So, I went to Best Buy and some other places to see if I wanted to spend any of the masses of gift cards I got over the holidays. I only ended up spending a little a Best Buy, namely because they are shooting themselves in the foot by having internet access on all their computers on display. I was carrying Shoot ‘Em Up around most of the time I was there. I didn’t see many good movies this year (I saw lots of movies, most of them just sucked) and I really enjoyed seeing Shoot ‘Em Up. My friends are all mindless action junkies, so that was a pretty crazy experience. The writing is intentionally cheesy, but I see it as a kind of What if Smokin’ Aces was good. However, checking the price at HMV.ca at Best Buy since I knew I was going to an HMV later, I saw it was cheaper there. I also ended up looking at Half-Life 1 Anthology for PC. Having The Orange Box now really makes me want to have as much as the series I can and, as much as I wish it, I don’t think Half-Life 1 is going to be coming to Xbox Live Arcade. I thought this would be the perfect thing to get. I figured I’d check the price of the package on Steam before buying it and, lo and behold, it was half the price Best Buy had it for. I ended up getting the third and fourth Futurama seasons on DVD since they were the best price I’d seen them so far. I ended up saving at least twenty dollars just because I could connect to the internet while at the store. Unfortunately that’s about as exciting as my shopping trip got, I don’t have a story about something stupid a Best Buy employee did or anything. I’m kinda boring. On the plus side, Rock Band.
