Best Christmas haul ever?

from GAF Secret Santa - comics, games and a US PS2 for my imports (guess I'll finally start playing Chulip!):

LEGO sets:

And a bunch more goodies: Box of the best chocolate there is, ICO and Shadow of the Colossus Japanese Limited edition (I ordered it when it was released but it got lost in the mail and I never saw it...now that situation is rectified!), Rhythm Thief, Solanin, Peanuts figures and a FC Porto shirt. The best part about it? It will soon be signed by the whole team.

So yeah, best Christmas haul ever.
 
Some random pickups from my "End of the World" celebration at Disneyland over the weekend:

Here's pretty much all my gaming related pickups for the year barring all the download stuff I bought. Can't say I don't have anything to play. And I only bought one copy of motorstorm. The other is a mistake.

My brother in law surprised me, he knows I like old games so he gave me this box for christmas today.



the rest of them


The Master system games that got blurred out from the flash are Missile Defense 3D and Alien Syndrome. A few good ones in there and a spare PS2 is always nice :)

Being a big starcraft fan my wife found this on amazon. Not sure if I want to open it or display it in the box - found some pictures online and it does look really well done.

I had my eye on this or the "5 eye" mudman for a while now. I like this a lot. Fits well and looks like some futuristic shit. Might end up with the other one at some time too. The watchuseek forums show that the "features" are little more than gimmicks. Considering I have a smart phone I might not stay with this one.

The wife has never played chess and thought I would get her into it with this. Should be interesting since the person that taught me still kicks my ass in it.

I got this for the wife. They took a lame time sink boring game and made it even more boring. Neat set for the figures and theme though.

Wife got this for me - never seen a model of this that you have to build before but this looks awesome.

Got this from the reddit secret santa. Already read it on my kindle but its so good I do like having the book. Thickest book I have ever read and I think if I got it first I would have been intimidated to even start it. Never knew how much book there was on the kindle.

I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?
Merry Christmas, everyone!

... and so far from the Steam Sale, I've completed my Ghost Recon and Splinter Cell collections (save for Future Soldier), bought the Tomb Raider collection, finished my Prince of Persia collection, and grabbed KOTOR II.

Tom Clancy games were some of the best last generation. Rainbow Six was mind-blowing back in the Xbox days.

Blah, sorry for the shitty Instagram "oh I'm a photographer!" photo, but this is what I got from Christmas today from my girlfriend and her parents (I already opened most of her presents she got me and opened presents from everyone else a week or so ago)

Would love to see some photos of the kit once you get the box open, if it's relatively easy to assemble I must have one! I was hoping to find a diecast model to go with the Ecto 1 but this seems as close as I will get.

Was a wonderful christmas. Got money from my parents so I can buy winter tires for the new car. My sisters got me the following. :D

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
Thing is rad, I'm just trying to remember how I saw the screen at all as a kid.

I'd like to eventually pick up a couple Astro City cabs, one horizontal, one vertical. They're hard to come by unless you live out on the West coast though. One day...

Nice PVM. I have a Sega board master coming in the mail but it's going to take a month or two to get here.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
What game is that?! Looks amazing
