short on funds you'd love being in my town atm, a video rental store is closing down and they're getting rid of all their stock here, I got 11 ps3 games for 33euros in it... no boxes for them which bugs the shit of my game collecting heart but since I just recently picked up the ps3 getting that amount of games for 3euros a pop was awesome to kick start my collection.

Damn being broke as shit atm but gotta love at least having a shit load of games to play while waiting for moneys.

Good find there dude!  Enjoy your recently expanded collection!

Same here, except most of them closed down a few years ago. :/  And one of the owners was a good friend of mine and he moved out of the state :(

Also, have you tried half.com?  They often have some good finds, like Ebay.

Didn't ever think you were russian from your posts on here that I've read Zappy have to say one thing about Russia atm which is in the news, from the Wiki on the Winter Olympics being held in your country next year "There have been controversies and concerns affecting the upcoming Winter Olympics. The major disputes are with Circassians, environmental and economic issues, lack of political stability and governance and the safety and human rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) athletes, supporters and journalists" it actually put a shiver up my spine to think that there are athletes who spend their life getting ready for this event but now may be put off going because of their sexuality or not compete as well as they could do simply from worry about the angry stance towards them. Really really upsetting....

BUT

LIGHTER NOTE

GAMES

said I'd slap a pic up here of what I got.

the ones with booklets were 3euros and without were 2euros so all games pictured here set me back a total just under 30euros. Even tho I know it's a handful of multiplats and stuff it's just all games I've not played this gen and figured if it's the price of a cup of tea I will probably play them for slightly longer than a Tea would last, Since I've not played one of um any advice on anything good I got would be appreciated.

Oh, I live in Los Angeles - hence my planning of the 1st ever VGCartz E3 meet up earlier this year. (And Microsoft treating me to the Global Media Event, my sometimes inside knowledge of Sony, Activision, Sony's Gaming, etc.)

I'm a blend of many things but not Russian (well perhaps a tiny amount - because of my colouring people often assume I'm Irish actually!).  I know some Russian people, and they are wonderful, and live near a Russian and Gay community, and they work well together.  I also live near an Ethiopian community -  love the food there. Los Angeles has many of little 'pocket' cities within the city.  The most of any place I have ever been.

But the current state of the Russian government, yes, I think they may likely lose the Olympic games because all of those shenanigans.  I didn't realize some of the things till your post.  When you dehumanize people you lose.  It's hard to believe with all the progress in the world they are doing that.  It's so sad.

I think if perhaps Germany had lost the Olympic Games during a certain party's ruling, then perhaps they might not have reelected a certain person, and WW2 and all it's atrocities, might not have happened.  Or if the UK Government had not tortured Alan Turning (because he was gay) and he and Bill Gates to a chance to work together how more amazing the world could be today.

Anyway, happy times, enjoy all your great game finds! 

Ah sorry I had overlooked info regarding your vgchartz E3 meetup, normally I see those things on various sites I visit but yeah the chances of them being anywhere near me here in the south of Ireland are slim and none so I kinda tend not to read about them since it's just saddening to miss out on um all.

Regarding the Winter games btw I seriously doubt that they wont be held in Russia but I would think there will be a lot of regulations from outside Russia put in place to try to make sure they dont for one... arrest all the gay and lesbian athletes, but like I said I do not doubt that some people will not attend these games because of the views of the country holding them and yeah the gaps between 3 winter games is actually 12 years so for someone who competed in the last games but wont get to again until the next one they are going to be completely past their prime, very sad to think people will miss their only chances at Olympic gold because of this.

As for all those new games I got..... spent the weekend playing Super Smash Bros Melee on the GC with mates hah. I have a backlog so shameful at this stage adding 11 more games to it is a drop in an ocean.
