For my PS3, about time, finally leaving 40GB-ghetto. :lol

/edit: back-up went smooth yesterday, restoring today... Not so much. At least my savegames seem to have made it over and 2 out of 5 installed PSN-games still work, gamedata... Well LBP seems ok but that's really the only one. Oh well, at least the drive itself seems to work fine.[/QUOTE]

Just a little heads up. Those "blue" hard drives are notorious for failing, so be careful, and be ready to backup at the slightest problem.

Read about raw denim, a whole new other world when you're into denim fashion. ;D

But if you sweat a lot don't the jeans start to smell really bad...and after 6 months...wow

I'm gonna go look it up now

There are tricks to get around that, and you'll think I'm joking, but putting your jeans in the freezing to eliminate smell is 1 way. :D

Would you mind posting a pic of the inside of this? Please and thank you.
I actually own one myself. I'll post ones I took a few weeks ago.

Don't have any pictures of the vinyls themselves, but they're all colored according to the EP. Really nice vinyl set.

nice to see some thrice fans around here, that looks sick.

It is very nice and the vinyls themselves look really nice (Fire is red, Water is blue, Air is clear, and Earth is like a swirl pattern) I got it on clearance from Hot Topic for $30, which is I think half off.
 
Apologize for some of the blurry pictures (turned off the flash on my point and shoot):

Garmin Forerunner 305

I planned on getting the 405 but the reviews were terrible. I'll probably end up upgrading to the 505 if they can combine form with functionality.



Transformers 2 and Ghost in the Shell Blu-Ray



360 MVC2 TE, courtesy of the Gamestop sale. I may buy another so I can have one for the collection and another dual-mod. I think this is stick number 13 or 14. My collection is nowhere as grand as Yes Boss or Markman's, lol.

Some retro stuff. I also just bought a new NES, mine was busted after trying to make in regionfree. It worked for about an hour, but after popping in a new game I just get a gray screen. I cleaned the thing inside out, fixed the 72 pins connector, but nothing...dead.

You'll probably see the NES pic in a few days when it arrives.

Sweet pickups. Got my Dad a 2600 recently and we played Superman for a few hours. Ah childhood memories...

I notice you're a UKer... where do you order from to get releases on a Saturday?

I've been ordering from Amazon, but they only seem to send Blu-rays out on a Saturday, meaning I'm lucky to get them on the Monday.

Yeah sounds kinda silly.
Into denim fashion?
I think me and my practical Levis are gonna stay outta this one.

I may pick up Dante's Inferno today though. I loved the demo.

You guys never heard of raw denim? I'd say most jeans I see here in Sweden are raw (the Nudie jeans pictured above are swedish, crap quality sadly)... yes you have to wear them for a few months without washing, but they look awesome. And they don't become as filthy as you'd think if you treat them right. I can't stand the look of most pre-washed jeans, that's why I always buy raw.

I just figured most guys just buy regular jeans. But I'm in my 30s so I dunno.
I giggle when I see that 300$ jeans thread though.
Not tryin to hate anyway so no worries.

I've been looking everywhere for them. Finally, I stumbled across them at my local grocery store in the checkout lane and grabbed a bunch :D

Oh, and they are delicious!

If you're buying jeans for $300 they're most likely raw denim from Japan, which means they're of superior quality and can last you decades, looking better and better the longer you wear them... wouldn't you say that's quite a bargain? If you're buying jeans of lesser quality for that price, then that's just stupid.

Don't worry dude, people that dont get it will never get it. I only get raw jeans, most of them happen to be Japanese. I can spot those cheap levis most people wear from a mile away. Hey some people like to buy really expensive wine that only lasts them an evening, I would rather take that 300 and invest in some great clothing that will last me a long time.

It's wicked snappy, and it comes from the most unlikely of places. You can read more about buying one in the D-pad watch thread here:http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=387333

It's kind of a tossup now if I like my arcade stick or this more :lol

Anyway it's from Mad Catz portable rock band drum set. All the drum pads plug into this little USB converter box, and well... if you just unplug all the drum pads you get what's in the picture :lol Best part is I don't even own Rock Band 2 or any other GH game other than 3.

EDIT: BEATEN! Damnit D:
