2 tickets.

Schools break up on the 20th, so I want to get in and see this without kids around. So fricking stoked. Just hope it isn't the slight let down Prometheus was, but Nolan is consistant whilst Ridley Scott is a mixed bag).

Ahhh, wonderful. Waited so many years to play these. Thanks, Martin. Time to dust the old N64 off!

Been wanting to buy this for a long time .

I bought the new Amazing Spider-Man game for 360. The combat is similar to the Batman games, but the one snag I have is the Web swinging. The webs stick to the sky and you let go automatically when you reach a certain height. But other than that, its really good, plus the story is set after the new film, so its not like the other movie games.

Goodbye forever, C3.

I thought the new SSX was terrible. Fun initially, then really repetitive and lacks any form of style or variation between characters.

It doesn't seem to have much depth, mainly for nostalgic reasons I'm enjoying it so far.

It's the fact that you are racing against ghosts that have a set trick/race score that you can't interact with in anyway. And each time you restart there is no variation.

I guess it's technically a purchase, even though I'm getting it for free...

Thanks to my brother and I a sharing a club nintendo account, we managed to amass enough points to qualify for the platinum gift for a second year in a row!
We picked the cards over the posters because we figured we'll be able to find a way to frame them anyway. I really hope it works out. A set of framed playing cards just sounds cool to me.

Bought a Dreamcast Watch

Ticket to see the Amazing Spiderman last night

Kirby's Dreamland 2 and PunchOut!! on eShop.

A Hori Mini Pad N64, easily the best N64 pad out there. It's also an official Nintendo licensed product.

Hori Mini Pad N64.

Where did you get one, and for how much? I could seriously do with one.

Well... ebay is where I got mine . I took the cheapest I could find on there, which is why it's the lamest colour, but I didn't want it for the collector factor, just for being able to comfortably play my N64 cartridges (without the fear of breaking my old N64 controllers... I got used to them, but gosh are the sticks fragile). The controller + shipping was 64.95 US$.

My next step in trying to get the best out of my N64 cartridges is getting myself a RGB modded N64, but that'll have to wait a bit longer.

Already agree with you on SSX Echoes. It just feels like such a mindless game, it looks pretty exhilarating but for some reason the ease of controls really put a damper on the experience. Very disappointing for a game I loved so much last generation.

Got Hydrophobia on XBL as it was discounted. Tis okay. Looks like it’s running in a pretty low resolution though.

Steam sale is up.

Looking at Bioshock atm.

-Bioshock 2
-Alan Wake
-Alan Wake American Nightmare
-Modern Warfare 3
-Trine 2
-Hard Reset
-Saints Row the Third

Steam Sale.

£25 ar Zavvi at the moment.

I bought.. some piercings.

Mario & Luigi: Bowsers Inside Story was £9.97 in Curry's so i had to get it!

Also got Super Scribblenaughts for £9.99 as well, absolutely loving this! Well worth it!

2 All-Day tickets to the EuroGamer Expo in Earls Court on September 27th.

I'm not sure why I'm going, I have little idea as to what games will be there...

Sega Dreamcast Cuffs

Strat's recommendation plus a Steam sale made me pull the trigger.

You won't regret it Jacob! Especially at Steam Sale prices. Tis a nice change of pace from the usual.

Got Limbo for my iMac on Steam, under £2 so thought I'd see what the fuss was about: gorgeous and stunningly atmospheric so far. I am intrigued.
