I dig your style. On another note, I was totally appalled at the $48 striped hoodie I wanted at the GAP today. I make money, but fuck if I'm spending it on a fucking $48 striped hoodie at the GAP.

Pickup from about 20+ years ago :) Just found my stash of comics and cards in my parents garage earlier today. Forgot Double Dragon had a comic book through Marvel. Also found my Mortal Kombat comic book. If any of you remember it was from the advertisement that used to pop up during the demo screen on the MK arcade. Here are two pics of my findings. Will post all the video game stuff later.

Man, that art on the Play magazine is probably going to do more bad than good. Makes the game look like some sort of tentarape sim. Yeah, they can open the magazine and see it's not, but, people will just glance and be off-put.

Steam pickups this week. Killing Floor I actually Pre-purchased, but never really got around to playing it until now. So awesome that all of this was only $45.

Generally don't post in the pickup threads unless I get something totally awesome. So here we go.

Complete Don Hertzfeldt collection including the preordered I Am So Proud Of You DVD along with an authentic piece of film strip cut from his collection (its cut from I Am So Proud Of You). I also grabbed the 'Rocket' print from Everything Will Be OK.

I'm so excited to go through all of these in DVD quality and not tiny resolution flash videos.

I've never had a single joystick and don't particularly care for them, but for some reason I really like this one. Maybe it's just the picture though. I kinda like the regular Neo-Geo stick too. Nice find at any rate.

It is the garish colors and old design that I like. They did a good job of getting the Astro City feel down. And they can be had for pretty cheap new (around $50-75). Original Neo Geo stick is my favorite as well...I don't think I'll ever like anything more.

Wormdundee,

Cool pick-up. He was a recent grad at my college back in the late nineties and would show up quite a bit. Nice guy.

Excellent pick up. Looking to pick one up as well, where did you get yours?
Canadacomputers.com

Had a hell of a time finding it being sold IN Canada.

'Cause something that expensive I'd get interest charged on it.

But then I found Canadacomputers. It's awesome. In total it cost ~$450 Canadian, Tax, and shipping and everything. And I ordered it Thursday, and it came today (monday). Awesome. :)

Alright GAF, here come a bunch of pics of my dorm room that nobody probably cares about, but too bad, I'm sharing anyway.

My kitchen:
Dormkitchen.jpg


My small bathroom (where the door wont even open all the way because the counter is too close):
DormBathroom.jpg


My dorm room (corner room so double windows, but this awesomeness is offset by the huge concrete pillar supporting the building. Also, top floor of the building so the ceilings are like 13 feet high, so I get lots of light) plus a pic of my mediocre dorm room gaming setup(PC/PS3/360, logitech x540's(they were like 60 bucks, I know they sound bad but they get the job done), Sharp Aquos 32" 720P, and Acer 22" monitor(1680x1050):

Pathetic attempt to pick up Metal-GAF's recommendations on music, all I could find was Symphony X's "Paradise Lost"(in two cities and 12 different music stores/used cd places). Think I'll have to order that stuff online instead. Also, Opeth's "Watershed", "Deliverance", and "The Candlelight Years" (compilation of the first three albums I think):
Music.jpg


My textbooks/coursekit/book that is a compilation of articles/excerpts from publications by a bunch of scientists with commentary by Richard Dawkins(texts include organic chem, inorganic chem, history of mathematics and a first year astronomy text for easy marks):
Textbooks.jpg


Sonic and Knuckles XBLA:

Batman Arkham Asylum (thank you Walmart Canada for the $40 firesale[43% off new launch price]) and Edge Magazine from june-october, courtesy of my brother :

Few pick-ups from over the weekend:

Apple in-ear earbuds. Necessary evil (not too keen on the sound, but it has a mic that works for the phone):

Pink DSi for my daughter's birthday! She's turning 8 tomorrow! O_O!

Pics, please, of the system unboxed and of high-quality, once your daughter gives you permission! I've not yet gotten an american system but the pink is the one I'm thinking of going for.

What da hell!? I'd be really upset if a boxset arrived for me in that condition. Where'd you order it from?

It's from ebay new and sealed, looked perfect in the photo but the packaging wasn't exactly great so it's been crushed in the mail.

I'd be more pissed if I wasn't going to make all my money back by selling the other stuff that was bundled with it in the auction, so the bourne set was pretty much free anyway.
