Meatball Marinera sub from subway. They claimed they didn't have anymore seafood ( ::)) which was probably bullshit. The person making my sub always gives me condescending stares whenever I order seafood

Nothing but I'm considering this stand for my Porsche wheel.  How dorky is it on a scale of 0 to 10?

Hell, if that thing is cheap enough, I'd consider buying a wheel. I can never get a decent set-up, and I'm too lazy to get the lumber out and build a stand.

I think it's about $115 or so and it's compatible with other wheels like the Logitechs or the official 360 wheel.  The Porsche wheel itself was about $400 after tax.

I'm going to need a mop to clean up the pieces of my exploded head after reading this.

Yeah, it's probably the craziest game accessory I've ever bought.  I think it's worth it though.  With the Porsche wheel, GTR and Rfactor on the PC feel so amazing and even GT5:P is pretty fun.

It's actually a bit easier to understand if you're playing GTR with it. I haven't played it myself, but from working at the old game store, all the racing enthusiasts who play it seemed to spend a bit on their set-ups.

$400 for a game wheel?  COME ON!

Post by: Smooth Groove on September 25, 2008, 05:01:57 PM
You should check out GTR.  I think a new game just came out last week.  It's awesomely fun even with a 360 joypad.  I sometimes just play GTR with a pad when I'm too lazy to setup the wheel.

I always figured it would be too sim-heavy and complex for my simple brain.

Since I've been gaming, I've always preferred arcadey racing games over sims.  For example, my favorite racing games from last gen were Rallisports, PGR, and Burnout.  But for some reason, GTR just feels more right than console sims like GT or Forza.  In GTR, I almost feel like I'm driving a car in real life.

Samba De Amigo for the Wii.  Even if it is tainted by the raw shit of both Sega and Nintendo shitting it up together, I still can't resist.

About a million.

I admit, I would consider it myself except it's too expensive.

I was only supposed to get 6 pairs, but that's what I get for not making sure that shit gets canceled properly before ordering more. If anyone needs some expensive gloves, let me know. :(

Yuin PK3 earbuds:

I know, everything in this link says "you just got ripped." :lol    they look cheap, they're made in China, and I'm buying them from a sketchy looking site...the earbuds and site come highly recommended by head-fi, though.

I gave the Combine Wall litho a pretty damned nice frame. It's not nerdy if it looks cool, and people can legitimately ask "wow, that's oppressive, what is it?" It only gets nerdy after I drag out Raising the Bar for a show and tell session.

I always thought Cajole looks a bit like Demi (no pun intended) from SOS (the guy on the right in this picture):
