same rules as last time. for those of you who weren't there, I'll repeat them.
pick any game I own that I have not reviewed, I'll play it from either where I left off or from start to finish then review it.

as for other things, I have a top 100 reviewers emblem, I'm very proud of that. I have a bad taste emblem, that doesn't matter to me at all since it only counts gamespot reviewed games, that only aplies to less then 8% of my collection.... I have a popular emblem, I'm pretty sure I used to have convivial and neiborly... my seriuos collector emblem keeps poping in and out along with my hella old school one...

I reviewed a few games in the last few days they are found here...

in personal news, I will have less hours at work while my manager lets the seasonal use whats left of their hours. 2 packages meant for me are still in transit somewhere. I plan on buying chaos field and maybe lego football mania (UK import GBA game) in the next few days (CF=$16 LFM=$9) we will see what else happens....

this is what I got or gave myself.
this is zoomed out a little too far.....

I did have time to finish playing Lupin the 3rd last night and review it and CIV II both on PS and PC so from there, I guess I'll do a you pick I play.... but for now....

also, while going through my games yesterday I noticed a few I haddn't added..... it mightve been that the DB wasn't online or whatever, I added CIV2, Tsutongi:Atonment and I'll see if there is more..... I know there will be.....

I figured out how not to track every game I add, GO ME!

I'd like to say thank you to those of you who have supported me and/or posted in this area of my life I hope to return the favor someday, weather it be this year (pyro, snpr, 8bit, DPC, M&K) or some other year... in short, I'd like to wish you all a happy new year since I had a misrible christmas.

LOL UPDATE AS OF 3:24 PM EST: my IGN collection is at 1337! LOL I'm hardcore elite now! anyway back to my day of sulking alone....

quick update before I respond to FD, I just recieved an XMAS card from that guy I mentioned a few months ago known as my father.... it contained an $800.00 gift card to simon mall..... talk about trying to make up for years of neglect........

1 more update, maybe the last..... I have 2 friends coming over, and I'm working tomorrow... we'll see how this goes.....

ok, I know my plan was to just list the rare buys, but today that plan got bashed in the face, first, we sold a game on the planed list, second we got down to a last copy of a game I was waitig for the last copy of.....

so, after work today (I stayed late again) I grabbed 1 off my list and 1 that I wanted..

Disaster Report (PS2) mint & complete **mid level rare** love this game for 3 reasons, 1. it is by agetec - 2. it's got great gameplay - 3. the girl on the cover always makes me want to watch Smallville....

Ace Combat Advance (GBA) new & sealed-mint *low level rare, hard to find mint though*  that makes it offical, I have all Ace Combat games

total was $17.60

a final note, I called a store right next to the one I'm being transfered to, they have almost every ngage game, so first day out there will be interesting.... Jan 2nd

so, with XMAS 2 days away, I'll most likly be posting nothing because I'm not getting anything(unless pyros package arrives)....... anywho, happy holidays!

I hate christmas season..... strictly from a retail point of view, christmas is idiotic, boondocks said it right, I am downloading that episode from TIVO, I can't wait to take the main points from it and send it out to anyone and everyone possible, maybe in chain letter format, people are still dumb enough to believe microsoft is tracking emails and they will recieve 50 bucks right?
anyway, I picked up "Invasion From Beyond" (PS1) this obscure game surfaced in 1998 and was a rip off of 1950's sci fi movies and was likly an insperation for "destroy all humans" except instead of making fun of them it actually plays out like one...... I had my hands on one last year but lost it.... now I'm keeping it.

total was $1.77 but I also picked up most of the remaining XMAS presents for my so called family.....

Brave Fencer Musashi - PS1 - mint & complete original version **rareish RPG like action game with steriotype rediculus characters by square**


Strikers 1945 - PS1 - mint & complete ATLUS made for saturn traslated to PS1 by agetec, terriffic horri shooter ***ultra rare***

forgot to say total = $19.60
