Probably my biggest waste of money this year (in a good way)
Long story short, I was looking for a replacement case for a busted controller. I ended up stumbling on one of those websites where they mod your controllers and stuff, and I ended up ordering a bunch of parts to spiff up my controller. Total waste of money (I'd rather not say how much I spent, although not hard to figure out), but I love it. The analogs, dpad, and buttons are all aluminum. I could've bought the aluminum triggers, but maybe eventually (lol). But yea, the analogs are slightly taller than the standard sticks, which is great, and the aluminum buttons are flatter and smoother than the stock buttons.
Edit: Oh, and the case has color shifting paint. Shifts from dark blue to purple in certain lights.

Heh. It's just a dpad with a joystick knob on it. Makes the 360 dpad slightly more functional, imo.
Bah to Magician Lord! Get a loose copy of Samurai Showdown II for a tenner or so online and have the ultimate test cartridge.

How long do you expect to play for without sleeping? Perhaps the war on drugs should turn its attention toward Blizzard...

Got some free games. Saved them from the burn pit. Also, a pretty cool post-card from my twin brother in San Fran.
is that a slip cover for Gears 2 GOTY (I know Halo CE: AE has one)? My PAL copy didn't have that back when I bought it. Some retailer exclusive or?

It's the GOTY edition. Comes with All Fronts Collection DLC card (you have to download it via XBL) which contains all the DLC for Gears 2. Enjoy!
Nah. Personal tastes, I guess, but it looks great in person.
It also feels 10x better than a standard stock controller in the way the analogs and buttons feel.

I like some of the things on that controller, where is this modding website you speak of?

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Mr. Driller G for the arcade cabinet!
Also got Snow Bros. 2 (with new elves!) and Atomic Runner Chelnov. Will post pics of those later.
Stop making me jealous, dammit!

Wow it took almost 8 weeks to arrive!
Good to see they're starting to arrive, mine have been a long time coming as well. Who knows, they might be waiting for me when I get back from work.
Hit up a flea market today. Got this for $25. I think I done good.
My man, you're living the dream. Hope you get hooked up cheaply and it works!
Even if it doesn't, I'd pay £25 to use it as an ornament.

If it doesnt (it does actually) I'll put it on a gold chain and wear it around my neck

How big a Medium is the shirt?
My height is 193cm, I'm slightly muscular with average weight and it fits perfectly, it's not too tight or small for being medium. If you are overweight the L shirt would be definitely better I guess, but I'm glad that I got M.
Here is a picture of the whole T-Shirt:

Got this, because I'm different and unique. And likely a weeaboo.
Only pickup today worth posting.
Mah man! *fist bump*

Long live the D!
The ridges on those analog sticks don't look like they'd be kind to your thumbs. Can you post the link to the site you purchased the parts from?

I'm sorry, what I think you meant to say was 'I have excellent taste'.
