Gaming Setup Episode II: Attack of the Cables.
Half left | 8:34 AM on 12.06.2008 18 comments


Gaming Setup Episode II: Attack of the Cables.

So I thought it was time for an update. All that has truly changes is that there is now 150% more shit and I bought a Wii (That now collects dust indefinitely).

Let’s get started with the illustrated walkthrough with the view from the room I game in.



Here we can see the saddest snowman in the history of time itself that my neighbours have constructed from snow, shit and children’s tears. It may not have always looked like that...



There is a small possibility that a LEGO droideka might have shot it dead.



Here we have my super sexy Samsung HD LCD sexy sex on sex TV which I use. I have component cables for the Wii and I use a VGA cable for the 360 and let me tell you: Once you go HD, there’s no going back.



Stacked next to the Wii are the quasi-recently played games. Pictured there is also my complete Wii game collection...



To the left of the little shelf my gear sits on is cable town. If you get less than one foot away from it you get cancer instantly. It’s true uh-huh.



Here we have the proper recently played games pile. We can also see that ‘V for Vendetta’ has sneaked in there and is nice and cosy under my Chinese copy of Gears 2. Oh V, what are you like!



Pictured above is cable-tropolis. In amongst the clear tripping hazard is:
-My newly purchased 5.1 surround sound headphones (which are epic);
-A 360 controller with a borked charge pack that now has to stay plugged in to work;
-A Wii-mote;
-A DS lite;
-An iPod sync cable;
-An Xbox 360 headset;
-And a lovely HB pencil.



Here we can see Master Chief keeping warm and looking snazzy at the same time. Placed next to it is a pile of books topped by my NOT R4 which I NOT use all the time.



Pictured above is NOT my turning point gaming rig. We can observe Faith keeping an eye on #destructoid, We wouldn’t want ‘Young_scot escaping now would we. Also, who knew Mid3vol [url=http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z166/GAllmond/setup/HPIM0345big.jpg ]had a delorian?[/url]



Atop this set of drawers is a ton of shit which includes, but is not limited to, an epic failure 360 which scratches disks, red rings, breaks hard drives and is out of warranty.



Last but not least we can see my primary fuel source and the reason why my teeth hate me.

In conclusion: I have a lot of cool shit, but nowhere nice to put it.



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Those cables are nothing compared to mine. I'm actually afraid to attempt to sort them out in fear I might die of extreme electrocution and fail.

Also, fucking beautiful TV is fucking beautiful.

Attack of the cables? Hahaha, no. You should see what lurks under my desk, it's like I've painted my wall a solid shade of black. Lovely TV though.

@Braul:

I'm English. I get raped a bit, but there are many others that get raped worse.

@Welkstar:

Why get rid of it. It's electronics I hate throwing that stuff out. Also it has some modding potential.

My cable collection is similar, but what with it being a PC, I thankfully don't have the transformers, leaving me 8% less likely to get cancer.
