NeoGAF AUGUST 2010 Pick-Up Post! (Real pics or BAN!) Show Us Your Gaming Goods!
- Thread starter MarkMan
- Start date
Saw this at the FYE across from the theater I saw Scott Pilgrim at the other day, passed on it thinking I could find it cheaper on the web. Researched it and found FYE's price was actually about half of what most websites carry it for, rushed back this morning.

Pickups for August. I haven't been in this month's thread so there are gonna be a few pics
Haul from the Goodwill store in my area. $4 total all with working serial keys
Castlevania HD for XBLA. This game solo is AWESOME for Podcast listening
Final Fight Double Impact for PSN. I was looking for a good coop game to play with the wife and she mentioned that she liked OG beatemups so at $5 on sale this was a no brainer
I forgot, I didn't have a 2nd DS3 for us to play with so I picked this up from a pawn shop. The Dynasty Warriors was mislabeled as the PSP version so I got that for a steal as well.

NGH - RB2.
What more can be said?
Picked up a Go 2nd hand that was quite cheap. Thought I would play it for 5 mins then chuck it in a drawer, but I've played it virtually every day I've had it. - Probably am using it more than my other PSPs.
Part of the reason I think, is because you can use a PS3 joypad with it, so now I can actually play my games properly.
I hate that Sony hasn't got all the games online though.
With that said, who needs any other games when you have DODONPACHI!!!

All of them were on a good sale and I decided to start with Infamous. Bioshock was a double dip since my 360 broke.
I don't know if I should open Judgment or let it sit with all my other Castlevania games :lol

How are you liking Castlevania Judgment? I have had the longest morbid curiosity about that game and at the current asking price, I'm thinking it's worth it.

That post just reminded that I have it sitting in my backlog. Not sure when I'll get around to it but considering the Fall games' onslaught is right around the corner, it might not be for a while. :lol
Street Fighter Guile Tee. Triumvir. $36.
I actually purchased this shirt a few weeks ago but haven't got around to posting it until now. Lately, I've been procrastinating to take pictures of my recent purchases, and even then, I don't take pictures of everything. Chalk it up to laziness. Anyway, I was glad that I held off on purchasing the Guile tee (I bought the Chun and Vega when Triumvir first launched it) since I like how it looks more so on this olive tee over white and/or black. Got quite a few compliments when I wore it yesterday to watch The Other Guys.

I like it quite a bit. The moveable thumb rest is awesome, as is the pinky-rest add-on. I like that you can change the weights around (I like 12g apparently) though I know thats nothing special. The buttons are delightfully clicky and loud.
I'm still trying to get used to the "sniper" button that sits right at the tip if your thumb but when I get it right, it's nifty.
My one complaint is I can't quite get it as long as I would like. Even with the palm section slid all the way back the heel of my hand still rest on my mousepad more than I would prefer. Not sure if it's a deal-breaker or not. Using the raised palm rest (4mm higher they say) helps a bit but I like the rubberized grip too.

Haven't even opened it yet and I may not for awhile. It cost me under 15 dollars new so I thought, hey, even if it's truly terrible I can have it for my Castlevania collection._dementia said:

How's Soejima's artbook? I told myself I shouldn't spend $45(including shipping) on an artbook But it's so tempting.Gyrian said:<3 Shunya Yamashita and Shigenori Soejima.

I know it has to be amazing, but is it just full of artwork most of us has already seen before?

I'd also like to know about this since I already have the Persona 4 artbook, does it have enough new content or non-Persona 4 artwork to make it worthwhile buying?drkOne said:

yeha its way more interesting seeing 40 peoble in a row posting pictures of killzone 2 in 4000x3000px on a shity wood ground. Jesus please stop it, you dont like it? Ok whatever scroll on or dont enter the thread. I love it when peoble go the extra mile and make a nice picture of there picups, or even a themed pic up picture or whatever they like to do. If you really badly want to know what something is you can just ask but thats about it so stop bragging

The mother of all pickups... got sick of playing StarCraft 2 on my 2010 Macbook Pro so I ordered a 6-core Mac Pro with a Radeon 5870. Now I'm just waiting until next month for the Apple store to let us submit our orders for the new 27" cinema display and I'm sweet.

I've paid worse...I think 70 or so for the Valkyria Chronicles one. I'll probably bite for this one as well.

I really don't understand why you care so much. If you see it and know what it is, cool. If you don't and care enough to ask you'll get an answer. If you decide to bitch about it you'll look like an ass. I think I'll make all my posts like that just for you now.

Normally I don't post in this topic but this pick-up is a special one:
My first tattoo, made in cologne during gamescom. And yes, it's encrusted because it's made 4 days ago. I was told that it will look way better as soon as it's healed.

To answer you
This is awesome and artsy while giving a full picture of what the poster got
ErnieMcCracken said:
This is useless and forces anyone who actually cares to know wtf you just pictured to ask you. While I don't mind setups (far from it, as evidenced by the first picture), the following one is exactly what you shouldn't do. Theme your picture, it's super fine, but keep your stuff identifiable, otherwise, what's the point? If you want to do art, we have several threads dedicated to it on the OT forum.
Alucrid said:
Now mind you, the problem isn't with what you bought (Kurosawa is awesome for instance), not even what you pictured, but how you introduced it.
I use this thread as a guide to stuff I could potentially be interested in, and seeing stuff with no indication whatsoever is prety pointless.
If you absolutely have to do puzzling picture where no one can identify the stuff, add a legend, I don't think that's too much to ask
Also this isn't a rant, it's an observation. If it came across as "mad" that wasn't the intent (lets pin it on the language barrier)

I really like it. It covers P3, P3FES, P4, Stella Deus, and some original work.
It's not extensive in that it features every single piece made for each game; it's mostly the key artworks.
With that said, there are quite a few in there I hadn't seen before.
Stella Deus and the original work was all new to me, also.
I can gather some pictures if you're all curious. Below is one I have handy, which I took for this thread.

Wait! You can play the games on the PSP GO with the PS3 dual shock? Is this an official feature or do I have to install some special hacks and stuff?
OMG!

That's been a feature of the PSP Go since day one. It has Bluetooth and can tether or connect with most Bluetooth devices.

:lol Okay. I'll try and figure out something that is both 'artsy' and easily identifies the item then. To be honest most of the pictures I took were to catalog my record collection and I liked the way to 'up close' pictures came out so I just stuck with that.
