"A lot of fans seem to think the artwork in the jewel case is nicer than the ltd. edition, actually... "
Yeah... i looked at in yesterday in a music-store. The images in the jewelcase really are nicer than on the special edition. The images inside that booklet resemble the frontcover-picture, which is my favourite out of all the maps in there.
But still... having a gigantic fold-out map is much cooler than a boring old jewelcase :-p I did put the cd itself in an empty jewelcase though. Don't want scratches.

"I know what surrounded means now when he said the map could be morre detailed."
:-) So you agree, huh? It's almost as if he was in a hurry with the artwork... i mean... well... such a huge fold-out map. The potential was huge! It could have been awesome. But the map that they printed there... it doesn't look like he put alot of work in there. Not nearly as much work as in the OKC, Kid A & Amnesiac artwork.
Ahwell... the music is still amazing :-) I cannot get enough of it! (my discman has problems playing it though... it must be that damn copyprotection... grrr... damn you evil pirates!)

Erik Roggeveen, Alphen aan den Rijn, Nederland Erik heeft een prachtig dagboek gemaakt van alle avonturen die Link heeft beleefd: van het originele The Legend of Zelda tot Majora's Mask.
Het is geschreven vanuit Link's perspectief en zit tjokvol schetsen en gedetailleerde beschrijvingen van mensen, plaatsen en puzzels die Link op zijn reizen is tegengekomen.

"man that has taken a lot of effort! you deserve it"
Thanks alot! :-)
"so youve got 2 cubes now?"
Yeah... i've been trying to sell it to a toystore, or trade it for lots of games... but none of them want it :-( (well i can understand... it would look weird on their administration i'm sure :-p).
So i think i'll have it to sell it to someone myself. But ofcourse i'll never get for it what it cost in the store... but oh well. It's still a cool prize :-)

after one listen through, There There, and Myxomitosis (sp?) are my two favorites... just love There There, and even though it is the one song I heard before hearing the album, it's just amazing through headphones! Myxomitosis is awesome... sounds like some cool 80's electro pop style song or something... great stuff!

ziggomatic > i never said i didn't like Sit Down Stand Up at all! just on first listen i found it good but no more, now i find it great : )
the only tracks i like less than the others is Sail To The Moon, and don't like is I Will... maybe i will like them more afterwards, like Lucky which i was even skipping on OK Computer at first... maybe, dunno.
btw, something bad - the album is protected against reading on computers. -_-

Yeah but it was alot of fun! :-)
"congratulations dude, and my compliments :) "
Thanks buddy! I appreciate it :-D
"and i'd keep the platinum one if i were you"
You know, i haven't even unwrapped it yet. It's covered in plastic and all. But now that it looks like no store will be buying it from me, i might as well have a look at it and maybe change my mind. I very much doubt it though ;-) Platinum is too technical. My discman is platinum and it's ugly as hell :-p (no offense morton (it's a phillips you see ;-)). And you've just got to love the purple!
"and no, sorry, this doesn't mean i wanna buy it from you)) :P"
damn! Not even if i throw in a couple of nintendo balloons, pens, stickers & keychords? :-p They litterally filled the entire package up with that stuff... pretty cool.
"again, very cool, i always liked your other stuff at your site too, esp. that book of yours"
:-) Thanks again! It's a shame you don't work for a publishing-company, otherwise we'd be in business :-p My own childrensbook could be in stores in 3 months ;-)
"(btw did you go out on the street to yell "hooray for verkerk!!" this weekend? ;))"
Lol, yeah suddenly everyone knows alphen aan den rijn :-p Pretty weird. But i don't care about sports at all. I didn't watch it on the television, and i certainly didn't go to the "huldiging"... what a waste of time and money that was.

I'm still hoping nintendo will one day go back to their old übercool lightgrey/darkgrey with red accents colour-scheme... (nes & snes)... man that was so beautiful! But i really do think the purple isn't bad either. Especially when it's turned on and the orange light is burning... nice).
Black? boring! :-p

what GC games do you have? how are they?
Super Mario Sunshine - fantastic but flawed. The main game (playing through all the levels & rescuing the princess) is amazing and has near perfect gameplay. But finding all the secrets and 120 shines is incredibly frustrating and often just no fun.
Pikmin - what everyone else says: incredibly fun, but too short. Just when you feel like it's getting really good... it's all over. But i still think it's worth it though. The pikmin themselves are supercute, and being able to control them is an incredible experience. I still play the game quite often. Can't wait for the sequel!
Zelda, the wind waker - amazing, astonishing, perfection... this is probably the best videogame i've ever played. Never before has hyrule seemed so alive! Simply walking around any of the islands is an experience in itself... and then there's the dungeons... :-D
Eternal Darkness - hard to get into. At first i thought the controls were sloppy, and the story very confusing. But as i continued, it really managed to suck me in! As the story unfolds and you begin to understand it... it really becomes quite a scary experience (play it at night with the lights off ;-)). The controls are not very intuitive, but in the end it helps to make the characters feel like real people, and not almighty superheroes.
And well... those are the only ones i have so far. High on my wishlist (and already in stores): metroid, ikaruga, skies of arcadia, starfox adventures, super monkey ball. Any of those will probably be next.

but the album is amazing! i was a cheat and got it off of slsk about a month ago. still amazing!

it's missing attention to details... arrangements are ordinary.. it's a pop album.

hmmm, well I'm just totally opposite from you... Ok Computer and Kid A I loved from the first listen... Ok Computer is a pop album... a great one, and one of the best, but still a pop album... Kid A isn't quite pop, but I found it quite easy to enjoy...
Hail to the Thief ain't really hard to get into, but it has grown on me considerably... first listen I thought it was nice, but since I've really become hooked... and also, I personally think these arrangements and melodies are far from pop... nothing on here sounds normal to me, everything sounds a little strange, the melodies and arrangements I mean... now, I love this, but I mean that none of it sounds like a real pop song to me really...
