Went thrift shopping today.

*  Jurassic Park Sega CD Complete excellent condition  3.99

And I finally picked up one of these bad boys  My first 360!!!!  So happy!!

Just picked up the (sealed) LE for Killer is Dead (for the PS3).

I was shocked that one of my 2 local GS stores:

a). actually *had* one,

b). hadn't 'gutted' it & that the whole thing was still sealed & minty, and

c). I was pleasantly surprised when/that it wrung-up @ $19.99 (because, I thought that the price on the shelf said $39.99) 

Awesome pick up! I actually completely forgot about that game... I'm always late to the party lol

Same here!

While there, I realized that I'd missed out on the PS3 Tales of Symphonia LE -and- that it's too late too get anything but the standard edition now

Recently bought Mario Party Island Tour and Super Mario 3D World. I also got a haul of game manuals in the mail.

First physical game of the year!
It's Nightmare Busters, that new SNES game by Super Fighter Team... Pretty sure I ordered this about 2 years ago, good to finally have it. Hopefully it's fun.

Wait, we also had a collector's edition available for Tales of Symphonia?! I thought it was Japan only! If I had known, I'd have preordered the crap out of it.

Sounds like you're late to the party too! Welcome to the late party, it's great here. But only if you think terrible is actually great.

I picked all of these up for dirt freaking cheap at GameStop today, when I was just browsing:

-AC/DC Rock Band Track Pack (PS2)
-Duke Nukem Forever (XBox 360)
-Spartan: Total Warrior (PS2)

I'm the most excited about Spartan: Total Warrior, because it's by Creative Assembly and published by Sega, the same as one of my favorite overlooked bargain-bin games: Viking Battle For Asgard.

I picked these beauties up for $40 today.

The PS2/3/360 games are all complete and were $3 each
Simcity was $5 and is mint
Lastly Risk was also $3

Yeah, I'm not real upset about missing out on the Symphonia LE because it was pretty 'figurine-heavy' (I'm more of an OST + art book kind of guy) -and- iirc, it was >$100 for the LE.

I actually cancelled my 2 pre-ordered So Park LE's & decided to just get myself a standard version; since - after giving it some thought, I realized that there just wasn't anything that came with the LE that I really wanted enough to justify the LE's price tag of $85 each.

@Bobster & Karyann:

(re: "being late to the party") -

It's really not that big of a deal...since a party can't really start until *I* get there anyways!

[burningdoom]

Damn, I have a problem, lol. I just picked up these two:



And now I'm feeling the itch for a new Castlevania game.

I love both figurines and soundtracks, so the cute figurines were totally a plus for me, especially since there aren't many in limited editions. It's really a pity that soundtracks aren't usually sold as a "standalone" in the west, though... Damn do I LOVE listening to video games soundtracks  I would seriously buy a lot of them if only I had the chance to. And I don't mean buying them on itunes, because first of all I hate itunes with a passion, and second, as a collector, I always prefer physical copies. I really wish they would bring us more soundtracks.
