For sure. I love seeing the photography of stuff in here, mainly because it's stuff I like, but also it's always done so well.

Seriously.

Nature shots can look nice and all but it's so cliche. Seeing good video game photography is new to me, so I'm mesmerized by it. If someone started a blog with just fantastic video game related shots I'd check it everyday.

Sorry, back on topic.
 
Picked up the Achieva ShiMian QH270-IPSBS frop the Rock, Paper, Shotgun article a few weeks back, very happy with it. No dead pixels and only a little light bleed

Old 22" 1920x1200 in the background. 27" 2460x1440 is a big step up :)

Jesus what gpu setup do you have to run that? Surely you are running pc games on that.

I'm using a single overclocked 7970 at the moment, seems to handle it fine :) and yes on the PC games as well, the monitor has no scaler, and only a dual link DVI as input built in so i have to use the gpu for all that.

Sorta counts as a pickup - I temporarily converted my Third Strike setup to Red Earth.

Pretty awesome game - kinda wished they explored this style of fighting game a bit more. Choose from 4 characters that gain xp, levels - fight through 8 or so bosses. Has a password system too! I already switched it back to 3rd Strike though - next up is JoJo!

Also picked up Avenging Spirit for 3DS VC. This will have to do until I find the arcade PCB.

I just bought Howl's Moving Castle and Castle in the Air on Thursday.

How is House of Many Ways related to the other 2 books? I know Castle in the Air is a sequel to Howl's Moving Castle.

I really dont know but Howl, Sophie,
Morgan (their son)
and Calcifer are in it.
 
A bunch of goodies arrived in the mail! :D
Never played this. Please don't hurt me. Now that I own it I will devour this game.

More SHMUP goodness for the SNES.

Worth every penny. The 10,000 pennies it cost me. God damn it feels good to have this back.

Very excited to play this one too. Bonus memory lane dust cart haha.

Beat Journey to Silius a few weeks ago so on payday I ordered its case. For every game I beat I order its snazzy case and holy hell is it nice. Bonus cat cameo! You can even read her name :) They take the effort to remove the plastic inside and even lay foam down to secure the cart down, very nice.

That's a universal game case modded? I need some for my NES games, where do you buy them?

So this just came in today and I forgot I ordered it a while back

Truth to be told, I'm not a fan of this movie's ost compare to the second movie, The Dark Knight. I would of cancel this order before it shipped out but forgot about it and now it's here. I'll keep it in my collection and listen to it again probably at the end of the year. I would of love to own TDK vinyl if there was one out available.

The beginnings of my PC Build arrived today, an Antec Nine Hundred case and an ASUS DVD burner. Motherboard and memory are on the way next! I hope to have the Full Build finished by the end of next month. XD

That's a nice build.

I'm currently in the process of building up a new PC. I got the same RAM sticks as you, and let me tell ya - they're awesome. I also have the same WD 1TB HDD, but haven't installed it yet.

And wow, a 3GB 660 ti? Crazy, lol. I just settled for the 2GB version.

Picked up the last copy of Kid Icarus at the local Best Buy, and combined that with the B2G1 3DS games deal.
I had $35 in gift cards with me, so I was able to get:

Mario 3D Land
Kid Icarus: Uprising
Chronicles: Samurai Warriors (was $9.99 so I got it free in the deal)

all for $25.

I got into Gradius 3 in the halcyon days of.... 2010. What surprised me is that even being 20 years old, the audio and video packed a techno-punch. Felt like the 1991 version of ZOE2 or something. And that classic Gradius gameplay. The slowdown is there to be merciful :p

^^ Project Divas everywhere ;)

5th of September, and I've already bought too much.

Finally, I have a PS3 Slim 160GB with GT5 and Driving Force GT. Driving in a Lamborghini on a Nurburgring with this wheel=priceless. I also bought Sleeping Dogs - a very nice game. That keyboard is for my iPad (it will come handy in school).

Oh, and about Final Fantasy VI. I recently purchased a PSN edition, and after playing it I just HAD to have a retail copy on my desk. It's a japan version. The cart is pretty much in perfect condition. Box - not so much, but it's still fine.
 
To accompany the red one purchased earlier in the thread. I think I like the blue more but only under a strong light when it appears to be a lighter shade of blue.

An awesome friend of mine (wonder if he's reading this) brought me the artbook from Japan, while Shadow of the Damned was a really cheap purchase I'm enjoying a lot.

The poster in the background is not a September pick-up :p
