Yesterday I Bought (a bad pun) for 3!

Look, you clearly don't get the emotional context behind that scene and the subtext that it's trying to portray to the player about Yuna's plight and ultimately Tidus's journey and the fact that it foreshadows the culmination of their overall journey and the fact that it does so i'm bored of typing fake pseudo-intellectual bullshit now

Nah, who am I kidding - that scene is still ridiculous. Cracking game though overall.

I got an update from Amazon that my second big art book purchase - MGS related - has been delayed.

Goes looks at Amazon is it this one


Now I love MGS but I don't actually much MGS related and sort of now because of #FucKonami want a Kojima artbook showing of Snatcher, Policenauts, Zone on the Enders, Tokimeki Memorial etc

That's the one. Amazon have had stock issues since the book released though.

Also, it's more of a Yoji Shinkawa book I want then a Kojima one if you think about it.

Double Post as it's here



Also picked up Criminal Girls on VITA, Okami HD on Xbox One and a PlayStation TV basically means my VITA collection is now like a Switch and I was playing Killzone last night online at it was great.

Of course you picked up two copies of it.

In my news, it seems as though Amazon read this forum as after having a moan about it my MGS artbook turned up! It's a proper beast of a book as well - a proper unit, as they say. Most of the art is annotated in Japanese on the drawings themselves with translated footnotes on each page. It's great!

Some snaps:

Only two! I'm going to get the Japanese collectors version as well in November.

That is rather nice, also I forgot to say I bought Home Land on GameCube, it's a Japanese import of what is the only online title not called Phantasy Star, I've got no idea what it's like playing in 2018 but thought it was a bit different and has some nice history around it.

I bought Shenmue 1 + 2 as well - I've never played them, and thought they'd be worth a bash.

So far, so boring!

Yeah, you won't like them at all, I'd even go as far to say you'll hate it.

Since last post more VITA games, Comics, Avengers: IW in 4K and even another Dreamcast game (13 to go) etc but just got

Love that steelbook, I've pre ordered the standard but tempted to try and upgrade to that.

Was standard, nearly everywhere giving them out for free

I've gone with Game who seem to be charging extra from what I've seen.

Wayne!  Very affectionate little fellow, within minutes he was sleeping on my lap.  Like right now in fact, so this is being typed one-handed!  He meows constantly when left alone, and constantly chirps and purrs around me.  

Oh, and spiderman of course, but lord knows when Wayne will grow beyond the need for constant babysitting long enough for me to play it.  Also another couple of books, Kings of the Wyld which was lighting up the reading circuit last year and Spinning Silver because more Naomi Novrik fantasy is a win.  

The Lady's forced me into becoming a proper cat person, so may I say: n'awwwwwww! He's a little sweetie! I hope he grows up into a big sweetie.

We need more pet photos. around here!

Aw, cute kitty Athers. I miss having a cat, especially when they're smaller and more affectionate.

Yeah, I'm absolutely certain in a few months time I'll look back on him as he is now and reminisce about it. Right now though he's exhausting, either crashing on my lap or requiring rigorous play. Both are rewarding, but also fairly tiring.

And cats are the best! Always been a cat person myself.

I personally look forward to the memes, the best thing about Cats is how weird they can be.

As a dog person, very diplomatically put Smurf.

Long trip to the big city Wells due to M5 being closed for this


12 to go

Ash Ketchum was talking about Pokémon, Mas, not Dreamcast games.

That would be even harder as isn't their now 800+ Pokémon now?

I know I shouldn't say this, but... Dreamcast game boxes look like "pirated versions of Dreamcast game boxes" if you know what I mean.

I got volumes 1 to 14 of the Pokemon Adventures manga. I remember being excited in the UK when i found the first six for a fiver a pop. Here I got them for 100¥ each! That's less than a tenner in sterling, all in!
