The Purchases Thread

I've got an XBox 360. Can't afford games for it though. Only got 2. Sprucey, if you like shooters, get Gears of War. You need it.

I've played the demo of BioShock. It's way up there on my list.

 

[Spruce Goose]

Yeah I've played through Gears. Was awesome.
BioShock is the awesome though... You get special Jedi like powers.

 

[phlogiston]

Want lots of games Got no money Maiden tours aren't helping in that respect.

Warlock - Triumph And Agony

Brilliant album!

Dio - Evil Or Divine live CD+DVD

Nice, I got Holy Diver DVD a couple of weeks back, that was pretty awesome but I hear Dio had a cold - it sure sounded like it, still awesome though

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Yeah I heard Dio wasn't on top of his game that night, so I opted for the other CD+DVD set, and it was cheaper than both the individual CD or DVD.

I have been after Triumph And Agony on CD for many years and never seen it. I bought it from a department store in Berlin.

 

[Spiff]

I haven't watched the whole thing but Bruce's intros to his promos on the Anthology DVD are worth the price alone.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Have really wanted it since it came out and finally saw it cheaper than retail on ebay. Can't wait.

 

[Winmar]

I got the Holy Diver DVD today. $10 at JB. Also got Sebastian Bach - Forever Wild for the same price.

Awesome album.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

My signed copy of Iced Earth - Framing Armageddon just turned up in the mail, and I just put it on. Nice intro.

[Goreripper]

[Bucko]

hopfully so

 

[Blitzkrieg]

My signed copy of Iced Earth - Framing Armageddon just turned up in the mail, and I just put it on. Nice intro.

This album is better than I was expecting after The Glorious Burden (which I like) and the re-recording of the original Something Wicked songs (which I am not so keen on). I have only had two listens so far, but it seems like the most original thing the band has done in a long time, not all by numbers stuff like a lot of their material. I can't help but wonder how it would have sounded with Matt, as I am a much bigger fan of his vocals than Rippers, but Ripper does do a good job. For anyone with some interest left in the band, check it out.

I can hear Spawny howling in dismay from here.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

The dude hasn't been online in months, I want to know what he thinks of it (and the Maiden tour for that matter).
