Topic: Recent purchases

[Abnormal Freak]

I find it fun to post what I've hauled in and also see what others have gotten. Can strike fun conversation from time to time, so this isn't just strictly "post what you got," but possibly discuss it with others, too.

Right now I just bought the Splatterhouse OST from iTunes for five bucks. Sounded like good quality from the samples, and I just love the heck out of that score.

Also got some iPhone games:

Ghosts'n Goblins: Gold Knights
Ghosts'n Goblins: Gold Knights II
Krazy Kart Racing
Predators
Silent Hill: The Escape
Splatterhouse (blooooows... shite port)
Zombie Panic in Wonderland Plus ($12 or something—pretty hefty but gets me everything, including future content, and it's compatible with the iPad which my dad recently got for my mom, so it's fun playing it on that and it looks great)

and also scored these at a local bookstore:





That's right, I bought cartoon demon tentacle porn. Subtitled.

What's even better is the La Blue Girl set is the initial printing, which is the most uncut version available in the States. When Central Park Media did the dub, they edited out some things and also re-released the subs with the same edits while still keeping the "Uncensored" banners slapped on the box art. The DVDs contain the same edits. Bogus. Someone needs to do all this sheeit right on DVD or better yet, Blu-ray. Same with Urotsukidoji (Media Blasters' Blu-ray for the first movie sucks).

An Indy video game store opened close to my home and so I bought an NES since I have some games. But everything is dirt cheap, like barely any NES games over $8. So in the last 2 weeks I got like 10 NES games. Anywho, I bought Startropics, I've always been wanting to play it and never have and for 4 bucks how could I say no? That game is amazing and so much fun, can't believe I've never played it before.

I love collecting old games

Also got some
Krazy Kart Racing

How is Krazy Kart Racing? I've wanted to check it for awhile but haven't. It looks fun

[Abnormal Freak]

It's all right, something fun just to turn on now and then, but not really something I can keep on playing. I suspect the original GBA game is loads better.

The iOS game feels a bit odd since the accelerator's always down. You tilt to steer, and there's a brake. The GBA game looks to be more like Mario Kart with hopping and that.

But for a buck, it's pretty fun.

If you like the Megaman Mega Mix series, then you really need to check out the Giga Mix series. They base the story line off of the Gameboy #5, with the Stardroids. It was a fantastic tie in and great arc allowing enemies to put aside their differences for a moment to join forces. It is just non stop awesome.

[Abnormal Freak]

Will do. I haven't even read any of it yet, but the art looks super cool and that second volume was real cheap.

But yeah, I'm sure I'll pick up Gigamix. Same artist, right?

^ Though this looks like a Collections thread, it is also a recent hauls thread for games, c'mon I can't be the lone dog in that thread a good portion of the time.

Everything non-game wise could be kept here though.

[Abnormal Freak]

I see 'em as different.

In that thread, post pictures of overall game collection to show off.

In this thread, post new findings.

S'kinda how I see it; dunno why game acquirings can't be posted here.

Just an overall, all-encompassing "what did you get?" thread.

Recently got from Amazon:



The Crossed series of comic books started with Garth Ennis of Preacher fame writing and ended up with David Lapham... (not that Lapham isn't good, I just don't dig him as much as Garth - and he's more fixated on gore and porn than story). With the Crossed, it's basically another take on the zombie apocalypse, except that no-one is dead - instead they have some kind of blood-related disease that drives them to do terrible, depraved things to everyone - they still retain their memories and some resemblance of intelligence, but their evil has risen to the surface. Pretty good series.

I've turned that one into pretty much a latest hauls thread, and I also update my collection there, so it's become the game acquisitions thread. Plus it's in the Hardcore Gaming area, the rest of whatever swag you get, music, movies, comics, and the like can be kept here. No one seems to post new collections in that thread, so it became a hauls thread.

Wait, so that is hentai anime in VHS? Not something I would be keeping anywhere around the house.
Only in a digital form, hidden in a secret folder deep inside the hard drive.

Ordered these:



The Reign box set is way too expensive on Amazon Marketplace, but there was a merchant selling the individual DVDs for like $15 so I went for it.

Nerf N-Strike Longstrike CS-6 Blaster Sonic Series

[Abnormal Freak]

AMAZON HAUL

$23.49 with $8 off coupon code—Disney flicks are priced absurdly, so this is actually a low price.

On sale for $68.49 this week. Isn't native HD but will likely be the best the show will ever look (upscaled from PAL masters) unless the original camera negatives are found and the CGI is redone, but I don't see that happening considering it's not a very popular show despite being the most amazing sci-fi show ever made by a million light years.

MAYBE NOW I'LL ACTUALLY READ THE FIRST TWO VOLUMES I OWN LOL
