What have you bought recently?

[Shadow]

Some random nicknacks to send to friends next time I get a package together for them. Fruit. Cough drops and Nyquil (just in case). Tea. Some junk food cuz we're meant to have people over tomorrow and, even if they all end up getting sick, I want them to be well fed. So I can devour their souls. Oh, and some pads of paper for notes.

I bought the 19 blade fan for the PS3 and as it turns out I bought the wrong power supply. The standard power supply that comes with a PS3 is the APS-226 and it draws in (I think) 200 watts but the PS3 doesn't need anywhere hear that. Whatever energy the PS3 doesn't use the power supply converts into heat which is what caused the fat PS3s to over heat after a few years of constant high temperatures. So I had to buy a APS-231, which brings in less power, which equals less heat, and even when the PS3 is using the highest amount of energy, the 231 provides plenty.

The fan is a 15 blade fan which I've read doesn't do as good a job distributing the air flow as the 19 blade fan, which is the factory spec, but they were repealed for the CECHC## models (3rd production model of PS3s) which had software based backwards compatibility as opposed to hardware; In other words they didn't have a PS2 build inside them anymore. Same applies for the 231 power supply, factory spec that got replace in order to make production cheaper along with the system.

With these I am supposed to be able to improve, drastically, the longevity of my fat PS3, though I wouldn't mind getting my hands on a system that had a hardware Based backwards compatibility.

I just bought the Sly Cooper Trilogy for the PS Vita.

I remember first learning about Sly from a gaming magazine that was showing off the promotional material for Sly 3. But I never got around to playing the games until I saw a friend playing the first Sly game and I got really interested.

Can't wait to play them. :thumbsup:

Birthday presents (one late, one no doubt soon-to-be) for a couple of friends, a few movies for kiddo off of Disney reward points, and yet another book for myself. ^^;

More skinny jeans.

As an obese person, it might seem strange to buy tight-fitting jeans but they sort of make my legs look less elephantine, in a weird way. Plus there are holes in all my other jeans, so for the sake of decency I had to do something.

I haven't watched Avatar in about seven years, but I still think Book 2 is best book, in my humble opinion. It was the most story-rich, and fleshed out the characters in more ways than Books 1 or 3 did.

 

[Angel]

Lego

 

[Lain]

I bought the book "Le Morte d'Arthur" by Thomas Mallory which is obviously about King Arthur.

I've mentioned it before but I'm a huge fanboy of the Arthurian Legend, being brought up on them as a child.

 

[Angel]

More Lego. Lego dragons, specifically.

 

[Rebel Dynasty]

A Canon printer/scanner/copier.

 

[Chancey289]

Got this for only 5 bucks at the mall.

Soon to be around £50 on my next tattoo

Seeing as a localisation for Persona 2: Eternal Pushisment is practically never going to happen, I decided to just import the game itself.

Here's what the cover looks like...

[Angel]

Wine.

Lots and lots of sleep-inducing wine.

 

[Rebel Dynasty]

The illustrated version of The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath by H.P. Lovecraft. C'mon, Amazon...

Miso paste. Looking forward to trying the soup for the first time this weekend.

I bought lunch for me and the fiancée from Caffè Nero. No, it's not a DMC themed cafe.
