General / Re: Konami vs. Capcom, Who Do You Prefer?

Capcom,  even though I tend to complain and hate them.  One of the main things I collect and look for is Monster Hunter related items. My favorite Capcom franchise. I have every American release and most of the art books (full art books few item guides, just the Bradys from 2004 and the MH3G Bible JP).  There is a huge market in Japan but not so much in the western world so I tend to have to import my items which gets very costly (amazon.co.jp is about 40 to ship to the US, 3-5 days. I tend to order a lot if I find this is the cheapest way at the time. Tends to be cheaper than Amazon and ebay.

Right now I've been slowly collecting the japanese mang/novels done by Ryuuta Fuse. His work on Monster Hunter for Capcom is the best and the most faithful to the franchise. You can really tell he knows the subject.  The Monster Hunter Orage on the other hand... the only series to get translated and released to the west, is a shadow of what Ryuuta has done.

tldr rant: Capcom! Bring more Monster Hunter to the west!

Modern Video Games / Dark Souls II Collector's Edition

Off by a few days but I just learned of it from collectorsedition.org

Loved the series so far so I will be picking one up as soon as I can.  I am a bit of a sucker for collector's editions to games I like and a collector of game related art books.

Got my GTAV Collectors Edition today from UPS. Sadly a corner is bumped in and there's even a small scratch on the steelbook. =(

This reveal is what really sold it for me. My friends and I are veterans of old RTW APB and plan to spend a lot of time just goofing off in the multiplayer for this as it will fill the hole that APB:R can't fill.

Already have my collectors edition ordered.
