GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Sunday, Sep 27, 2009

So today I went shopping, because I didn't want to do homework.

After being gone for 6 hours, I came back with:

In case if you can't tell by the pictures, I got:

True Tears complete collection (lol)
Viewtiful Joe
Viewtiful Joe 2 (hey, those two were literally dirt cheap)
Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box
Fossil Fighters
Pokemon Diamond
Lunar Dragon Song (yuck)
Theresia (I was so shocked to find it that I literally gasped in the store )

And...

For those of you who frequent GameStop, you know that this is one of their really dumb mascots It was so silly looking that I had to get it. Oh and it talks when you sqeeze its hand. It says three different things:

"Any game with a chainsaw, just plain rocks"
"You know what's awesome? Explosions, that's what"
"______ is overrated" (couldn't figure out the first part)

Its voice is pretty creepy, I think I may have nightmares

And I did no homework this entire weekend. Mission accomplished! (although I will be so screwed tomorrow...)

"Lunar Dragon Song (yuck)"
Yuck is an understatement -.-

Nice purchases I did my homework And I have no doubts that the voice of the mascot is creepy. It looks creepy in the first place

The Lunar SS(Silver Star) series was great. All the Lunar titles for the PSX and PS2 were. What went wrong on the DS with this game I'm not sure. I still have my copy and put a lot of hours into it--only t lose interest in it.

Nice mascot.

Needs more silly hats and TWEWY, seriously, when will you do me the favor of getting it?

Nice purchases though, even when they're obscure games nobody has ever heard of.

@ShadowVari
Yeah, yeah, if it gets way too hard to stomach, I'll just get rid of it somehow

I actually like that dumb bunny, as long as it doesn't make any sounds

At this rate, never I love crushing the hopes and dreams of fanboys
Posted Sep 27, 2009 7:22 pm PT
It hurts me to see that actitude, it really does, but you're the one missing out, so joke's on you!

@luisen123
Worry not, tears are trickling down my face as we speak
Posted Sep 27, 2009 7:27 pm PT
Nice purchases! and the mascot is kinda creepy...
Posted Sep 27, 2009 7:35 pm PT
OMG How much did you spend?! :O
Posted Sep 27, 2009 7:35 pm PT
@FeltLyner
Thanks, and I like stuffed things that look dumb

@Yuna7780
Shh!
Posted Sep 27, 2009 7:38 pm PT
It only takes like 20 hours, so it shouldn't be too bad. Actually, it's a good thing to use if you want to do two things at once (put battle on auto, do something else, come back when the battle is over in 5 min.). That's what I did

It reminds me of a Rabid...but less crazy
Posted Sep 27, 2009 7:44 pm PT
You deserve as much for refusing to play TWEWY!
Posted Sep 27, 2009 8:13 pm PT
I agree with Luis I mean TWEWY is only $15 on amazon.com so just get it
Posted Sep 27, 2009 8:23 pm PT
@Flame_Blade88
I'm in no hurry to get it, it's not like the game is going to be insanely rare
Posted Sep 27, 2009 8:44 pm PT
I WANT THE GAMESTOP MASCOT PLUSHIE. I WILL TRACK ONE DOWN AT GAMESTOP THE NEXT TIME I GO THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Uh, sorry. I've never been able to find Theresia, even though I want it badly. Maybe I should try eBay. Lunar Dragon Song (yuck) XD

@Out-Of-Ammo
I talked to the guy at the counter, and he said the plushie I bought was the only one they had. Must have been some random merchandise GameStop decided to make in limited quantities or something But I hope you find one, and Theresia I was pretty shocked too. I quickly snatched it lol.
Posted Sep 27, 2009 8:49 pm PT
I really wanna play Theresia...

What's True Tears like? I haven't watched it.
Posted Sep 27, 2009 10:25 pm PT
@barkera0
It's a really creepy game and I like it a lot so far.

Hmm I'm only seen 2 episodes of True Tears before, but from what I've seen so far, it's a slice of life anime.
Posted Sep 27, 2009 10:47 pm PT
Great stuff, especially the viewtiful joe games and professor layton
Posted Sep 27, 2009 11:05 pm PT
"Squeeze my hand, I talk!" That's weird on a whole new level!
Posted Sep 28, 2009 1:44 am PT
Other than Fossil Fighters, what an awesome shopping trip! The GameStop bunny is trippy as well..
Posted Sep 28, 2009 3:26 am PT
Wow, you found Theresia, quite nice... the plushie is cutesy, but i preferred your Scrib hat...

