). S-
ince I had al-
ot of fun playin-
g that Hulk game,
I thought that this o-
ne should be just as e-
njoyable if not even mo-
reso, but we shall see ver-
y soon. This version has a p-
layable Red Hulk based on the
comic included for no extra cost.




The Incredible Hulk... the game!




And the back...

[Captain Zap]

What a great selection.

[soloist]

Thanks, Captain Zap! Currently trying
to play the Hulk. When compared
to Hulk Ultimate Destruction
on the PS2, it's not AS g-
reat in some areas i-
n my opinion bec-
ause of certa-
n moves r-
emov-
ed
and f-
aulty ph-
ysics at ti-
mes, but the
moves remove-
d was probably d-
ue to the fact that t-
here were not present
in the new movie to be r-
eleased this week. Still a f-
un game. Still have not gotte-
n too far, so we shall see if my
opinion changes as I progress fur-
ther into it. Story in this one is a bit:

(blah...)

[soloist]

I guess these can
be considered
as birthda-
y pres-
ent-
s.





Presenting Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3) and Heavy Metal (PSP) UMD movie...




Here are all of the contents included for the Limited Edition...




The actual game and the soundtrack/bonus disc...




The back of the actual game's casing...




The rear of Heavy Metal. I always liked the soundtrack of the original Heavy Metal. Many songs were removed from the original due to copyright issues. The sequel was a far cry both in presentation and the soundtrack.
