Also got 'Fist of the North Star Collection 1' and on Steam 'Poker Night at the Inventory' >:D
Where do you buy from? Is the site UK-based?
up1.co.uk

Great site for British anime fans.... and...... furry fans too I guess.

They just take a while to do other things like update your card details and whatnot.

So you expect Dragon Box 4 to be with you in a few days? Wait, do they keep stock in the UK? Cheers for the website:)

Well I ordered it today and got confirmation that it was processed today, and last time that happened I got it the next day. And yes their stock is in the UK.

They might be a tad dear though, but what do you expect? Their packages are protected very well and they have fast delivery.

Yeah, I noticed. I dont mind paying a bit more for faster delivery:) One last question, do they deliver to Ireland?

Dragon Ball Z: Burst Limit. Ordered it with my GOW III PS3 bundle. Even got the chance to play it a bit - it's beautiful and everything I expected it to be. :mrgreen:
Still a bit frustrated that the PS3 did not come with an HDMI cable included though and I can't enjoy HD visuals straight out of the box. *grunt*

Shop around, you can find HDMI cables quite cheap. check Fry's Electronics or frys.com. They had good prices. No need to drop $60-$80 on a cable.

Thanks. :) I found out that I can use my PS2's component cable for the same purpose - it works great so far.
I'll use that until I can find some extra money for an HDMI. ^^

P.S: I'm loving Burst Limit so far.

Go to amazon.com and buy an HDMI cable for under $5. I've bought like 3 of them over time and they all work great. I still can't believe people are buying them or 60 bucks. Some even go past the 100's :shock: It's completely ridiculous.
Link to an HDMI cable on Amazon

P.S. What's your PSN ID name? I have Burst Limit too, but no one ever plays.

Thanks for the link, Drabaz. :) That's a pretty damn good deal, although I might be able to find something affordable in a local store in my hometown.

PSN ID... I believe it should be BobZ. I'm still struggling with setting my PS3 with the router, so I'll have to look into it further.
Check the Video Games Burst Limit thread - I recently posted there and will definitely be willing to go online these days. :)
And as soon as I confirm my PSN ID, I'll also add it in my sig.

Soppa Saiyjins from Dorgou Ballru Zetto is my favorite transformation everah, especially when Trounksoru did it in front of Seru and when Bejita did it when he faced Jingonigen-hachigo. But for real, I use the FUNi pronunciation. - Soppa Saia People

Is it an animanga or does it have original art?

I think I will pick it up. Then once I finally learn Japanese I'll be able to read it. :lol:

Yes! My DVDs arrived at around 8 in the morning! Dragon Box Z 4 is sooooo coooooooooooool.

And so is the new version of Dragon Soul, hadn't heard it yet, better than Schemmel's, but not Mignogna's, anyone know who it is?

Also, Gohan's hair appears a little bit on the second DVD book spine of box 4, just as predicted.

I'd post pics but my camera seems to have broken... I'll buy a new one later, muahahaha...

Wow, they're really lazy with the SSJ HSCF Vegeta figures. Majin and normal SSJ were exactly the same except for the M, and this one is the same as them, just with different hair.
Ya I was a little disappointed they did that with the Goku and SSJ Goku as well

I already said my camera was broken, hopefully it's just the batteries, but I'm posting with my bro's DSi right now, I could switch SD cards, take pics and post later.

The Dragonbook looks pretty cool too, it's that picture of Cell with his rape-face, only that's changed to him looking angry. And the "Profile of Goku Family" yet again covers Vegeta, Son Goku, Son Gohan and Trunks, but with big pictures that cover the page, there's also some background designs at the end along with the characters.


The only Overlooked Moment is Kuririn hearing Dr. Slump music while on the phone on hold with Capsule Corp.

I might not get to it for a while, I'm dying to watch Z Kai part 2 (watched 3 eps so far) and Fist of the North Star.

Shadowdude, if you're reading this, my new mouse and headset arrived too, prepare yourself for more TF2 and L4D2!
