Just snagged Dead Island: Game of the Year Edition for $4.99. Digital, but considering the retail version uses Steam, it's all the same

Nice! I have been meaning to try this one for awhile. Feel free to post some impressions when you start to play it!

Got my Hyperdimension Neptunia: Victory ("Iris Hearts You") Giclee in yesterday's mail...Yay!

Strange that I ordered this one *after* "Peer Pressure"...yet...it arrived 1st?!

Kinda' a pain in the ass - the three I already have hung-up (iirc) are 26" (Height) -but- this one looks to be 28" - 29"
 

Now...I'll definitely have to wait for Peer Pressure to arrive before figuring-out/hanging up all 5 of 'em (I know, I know...1st world problems; to be sure:)

Apparently, I broke 3,000 posts!

I wonder how many that number would be, if we hadn't lost the totals when we switched forums software.

Time for rankings higher than "Hero Member", mayhaps?

I'd actually borrowed the PS3 version from someone awhile back, and found I liked it a fair bit. Reminds me a little bit of Left 4 Dead meets Borderlands meets Dead Rising 2 - very large, open areas to explore, with a lot of little sidequests and characters sprinkled throughout the landscape, and a pretty nice system for creating custom weapons. I can see it maybe getting a touch repetitive, but it hits that "just one more quest... " nerve nicely.

I didn't pay attention to the pre-release hype, and never really do with games, so I don't know what people were complaining about. It's a fun game!

The deal I found is on Amazon, and appears to still be active - http://www.amazon.com/Dead-Island-Game-Edition-Online/dp/B008NAYASM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1365690876&sr=8-1&keywords=dead+island. Just open the games library after purchasing, activate the serial key in Steam, and off you go

...*AND*...

Fed-Ex was just here & dropped-off my "Peer Pressure" Giclee; YAY!...Again!

The only "problem" (read: well, *consideration*, really) is that the 3 I aleady had are all the exact same size, "Iris Hearts You" is longer & narrower than all 4 of the others, and, "Peer Pressure"...is a bit shorter & wider than all 4 of my other ones 

Hmmn...May need to re-arrange them all when I hang the 2 new ones up (not *complaining*, mind you - I actually looking forward to having the time to do all of this (probably not until around Mon, or so)...

I got home this afternoon, and my wife greets me with "I got you something!".  Turns out she dropped $30 on this


If you can't see the two on the left, that's Wonderboy and Ghostbusters.

Sweet! Those are some good games. I am a huge wonder boy fan. If you can snag wonder boy 3, do it! Dragon's trap is amazing. Also, monster world 4 is available on PSN/XBLA and is just gorgeous.

Also, a suggestion, Outrun (and almost every other SMS racing game) suffers from the crippling defect of having to press up and down to shift. There is a good pedal that makes it fantastic to play. I highly recommend.

That is freaking awesome! You've got a great wife! And $30 for all that is a steal!
