today was partially good, was basically out cos my mum kinda nagged about going for friday prayers...

was walking around eastpoint when i got a call from -mOn-... he kinda ask me about the whereabouts of possible game shops which distributes pirated games... yes ladies and gentlemen, we buy pirated goods... and dont come condemning us first, cos im pretty sure in some ways you guys have or bought pirated goods...

he was basically looking for 'need for speed:underground' for PC... so i kinda tell him where's the possiblity of gettin it... so we kinda meet and we're off on a game hunt...

at the same time i was basically looking for resident evil code:veronica x and resident evil gun survivor 2, both for PS2... (cant blame me man... im a resident evil freak!)

went around driving and somehow we ended up at marine parade there... got a coupla disappointments before heading towards katong shopping center, which was notorious for selling loads of pornography years back... got into a shop tat sold games and i stumbled across resident evil code:veronica x but due to shortage of cash, i decided its not nice to ask -mOn- to spare me ten quids for it...

we went around the shopping center looking for other game shops but to no avail, so -mOn- decided that he could get that code veronica x for me... *exciteds* went over the first and only shop, and he asked whether they got wat he was looking for, and yea due to some swing of luck, there's a stock left for him... so -mOn- got his stuff, only without the cover... and he told me to get mine, which turn out to be out of stock! argh! and the shopkeeper's got a nerve to put the dvd sleeve back on the rack!

but everything's not really a major disappointment though, at least i got to know where i can get both the games im desperately looking for... the only set back is they're originals so they kinda gonna cost me a bomb... *sigh* well looking forward to my payday end of this month!
