I still gots more presents to open, but so far I've gotten a pretty good haul...
-Urban Yeti (GBA, MINT, sadly game only :( )
-PS2 black mem. card
-Adventures of Cookie & Cream (PS2, complete, NOT re-realesed version! ;))
-Fantavision (PS2, complete, NOT re-realesed version! ;))
Oh, and I got a bunch of misc. stuff; peel-on tatoos (really cool!!!), candy, a new, rather cheap bath robe w/ slippers, etc; but the one that really takes the cake, (besides the gaming stuff), is a D&D basic game set, plus ALL THREE RULEBOOKS!!! (okay, so I already had the monster manual vr.3.0, but the others were honest to goodness, straight out-of storage, vr.3.5 guides!!! :D :D :D :D :D)
-thanks santa!

Well the gift I got has some meaning.
As some of you know, I was trying to have a complete star wars saga on vhs. i ran into the dilemma of one of the movies (ep 3) being in pal.
for x-mas, i actually got all 6 star wars movies on dvd.
I got the 1st 3 movies (1-3), and then I got the full screen boxed set of 4-6. I wanted this fullscreen set just for the fact that the spines match the spines of 1-3.
I also got a couple n-gage games new and sealed from my roomate:
Red Faction
Call of Duty
Bleetness

My Mom called me from Ohio (I'm in Florida) at the last minute (Dec. 24th) and asked if there was anything else she could get me to fill in the gaps.
I told her about the Toys R' Us $9.99 sale and read her off games to look for. She called me up and said the shelves at TRU were bare and she only found 1 game for my brother.
Flash foward to last night, my parents arrive in Florida with their car PACKED full. My wife and I start to help unload an I noticed lots of DVD sized presents......HAPPY!
My wife (also a gamer) and I opened them to find all this greatness:
Doom 3 XB
Resident Evil 4 GC
Conker: Live and Reloaded XB
Kirby : Nightmare in dreamland GBA
Xenosaga II PS2
Killzone PS2
Lost in Blue DS
Bomberman DS
Yoshi's Touch & Go DS
Ren & Stimpy Season 1 DVD
Magic Knight Rayearth DVD
Magic Knight Rayearth 2 DVD
Tenchi Muyo GXP DVD (with extra box to hold rest of series)
Darkstalkers PSP
Dead to Rights PSP
& TONS of other stuff including several comic books I needed to complete my sets.
ULTIMATE NERD CHRISTMAS!!!!
I'm usually not that blessed, but I guess my parents felt generous. Boy am I happy! :D :D

Well, hit a few pawn shops tonight and one had a great PSX haul:
- Symphony of the Night (non-gh)
- Raystorm
- Ray Crisis
- Kartia: Word of Fate
All complete and in great shape, for $40. Considering I would have probably payed nearly that much for the SotN, I was a happy boy. :)
And after finding Chaos Field at Gamestop last night, it's gonna be a good, long weekend of shmupping.
