Yesterday I Bought

Stuff that came in the post over the last few days


That's a Amp for my bass also the lead to connect them and a strap turned up,
Scott Pilgrim OST
Dollhouse complete series which is just 2 seasons, due to what I call the summer affect
Seconds the new graphic novel from O'Malley who wrote Scott Pilgrim
Hot Wheels Wii U for £5
Also bought Rogue Legacy on PSN which is cross-buy but playing on PS4 at the moment not VITA
It's not here yet but also ordered Life At Sea also by O'Malley

Quite a broad range of games arrived through my post yesterday:



Nothing special, but surprisingly cheap: £4.10 for that whole lot from Amazon's Warehouse Deals. That's including the delivery. There's some stuff I'm looking forward to playing (Robot Wars in a massive guilty pleasure!)

A new window for the car

Two small baking trays, a new laundry basket and a wallpapering table.

In fairness, the wallpapering table is because I can't find a regular table which fits the long and thin space in my room.

I will read that as "70 years young"

More games for my lovely ps3 to devour.




Shocking to see I actually pre ordered something for once looking at this, I've been playing catch up with everything for so long now. Xillia 2 was a obvious choice, and I've been meaning to check out the zone of the enders games for a while now, and at a mere twenty eight dollars it seemed like a steal.

Not yesterday but from a while ago but just turned up today, 2grundies asked for a picture


Also bought Life at Sea yes a book, Watch Dog's on PS4 for £18 thought it be worth a punt & also Battlefield 4 for £22 which I don't think is bad prices.

Spoiler:

Seconds is a bit like the Scott Pilgrim books (natch) - there's a layer of meaning that I know is there but can't quite figure out. Otherwise, can't wait to get Cap 2 on a bit later!

Finally sent for my asuna knights of the blood figure and high grade unicorn gundam destroy mode model kit that I'd paid for a while back today, also threw in a order with cdjapan (because it's been way too long since I last bought a game soundtrack) for the final falcom zanmai album (falcom field zanmai) and "Zone of the Enders reMIX Edition". I might also buy a game or two in the next day or two so I'll just edit that in if I do.

Mr Kipling Battenberg

On it's 'Best Before' date, so it was down to 50p   

I bloody love Battenberg. An understated king of cakes.

Latest ONM. Nice little read so far.

Seconding. Not had some in ages, delicious and oft overlooked.

Battenberg is the best.

Picked up all the current three volumes of serenity in hardback, did have 1 of them in paperback but sold and all these are the new prints with extra comics etc. Also Dollhouse volume 1 of 1, still surprised this hasn't got a following like wheadons other work.

Do you mean just Dollhouse or both? If it's the former then I can see why as dollhouse wasn't that good compared to his other work.

Just Dollhouse I'm on about. Yeah not as good as his other stuff but even so it's still great the rest is just better.

I couldn't personally get into it, which was a shame as I really like Eliza Dushku.

I see you're in the rant bit again. I also assume you've entered the podcast competition again.   

Yeah Dollhouse was slow, even by Whedon standards. I don't know if I even finished the first season I was so bored.

I'd just about decided to keep watching Dollhouse based on its first season finale. Then they said they weren't going to cancel it, essentially because Joss Whedon fans would get arsey if they did. That's no reason to keep a show going, and the appeal vanished. I've not seen any of the second season.

What was their excuse when it was cancelled then?   

Yeah slow was to begin with but some of the end episodes like the murder one were along with the season finale of one was really good and two showed more of the chaos that would lead up to what would happen in epitaphs. You need to see DVD etc of it as I don't think Epitaphs Vol 1 & 2 were shown on TV even though it's a big part of what would of happened.

@Jas I did ask in the TV thread but as your a fan of Dushku, have you seen Tru Calling.

Also dollhouse season 2 had Summer Glau in it and everything she's in gets cancelled.

So it's only a matter of tie for Arrow then? As Summer is in that now
