    As the month's drawing out to a close, it's that time again. Show off your purchases for the month.

    If you've forgotten what you picked up last month, your answer is only one click away

    It's been a quiet month for me. I picked up the 13-Disc Superman Ultimate Collection, Command & Conquer 3: Kane Edition ($40!) and I'm about to pick up an iPod Touch.

    Unfortunately, I don't have a picture yet, as I'm waiting on the iPod before I can take the picture.

    What about the rest of you? Any other cool purchases?

    Dude, the Touch doesn't have a camera. Only the iPhone does.

    I think he means he's waiting to get the iPod before he posts a picture.

    Slow month for me as well, just Gears of War for PC, and I'm downloading the latest Warhawk expansion now. And I'll be getting WipEout HD when it comes out.

    If you liked the new Transformers movie, you'll probably want to brutally murder me right about.....now.

    Slowest month ever for me. Tends to happen when you don't have a job. I only bought the Pain Amusement Park add on from the PSN store for $8.45

    And in regards to pick ups, no enemies have dropped any good/epic loot. I did pick up a few CDs though and will probably head down to JB hi-fi tomorrow and pick up a game or two. Ninja Gaiden Sigma and something else, most likely. Hell, maybeI'll buy 2 games as well as that Ratchet and Clank 'episode' game.

    August Burns Red - Thrill Seeker - 9/10
    Beastie Boys - Licensed to Ill - 8/10
    Norma Jean - Vs The Anti-Mother - 7/0
    N.W.A. - Straight Outta Compton - 8.5/10
    Guns N Roses - "The Spaghetti Incident?" - 6.5/10
    Conor Oberst - Self-Titled - 8/10
    The Verve - Urban Hymns - 9/10

    Exactly. The idea of the pick-up thread is that you post pictures. Who the hell wants to just read what you've got?

    I didn't pick up anything besides Spore, but that was ages ago. I'm just saving up for my trip to Italy ($2200 so far)

    (Nothing worth playing... sigh)

    Wanting: Killzone 2 , Resident Evil 5, Uncharted 2, God of War 3

    I got about a billion things this month, you're gonna have to wait until the end of the month (as usual) because I'm expecting to get more.
