Picked up a fully Bc ps3 at a thrift shop for $50. It’s on on few 4.81. Is there any reason to leave it on that fw for jailbreaking or just upgrade?
Couple of new arrivals today, Plus some splatoon 3 stuff, seems the nintendo store chucked in a bag & pin for ordering from them had no idea but was a nice bonus i love the design of the bag material.
bonus freebie stuff
the official uk nintendo store likes giving away extras when you buy certain games from them. Miitopia it was a brick of mii postcit notes lol. Luigi's mansion 3 was a little ghost dog glow in the dark keyring.Gotta love it when you get a few extras you weren't expecting. It's the opposite of the car market where you pay tens of thousands of dollars for a product and they try to con you with $12 floor mats and a $90 block heater as a "winter package" for $2K.
Couple more switch games, not normally a lego game type of person but i like minecraft and this is in a very similar kind of deal. Can mess about making mini worlds to keep me amused. Really enjoying it so far.
Also supraland finally turned up from limited run today, took exactly one year from ordering to it turning up as it was october when they did the preorders.
It's slowly growing in size on a weekly basis, there's just so many games that keep coming out for it i'm spoilt for what to buy/play. Case in point, another addition just in time for the weekend.You're going to need an off-site warehouse for your Switch collection at this rate
I love the enviroments & how surreal everything is. Also love it's packed with secrets too, only found a couple of the chess pieces but i want to find them all. So happy that it's no longer locked to been a digital title.Superliminal was a great game, ran through it a few times back-to-back.
As for today switch game number 260 arrived earlier than i was expecting
Wanted the collectors edition of a short hike for a while but i didn't have the cash at the time and it sold out stupidly fast no way i was gonna pay the prices on ebay from people scalping the hell out of it. Seems the stock SRG held back for replacements and damaged copies in the post got released for sale so i managed to grab one of the last handful they had left so pleased to have this one as it's got some nice things in it.
A visitors guidebook to all the features of the island, even comes with a pocket full of stickers in the back to fill in the circles as you find birds ect...
2 proper quality maps to the island they both have proper covers glued to them like real maps have.
The actual game plus a soundtrack
Plus some other nice bits in the final layer of the box an enamel pin a full set of SRG's usual trading cards and some really pretty postcards
Fantastic job on the kit, painting/lining makes them look totally different. Even the cheapest plamo looks really good if you take the time to panel line the thing & then some flat topcoat.I love it when collector's edition stuff like this has actual thought put into it. So many are just a steel case and a poorly painted piece of crap. I always love when the collector's edition stuff tells a story in itself. Good example off the top of my head was Halo Reach, which came with Dr. Halsey's journal which was full of cool little details.
On a side note, I assembled and painted the Siren model kit I posted earlier.
Thanks! I actually have over 200 MG Gunpla kits in my house and several PG kits. I probably put more time into that hobby than into gaming. At first, I just slapped them together and lined them because I enjoyed the mechanics of the various kits more than the finished product but over time my collection grew and I started to question a collection without any effort involved beyond basic assembly, so I got an airbrush and started painting them. I've actually gone back and refinished several old kits since then. I try to do better/try new things with each kit now.Fantastic job on the kit, painting/lining makes them look totally different.

This thread which is similar has 33 pages: https://www.neogaf.com/threads/what-have-you-just-bought.1604807/Just a heads-up, I'm not starting a 2023 thread for this. We only hit three pages last year, mostly just a couple of us posting. Instead, I just edited the main post to be a general thread instead of an annual thread.
I don't usually post the stuff I buy but I just got one of my best PS2 pick up deal ever.
All CIB in great condition for 100€.
I restarted collecting physical here and there in 2022 and been telling myself I probably shouldn't but yeah...
Just a 4090 for me...
I have a soft spot for the weird robots they use on GPU boxesJust a 4090 for me...
5900x / 32 gigs of RAM. The build itself is almost a year old. Upgraded from 3080ti. I’m one of those that has to have new stuff.Curious what are your specs for your new PC? Also Curious on how the 4090 runs all games you have? I'm eventually gonna to upgrade my PC but I'm waiting for a price drop on 3070. I have to replace my Motherboard, CPU and Ram too
It’s fucking massive as is the cardI have a soft spot for the weird robots they use on GPU boxes
ALso how fucking big is that box!?
