My Gaming Room: Hobokart Edition
superhobo | 2:26 PM on 05.19.2009 18 comments


Having been an active participant in this site for nearly two years now, it seems kind of odd to finally be posting images of my entertainment room after all this time. Then again, I guess it's about time I did so. It's not very special, and it's lacking in so many ways, and yet I love it just the same. The main reason I'm posting all of this is that within the next couple of weeks I'll essentially be demolishing the room as it is now, replacing most of the shelving, painting it and getting a nice new leather couch-bed. Also, by that stage I hope to have delivery of a Megadrive, SNES, Dreamcast, Saturn and assortment of games for these systems. Missing from these pictures are a Gamecube and PS1 which I don't bother setting up because the Wii and PS2 can handle them. Also missing is my Blu-ray Sony Vaio which is off being repaired.



You will notice straight away the lack of discernable swag, that's because I don't really tend to have much. I do however have a big "wall of weird" which contains a random assortment of things which catch my interest.





Anyway, on to my games collection, whcih has been severely neutered by years of foolishly selling and trading in my valuable games and older systems. I am now in the process of trying to get a few of these systems back, but at the moment I'm limited to the more modern systems: 360, Wii, PS2 and DS.







And finally for the truly voyeuristic among you: My DVD's and Books.













That's all she wrote.

Entrapment rules.
superhobo's Destructoid Blog
It does. Catherine Zita Jones, Sean Connery and a good heist plot. What more could you want?
Magnalon's Destructoid Blog
That "wall of weird" looks like it has a Chaos unit with a power axe on one of your posters... You don't play Warhammer/40K do you?
superhobo's Destructoid Blog
That would be a warhammer fantasy chaos unit, as is the dwarf below him. I'm a dwarf player in warhammer.
Diverse's Destructoid Blog
Battle Royale? Fucking ace. Also was that desk you have stolen from a deli? :p
Primo's Destructoid Blog
definitely jealous of the Star Trek seasons.
seltzermx's Destructoid Blog
Needs moar Peter Hsmilton novels
themizarkshow's Destructoid Blog
Nice collection. I've thought about starting to buy up seasons of the trek series I like, but I'm still on the fence. I'm sure it would be worth it, but I keep buying games instead.
RonBurgandy2010's Destructoid Blog
Nice stuff man.
superhobo's Destructoid Blog
Thanks, also @Diverse, the desk was built out of a scrounged kitchen unit and chipboard. It'll probably be replaced soon by a new unit, using the same top. Very easy to keep clean.
Arttemis's Destructoid Blog
Fururama, Twin Peaks and Star Trek. So awesome.
Magnalon's Destructoid Blog
@Hobo
That's what I thought. I never played Warhammer, but I did a ton of 40K as Chaos back in the day.
superhobo's Destructoid Blog
I played a bit of 40k back in the day myself, mostly Space Marines but I just preferred the WHF ruleset more than the 40K one. I also have a shit-ton of Lord of the Rings miniatures, an army of Goblins worthy of Mordor. ;D
Chocobo Knight's Destructoid Blog
Hehe. Cardcaptor Sakura. Nice. ;)
nebones's Destructoid Blog
Wires.

Nice collection.
Char Aznable's Destructoid Blog
Nice stuff, man. Your books reminded me that I'm slacking on my Hunter S. Thompson readings. I'm considering The Great Shark Hunt for my next book (I've only read Fear and Loathing before). Would you recommend that for a good next step?
superhobo's Destructoid Blog
I'd probably say the Rum Diaries would be his next best book (actually I prefer it to fear and loathing). It's also the next movie they're making.
ArrestedDeveloper's Destructoid Blog
Wait a minute. Those are walls, you aren't a hobo!
