Got myself a new keyboard (Das Keyboard 4 Professional) and a copy of the new Wolfenstein.
My fingers are still used to my old keyboard so it'll probably take me a few days to properly adjust to this, it's a real pleasure to type on though. (I went with the browns).
[Edit: Holy crap. Watch Dogs just arrived too]
Yeah, reviewers really liked it. The 10 year warranty is crazy. I wanted to get the Corsair 1200i, but that was $350. The G2 was $230 and had 100 more watts.

Me neither. It's the standart edition I ordered from Amazon UK, so I was a little surprised.
Maybe you can find it on iTunes or something.

The original Dragon Ball is simply amazing, holds up much better then DBZ IMO

Digital Soundtrack:
Poster: X-Men: Days of Future Past (Doublesided) 27"x40"
Now I need to frame the poster.

They were $149.99 at Best Buy so I thought, "Why not?"
I love Sennheiser but so far I'm underwhelmed.I know they require burn in, just as my past Senn's have needed, so here's hoping they improve.
edit: meh, returned them. They were terrible, sound quality only slightly beater than beats.

My recent pickups.
The Shadowgate and DC pad both look rarely if ever used.
*as a side note anybody know what the numbers on the back of the NES games denote? The 28 in this case.

More May pickups.
I normally don't buy back-up systems, but just couldn't pass up on a brand new PSP E1004 for €50.
Also, never played a Shining series game, so I'll finally get to see what it is all about.

I'll have to look into it. Tried to buy TLOU: Last Behind soundtrack from Amazon a while ago, and it wasn't available for those living outside of NA. =/ And Amazon UK doesn't seem to have the Wolfenstein OST available separately.

Starbucks here are not like Starbucks in the States or the Netherlands for that matter. 
Gaming is the least of the activities considered weird or taboo in the States, but perfectly fine here. Here you'd see folks holding 3DS tournaments at Starbucks, audiophiles holding gathering with their portable amplifiers, DACs (and some not so portable ones like huge tube amps), among the few examples I can think of. I know, coz I've been to these gatherings, and the Starbucks here are more than accommodating to these types of activities. So you can see, gaming on a laptop at Starbucks here is hardly considered weird. In fact, you'd see tons of laptop-wielding coffee drinkers here because we have free WiFi connectivity and tons of power outlets in all our Starbucks.
That being said, I'm here coz it's jam-packed on the road, so rather than joining in the torture of driving back home now, might as well hang back and have a cuppa.
And no, I'm not gaming. I'm testing them out. Although I'm inclined to game on them seeing how much more time I have to burn while waiting for road traffic to clear.

I'm not sure this mythical place actually exists. Sounds too good to be true...

Come to Malaysia.
Just don't bring an iMac or a full desktop in. That is frowned upon ANYWHERE.
As proof:-

The Jordan 1s are so clean! People are sleepin' on em!
Carmines are a must too. I got mine as well
This is my first post in one of these threads (I usually just lurk) lol but I got Transistor and I got into the playstation Now beta.
I also got Stick it to the man (super fun!), Bound by Flame, and Child of light.
I also picked up Wolfenstein no actual picture of it, just the card because my brother's borrowing it since I beat it on Uber.
Got a new Batman piggy bank for my spare change
Got a bonsai skin for my ps4
Also got some new posters; Watch Dogs, Batman, and some Zelda ones (thanks club Nintendo!)
Oh also almost forgot got these bad boys too!
Thats about it for now, just gotta wait until Watch dogs and Mario Kart 8

About every 3-4 years I go nuts on Jordan releases, get way more pairs than I could ever wear and then purge...
rinse and repeat is in full effect in 2014 thus far

Decent haul this month. Picked up some Vita games on sale. The anime is from ACen and Amazon.
I'm not a fan of most of Makoto Shinkai's work but I loved The Garden of Words. Nice purchase.
I have a DAS model S and my only complaint is the glossy finish. It gets dirty easily and never looks clean.
I didn't know they had a new model, but damn if that isn't the sexiest keyboard I have ever seen. They advertise a Anodized aluminium top panel on there site and your pictures look amazing. My only complaint is the forced media options as those would be essentially useless for me.
Its also difficult to justify a new keyboard as mechanical keyboards with great build quality essentially last for life.

I just finished Transistor on Steam and i hope you enjoy it as well.

Busy morning at the Sunday markets today.
I am particularly chuffed with the bottom two games. Mint copy of Power Strike II and a brand new copy of Battletoads (never been opened or played).
I had to get Return to Zork for a dollar too.
"Want some rye? Corse ya do!"

Oh i for sure am, the game is so beautiful I loved Bastion and this is no disappointment, getting a hang of the battle systems kinda tough but still awesome!
I've picked up a bunch of stuff over the last few months so there's a lot of stuff here that I got a while back.
Okay so first I have Princess Mononoke, The Cat Returns and Pom Poko on Blu-ray

Tales of Symphonia: Chronicles Collector's Edition
I hear ya. My brother has the same model and whilst it feels wonderful to type on and is the reason I started looking towards the Das keyboards myself, I wasn't so keen on the glossy finish for the same reason. The top panel on this Das 4 really is fantastic though, the thing is rock solid, not a smudge in sight and definitely made to last. Very happy with it.
One of my all time favourite anime series and directors!. I bought it on blu-ray back in March as well but I haven't gotten around to watching it just yet.
Not sure if you were aware but: http://www.animenewsnetwork.co.uk/news/2014-04-07/anime-limited-to-re-author-durarara - May be of interest to you since you appear to have the same set

Ha thanks! I haven't actually seen the show, I picked it up because it sounded pretty cool! That's encouraging to know it's one of your faves! I look forward to watching it. I heard about the issues that the discs had so I still haven't seen it yet. The Bebop set they released also has some minor issues which is a shame.
Dat Titanfall figure :0
SH Figuarts Son Goku
Nice! My friend got me the SSJ Vegeta one from comicon a couple years ago. He nearly shit when I told him what it was going for now. They're good figures.

Yay, time to find a job.
No worries. If you like Durarara!! when you come to watching it I'd recommend having a look at Baccano! too if you haven't seen that before. Very similar types of shows and from the same people as well. Hope you enjoy!
Congrats! ^^

Received that patch after putting in the 5 hardest hours of my life doing a Goruck Light in Philadelphia yesterday. An absolutely amazing experience that completely kicked my ass. If you need a physical and mental challenge, a Goruck event will satisfy your desire in spades!
