Thanks to Litflynt912 in the buy/sell/trade thread I finally have my most coveted DS! So pretty. And after using XLs for the last year exclusively it is nice to get back to the small form factor. Final DS before 3DS. Unexpected purchase but SO cute!

And, bought a non-analog PS1 controller which I'm going to break open for the PCB to mod a HRAP3 as a Supergun arcade stick...using a PS->Jamma adapter:

And DoA2 DC:

Finally, big BIG thumbs up for GAFer GamerGeorge who kindly made me a Utopia Boot Disc so that I can now finally play my Under Defeat I bought in 2009 on my US Dreamcast!

^^ Those Creator sets are so cool. Really uses some old-school building sensibilities and seventies pieces. I was at Disneyland on Sunday and stopped at the Lego superstore and they had most of them built in little diaromas, including the big new Fire Brigade and Grand Emporium. So neat!
 
Christmas Haul!

Some new "dress" shoes haha.

PGR4 was a gift from a friend to give me something while I wait for Forza 3 to come in the mail.

Very nice, I was considering a BIC sub before I settled on a different one. How do you like these?

Finally jumping in. Tried DQIV (I believe?) and didn't LOVE it... but thought I'd give it another shot.

Ok, so I've had this car for a little under a year but never thought to post it here. But since I've seen lots of cars getting posted up in the last few months, I decided to add mine.

I'm American, but I picked the car up in Germany. These pictures are from the week I spent in Europe after picking the car up (hence the Euro plates).

In Austria near the border with the Czeck Republic:

^ Great car man. I test drove an A5 once, don't think I've ever driven anything more grippy. Awesome ride.

Ah, year in review? Well, I'll take this opportunity to post the two bikes I bought this year. An 1100s ABS Ducati Monster and a 15yr old Yamaha YZF750R. Both great fucking fun:

Thanks, man. I've been loving that Ducati for a couple years now. If I ever get the guts to buy a motorcycle, that's what it would be.

Yeah, I highly recommend it. Gobs of power and no weight at all. It weighs as much as the 620 monster I once started on :lol. It's like heroin, but possibly even more lethal.

Some PSP games and a remote switch for my DSLR. It will be used to shoot fireworks with.

...and I got an adapter for this old Minolta lens:



The adapter screws up the focus and adds an inch or so to the lens so it basically makes it a macro lens. Here's a photo I shot using it.

Wow very pretty audi, congrats man. My sis has an A4 but i'm not allowed to drive it.

Thanks. Audis are sexy cars.

Keep working on your sister. I'm still trying to get my wife into an A4.
 
DoubleTap said:
nice ride! congrats.

Thanks--yeah really loving it, by far the nicest car I've ever had. But talk to me again in 4 years when the warranty's up. :lol
Anyone considering getting a 3 series, definitely go for the Harman Kardon audio system, the stock one is shit. The HK isn't even mind-blowing but once it's adjusted to your liking it's got more than enough bang for the buck. There was no way I was getting it torn up to put in a nicer aftermarket system, so the HK was the best option for me.

And nice rides sholmes and Flek....that Audi is super-sharp looking and that Saab looks almost brand-new, even in the snow.

Thanks. I switched from a BMW, so I know how much fun you'll have driving yours.

As for that Saab, isn't that just the perfect picture for a Saab? The car is partially snow-covered and the road ahead is pure white. That's exactly what I think about when I see Saabs.

Yeah very nice pic...I used to love snow, until I got this car. I mean, it drives great in it, but I kept it looking so immaculate the first 4 months and now, to see it covered in salt after a day out is a little painful.

it is :) The best thing about this pic, i took it last week on my way to a snow drift / race training. Well it was planned to be a "safety training" but the instructor was like "na fuck that, we have huge raceway covered in snow and a round course - have fun". Going like 100 kph on a snow covered road or drifting in circles with this saab was really really awesome. Like real-life GT5 <3

yeha when i bought it the guy who had it before send it to a car shop for a professional polishing. And even though it was covered in snow, rain, mud etc. after that it still looks great and "clean"

Paid to have my Ibara Kuru poster mounted. Did not want to spend the money on a custom matte and frame yet so I did this in order to store it in the closet. When my cabs come out of storage in a few years I'll hang this in the game room!

Love the colors of Ibara Kuru!
