Nice!
Also got the first game incoming as well.
Figured I might as well get what I can before the price goes up again.

I have waited years and years, but now... I finally have it!
THE X-FILES IN WIDESCREEN FULL HD!!! (And upscaled to 4K via my Blu-Ray Player, it is GLORIOUS!)
Also included is Ant-Man 3D (unfortunately the latest firmware left the 3D viewing on my Sony X850C a little buggy, so I can't watch that right away), and the Ninjago Team Pack for LEGO Dimensions, which my wife and I are really enjoying at the moment.

The plan is for A Mame PC right now. Me and a friend have been setting up Hyperspin. Its def one of the nicer looking front ends for this sort of thing.
Console and games are for my dad. I'm going to open up everything in a few days so I can install all the games I got him since it takes so long. There's a code for Gears of War Ultimate edition in there, too. It's a bit hidden. I'm going to install my disc version so hopefully he can just start gaming right away after he uses the code. The elite controller is getting mailed off next week to a family friend in PA.
I also got some Swarovski Hello Kitty figurine for me Ma, and I got a Gear VR delivered yesterday to my parents' house. Don't know why I had it shipped there, but I was so happy to get the shipping confirmation a couple days ago since I only ordered it like...a week-and-a-half ago. I'm pretty excited. It's a gift for my sister, and she'll probably be mad at me for getting her something "electronic" because she never ends up using that kind of stuff, but I'm hoping she'll love this thing.
Edit: Also, something I'd like to point out about Wasteland 2...
I probably won't end up playing XBX until like...summer or something. I've got too much on my plate for now. I got the KoTOR games because I'm planning on getting an original Xbox soon. I already own multiple copies of Dark Souls 2 on different platforms and a digital copy of Sunset Overdrive, but I wanted the discs since there were sales going on. I also got digital copies of Witcher 3 and Rare Replay (I already have these in disc form). I also bought another Gears Ultimate code when it was on sale at amazon, but I haven't used it or decided what I'm going to do with it, really... Edit:Actually, I'm not really sure if I got the Gears Ultimate in this picture this month or last month. I guess I should check last month's PUP thread, lol.
I got one of these things. It's great! I love the screenshot and clip that buttons. Note: This is my controller. I haven't been using the one I'm giving away as a Christmas present.

and oh yeah, I got the Criterion Collection disc for Vampyr. I think a game announcement with the same name (Dontnod details Life is Strange follow-up Vampyr) reminded me that I wanted that movie.

Welcome to the site! You're certainly been busy of late (then again, so have I, as will become clear
). Nice varied selection you have there.Yep, I love it when a game comes with a proper manual. I had to laugh at Fallout 4's 'condensed survival guide'!
As for my pickups, it's been a few weeks since I last posted but I've got a fair few new things to share now.
First, the European LE of Xenoblade Chronicles X (artbook not pictured), plus a Fox amiibo which I think rounds out those which I've been particularly inclined to buy so far. I'm now sitting at 15 (including a sealed duplicate of Silver Mario), with Shovel Knight on order for release.
Next, I'm finally giving my Xbox One a little more love, with Halo V: Guardians and Rise of the Tomb Raider (currently playing through this one - it's fantastic!):
And finally over to PS4, where I've taken advantage of some for the recent sales to tick things off the wishlist, together with a set of three steelbooks. Here we have DRIVECLUB, The Order: 1886, Fallout 4, Tales of Zestiria, Tearaway Unfolded, Knack and The Talos Principle:

