It's Drood. And welcome to the addiction.

 

[Apenheul]

Even though it's the holiday season I had to narrow my game purchases down to only a couple of essentials. This time I spent a lot on music gear instead of games.

It's a non-gaming purchase thread too. Lets see it!

 

[Enron]

I posted a crappy pic earlier, here's a better one.

And these are my total pickups for Dec: A gateway hd2400 that I found on clearance at a BB for 250, p4, and the Seamaster.

Ok then, here goes

The Klein&Hummel O300 studio monitors are by far the best I've ever heared (and I have heared many), it's like getting full HD audio or something I bought a high quality DA converter with it (this one goes to eleven!!):

Oh and I've just ordered Sam & Max: Season one btw.

So that's:
Games: 260 euros
Studio monitors: 3700 euros
DA converter: 700 euros
-----------------------------
Total: 4660 euros (~ 6220 USD *ouch*)

 

[Tarin02543]

Is that an Omega speedmaster?

 

[Enron]

Is that an Omega speedmaster?

Nope. Seamaster Professional 300, model reference number 2254.50. One of the last of the regular automatic Seamasters. All the auto seamasters are going co-axial next year (or in the very near future), and this seamaster pro is being replaced by the black-dialed Bond seamaster. So I had to strike finally.

This is a Speedmaster:

[Auron_Kale]

CGWorld Game Graphics 2008 issue.

Lots of info and artworks as well as background information on the making of MGS4, Hot Shots Golf 5, Valkyria Chronicles, Lost Planet, Ace Combat 6, and other games. There is also a post-mortem on FFXII. The magazine focuses on the techniques and tools used to make games ranging from PS3/360 to Arcade games to handheld games.

Can take pics of magazine's contents if someone requests it.

 

[Kadey]

An early present from the rents. A new freezer. Something that I actually need. More food for the freeloaders.

[El Six]

Haven't really been here that long, kind of hard to remember everything I have picked up this year. But here are a couple of things I can remember off the top of my head;

Biggest Pick Up (first Home)

Video Games (the ones I can remember)

Some of the Movies I picked up this Year

Books I picked Up (again what I can remember)

My actual latest pick up

And With a new house came my first dedicated Gameroom

103" DIY Screen

Optoma HD65 Projector

Onkyo HT-S6100 7.1 HTIB

 

[TommyT]

anyone know a good way to remove permanent marker and tape without messing up the box??

I think you're boned on the marker as the cardboard soaks up the ink. Old stickers, the adhesive is probably bonded to the box beyond any removal method other than liquid. You could dry that area of the box out slowly, but it would still probably ruin it.

edit: You could make your own box then have some printing company print out the image on to it maybe!

And perhaps the most important one for this year, I got me a wife

[Kadey]

Far from. About 33k in November. Then again, I'd say that's pretty good for an obscure Sega game.
