PS3 ~ Biggest Haul This Year

I couldn’t resist to get one, PS3 was launched in Australia at Friday, 23rd March 2007, and I bought mine at Saturday 24th :p

PS3 cost me A$987, with 2 games and another controller the total adds up to around A$1244 @_@ Bought Enchanted Arms, japan RPG game, and Virtua Fighter 5 (bought VF5 and the controller on the next day).
This thing is huge, the machine alone is 7kg heavy. worst part is that Sony only include the composite cable (normal AV cable, 3 jacks, red white yellow), but anyway, JB (store where I bought the PS3) gave me HDMI cable for free, which is quite nice :D.

I don’t play many console games in these past few years (my gaming days were back at PS1 days, like 5-6 years ago). I tried this game because it has Etna on the game cover, which I’ve seen her figurine a few times from web sites (such as this one. by super rats).

The shipment was quite fast, only 12 days :O The figure costed 4571 yen + around 700 yen shipping, so this figure costed me total around A$59. both HLJ and HobbySearch are out of stock now, so expect the price to be higher.

Below is the photo of the box