Fairly big update, there were a couple things I couldn't take pictures or post about because they were gifts. This covers all of the BF stuff too.
My Tightropes were lost or stolen, but I was very fortunate to find a style I liked that was discontinued, Taper. Marked at $150 for Polarized, they actually rang at $100. Score, as I was prepared to pay up to $210.
Kids wanted this one for awhile, and I finally got that $20 Visa Checkout code to grab it.
New PS4 drive, going in at the first of the year (unlimited internet starts).
Now begins the BF haul. I bought two of these, one for my dad and myself. I returned mine once I saw...
...the digital version on sale for about the same price. Already got my BC codes. Both were half off retail.
Another half-off retail. Not sure when this one will be unveiled.
That Amazon sale/glitch when the Premium Edition was down to $16. Now I have to trade my physical copy.
Wolfenstein double pack on sale from XBL.
The Escapists. I bought this on XBL, then realized it would be better if my kids played it on Steam, so that was an unnecessary double dip. Steam copy not pictured.
For $27 or so, I couldn't pass it up. I'm one of the few who actually enjoys Unity, so I figure it would be worth it.
Ace Attorney Trilogy and Box Boy from the eShop sale. AAT was the lowest ever price, if I'm not mistaken.
Couple of $10 gets. Aladdin was an impulse buy, I've been looking for IM3 for a decent price for absolutely forever.
Shutter speed too slow for my hands, sorry. This is the Extended XL to replace my white one. Nice contrast on the white desk.
Each year on BF Jet has their 50% off parallel clamp sale. Picked up two each of the 24" and 12". Meant to get two 31" instead of the 24". Oh well, there's always next year.
Edge-banding bit set. This will come in handy for the game bookcase build coming up.
I don't have a good way to initially break down sheet goods, so I'm hoping this comes in handy. Over 66% off, it was a steal. A bit flimsy on uneven surfaces, though.
Upgrade over the old version, this one now has Bluetooth and a USB port to charge. Some people post shoes, I post woodworking stuff.

Been all over the world the past 2 weeks. Here are some of my latest pick-ups. Currently in Tokyo for a few more days...
This is awesome! SNK Supporters Club bag that SNK gave away for people who subscribed to their newsletter club in the 90s.
Picked up some amiibos for my daughter while in Tokyo. Got her the Famicom ROB too!
This one is sort of a double pick-up. While in San Francisco for PlayStation Experience, I attended the Street Fighter V Character Art Show event at BAIT SF. Got a cool Cammy sketch from Long Vo of Udon Ent. Also have a new girlfriend (also pictured). ^_^
Got a cool gold Shadaloo pin from Capcom!
Got a much sought after pair of Nike Air Max 90s in duck camo.
Some goodies for my daughter and myself from my visit to Japan Town in SF. Got the latest Shunya Yamashita art book. Had to get it because it had a lot of the new TEKKEN artwork!
Got a new pair of Air Jordan 6 OG Maroons!
Two limited edition skateboard decks from nsurgo. These are Street Fighter themed ones (art by Udon's Long Vo). I was able to get the individually numbered ones in my fave number (23).
Care package from my friends at Nike. Love the variety.
More from Nike. The details on the Air Max 90 - Paris from the 'Treats' release is amazing. These were only released for women, so I had to get a women's size 12 (Men's 10.5).
Look at the details...!

Went to GameStop and it was on sale. I wasn't planning on buying it any time soon, but since both myself and my younger brother were interested in it, I went ahead and got it.

A few random things today!
My Shovel Knight Amiibo arrived today, I can't wait to finally dig into the game on Wii U and play Co-Op with the wife!
There was also a sale on recently with a local vendor, managed to pick up the entire series blu-ray of Spartacus (gratuitous violence and sex FTW), plus Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga.
Not in the pic, but on Steam, I got a few games including Guilty Gear XRD and Killing Floor 2, plus a pre-order for Resident Evil 0 HD Remaster, and on the PS3, Yakuza 5. Also, the rest of my Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair LE contents arrived after there was an incorrect order sent, but I forgot to take a pic of the items.
Lastly, I'm big on the progressive and tech genre of music, and picked up the latest release of the Balance series (mixed by Stacey Pullen this time around) which I highly recommend to anyone. I'm really hoping that my favorite DJ, John Digweed eventually gets to do one, it will be insane.

Man, I've always appreciated import pickups mixed with local region pickups. All those region classifications there together just seems cool to me! Like an assembly of games far and wide.

I absolutely love the look of this thing and bought two of them...unfortunately the shorter trigger throw (or, rather, earlier engagement) throws me off in shooters so I rarely use the controller. :-\
Nice playing.
Every time I see a Micro Terror I laugh because of how ridiculous they sound when played...such tone from such a tiny box...I pushed a 2x12 with it, so loud.
Thank you, they just released a Micro version of the Dark Terror I want now also -_-

Wait. The chat pad is out for xb1?? Will it work with the elite controller if you are using paddles?
