Well, The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya is supposedly being made into a movie by Kodakawa now and is slated for 2010. Hopefully it will make up for Endless Eight. :(
It better, after Bamboo Rhapsody and seeing the series progress further into the realm of the novels with John Smith and the time travel elements in action Endless Eight was a move that made me fall into a maddening rage from which I only recovered eight weeks later when The Sigh Of Haruhi started up.

My friend's brother gave me a Halo Limited Edition X-Box with four controllers and Halo 2... for free! Apparently Gamestop was only going to give him a few bucks for it so he just called me up and gave it to me instead.

That HAS to be the find of the day. :)

I think I want to mod it...

Yup, GS stopped taking in Xbox trades around May this year.

If you want to mod it then I recommend picking up a cheap copy of Splinter Cell to do the softmod trick.

Will do! A quick Google search just gave me a few guides on how to do it. Thanks! :)

I was at my uncle's house for a few days just chilling and I was in the basement and stumbeled upon a few games that were on the floor and in a old tv stand. I found Yoshi's Cookie, Madden '95 for SNES(has a price tag on the back from a pawn shop and says "$20" LOL AT PAYING $20 FOR THIS!), and 101 dalmations for GBC. Nothing major but free is free and I didn't have Yoshi's Cookie. :D

Now that is a great price for Super Star, I believe $20 + is the current going rate for most copies.

That's just a freaking rip-off in my opinion.

Yea, that store always is. They know what games are worth, and then mark them up $10 or so. Even the shovelware NES carts are like $5. They have a good price on consoles tho. Recently I've been taking a liking to the CD/Game exchange. Nothing is over $5 there. Got some good stuff - Mega Man 3, Metal Gear, Ninja Gaiden, Metroid - lotta the classics for cheap.
