At last, indeed! I still have mine from when it was originally released... you did good!

I bought this of Ebay used, expected it to be in decent condition, turns out its in pretty much mint condition! Which I wasnt expecting, so whilst waiting for it to be delivered I went and ordered a brand new one from the US!! Also bought Warioware twisted off Ebay today, new and sealed!!

My wallet is not happy.

I need to get NBA jam in the long box. Its one I don't have. Are you collecting them?

Not really, I just love NBA Jam. Reminds me of the early 90s playing on SNES and playing the arcade version at the local comic book store. Longbox are definitely amazing though. Which do you have?

Crushed my first Tough Mudder this morning, completed it in under four hours with a friend. Sooooo much fun!

Then after I got my shower I went out to pick up some games because I'm gonna be in so much pain tomorrow I'm not going to be able to leave the couch!
 
My current PC build, named "Furnace", thanks to the 95 degrees temperature threshold of thhose two R9 290X running in Crossfire. :p The theme is black and gold.

Gonna be removing that hard drive cage, and fitting his PSU cover over the power supply unit to hide those bunch of wires coming out of the PSU. With this custom designed acrylic PSU cover. Simpler compared to my last year's rig.

Was thinking of a "gold-colored" coolant, but I was trying to avoid that "urine" look :p, so I went with clear distilled water instead.

The rig is to be paired with this Dell Ultrasharp 2414Q 3840x2160 60Hz 24" monitor.

Other fairly recent purchases:

Titanfall PC CE.

In keeping with the Titanfall theme :p :

xGpOxu9.jpg

Titanfall custom Xbox One decal from Unique Custom Gaming. Comes with decals for the console, the Kinect and the controller, although the controller decal is a bitch to install due to the curved surface of the controller. It's vinyl, pretty malleable and stretchy, so I've installed it with the help of a heat gun.

The "Furnace" rig, will be complementing the "Endgame" rig I've build last year which is still coping with running 3840x2160 at 60 frames per second on the Asus PQ321Q 4K 32" monitor.

This was last year's rig, named "Endgame":-

"Sandy Bridge-E" Core i7 3930K
8 x 4GB Avexir Core "Red" RAM
3 x Gigabyte GTX Titans
2 x Sandisk Extreme 480GB SSDs in RAID0
1 x WD 4TB Black Edition HDD
1 x Asus BD Drive
1 x Asus Xonar Phoebus Soundcard
1 x Seasonic X1250Watt PSU
1 x Windows 7 Professional
1 x NZXT Phantom 820 Full Tower Case

Liquid-cooling components:
Custom Bitspower Acrylic & Crystal Link Tubings
2 x XSPC MCP855 Pumps + Bitspower Dual D5Mod Top
Bitspower Flow Indicator
Bitspower Silver Shining Fittings
FrozenQ Liquid Fusion V T-Virus Reservoir
EKWB XTX360 + XSPC EX240 Radiators

That bottom PSU cover lights up. Took a while to commission production using sandwiched acrylic pieces, laser cutting and backpanel lighting.

Last but not least, Nvidia Shield running Remote GameStream, had a quick match of MK:KE while having dinner at a cafe. GameStream running from that MSI GT60 Dominator Pro thanks to that R337.50 Beta driver.

Damn. Those 3 Rigs above put my budget build to shame. I am totally happy with what I've got but somehow I think my system would be treated like it was a leper by you guys. :( Inferiority complex starting to set in now....
 
I picked this up for 5 euros in Tesco's (a supermarket). The Tesco's here doesn't usually have video games. I've seen a few before but it's been years.



Sorry if the image is too large.

EDIT: I also picked this up in Gamestop for 17.99:

€5? Did you hold a gun towards the cashiers head? Best €5 ever spend, I guarantee you that.

Decided it was time to give another RPG a shot after finishing up Persona 4 Golden a month or so ago. Will be my first time playing an Ys game so I hope it lives up to the hype, not like the time I imported Linkle Liver Story based on a ridiculously positive Gamefan preview. Not that I am still bitter about it 17 years later or anything.
 
Just got back from the Sharks - Kings game tonight, glad my SJ Sharks won. Picked this up and had it patched during the game (pardon the flash in the first pic):
