Going on a killing spree are we?




Oh, and you got Battlefield! :D
 
I don't have pictures yet but today I picked up my 2000 Alfa Romeo 156 2.0 T-spark.

I love Alfa's, this is my very first one. And I can safely say its the fastest non-turbo 2.0litre car I have ever driven :)
 
Since none of the bike mounted lights have worked worth a damn, I picked this up instead.

75, 43 or 15 lumens and 11, 20 or 55 hours of runtime on 3 AAA's for $20. 👍
 
Bought a pair of these today. Got them for $50 ($15 off) because they were the last pair:

Also, I had this already but had to sell my previous copy when I was unemployed, so since it was on sale at Best Buy for $10 I snagged it up.

Wanted to try something different, so I picked up a pair of Nike SB Stefan Janoski in mint 👍👍

I've spent way too much on clothes in the past week and a bit.

Took advantage of the deal yesterday since it was $7.99 with free shipping and I knew it would come in handy one day.
 
TB
I bought one like that a while ago but the mount didn't stay tight enough so I returned it.
More rubber washing surely?

I think head-lights are great as a compliment to a proper front light, but not a replacement. I used the light I posted and a headlight to cycle-marshal a charity midnight walk only a fortnight ago.

Original plan was to go and buy Dead Space 2 on Saturday, but it was sold out. So I was browsing the Blu-Ray movies and realized I never saw the Deathly Hallows Part 1 movie.

Then I browsed the PS3 games section and stumbled upon a "Buy 2 for the price of 1" action for a selection of games. I did spot Dead Space 1, but there was no other game that looked remotely interesting. There were NFS: Shift 1 and GRID, but both of these games are absolute rubbish. Then I looked over my shoulder and saw the Platinum version of GTA IV.

I realized I originally wanted to get the game for PC a few months earlier, but it was sold out and even though they said they'd contact me upon new stock, I never heard of them. So I grabbed my chance and got GTA IV for the PS3 instead.

Although it's definitely not a stunner graphics-wise, this game is the best game I have ever bought. It's the small details that makes this game the most complete game I have ever played. A belated guest to the party, yes, but my God is this guest happy he arrived late!
 
You should look at Okami. It's not the best in graphics but if you have a PS2 or even better the Wii(It will be easier with the wii-mote to make the brushstrokes). I personally think the Japanese art makes up for it's graphics(and it's very beautiful). I played the PS2 version(thanks to yaywalter for the free copy) for 2 and half hours and I was hooked. Very forgiving game if you fail at the brushstrokes(it tells you how after so many tries and you can always look back at the logs in the game). It's a gem that is not well known.
 
HP Pavilion Dv7-4087cl Entertainment - Core i5 2.26 GHz - 17.3″ - 6 GB Ram - 640 GB HDD
HP-Pavilion-DV7-4087CL-Laptop.jpg

All in all this cost me $350 including the 2 year protection plan.
I use to have a lower end model of this same laptop, but when I sent it in for repairs they just let me choose a new one so I had to pay the difference for this. And that little bar in the bottom right; that's a fingerprint scanner:sly:

I know it's not the most impressive PC ever, but it's a hell of a lot better than my old one.
 
Should look into ASUS laptops in the future. Most of them are packed with good hardware for the price and my current laptop has been supporting me for 10 months no problems so far. The only problem I might have is that the hard drive in my laptop is known to fail early according to many reviews, where mine has been running fine.
 
Being a G-Shock fan I just purchased this model. Love the military green color :)

That is awesome. One of those would come in so handy for me. I'd be able to use my phone to transfer documents about then as I would always have my car keys with me. Now to see if you can purchase them in the UK...
