Um, i did... above. ;) But i guess i should've started a new thread for it. But then, knowing my luck, i still wouldn't have had any responses. :frown:

See, if Sam were Gabriel and Max Grace I would have certainly commented on your purchase... but I have a strict policy of not saying anything about Lucas and related subjects :P

Jokes aside, the statue seems really well done and the poster behind it is really unsettling :D

Well that goes without saying. :D It'd be great if there was a Gabriel and Grace statue available. I'd certainly purchase it and you'd be the first to know from me. ;)

Thanks. :) I wondered if someone was going to comment on that picture. :P It's a limited screenprint of Eli from the Swedish vampire movie, Let the Right One In. Both those items set me back quite a bit in fact.

Cool poster Alucard! Still waiting for the movie to get released here, really looking forward to it! And oh, nice statue as well. ;)

Last game I bought is Heroes of Might and Magic V. I remember spending hours playing parts II & III, but I never got into part IV, really didn't like the changes they made there. Part V seems to return to the gameplay of the earlier parts again. I found myself playing it into the early hours, good to know that once in a while someone still releases a great turn based strategy game! :) Too bad that the game comes with very few single maps.

Thanks Wimli. I hope you enjoy the movie when it's released. It's one haunting film. :)

I never saw it. But I usually like my vampires movie to be more Anne Rice like... Do you think I would like it?

And to stay on topic, last game I bought: an old boxed edition of Quest for Glory IV!

Hmmm, it's difficult to say really. It's one of those movies you'll either appreciate or you won't. It's serious and dark in tone and it does focus on character and story more than anything. Rest assured, this isn't an over-the-top blockbuster, e.g: Underworld, Blade, Van Helsing etc. Like Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles, this story is about the lead characters' dark, depressing and lonely worlds.
It's also quite ambiguous. Not all the answers are spelled out. A lot is left up to your own interpretation, which gives the film more depth. If you do get it, then this film can really get under your skin. The least you can do is try it out and see. I think the film was showing in Italy around January, so the DVD release can't be far off.

Anyway, sorry for getting off-topic.

It's a good looking statue. I'm not sure it fits well with the poster in the background though.

I suppose not. I was going to put the statue someplace else but it turned out to be bigger than i expected. That corner of my desktop seemed to be the most spacious and it sort of made sense putting it near my computer. The poster on the other hand, well... i suppose, like the statue, i want it somewhere near me when i'm using the computer.

OK, I cracked. I've been drooling over this for six months now. Hopefully I'll be able to assemble it tomorrow. :)

Grand Theft Auto open worldness meets Electro superhero type game.

Trapped in a city after a mysterious explosion and with new found electricity based powers you can decide great power means great responsibility or just zap everyones ass.

Great fun so far as I climb every building, jump from great heights and toss cars at bad guys.

I went to a book fair a few weeks ago where they sold excess stock and book supplies from stores that went bankrupt. Next to some twenty books (amongst others a cool The Art of Discworld), I also picked up some adventure games for 1 Euro a piece: Nibiru, Journey to the Centre of the Earth and Beauty or the Beast.

Just received my copy today, one day early, from ShopTo.net. I even won a t-shirt, which has been wrapped up and sealed so it's in the shape of a batarang. :D Just waiting for the game to finish installing on my 360's hard drive so I can dive into the insane world of Arkham Asylum.
