NeoGAF NOVEMBER 2012 Pick-Up Post!! Show Us Your Gaming Goods (Real pics or BAN!)!

HAPPY 6TH ANNIVERSARY NEOGAF!

Often imitated... Never duplicated....

Wow. When I first started this thread SIX years ago, I never thought it would become a monthly tradition nor did I think it would amass the amount of views that it has.

Since 2006, my life has changed a lot. Looking back at this stuff, it is a telling tale of my journey and my successes... my future.

I love video games and sharing information/knowledge with like minds.

In fact, I've met a few people at events that tell me... 'hey MarkMan, I'm from NeoGAF... I love the pick up thread!'

HOW COOL IS THAT!?

NeoGAF NOVEMBER 2012 Pick-Up Post!! Show Us Your Gaming Goods (Real pics or BAN!)!

October was rough on me. I had 2 weeks to spend at home and then travel like mad. This is going to go on for the rest of the year. Gotta tough it out. I'm here to make shit happen.

Here's what I got in October... + some pics from events!

My Insert Coin(s) clothing TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT 2 Hoodie! OMG I love it.

New Balance 574s. My favorite kicks for when I travel (which is a lot).

Awesome gals showing off some of my toys

A photo my friend took for a special FightStick X Girls photoshoot project he's working on. <3

Man. I've been so busy in October. That's all I got


What'd you get? If anyone wants to see more pics of my adventures, please follow me on twitter: @MarkMan23 or instagram @MarkMan23 ! If you don't have instagram, you can still follow me on instagrid !

 

[malfcn]

Looking mean these days. Looks a bit light on the sticks this month.

 

[LiK]

Wow, I want a calendar for that Fightstick x Girls. Let us know when there's more pics! ;D

Nothing like owning a part of something that you loved since you was a child. Cost me $150 each

Worth every single penny

 

[SUPARSTARX]

Doing it right for a 6th anniversary pick ups.


MCZ SFxT VS Stix. Waiting on Arthong plexi and my artwork.

Sneak peak for artwork; inspired by the MCZ TTT2 TE-S artwork. It was actually really difficult to work with Bruce Lee pictures because they are all very old and hard to find in clear resolutions and resizeable formats. Had to do some improvising and touch ups on the pictures to make them more presentable in a collage.

Kotobukiya Harley Quinn Bishoujo

Persona 4 Arena Artworks:

 

[Yes Boss!]

Yay for a new month!

It is my birthday in November and a big move so hopefully I'll get some good stuff this month. Need some new sticks and Indian movies. Hopefully the new Wii U stick will be revealed shortly!

Everybody needs to buy Dodonpachi Maximum for iOS. GOTY.

Thanks for the great thread MM.

it's so hard to find a saturn with no yellowing or other grossness these days. i think i did pretty well. it's a bit useless to me until my scart cable/converter gets here though, just a pretty lump of plastic.

also, my third copy of dark souls!

 

[jbueno]

No pickups for me this month, just lost my job. Hope to get back on my feet soon though.

Filco Majestouch 2 Tenkeyless keyboard (blue switches) and Nexus Basic case fan

I'm switching from a Das Professional to the Filco. I love the space I'm saving on the desktop going tenkeyless and the keys feel better on the Filco. My only complaint is there is a faint ringing sound when you type on them. I had a hell of a time deciding between brown and blue switches as well. Next mechanical keyboard I might try brown.

I wouldn't play it because of the bans. Or is that only if you go online with it?

Only online. They can't tell if you play it if you're not online.

 

[Phat Michael]

You can get them from the NCIX store.

[sikkinixx]

Had to make a mad rush out to get pants on the cheap, found these wonderfully comfy Banana Republic ones for $20 on clearance.

So a quick hem and off to the big interview...

Which, holy flurking shnit, got me a real job! I'm like... a teacher (okay substitute to start) I'll get in a pay period before the Wii U comes out too. Awww shit. An hour commute sucks, but at least its an hour of against-the-traffic highway driving.

 

[Acrylic7]

Only online. They can't tell if you play it if you're not online.

I though they could tell because of the achievements.

 

[Phat Michael]

I though they could tell because of the achievements.

it looks like im fucked anyway. i cant play as its not letting me save saying "no free space available" even though i have 57GB free. i lost 2 hours playing and im not gonna bother going back till i can go online...fucking useless.

 

[maverick40]

First buy of the month. Man where did Binary Domain come out of? This game is amazing!!

Oh and congrats to Mark Man on an incredible thread. Roll on another 6 years!

 

[Shadow780]

Where do you find your FFVII art at?

Hopefully I can find a WiiU and post it, if not I guess my Note 2 coming at the end of November will do, lol.
