All joking aside, the one time this month that you SHOULD have called a purchase "beast", and you didn't. This is actually a pretty "solid"(see what I did there, har har) deal, especially if it is complete. I got a copy for $20 months back at the gamestop.com b1g1f glitch(picked up RE5 along with it), but my copy came disc only, still can't complain.

Overall, great pickup fire_thief
 
Yep, not only is it complete, it's like new. Straight from WareHouse Deals. I got lucky with this one, finding it around 1:30 in the morning.

God I hope so, if so he's doing a damn fine job of trolling.
 
I am honestly starting to think that this is either a very clever viral marketing campaign created by Amazon or eBay or a sociological experiment depicting rampant consumerism in America.
 
I just posted a video showing off every game I've got in the mail so far, there's your proof that I'm serious with what I do.
 
Silent Hill - DVD, $3.15 shipped.

In total, I bought 12 games and 1 movie today. I admit it, I have a huge shopping problem. Somebody help me.
 
Your first step is to request an IP ban from CAG so you can stop posting retarded "pick-ups".

Next thing to do is go apartment hunting (preferably somewhere in northern GA. [Marietta or Acworth would better fit you]) and move out of mom and dads place to get a taste of what providing for yourself is really like.

Third would be to broaden your listening horizon. That "filth" you listen to is hindering your ability to be articulate. (FYI - Not all rap is filth, just the artists you're jocking)
 
I hate to be rude, but Fire_Thief do you think you could just edit your posts so you don't have multiple consecutive pick-up posts in a day?
 
Sure, I can do that.

*Edit* Army of Darkness - DVD, $5.64 shipped.

My Evil Dead Trilogy is finally complete.

I looked at some clips of Radiant Silvergun on YouTube. Can't believe it goes for $150-$200 used. I'm guessing a sealed copy (if there were any available) would fetch at least double that.

It's like Blast Factor with a FMV background.

Very nice ;)

:applause:

Got some good games on the cheap and picked up SSF4 at $13 off MSRP and picked up Red Dead Redemption which looks pretty awesome.
 
Let's see...

Ordered a SECOND COPY of Warcraft III Battle Chest, because it went for sale for $20 on Amazon. Me being as obsessive as I am, I had to have a new copy. I will attempt to sell the used one I bought. Probably not gonna happen. Yeah, spent 15 bucks LAST NIGHT on a used copy. I will now try to sell that one. Probably not gonna happen though.

Run Like Hell - Xbox, New - $11

Driver 3 - Xbox, New - $4

Jet Moto 3 - PS1, $6

World War II Combat Road to Berlin - Xbox, New - $5

Sky Crawlers Innocent Aces - Wii, New - $10

Contemplating buying Conker on Xbox for $27... But I've spent so much. Really want it though. Also want the Diabo Battle Chest for 20 bucks.

Just a couple of pick-ups lately.

SSFIV - Courtesy of Casual Gamers Weekly

IMG_0695.jpg

PS3 - $50 - Brought it on Craigslist as broken. Got it up and running in about an hour and a half. No problems so far...
 
Dynasty Warriors 2 - PS2, $8

Diablo Battle Chest - $20

I have a serious spending addiction. I gotta get my bank account straight tomorrow. Gonna transfer $500 from graduation money, as well as $420 paycheck on Tuesday. That will fix me... Then i will promptly spend $300, lmao.

But then... maybe I can stop the spending? Idk...
 
You seriously should stop for a couple weeks at least... seems to be getting out of hand. And it's not even like you're buying amazing or must play shit, you're buying mostly mediocre last gen titles that you're probably not even gonna play (I mean seriously there's no way you're playing all this shit). Why not just stop buying for a few weeks or so AT LEAST and play some of the shit you have already...?
 
I want to, I really do... But it's really hard for me. I see that 1 click order button and I just can't resist. It's really the death of me. I need help. I must stop myself. On top of this, I'm putting off my math to buy games. I'm 3 weeks behind and have 2 days to catch up and answer 150 questions, over material I haven't even read. God help me now.
