And that's all for this year.
 
will be adding more but this one conflicts me to open or not to open didn't expect a sealed copy.

I wouldn't worry about it. Some ps1 games still have thousands of seals copies out there. It was super cheap to produce ps1 games and some of them were printed in large quantities for sale at budget prices. This might be one of them.
 
I've stepped up my Audio game on my PC this Christmas.

I usually use cans (Philips Fidelio X2 Headphones) but wanted speakers for when i didn't want to wear those.

I got the audioengine 5+ speakers and stands:

Love the build of the figures. Good feel to them.

Some blu-rays I got with Amazon vouchers I got for christmas. Adored Paranorman, and The Burbs was good old fashioned fun!

23659478399_bf29b06ce0_c.jpg


Been after the Herzog docs for some time, and i've heard great things about Cartel Land. Family Guy remains a guilty pleasure....

And finally, I went on a bit of a binge with regards to NISA anime releases, and got these 6...

Thanks!
How is the build quality?

it is fine. the printing is very good, the mug is fine. It is the regular mug you get from places like Walmart when you personalize with pictures, etc..

I just put on my desk and when somebody starts talking about something they read on facebook, I just take a sip of coffee showing off the mug lol
 
I've been accumulating pics of my pickups from the last few months but never found the time to post them!
Considering this is the last 2015 thread, I'm going to recap my last few months of pickups over the next few days. :)

24044018945_5d03e5bb08_c.jpg


Mine died Dec 2013, and wanted one ever since as there were so many games I missed out on due to finances.

Good pick up for the end of the year I think!
 
Nothing game related today, just something I wanted/needed(?):

Great buy man! That book helped me out more than anything in animation school. In fact, that's really all you need. Didn't learn anything in school that the book doesn't tell you in greater detail.

Not pictured are some more Neo CD stuff:
  • Puzzle Bobble
  • KOF 96 Neo Geo Collection
  • Sengoku

I wish I had a picture of Sengoku. Got it new sealed, US version, for a steal. I actually feel bad how little I paid for it.

I'm not sure how to feel about that since I'm planning on going to school to learn animation lol

Anywho... Finally! After impatiently waiting for hours lol

Bought and just hung an old school Marvel canvas, it looks a bit wonky to my eyes but the level said it's 100% bang on straight so my eyes just suck! I just wanted something to break up the colour on my wall, plus it's a really bad wall in general.


Close up:

 
Upgraded my 10+ years old Saitek Cyborg to a Saitek X52 Pro.

And a new wireless mouse for the laptop and Surface Pro, Logitech MX Master (I was looking for Bluetooth connectivity, this has both Bluetooth and Logitech Unifying, so its perfect.)

Doesn't look straight to me either. Did you measure the wall and ceiling with the level? Maybe that is what isn't straight...

If he is correct and the canvas is indeed level, then the ceiling appears to slope ever so slightly as it doesn't run parallel (you can verify this in PhotoShop).

Edit - Forgot to say, love the print. Classic Marvel nostalgia!
 
Old house perhaps? I live in a house thats close to a hundred years old and everything's just made so it would look okay. They didn't care that much about little details back then :P

My bedroom is something like 3,5x3,5 meters and the ceiling is just a little over 3 cm higher on one side of the room then it is on the other. When I hang a painting, picture or shelf I always make it so it looks okay, even though it isn't level.

Got the X-files for $15 each, matched the price at bestbuy with a target ad, until dawn $20

Also got The Order 1886 digitally ($10) and a Samsung LED 55" 1080p 120hz tv ($470)

I know that feel bro. Mine's about 70 years now. Renovated the building completely a couple of years ago. It was a pain in the A, but found some pretty interesting stuff when we got rid of the old ceilings and wooden floors (many ammo crates were used back then to rebuild the houses that were destroyed during WW2).

A friend sold me these Sennheiser HD 555s for an excellent price to replace my (sadly dead) HARX700s. Took a week or so to get used to them but they sound really great and are nice and comfy too. Hopefully they'll last a really long time as well, but definitely a great pair of headphones for someone not demanding about audio like me.

Also picked up a digital copy of Life is Strange for the PS3 (not pictured).
