32GB iPad 3.

Been on the fence about picking up the iPad3 or the Asus TF300T Transformer Tablet for about a week now. I bought the iPad as you can see but now I am not sure :( I had an iPad 2 so it probably makes more sense to at least try the transformer tablet and just sell if I don't like. My friend has one though which I think I can borrow for a few days so this may end up getting advertised by the weekend lol ><

Help gaf.

Got this on Thursday - forgot to post it! It's the Manchester City FC away shirt, you can see boring stock pics anywhere so I thought I'd zoom in to the impressive details!







Found this in town today. The first time I've ever seen it in a store, it wasn't too badly priced either (£30). Bought it without hesitation as it's £50+ on Amazon.



With that and Kingdom Hearts, I'll be busy.

Picked up this



I got the game for free on PS+, but it took up maybe a little bit too much HDD space - so when i saw that a retailer in town had this version with the artbook and everything for 149 kr (in dollars that's $20 i believe) i grabbed it pronto!

Stacked up high boxes of sticks I've gotten this year. Two of them are most recent.



I wonder who that signed stick is for? :)

Aw yeah, time for some good old fashioned FILM REVISIONISM. George Lucas, eat your heart out. :D



Completing my Rockman collection on GBA and SFC, plus some other games.





Bought some new copies of the PS2 Persona games 'cause I got that itch.



This guy actually came in May but for some reason I never put him up. Here we go!

Picked this up today. My old router needed re-setting at least 3 times per day in order to work. Was up and on-line in a matter of minutes.

Whoah. Im so jealous. I tried to get Katsuhiro Harada to sign some old Tekken 3 Poster I still had like 2 years ago at Gamescom, but didnt have the chance, since the Presentation was full.

Really wonder if I ever have the chance to meet him again... *lol*

Nevertheless. Only this one for now, Spice and Wolf 6, as well as Intrigues of Haruhi still didnt arrive.

I picked these up a few days ago.



I always wanted to try Lost on Shadow but wasn't willing to spend $30 on it. the $9 I paid is far more reasonable. The other one... c'mon!

Got this over the weekend:



Ma and Pa's old CRT and a new stand to handle the 200-pound beast.

When I was younger I always thought it would be a great TV to play SNES on, but mom was terrified of burn-in, so hooking up video games to this TV was strictly forbidden.



If playing games on this thing is wrong, I don't want to be right.
