So I'm getting Baroque and Metal Gear Solid: Essential Collection on March 19.

On a related note, I'm really beginning to hate Gamestop. I might begin doing most of my shopping at Gamecrazy instead.

I don't even think we have Gamestop over here. Which is weird, since I think it's the biggest one in the US? Our biggest is um...well it's just called 'GAME', but it's technically a merger between a chain of stores called GAME, and another chain called Electronics Boutique. Not sure if either of those exist there...

Nice, though. I kind of want to give Baroque a look. I've heard mixed things, but it just looks so...unique, really.

I deal with that every day. You get used to it.

Yes, but elmdor's on the other end of it

Was so pissed off when they merged EB had my N64 in for repair, and when they merged they 'lost' the papers saying it was mine. Cunts.

Only those two games?

Well, four considering the the MGS collection comes with all 3 games.(And it's the Director Cut versions of the last 2.)
It would be 3, but Mana Khemia got pushed back until the March 31st. (So I'll get it on April 1st.)

What the...? That's completely awful. You didn't even get any compensation or anything? Bleh...

I always liked EB better, actually. The staff in GAME had that whole...artifical friendliness, 'try to make you buy a bunch of stuff you don't really want' thing going on. At least here...

So four games you'll never finish

Electronics Boutique was bought out by GameStop over here a couple of years ago. I've never heard of GAME though.

I know.

Hey, I finished MGS2.

People like when you're polite? Hm, I cursed some old man that tried to steal the elevator from me. I was, in my defence, carrying all the mail and 20 huge freaking IKEA catalogues. What the hell?

Well, I don't actually do the sorting, rather the.. stapling? I don't know what to call it. The mail is sorted through postnumbers (zipcodes?), but I have to put it up in shelves before I bundle it up.. or something.

Working at a callcenter, which was cool until very recently. During the first months I was just informing people of stuff, and offering them free TV channels, now I'm supposed to sell shit (I get wage though, no provision). So, yeah, gonna quit. I only work a couple of hours a week though.

Yeah, I'd rather just forget about it.

Well...I like people who are polite. I don't speak for 'people', by any means.

Ahh, right, I see. That still sounds like a bit of a pain, but not quite so demoralising as what my brother went through. He was just...dead, for the entirety of the time he spent there. I'm actually...really, really relieved that he quit.

Bleh, I don't think I'd be too comfortable trying to sell people junk either. I can just about handle standing at a counter and processing the stuff that I know people want, and have picked of their own accord, but... It just goes against my morals to bother people over the phone to buy something they probably don't want. I admire your integrity.

Hey, I finished MGS2.

But not 3?

You're missing out.

AWESOME ENDING SEQUENCES.

Seriously.

Ahaha. I knew it would be said, but it still made me laugh.

*looks guiltily around*

Hey, I bought it, at least. I'm supporting the cause. But somehow I've just never found time... One of these days, maybe. I really love both the first two.

Seriously.

I'll finish some stuff on the week I have off from school (so 11 days altogether.)

[Ivolt]

Oh right, Arcana Heart comes out on April 8th.

I'll pre-order that next month.
