About Me


Please Stand By.
Hi there, I am just another bored gamer, like many other in here. However, I am going to deliver you some hardcore stuff and you'd probably like to know why, who am I, to deliver something more hardcore than other people. It's simple - I live in Poland, place where, I'm afraid, nothing has ever been done properly.
This was suppose to sound epic, I know I have failed in my efforts. Oh noes.

And BTW - my nick should be read as "Spayk". "Spajk" is just written phonetically from Polish.

PSN ID - the same as nickname here - Spajk

PS. Terribly sorry for all the mistakes, if something is not clear, gimme a sign and I'll at least try to explain :)

My HC Room
Spajk | 5:58 AM on 08.19.2009 14 comments


Hello and welcome!

Well, I haven't managed to get my money for Fallout 3 back, but I instead I got myself Battlefield Bad Company, which turned out to be absolutely astonishing. Intensive gameplay, nice visual effects (gotta love destroying buildings with mortars :D), pretty damn cool characters and plot which seems to be good material for a film.

Nevertheless, today I wanted to show you my HC Room. HC obviously comes from Hardcore.
All of you probably have got more games-related stuff in your room, but please remember I live on suburbs of hell, and putting my hands onto some unique items is harder than anywhere ever. Except for Africa. So, this is where I play, eat, and sleep. You must excuse me that I won't show you my couch, but currently it's hidden somewhere under a big pile clothes, because my mom is "tidying up the wardrobe" and I believe it's going to be loads of fun when she'll try to put all of this back into the wardrobe.

So, basically, this is the place, my Gaming corner:



I know, nothing special. Most of you probably have got some 52' kick-ass Full HD TV, but as for now I have this tiny, little, 23' Samsung monitor with built-in TV tuner, 2 HDMI ports and one Component. My PS3 is connected via HDMI, because Component cable was defective and I have been having some problems with image at 1080p. It's OK on HDMI, thankfully. What may seem strange for some of you, there is also AV multi out cable connected to my PS3. Well, I like to play at night, so I had to find a way to play with sound but without waking up my parents. At the end of AV Multi out cable there is a little connector, which enables me to plug my earphones directly into PS3, so there is no interference caused by monitor and it's poor audio components. It works excellent, both when playing and when watching movies, listening to music etc.



Here you can see the desk itself. On the left there are joypads, 2x SixAxiS, 1x NYKO Zero for PS3 (utter failure, don't buy it...) and 360 joypad. Above you can see my black 360 Elite, router with Kagami and Konata figurines from Lucky Star before it, then on the right there's my 23' monitor-TV (screen ratio is 16:9, so it's great, most of these wide-screens are 16:10), PSP in carrying case, and finally, on the right side, there is my beautiful PS3 60GB, my window onto the universe of digital entertainment. On the desk there is also Logitech G15 keyboard, MX1000 mouse and DualShock 3 + remotes for HiFi and monitor.



Over here you can see my games collection, which is not impressive I guess. Some of my games are borrowed at the moment, so it's not complete. And some of the games here are not mine, cause I've borrowed them from my friends. Below you have list of games that I own.

Unfortunately, most of PSP games are borrowed ATM, so you can't see them on the pic.



Stand with PSP games, PSP Box, some carrying cases for PSP games, Digipack with Mass Effect PC Collector's Edition and some other stuff I keep in there.

I guess it's all gonna change in a month, because I'm moving to Warsaw in order to study at the university there. Obviously I'm going to take all of my gaming stuff with me, and I'll have to arrange it at my new place. Well, one thing will change for sure - I'm about to buy myself one of these oh-my-God-so-big-HDTV over there, so I'll no longer play on 23'. I have 40' Samsung in my living room, but usually dad is watching something so I have no chance to play over there.

That's it for now, thank you for reading,
Take Care!

PS. Post pics of your rooms! I'd really like to see them :)

That pretty damn cool...
The moniter/tv...
I gotta get that running on my room...

Curious about one thing though...
How long will that moniter last seeing as how it's being used almost all the time - whether it's tv, computer, or gaming?

@Ali D:
There's just some video content about creating the game. But Collector's Edition also contained N7 T-Shirt, ME landyard, 2GB Pendrive, an Artbook, some crappy postcards with characters concept, Game itself (1st DVD - English Version, 2nd DVD - Polish Version, 3rd DVD - Vid. Content), mousemat with Normandy on it, Solution for lame gamers, manual and maps with locations of all key objects on every landable planet - minerals, anomalies etc, all in cool box ^^

As a fellow owner of the old G15 keyboard, I approve this layout.

Hey, at least you have HD gaming capabilities. Someday, soon, I'll show my 'rig'. Then everybody on this site will have something to feel better about.

That's a beautiful setup dude.

I'm currently reworking my entire room and fully upgrading my computer, getting a new desk and everything and I'm basically aiming to do the same thing as you, you've given me good inspiration as far as how to go about it.

Nice set up. I really like the clean look of it. I might have more stuff, but it doesn't look nearly as as good aesthetically in a single corner as yours. Kudos!

nice setup man! I guess you're from Poland due to the comments in your column on the rights, so I'd like to point you to the DtoidEurope Blog where you can find information about the EuroNARPs :-)

here's the recap of the last edition:
