I don't usually post in these, but I'm in too good of a mood right now not to.

Browsing through my local Gamestop I actually found a copy of Rhapsody, with the manual and OST CD. I originally passed on Rhapsody when it first came out and I've been kicking myself ever since. Now all the NIS games released in the US are mine. Woo.

I also managed to find a copy of Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen and picked up a non-greatest hits edition of Final Fantasy Tactics cheap (for the scratch free case and manual).

Oh, and I bought Legend of the Heroes a few days ago.

To Sigma: Um, yes I do. I like those shows a lot. Oh, there's only a GBA Winx Club game. My mistake.

To IanC: Yes, I think it was necessary. Just in case the battery leaks.

Pump It Up: Exceed for the PS2. Not a bad price I might add.

And now, I will suck for about two weeks. Diagonals were never my strong suit.

I was lucky earlier this month, went looking for the 360 one day but found Animal Crossing: Wild World instead at only one store. So I snagged that.

A couple days after that I checked the Circuit City in-stock page and saw they had the 360 premium. I got that (and I guess they only had two for almost two hours being opened, when I got one, someone got the other, so I guess I'm a trend setter) and I got Call of Duty 2 then. The next day I got Perfect Dark Zero and have been happy ever since.
