NeoGAF JANUARY Pick-Up Post!(Show us your gaming/non-gaming goods!)

Happy New Year!

How was your holiday season? We've had this thread here at NeoGAF for over a year now... lets see it continue well into 2008 and beyond! Just think about it... soon enough we'll see pictures of all those 'big' games that we're waiting for! + tons more!

New year's resolutions? Nothing in particular... How about for one month, I would like it if this thread go on without having a dumb fuck who posts a hotlinked image or some google image.... -_-

Use this month's thread to show your pick ups for January!

Post ACTUAL pictures! No one cares to see pictures they can find on google images....

December was mostly a month to continue buying back games I sold when I needed money during my "poor" period, so I did a lot of inventory building.



Sadly, it was also the month the legacy of a classic game was raped and pillaged, and then raped again underneath the soft glow of Christmas moonlight.

THIS month, I have already ordered:




+ Phantom Hourglass trading mini, all of which should arrive sometime this or next week.

And I have pre-ordered:



+ I already imported:

(should arrive soon)

Not really January. It's more like X-Mas and after X-Mas hual. Don't mind the LV bag. It was a present for my girlfriend

Here's the latest batch of stuff that I've gotten:

Love the cover for MGS2: SOL Vol. 2. I like how the greys go quite well with the reds of Vol. 1

Lupin the 3rd Figure:


Just got Shoot 'Em Up today, Sora & the Judge were belated gifts (Christmas & Birthday):

Ecstasy is way better than coke, though. Too bad I have a bad history with it!

Here's what I got in December. I'm still waiting for a buch of stuff including Mass Effect and Eye of Judgment, so this is an incomplete account of my spending habits.

Last batch from December. I have been really disappointed with PC games lately so I'm switching to handheld awesomeness.

Edit: Switched image host.

Dark Kingdom ain't that bad :p Co-op increases its awesome factor as well since I have a little brother. :p

Plus it was terribly cheap

My first January purchase will be Radiohead once I get a chance to get to BB. Here's some of my Christmas haul though.

Games/DVDs from my wife's family.


(Non-gaming related)
Rick Nash RBK jersey from my wife. My parents made me a floor lamp out of hockey sticks and puck-shaped couch pillows. Now I just need to get that basement finished.

My December pick-ups. Not much this time, as I need to cut back on what I buy.



NOTE: I bought Assassin's Creed for $40 at Best Buy.
