GOT IT. BUT NOT PLAYING IT UNTIL I FINISH TALES OF THE ABYSS. I'm taking forever to finish ToA. It's because my brother is hogging the Ps2 playing Tales of Legendia, Megaten Devil Summoner and Bully at first then .hack//G.U. He was about to get PSU online for pc today but he wanted to finish hack first.... ANNNDDD OMG when I was getting FF12 and the strategy guide, I asked for ToA strategy guide. The guy was like checking it on the computer and said EB doesn't have any. And then he said he would check the back, just to be sure. And YES he came out with ToA guide BUT there is no price on it! It's like, IN FRONT OF MY FACE and he's like "oh, we have it but we can't sell it to you". WTF??? It's not in their database or something.... ughhh. I'll buy it later. I'm really picky, I need to have a perfect file for games I care about. (yeah I know Gamefaqs, but I'm still a strategy guide whore). We keep on buying games and we have no place to put em... I think I'm at 130 Ps2 games...;; All legit ones man... going broke soon xD;;; (FF12 collectors edition + strategy guide + %20 off book = $85+ /swt;;;;)

Watched a movie today~~ SAW III + thoughts on The Prestige

Saw 3:
Hmmm.... I came with low expectations but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be xD I was really happy I watched Saw 1 and 2 first~ you gotta watch those 2 to understand the third movie more. It's not that bad... and I really really liked the idea of (don't highlight if you don't want to know) (Jigsaw was setting up the game for Amanda. He was testing her and in the end she failed. It's cause she's not following the rules he sets... and she actually killed the survivors. She became a murderer... he gave her one last chance and she failed and died because of her actions :x .). A lot of flashbacks referring to Saw 1 and 2. I felt a lot of tension during the parts with the doctor trying to keep Jigsaw alive because if he dies, she dies ^^;; Saw 4 is in the making? Shouldnt Jigsaw be dead by now xD;;;; Anyways I liked Saw 1 the best, very original. If you haven't watched the series yet, watch 1 and then 2. Cause 3 spoils badly for both xD;;

The Prestige: Saw that one last week or so~~~
I liked the movie! Love the preformances. Very cool story with a really weird ending..... I liked the whole concept >__< The reason I wanted to watch this movie because I loved Memento and I liked Batman Begins. It's about 2 rival magicians~ we picked that over the Illusionist or something like that...

Hi XD.Just a random person.

i picked up my ffxii and i found out for some reason the price went down and i got 11 dollers back(i'm in canada).I only bought the regular version since i just wanted to play the game and didnt want anything fancy.But when i saw all the guides and the fact i could of gotten the LE i was just like ARGH need moneys T^T.

I'm almost tempted to get the ffxii but i'm not sure if i really do need it or not.

But i do want to own the TOA guide.I just didnt see it at all in Ebgames D;.

Saw 4 I hear tell is a prequel, so that could still be cool. According to people on the horror community, they originally planned for there to be 5 Saw movies, to tell the whole story. So that's cool, as long as there's a fixed number. XP;;

PS: Are you totally out of the Digimon fandom now? ;-; Is there going to be no more pretty art~?

Ohhh nice to know there will be more Saw xD

haha~ I'm taking a rest from Digimon~ I'm still keeping up with Savers though xD I was waiting for Tales of the Abyss for months so I'm pretty excited about fangirling over that now I have it in my hands xD

*hugs* :D

Yeh, seeing Saw 3 totally ruined Saw 1 and 2 for me which really sux. thats the first time a sequel has ever done that to me and I cant think of another case where something like that could have even happened. Usually writers are pretty good about not making sequels with an expectation that you have seen the previous ones

http://imdb.com/title/tt0468500/


.........oh, and them not having the ToA thing on sale was so retarded. Why even have it in the store and show it to the customer if u cant even sell it???!!! Mine arrived from online order today and its worth every penny...sooooooooo much info

The Prestige was good and all but i cant help but think its a rip off of this. They are making a movie based on the massive 800+ page book. The only real difference between them is magic isnt real in The Prestige ('cept with Tesla...but thats more science than anything). Seriously, its almost the EXACT SAME STORYLINE...two rival magicians that used to be friends....the setting....the plot (to an extent). Even reading a description of the book u can see exactly how similar it is:

see what i mean? Only difference is JS&MrN is a much better story.

Wow the stories are so similar xD
I can't wait for it to become a movie since the stories are similar xD

And YEAH SAW 1 is good :x I wish you saw that one first ;-;
