I am jealous. Tiger Direct had a deal to get these for essentially $30 but they were sold out by the time I saw the deal.
How great are they?
They are perfect!!! The battery could last a lil longer but since it comes with a long cable you can always plug it to your PS4.
They are reeeeally comfortable too. And yeah, they just look great. The sound quality is top notch. Can't wait for real games to arrive on the PS4. So far I only played random Indie Games with them haha.

Nice - I actually got myself a pair of these yesterday. I'm loving them so far. Finishing Valiant Hearts then going to immerse myself in The Last Of Us with them!
Strangely, my box doesn't have the 'Greatness Awaits' slogan.

One step closer to completing my Castlevania collection.

A new Mother for this family has arrived.

I've been wanting to pick up these games for years and finally got around to it.
Bare Knuckle I, II, III, and The Super Shinobi. They are in pretty good shape, being from 89-94!
This was a couple of months ago, but Metal Slug 2nd mission just arrived.

Also got a Neo Geo Pocket Color thanks to Back in my Play making an extremely persuasive case.

I wear shoes until there are holes in the sole. Got some deeply discounted replacements. Pumas for day-to-day, Perry for brunch.
DK2 for work. I've been considering getting a MacBook Pro, but unsure about how much I'll use it so $2k is too much savings to blow. Instead I bought the SSD and turned my gaming rig into a dual-booting hackintosh to dip my toe in the Mac dev lifestyle. Runs like a dream.

I'm always disappointed when I realize the pick-up thread isn't the BST thread.

New car! Got it last weekend. I'm REALLY loving it. "side" graded from a MKV Volkwagen R32.
Very nice, I had a MKV GTI went with the new MK7 GTI.
Love the Focus ST though. Enjoy it! Great color choice!

Same here - I was pleasantly surprised when I found em at my local Target!
They only had one of each and I actually haven't seen them at any other stores since now that I think about it...
How do these compare to the other 7.1 wireless cans that were released earlier?

Sweeeeet. The best part of this is knowing that in a few years, you'll be shredding.
Also pedals. All of the pedals.

I miss my MKV so much. I have a '14 Mazda 6 and after this i'll go right back to a VW.
From an R32? I'd call that a downgrade!
Just kidding, I drive an MK6, so I'm a little biased
Congrats on the new ride!
I'm jelly. I tested out an MK7, I really like what they did with it. Especially that new exhaust note. Major 'grats to you.
Come back to the light side

Curious about your Persona 3 soundtrack. Is that only a single disc or a double-disc set?
Just asking as my copy of the Persona 3 soundtrack is 2-discs.
Thanks.
It's a 2-disc set. I don't think there is a single disc-set actually.

Thanks. Just the pic of it looked like a single-disc case so I wasn't sure if it was or not.

Picked up a Wii U like two weeks ago. I skipped the Wii, so I got a huge backlog to go through.
Some of the games I picked up with it.
My friend is leaving for Australia for a year, so she gave me her old amps. So have a sideways pic of some amps because imgur is weird.
Oh man! I cant wait for that. I've been watching YT videos of ppl doing covers and stuff and its kinda overwhelming for me. I know if I keep practicing ill get there, but looking a those ppl makes me not trust myself somehow.

Arriving in today's post I've got a set of specialist N64/SNES game protector boxes (from Sentinel64) - and I have to say that I'm really quite impressed with the quality of them:
The give a really nice, premium effect when on the game boxes - it's very pleasing to see the games looking so good. They even make my copy of DK64 (badly packaged by an eBay seller) clean up rather nicely!
Alongside those, I found myself hankering after the experience that I had with the Strike series games many years ago - at the time, with Desert Strike and Jungle Strike on the original Gameboy. While I go after those two (and Urban Strike, which I've not yet played at all) for reasonable prices, I got the two PS1 games (complete, of course!) nice and cheap from eBay in the meantime:

It's been a busy 11 days in August so far...
My fiance and I just bought a brand new, 2014 Ford Fusion:
I also picked up 2 pairs of Oakley Crosshair 2.0 sunglasses. They're one of my favorite designs, but Oakley recently discontinued it, so I got a great deal on the two different colors at an Oakley Vault (outlet):

Somehow I wish I missed out on Wii to experience Mario Galaxy 2 and some other games all over again
It's good to know there are others here who can appreciate Drexciya!

Looks pretty good, nice job!Used some leather remnants I had laying around to make myself a sleeve for my vita the leather is pretty scared up, but I think it looks pretty awesome. The screen side is lined with felt.
Also snagged some PAX tickets on ebay. Just got shipment notification today

OH.YEAH.
SFC and NEO GEO HAUL.
The SNES stuff are all games that I used to borrow of friends or get rid of back in the day. Also have a copy of Assault Suits Valken SFC that's not in the pics. I only really want to get Super Punchout, Super Mario RPG and maybe the Mega Man X games and I will be done with this little collection.
8 classic Neo Geo titles that I loved playing at the arcades...when they existed around these parts!
Adding to my lil collection...not many others I want to get outside of KOF96, Fatal Fury 1 and a few others.
Also...Real Bout has the pimpest box art ever. GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESE.
