Is that the one you said you would never get because it's to expencive?

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and... X7? That's a weird package for sure :p

Once you get done buying all the main stuff you want, you end up buying the stuff that was "too expensive" before which turns into "What the hell else do I have to spend my money on?" Ive picked up a few sealed DW items recently cause my main part of the collection was complete myself!

No, that's Rockman Strategy for PC (and it has a questionable origin anyhow)

But yeah, I'm at the point in my collection where I'm buying the "What the hell else do I have to spend my money on?" stuff

Just picked up Monster World IV on PSN, pretty fun to far.

And I also added Scott on my PSN friend list, though I can't really add that to my collection

Gotta catch 'em all!

You know you might be buying too much on the internet if you receive two different packages addressed to you and have no idea what might be in either of them.

I got some shoes I'd ordered and had so thoroughly forgotten about this one, I almost thought it was a belated bday gift:

I purchased it last week from someone in Canada... memory must be goin'.
But then again... IT'S LIKE EVERY DAY IS CHRISTMAS.

@desocietas: I LOVE that game. Although I liked the navigation in 2 better (you can skip the beginnings of songs where you don't play, like in Elite Beat Agents), the track listing on this one is great.

If you're planning on unlocking all the difficulty levels and everything, I hope you like Ready Steady Go...I love that song, but I bet I heard it 200 times by the time I actually got through it on the final difficulty level. That's what's kept me from finishing 2...I don't like the ending song as well and it's hard to punch through it time and time again.

I've been kicking myself for years for not buying it on Amazon when it was available.  But I finally found someone selling it for under $25, so that was enough for me.  I played the first song and so far so good.  If anything, I know nothing about the Japanese language so am just guessing the at what's written on the screen.

More "Recently Purchased" than "Recently Added":

Several pre-ordered PS3 copies of the Atelier Mereru LE were delayed by one week...but should be arriving relatively soon, and, yesterday, I pre-ordered a few of the upcoming PS3 versions of Record of Agarest War 2 LE's.

The Threads of Fate soundtrack arrived today from Soera, sweetness.

Also, I bought a Wireless N adapter for my 360, so I could take it with me to my folks house. (all because I am hooked on Borderlands again)

If you are around Saturday night and dont mind running with a 16 lowbie, I would dust off my copy. I loved it, but never could find anyone to play with.

I'm not 100% sure what my plan is for Saturday yet. I'm level 45 tho, so it may make things way too easy for you, ha.
