About Me




Hai my name is Kyle. Things I like include: burritos, beer, skateboarding, the environment, painting, baseball, and those videogame contraptions. I have a passion for the bizarre Japanese stuff, but have a pretty eclectic taste in games. I'm the guy making snarky comments about the latest AAA titles and raving about the latest, greatest thing that'll be lucky to self half a million copies.

My Spectacular Setup
Kyle MacGregor | 7:30 AM on 06.11.2009 23 comments




This is pretty much everything that I have acquired over the past sixteen or so years of gaming aside from some things I have loaned out to buddies.

Unfortunately I'm between apartments at the moment (my next lease doesn't start until July) and my parents have some extra space in the attic. I basically get a wall for all my things. My vidjagames, bed and closet is all there, the other three walls are covered in boxes and...well essentially crap. I figure between now and late July when I move into my new place it'll be nice to compare the gypsyish mess that is this place to the glory it will soon be.

Anyway, my collection...



Oh god...the wires.





Maybe one day I'll get that Dreamcast I've wanted since fifth grade.



...The Saturn games that I actually like. They sit atop a full box of crappy to mediocre to sports games that I don't.

Oh what a Cinderella story it will be.

Yeah man , You need upgrade to the big leegz and play them Halos Nam'ean!

I would kill for a cheap Sega Saturn Lightgun :(

That's a pretty cool set-up you got there! Your neck must hurt like crazy sitting on that floor , do you have a chair or a coach at least X/....?

Thanks. I try.

@KRAID
I gots Combat Evolved on my laptop.

The Sega relics are my pride and joy.

I have a big armchair/very cozy love-seat. I'm not sure what it is supposed to be but it works. I also have some lawn/beach chairs.

I'm classy like that.

This is a nice cozy setup, man! You needn't be ashamed. Those Saturn games are fucking pristine!

Thank you for keeping it real, sir.

Wait, is that Die Hard Saturn game in the "crappy to mediocre" pile? Is that the one that's like a beat-'em-up, and has QTEs where you run through hallways and knock dudes over? I have vague memories of that being kinda entertaining.

Maybe I'm thinking of an arcade version? I don't know, I'm confused.

It's more on the mediocre side. I can play it for a short while and be entertained it but I wouldn't necessarily call it good. I really don't like licensed film titles anyway. Of all the Saturn games I have I think I bought about 7 of them and the others my parents found for me at yard sales around when the Saturn tanked.

Croc is by far my favourite game that I own for it. Virtua Cop is pretty bad ass too.

I dig it. I like how you started to organize the right, then about halfway through decided screw it.

It looks like it should be a split screen with one side all tidy and collected and the other just wherever it falls.

I find your lack of next gen refreshing, usually these posts just make me feel even more behind the times so I appreciate that I'm not the only one who hasn't upgraded.

At the start of this generation I had a bunch of Gamecube classics that I hadn't finished...still have a few actually. Being kind of strapped for cash most of the time I decided I would just wait out this generation and by the time I was out of college I'd be making enough money to afford one.

But I got a killer job now that makes a hell of a lot more then I ever have previously and when I saw the trifecta of what would become the first games I bought for my Wii (Brawl, No More Heroes and Umbrella Chronicles) and decided I needed me some of that.

But its not exactly the kind of money that would make me feel comfortable going out and buying a PS3 and HD TV.

Those are your good Saturn games? You need Guardian Heroes and Saturn Bomberman.

Eh, when you're a kid you don't always get decent stuff. Between gifts and getting tricked into it by box-art you can end up with a lot of shit.

Case in point: This was one of my birthday presents, but oh my god is it terrible.

Sick. Sick.
I love seeing people's setups!
Nice collection you got there, man!
I noticed all the batteries laying around... Get a charging station for your Wiimote(s).
It helps your wallet. And the environment. =)
