Here are some of my favorite pickups from November! Most recent to oldest from Nov.

I got a box full of goods last week from my friend at Nike. What could be inside? 10 amazing pairs of sneakers...

This stuff is so sick. Concords are timeless, but the new Megatron trailers early? Clean Air Max 97s?! So sick.

More good stuff. UNDFTD Hyperdunks, Premium Air Max 1s, Lebron Xs and more...

I'm so excited to finally start this. <3

Had to get the console for the collection too.

Got some extra ones for work & friends. Xbox One launch was fun times.

I got to play through Dead Rising 3, which I absolutely enjoyed!

Special artwork for the new Mad Catz Killer Instinct Arcade FightStick TE2 for Xbox One!

My mini Vewlix 1/12th scale arcade machine models showed up!

Haven't tried NFS yet, however LEGO Marvel Super Heroes is excellent. Got it for my daughter.

Unfortunately since launch, my PS4 has been collecting dust. Lack of titles I want to play. However the UI is such a big upgrade from PS3. Love it.

I'm a sucker for fighting games. What can I say?

I'm also a sucker for old school cartoons and merchandise lol.

Awesome book/magazine. <3

It's been awhile, but BlizzCon was back in town! So I went and...

Got the goodies, played some Diablo III: Reaper of Souls (also got into the BETA)... and...

Got to hang out with the wonderful Evelyn Lin during BlizzCon!

Couldn't resist this retro phone case. Now we've seen a lot of these in the past, but this one actually feels like an NES controller (plastic wise), the buttons are rubber however but it's cool you can press em' in and stuff.

Air Jordan V Laneys! Blue and Yellow! Matches with my Mad Catz gear and Chun-Li stick!

Needed a HD webcam for streaming, so I got one of the best ones for the job!

My friend in SG kept sending me awesome pics of her wearing our gear, here's one of em. So cute <3

That was my November pretty much. I expect Dec. to be just as awesome. Are you ready?

meppi · Dec 1, 2013

Turned out to be a very good weekend for me.

Even though the shop messed up my PS4 order and I wasn't getting one till January, they called as someone cancelled a secondary system.

On top of that I got a new TV.
Got my very first plasma when I got my PS3 years ago, so now that they are going to stop making them, I felt like upgrading it a bit.

Before:

After:

Astonished by the picture quality. Loved my old set as well, but it had started to fade in black levels. This one is pretty much perfect in every way I can think off. Best TV I've ever seen so far, so I couldn't be happier.

Yes Boss! · Dec 1, 2013

Yay for a new Month!

Should be my clean-up month...getting games I missed earlier this year (for cheap!) and heading back to so cal for the holidays to pick up a ton of stuff that has collected over the last 15 months!

All I need to do is replace my XRGB 2 Plus with a Framemeister and I'm all set for the next X amount of years.

Until I find a new house though at which point I'll upgrade my surround system as well.
Then I'll hand the TV on the wall and have a bit more room to place my AES and Super Famicom and PS2s.

ArchAngel · Dec 1, 2013

It's knackening!

ashado · Dec 1, 2013

Here are most of my pick-ups from November. This month should be just as good, if not better.

The Moto X is not pictured since that's what I used to take these pictures but I got a customized one with a turquoise back, white front, and silver accents.

Console games

PSN pickups

HD upgrade for my PS3

HDMI switch - was getting tired of having to get up to swap inputs between my PS3 and 360

PC pickups from the thrift shop - crummy shape, but both games were new inside

The Killing Joke hardcover

Dragon Age: Origins hardcover guide, brand new

Link Between Worlds 3DS XL

Not pictured: Ace Attorney HD Trilogy (iOS) - yeah, it's a crummy port, but $5 for all three games makes up for it.

Bam Bam Baklava · Dec 1, 2013

cuz in the tv episodes I saw tux and sailor moon barely even made out if at all (hazy memory). and then I see THAT cover! lol so long innocence!

Evenball · Dec 1, 2013

So normally I've been working on my small collection of Video Games, but today I just had to buy this board game when I saw it:

This has clearly never been played, it is missing one piece, but everything else is in original form. The plastic bag on top is still sealed. I just thought it would look cool in my gaming closet. Who knows, it may be worth something one day, but I doubt it.

OverHeat · Dec 1, 2013

Well I decided to upgrade....damn why did I test drive :s lol
Mazda 3 gt sedan 2011

I'd say she probably plays angry birds and/or candy crush. Here's my pickup for the year. hopefully the last ones.

I picked up a ps4 as well, but didn't post it for last month's pick ups. I'm still new to this.
