After thoroughly trashing the original iPad and the concept of tablets when it came out, lots of hands-on time with the 2 has gradually changed my mind, which finally brought me to today:

I haven't posted in a while. Here are a few things that I had picked up this month.

Dark Souls Collector's Edition... Prepare to Die.


This store called GamerDoc was doing a 80% off of used games, if you bought more then 10, before this current generation. I spent only $40 bucks.


My Elephants. I'm a huge elephant collector. I can't remember how much they cost me but I receive a deal on them.


Shouts out to my boy Kineda and SpeedBrkr for developing this amazing shirt together.




My shirts just came in. The mail lady just dropped them off!

Haha I was the same way. Why would I want a bigger version of my phone? That tune changed.

So, why would you? (also I don't have a smartphone, too expensive, so I got an ipod touch instead.)

are you like rich?

If I was, my posts would never end. Or never happen, cos I would be buying too much.

Oddly enough, I felt I underspent at this year's show. If you read my last post in the thread I linked above, I almost did some crazy auction bidding and came OH so close to picking up a BIOS-modded NeoGeo AES.

So close...

Oh my lord, do you know where she got it? This is my childhood, all it needs is some Oregon Trail and I would be able to die happily.

Which model is this?
The Vaio Z 2011 model. The only configurable upgrade that I couldn't justify to myself was $1100 for the 512GB SSD.

How is it? It's so expensive but so sexy @@
Glorious. =) My only complaint is the amount of pre-installed software, but nothing that an MSDN subscription can't solve!

Been a good month so far. I had to use my phone for pics, but they didn't turn out too bad.
New desk finally:

New Game:

I also got a second hand Droid Incredible, which is really awesome coming from an Eris. I would take a pic of it, but it's my camera.

Bonus pic of my ghetto setup for before the desk came in and I wanted to play Forza. You can see some of the carnage that ensued while assembling the CSR and some of the carnage of the two year old I was babysitting:

Shiiiiiiiiit, forgot my new shirt:

Haha, how do you even see the screen with your hands on the wheel? Do you raise your monitor?


Yea for real lol,

I have a wheelstandpro + g27 and I didn't feel like taking off the wheel to use the M$ wheel so I put the wheel on my desk and it felt awful, I personally thought it was just the wheel compared to the g27 but when I use it at a lower level and angled nicely it changes the whole game. (M$ Wheel has weak FFB so I wasn't worried about it shaking/breaking stuff but I would be worried if I was you as the fanatec wheels have considerably stronger FFB)

Yep, using books for now, until I can get a more stable solution.

what pedals you using

I got the litho last month, I believe. The frame is new though. It's double mated, with one mat made of suede. Both the small mat and the frame itself are black and have a faux-leather look & feel about them.

Where did you get that frame? And how much? It looks awesome. I have 3 Halo arts I really want to get framed like this. :)

GF gone for the weekend, just me and Forza!


Stoffinator said:
How much is the wheel? I need one for the 360 for the Forza games.

€249,95 -without- pedals or a shifter. €299,- with the cheapest pedals.

Not cheap but I would definitely recommend it, works great with both GT5 and Forza.

I'm not gonna even try, lol! :(
Bought the dvd for $1 off of animeigo (Distributor of Urusei Yatsura) once they announce that the series will be OOP just recently. Will love to watch the whole series buts it next to nigh. I'm just happy I still have my copy of Beautiful Dreamer on dvd after all these years. One of my most favorite anime movie of all time and really fucking expensive now a days too. What a underrated masterpiece. ^_^

OMG DO WANT!

Edit: Holy crap! Just saw that it's listed at $366 currently on Amazon. Maybe I will just try to get the smaller boxset with just all of the albums.