About Lunar Dragon Song, i got it thru dark arts, but never played it, so i can't say yuck or no yuck about it... it's hard to imagine that a Lunar game might be yuck, but oh well...
Posted Sep 28, 2009 6:29 am PT
Veiwtiful Joe is amazing enjoy yourself
Posted Sep 28, 2009 6:34 am PT
@Meelkud
Haha, you shouldn't be so open about your dark arts
Posted Sep 28, 2009 7:37 am PT
nice games you got there
Posted Sep 28, 2009 8:09 am PT
C'mon, i think everyone gets to use dark arts...

@Meelkud
Nah, I refuse to use it
Posted Sep 28, 2009 8:17 am PT
That's cause you're lucky and you get to go on shopping trips as successful as the blog mentions... if you were broke like i do, you'd join the force's side...
Posted Sep 28, 2009 8:20 am PT
@Meelkud
That's true, I'm so lucky to have a well-paying job to support my...ventures
Posted Sep 28, 2009 8:24 am PT
I'd do the same if i were you... so seize your opportunity...
Posted Sep 28, 2009 8:30 am PT
LOL, awesome, u might want to consider an 'R4 card'.. *coughs and fades into shadow like a ninjah boi*
Posted Sep 28, 2009 12:32 pm PT
@gormo4
I decided that I don't want one
Posted Sep 28, 2009 1:25 pm PT
True Tears is a romance anime^^

Dayum gurl, yous be a shop-a-holic!
Posted Sep 28, 2009 8:51 pm PT
@Nicasso_
Thanks for your compliment, that I am
Posted Sep 28, 2009 9:05 pm PT
Yeah Viewtiful Joe! Sorry for the late comment.
Posted Sep 29, 2009 12:58 pm PT
We must play pokemon together! (and I may need to borrow a few games XD)
Posted Sep 29, 2009 4:22 pm PT
@Hawkely
Sure thing!
Posted Sep 29, 2009 4:58 pm PT
how far are you into diamond?
Posted Sep 30, 2009 11:57 am PT
@Hawkely
Haven't played yet. Don't have much time lately at all. Don't think I will start any time soon.
Posted Sep 30, 2009 1:34 pm PT
Wow that's quite the shopping trip!
Posted Oct 2, 2009 3:20 am PT
@SchumiF1
Other than Theresia...I think the best purchase was definitely the dumb bunny
Posted Oct 2, 2009 9:02 am PT
Nice purchases, those are great DS games.
Posted Oct 2, 2009 10:06 pm PT
@david_lck
Although the Lunar game, not so much
Posted Oct 3, 2009 2:03 pm PT
OMG, Anime and Game Shopping rocks! And you got an awesome toy, i love stuff like that. I have a total of 8 talking Toys that say and sing stupid, funny things too . Freaky voice hey? Hehe i can imagine that. The sayings are so funny.
The last bulk shopping i did similar too this was a whole heap of nice, pink Hello Kitty stuff, like bags, and pencil cases, and diaries and stuff XD. I can't wait too do some bulk game buying cos recently i can only afford one new game a fortnight . Great job on finding Theresia! Weldone So cool.
Posted Oct 22, 2009 10:08 am PT
Oh yes, i haven't studied in a while but i know what you mean regarding homework, i hated it too :S. But when it's studying something you love it's not so bad but it does get too much sometimes. I love what you're studying by the way!! I private messaged you about it .
Posted Oct 22, 2009 10:12 am PT
@Skye89
Shopping is awesome, but I think it's the process that's the most fun (right up to the point where you have to pay of course )
Although I buy most of my stuff online on eBay or similar sites. Theresia is pretty dark and twisted haha.
Yeah, I read the PM but haven't gotten around to replying yet I do love Japanese and programming, but I really hate studying in general. Lazy lol
Posted Oct 22, 2009 10:25 am PT
@cookie_on_fire
Lol, you said pretty much exactly what i would say XD. Yes the actual 'shopping and collecting' is mostly the funnest bit. I try to buy one new game a fortnight without even finishing games i already have because i really love collecting . Yes paying is a big issue for me, at the moment i'm not working and can't afford much .

No worries about replying super quick, i'm like that also, i know you're busy . I also can't stand studying.

Theresia couldn't possibly be as twisted as Neon Genesis Evangelion?? That was just sick and crazy towards the end. Lol.
Posted Oct 22, 2009 10:48 am PT
@Skye89
Well...I would say there's a good reason that Theresia was rated M. There's quite a lot of blood, and everything from the atmosphere and plot is disturbing. It's almost like a horror game, but not quite. I love it though
Yeah, I'm really bad about finishing games that I buy. Out of almost 200 that I own, I've only finished about 50 at the most
