My what a bountiful year this was for me...

I don't get many games, as a consequence of not having a job and not having transportation to get games, but on occasion when I have the means and the money, I splurge as much as possible to get thos games that i truly want.

Games I asked for in order of want (thats how i order my christmas lists)

1. Call of Duty 4

2. Orange Box

3. Mass Effect

I thought 3 was a good choice, but hey, thats usually the lucky number anyways. Unfortunately my moms a procrastinator and the games came later than they should have, also, cod4 was sold out at the time, so that was missing...but along with the other two in there, I had a surprise.

On the bottom of the box, underneath all the styrofoam pieces, were 2 copies of Assassins Creed (PS3), I was confused at first, but then figured out what must of happened:

UPS delivery place, holiday rush, a guy has an order for 2 copies of Assassins creed for PS3 for delivery, tosses them in an empty delivery box to pack it later since he's called somewhere or distracted. Another guy needs a box for my games, spots one, and dumps the chips in there without looking and covers the PS3 games. He then puts my 2 games on top along with the sheet listing the box contents, wraps it up, and puts it in for delivery. The first guy returns and can't find the box. Too late, the box is sent immediately to the next phase of delivery (because we had payed for priority shipping) and wants it out as fast as possible.

The End.

After realizing what I have, I decide to trade in both games + vision training game to gamestop for Call of Duty 4, and since I had cash leftover, I decide to pick up a used copy of Call of Duty 2, because it was on sale and I persuaded the clerk to pick a good copy :)

That makes a total of 4 games I got throughout the holidays, I have to say I am pretty pleased with this year so far. Now if only I can just get some time to play my games :P On top of that, my TVs speakers blew out, and it's got no headphone jack either.

Also, my Bioshock replacement figurine and artbook also arrived not too long ago, which was a treat since I completely forgot about it after my dad glued my other figurines arm back on. So now I have 2 Big Daddys and an art book.

I think I got a pretty good deal don't you?
