I'm not judging or anything, but shouldn't one of those hats be a Nissan hat?:lol:

Ha Ha...I've looked, but can't find one made by Choko, their "one size" hats are the only ones I've had that dont look enormous on my tiny head :lol: They're the only ones I feel confident buying blindly online.
 
I'm 1-2 week's late but here it's anyway...

Bought it on 27th Augest from Amazon (or Augest 27 if you're from 'murcia)...Got delivered a week later on 3rd September.

The reasons I've bought the older HD instead of HD60 is because of...
1. It's cheaper...
2. I can record stuff on older consoles such as PS3, Wii, PS2....etc unlike the HD60 which only works on the xbox 360, xbox one, Wii u and PS4 (which's the only one I own between this 4 consoles list).

Also on the same day when I bought Elgato game capture hd online, I also got this...

:D:tup: (this my second ever game to get it earlier after GT6 but unlike the horrible disappointment with GT6, this is probably the best game I have ever played from this year!).
 
Picked up this today.

Thundercat - Apocalypse

An incredible Jazz bassist (plays bass guitar) and he features alongside quite a few good artists like Kamasi Washington, Flying Lotus (who produced the album above) Kendrik Lamar just to name a few.

If you love bass guitar and love jazz then this guys is a must look.
 
My Boston Acoustics system kicked the bucket, and the Harmon/Kardon SoundSticks were on sale and sound as good as they look, so:

Getting my TV on the wall and off the desk to save space.

I bought a fairly cheap Asus tower with a good processor from Best Buy and upgraded the GPU and PSU to the following:
EVGA GTX960 2GB

Thermaltake 650W

And a monitor to bring it all together; a Lenovo 21.5" IPS LED monitor.

I also got some crappy $10 speakers to use for the PC when the Xbox/TV are occupying the SoundSticks.

This was all inspired by me having to send my msi GP60 in for warranty repair and realising that I'd rather have a desktop that I can work on and replace parts myself. Especially while getting well over twice the performance while saving a few hundred dollars.
 
I skipped the September Loot Crate, but still got the August Mystery Crate and T-shirt, which comes with a random mix of leftover items from past crates. It came with:

  • A Loot Crate exclusive card game called Superfight. It seems a bit too geeky for even me. I can see it coming out when I'm drunk though.
  • An inflatable crown that would fit my daughter, if it didn't leak.
  • An Avengers: Age of Ultron decal. I'm not a big decal guy.
  • 8- bit sunglasses. They're pretty sweet.
  • A Game of Thrones Stark sigil 4GB USB drive. I was actually consider getting a new USB drive, as I lost my last one, so well timed.
  • A Hex Bug Scarab robot. Useless, but awesome.
  • Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Official prop replica lanyard. Agent Koenig finally gave me one.
  • Loot Crate exclusive edition Rocket Raccoon #1 comic book. As far as I can tell its only difference from the standard edition is that on the cover Rocket is holding a Loot Crate. As anyone should know by now, I'm a comic geek and long time fan of GotG and Rocket.

All in all, a good pull. I love 5/8 items. Totally worth $20.

For $5 I got to add on one of their past shirts, randomly chosen from 9 designs. I got my second favorite of the designs.

Marty McPrime: A time traveling Transformer whose alt mode is Doc Brown's DeLorean time machine.

That's funny, where's your cardboard box?

:lol:

Anyway, after seeing the Forza 6 reviews pour in, I tried telling myself not to buy an Xbox One... I already have a PS4, so I just need to be patient and wait for GT7.

So here I am with my shiny new Xbox One. $405 altogether for the XB1 Assassin's Creed Unity bundle sans Kinect, Rare Replay and a Play & Charge kit (Seriously MS?? The "AA battery" shtick is getting about as old as the "external PSU as big as the actual console" routine...)

Bought some bits this weekend.

A new blades and folding holder, bag, staple gun and staples, paint.

Nice, I'm going too! I got the Audi Corral tickets so I get a parade lap around the track and free golf cart rides to places. :lol:

Watching him go absolutely crazy on his bass at the Roundhouse (when he was supporting FlyLo) is something I'll cherish for a very long time.
