[Spiderjericho]

Hey Mark, you have any extras of the SFIV mook? I had the chance to buy it but opted not to...derr...

 

[Dead Prince]

February will be an excellent month!

I didn't hear about it coming over until the beginning of the month:lol
I really hope the game does well so that we start getting more releases.

^ My big pickup was this new Panasonic Plasma for the other bedroom. It's 42" so I went with the cheaper 720p model, since it doesn't make a whole lot of difference at the size and it was on sale.

Very nice stuff quality-wise, quite nice.

 

[Kai Ozu]

Gundam 00 first season complete! The last blu-ray is fantastic!

 

[YagizY]

My first set of turntables!

Awesome pickup.

I have also been thinking of upgrading my TV situation. I currently have a 720p 32inch, but would like something 42-50inch. Is there a general rule of thumb for when a 1080p would make sense? I don't want to spend the extra money on a 1080 if I don't get real added value. I would be using it for PS3 games, BluRays, and a basic HD cable package.

Heh, I cant wait to see who will win at the end of this month. More Street Fighter pickups or Killzone pickups?

I will be helping the economy by getting both.

Mai Pickups so far.

Gundam 00 first season complete! The last blu-ray is fantastic!

How much did that cost? Japanese Blu-Rays are usually murder on the wallet, and you got a whole box of them! :lol

Woo, thanks MM!

The manly pink represents the fighting Valentines spirit, or something :lol

No pickups for me in Jan, was saving for the SF4 haul this month XD I'm also waiting on a HTC Touch Diamond after not upgrading my phone for 4 years D:

 

[MarkMan]

No, thank you for the new banner!

 

[Archie]

Apologies for the terrible camera phone picture. This is technically my January haul, but I was to lazy to post in the other thread.

-Skate 2
-bass guitar (Epiphone Les Paul)

 

[Router]

Awesome new banner.

 

[Omikaru]

Been somewhat of a busy start to the month, but I'm gonna slow considerably down until SFIV (and possibly Dawn of War II) now.

 

[Deacan]

I just picked up Red Alert 3, but I purchased it digitally, so am not sure how to post a picture.

 

[sixteen-bit]

Work in progress. It's wobbly as hell, but hey, it's my first attempt; I'm allowed to make mistakes. :lol
I spray painted the underside of the lexan sheet with matte black paint. It looks very nice; the black shines through the clear top for a glossy, reflective effect.

 

[DJ GT-S]

WHAT!? It's out!?

 

[Patrick Bateman]

[DarkStar]

I love my new speedlite <3

 

[aznpxdd]

2009 Audi A4, picked her up yesterday.

 

[ymmv]

No interesting PS360 releases in January so I started looking on marketplaats.nl and Ebay for cheap PS2 games to fill the holes in my PS2 games collection. I'm becoming more interested in RPGs and since I'm now able to play US imports, I bought a couple of games that never saw a European release like Grandia III and Xenosaga I.

 

[Pojo]

Thanks for reminding me that I need both Shadow Hearts 3 and Tales of the Abyss.

How is SH3, really? I heard it was a huge letdown after SH2.

No idea, I have yet to play all of those titles. To be honest: when I buy PS1/2/GC titles, it's so I can add them to the collection. I simply don't have the time to play them. There are exceptions: I'm currently playing FFXII (I had stopped two years ago mid-game, I'm now going to finish it. But when I'm done with FFX12 I switch to KZ2 and RE4.

 

[Ninja Kn1ght]

Picked up quite a few cool things in the last couple of weeks.


I've been kinda obsessed with Fighting games lately, so I've been fleshing out my collection, hence I picked up King of Fighters 02, Street Fighter Alpha Anthology and Guilty Gear Accent Core.

I've been loving my Dreamcast again in recent times so I snapped a new controller, since my current ones are showing their age and a brand-new factory sealed copy of the awesome Jet Set Radio.

I like Collector's Edition games and I saw Age of Conan and Alone in the Dark CEs selling for really good pries lately (EUR16 and EUR7 respectively) and thought they'd be nice.

Dissidia Final Fantasy Limited Edition Soundtrack:

Super Awesome Super Famicom Wii Classic Controller:

Some more games:

And maybe the coolest thing of all:

And the first thing from Feb:

Arcade Mania, it's a light read but interesting.

 

[Dead Prince]

 

[2DMention]

Wow SO1 has better boxart in EU land.

 

[Linkified]

You must tell me where you got Valkyria Chronicles in the UK.

 

[oatmeal]

I was GOING to buy a new guitar last night for my Rock Band set up. I had a dollar on me and was at the casino, put it into the penny slots and won 27 bucks. Figured hell, I just lowered the cost of the guitar for me by 26 bucks.

So in my excitement, I left my wallet on the slot machine...

PWNED.

 

[Boss Man]

Going to be a great month!

 

[Blutonium]

My dad got me a Samsung Syncmaster T220HD for my birthday, this monitor is AWESOME. Goes nicely with my i7 + 260GTX I bought not so long ago

 

[Ace R.]

D:

you think that wallscroll is on sale yet?

 

[EvilMario]

It'll probably be a while before I play it, but for $25, I couldn't pass it up.

 

[Reich]

u should have. mushroom men isnt a musthave title.

 

[Haeleos]

Courtesy of my boy MarkMan. Thanks Mark!

Hey MarkMan, can I be your boy too? I like free stuff.

 

[VGChampion]

Not must have but a good game nevertheless.

 

[Urban Scholar]

I nearly wet myself when someone sold me BOF PSP at work for $20, take that USD to pound conversion.


Probably going to by my only game pick ups for awhile....maybe, depends on that tax return: D

 

[CAVE343]

Is this based on anything? It's phenomenal.

street fighter iv if you aren't joking

street fighter iv if you aren't joking

I wasn't joking. The dudes looked a little too small for it to be SFIV. It was like a cross between Team Fortress and Bill Sienkiewicz. Fucking awesome.
