Seriously, if someone knows a site that provides good sized game cover art I will be eternally grateful.

Got myself with gift monies.

A wallet, and some other stuff.
Did get my brother Devil May Cry 4, but it was off Goozex for $1, so meh. And got my sister MySims on PC... which she hasn't bothered to play yet because it's pretty much a dumbed down version of The Sims... a series she has been familiar with for more than 6 years. But it was the only game I could find that would be exclusively for her. It was $20 anyway... Does kinda suck that my hours have been vastly cut back, going from making around $140-200 a week to only $40-80 a week.
Edit:
I'm going to take my opprotunity to express what Prince of Persia is and where it's parts sorta come from. (In my mind).
It has puzzles like PoP: Sands of Time.
It has movement like Asssassin's Creed and Shadow of the Colossus.
It has a setup for the environment much like Shadow of the Colossus.
- Hero comes into unknown land with a mysterious past with no clear way to leave.
- Hero is not welcome there.
- Hero stirs up trouble involving past history and must set things right.
- Hero's home base is a huge temple in the middle of a large field.
- Temple has a series of symbols that indicate progression of the game.
- Hero goes to separate parts of the world to fight in arenas.
- Hero has the ability to create a signal to show him the way.
- Hero is trying to save a girl.
- Hero has a trusty steed.
- Game is about mostly exploring and getting to places with important one on one battles spread throughout.
Elika and the rest of the game nods towards Ico.
- Hero and Girl must fix world and escape.
- Girl is being oppressed by her mother/father and is kept against her will.
- Hero inadvertently finds and then helps Girl.
- Girl's mother/father is Queen/King, making her a Princess.
- Girl is the love interest of the Hero in the story.
- Girl wears wispy white clothing.
- Environment is a place that used to be lived in, but is now empty and dead.
- Environment occasionally contains amazing mechanical pieces.
Prince of Persia borrows from Okami.
- Healing trees to purge the land of evil is exactly what you do in the first 5 hours of Okami.
- Just purging evil from the land in general.
- Okami and Prince of Persia take a high fantasy view on Japan/Persia and display it in a highly stylized way, using cell shading.
- There are moments that involve running straight up walls.
- Transition of evil land to pure land is exactly the same.
- Fertile Grounds = Guardian Sakura Tree
- Copious amount of real world religion is used in the mythos of the story.
Prince of Persia has moments where you get onto a plate and get launched through the air on a predetermined path, just like the lauching stars in Super Mario Galaxy. Same with Light Seeds and Starbits/Coins/Stars/etc.
So yeah, anymore?
