So, maybe i didn't buy them, but look what came in the mail for me today!

A company that starts with "M" and ends in "soft" bought these for me, as I am now working for them.....And there is more to come!

Pentax 50mm f/1.4 M42 lens

Nice buy.

Not sure if you have run into this yet, but be careful when getting older M42 lenses. More specifically, full auto ones without the auto/manual switch for the aperture.

If it is full auto, the aperture blades will always be fully open unless you mod the lens to hold the pin in.

Thanks for the warning; I wasn't aware of that. Thankfully, I was sure to buy a manual one just because it's what I prefer. :) I'll be sure to in the future, too!

Can't wait to use it. Still waiting on my adapter to get here, too. I ordered it directly from Pentex, but I haven't gotten shipping conf. My digital Pentax 50-200mm got here today, though, so that should tide me over. :D

I didn't do any HDD install, nor has the game forced me to either. Best part about that is how fast each scene loads.

sweet, i remember back to devil may cry 4 and the half hour to install, am picking my copy up today so :D hope it's as good as it looks :D

Luckily I didn't buy it all at once. Only the English version came today. Japanese version was from launch day back in December. Trail version is the demo that came with Advent Children Complete Blu-ray last summer. Soundtracks came yesterday.

ahhhh i was thinking about getting the japanese version but my Jap just aint up to scratch nice little bundle you got there though :D

I too went overboard, this was yesterday's haul.

I've also got both the standard and limited edition OSTs imported from Japan.

Picked these 2 up and I must say I love Army of Two except the
intelligence of my a.i. partner sometimes. It's like sometimes
(1 out of 4 times) he will drag me into battle to heal me
ahahah. Otherwise great game. The wife and I were cursing so
bad at the tv last night, "Quit effing dragging him there, just heal
him!!" LOL

Havn't tried Fable 2 yet, opened it last night though. Got it off
eBay new for 13$. I played Fable 1 back in the day and didn't
beat it, but tried the F2 demo on Live and liked it a few months
ago.

Might beat Army of Two today. Finishing the Chinese level ^_-.
Anyone tried part two to that yet?

Congratulations that will be absolutely amazing. This will be a better purchase than every single material item in this thread. Will last a lifetime :).
