nice shinshoryuken. I have a KRP-500M also. Had it since early/mid last year. Best display ever. I patched mine with the ISFccc patch :D makes it even better. (especially if you have a meter to calibrate it or have someone do it for you) If you haven't got it yet you should get up on it. I posted mine in the set up thread.


Yeah the krp-500m can't be touch in terms of image quality.

I'm still debating if I should patch mine or not, did it make a huge different?

I only play games on it that is sensitive to input lag, most of the time I play on the LCD.

Got DeathSmiles the other day and I'm enjoying it immensely. Espgaluda II Black Label LE should be awesome when I get it in. I need to look in a wall mount that I can turn vertical for shmups though.

I saw this yesterday and couldn't help myself. Now it sits in my home, waiting to be framed:

It's an animation cel from the excellent SUPERMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES episode "Knight Time".

It's signed by all four producers on that episode: Bruce Timm, Alan Burnett, Paul Dini, and Glen Murakami.

The best thing about the cell is that it's from a sequence where Superman is dressed up as Batman in order to disguise the fact that Batman has gone missing. So really, it's like having a cell of Superman AND Batman! :D
Wow that's amazing. I would love to have something like that. Such a great episode too.

Make sure to pick up the US edition of DS too if you can.

EspII goddamn that price is rape. I just paid 95 bucks plus bank fees from CAVE's store, but that's only for people in the country so I dunno.

They didn't when I ordered my Japanese 360 from them, so I'm hoping they will when they ship the game next month. I've been doing this for months and won't stop till someone draws a kitty on my package. :lol

I will if I can't play online with my buddy using the JP version, going to put this one in the free to a good home thread when I can get a LE edition of it. Figure it'd be a nice gift to whoever claims it. :D

It really is, but I didn't have many options in importing since Play-Asia and other places almost insta-filled their pre-orders. I wanted the Limited Edition though so I guess I have to pay some sort of premium. :lol

How good are they? i'm searching a good one. Problem is that most of the heat develops under the top left corner (graphic card) of my notebook and not in the middle and in most instances the coolers have a fan in the middle. I don't mind a loud fan noise, i just want as much cooling as possible.

Decent cooling fans. Depends how hot ur laptop gets and the size but they should get the job done bought them at best buy for $21.00+tax each.

Too bad there's no CD release, but better than nothing. Now he just has to release the Lunar Remix version of Crop Circles' "Lunar Civilization". Guess nobody knows what I'm talking about...

I thought the following words were going to be "don't have a record player." :lol Anyways they sound much better on vinyl, depending on your set up of course, so that's one reason. I need to pick up The Con one of these days.

Yeah that's what I heard but yes I do not have a record player. I'm thinking of picking up a Sony one off of eBay.

Some stuff. For those wondering if the Guiness thing is any good: no it's not. It's aimed at young gamers, the layout is completely fucked up and the info is not very well researched, lot of mistakes and omissions.

after all those years, i finally managed to take the plunge and purchase a PS3, white PSP-3000 and and HTC HD2 cellphone. i'm not a fan of WinMo after using Android and iPhone OS X, but i'll give it a shot before returning it.

what good games do you recommend for the PS3 since i'm a PS3 virgin, anything but sport games please, thanks!

Both Uncharted games. That would be a great start, I suppose. Great games, you will enjoy it. After that... uhm... maybe Metal Gear Solid 4? It's MGS. Come on, you can't do something wrong with Tactical Espionage Action (and some fucked up story, but I like that). If you like RPG's: Final Fantasy XIII comes out in a few weeks. And if you like First Person Shooters, Killzone 2 should make it for you. These are only a few games, PS3 has much more cooler games, like Valkyria Chronicles. You already have a 360? Then aim for some of the exklusivs, like for example Valkyria Chronicles. It's so beautiful, I want to eat it. And don't forget Demon's Souls!

i'm all over FF13. also i was under the impression Valkyria Chronicles is a PS3 exclusive. tanks for the recommendations, i'll make sure to pick up Uncharted 2.
 
Today was first and only time I ever asked a Gamestop employee to search for a used-game for me on the computer, and voile:

He did not. Why would I care about that? It's like asking Thomas Edison to sign a camcorder. No, I plan on doing something much more apt. If I play my cards right, LESLIE SWAN IS GONNA SIGN IT! :D
 
This is my first time posting. Always been a fan of the thread.

First pick-up of the month was an ASUS MS226H monitor. Love it so far.

And just today, Endwar Bundles for $20 each. Don't care much for the game, but 20 is a good price for the wireless headsets.

Amazing picture guys! Awesome stuff.

ONE QUICK QUESTION.

I have never posted stuff before (of my assets). So can I post picture of stuff I have bought this month and last month and a few months before all together? Just wondering.
 
Finally picked up the hoard of parcels that got sent to my parents' place, after they all got delivered at once (probably being hoarded because of the damn ice):

nxw2rn.jpg


Bayonetta: Climax Edition (yeah, I've been waiting for over two weeks :()
Eneloop batteries w/ charger (thanks for the tip GAF!)
Let's Tap (got it for a fiver. Most difficult part of it so far is the menu system :lol)
Air: The Motion Picture (Been told it's better than the series, <3 Key stuff)
Classic Word Games (a Christmas present from a friend. It'll probably beat my gift to her - I got her Episodes from Liberty City
only to be reminded she sold her 360 several months ago :lol
)
