I bought three 6TB drives for backups. Gonna add a 4th backup to my cycle for extra safety. I already got all the games i have time for this year. Probably buy a 120-500gb ssd also if i see one on sale but not sure yet.

How loud are they? i got a 4tb drive and that thing sounds like a god dam drill. Was thinking about ditching it and buy some 6tb drives.

I haven't yet got these specific drives but i have some WD 6tb drives previously. The western digital i have are very quiet, near silent. Seagate are quite a bit cheaper but nearly every Seagate drive i've bought in the past has clicked and scares the crap out of me hearing this and they are only still useful as a redundant backup. I will gladly pay more for western digital for more reliable drive. Also looking at the statistics some of these backup centers release every year, you can see the Seagate have higher failure rates.

That 4tb u got may have some serious problems. I'd make sure that isn't your primary backup because it sounds like it could die at any moment. Most modern hard drives should be very quiet.

I have a couple weird drives that even when idle make a sound similar to when files are being copied, no idea if its just reorganizing data or somethings wrong with them but they are the only noisy ones i have. It could be just some buggy firmware causing the drive to shift data around more than necessary. Not a big deal mostly since they are only online for a few hours during a backup then put away.

Ah ty, yea its a seagate. Thing already did it from day one. So as its filling up i have to replace it anyway. Will look for WD drives this time. thanks.

Nothing. Got my very first Christmas tree (for my own place) and i'm looking for a new couch in December. Gaming is taking a sideline in terms of purchases for the next month or two.

Still need to add the decorations...

Last week of November is my time to get it up and get things decorated. A little early, but the tree and decorations were on sale, so I couldn't buy it and just leave it in a box :P

I got a Dell G3 15.6" laptop with core i5 and GTX 1060 Max Q for just under $700 at my local microcenter. I also order the audio technica ath-m40x headphones because I want to get into music production and have some decent cans to listen to music on the go with.

I haven't really bought any games outside of Dragon Ball FighterZ Season pass which was 50% now I finally get to play as my boy MVP 17.

I have that coffee table. Mine also has a wireless mouse and keyboard on it, funnily enough. It bothers me that your couch is at an angle.

My camera sucks. Maybe that's what I should look for during these sales. A good pocket camera. All my phones have had bad cameras.

Picked up Uncharted Trilogy and God of War so far.

Probably going to get at least one more. Right now it's between Monster Hunter World, Uncharted 4 and Persona 5.

I doubt you bought that for Black Friday. It's already much more expensive (on Amazon) now than it was during pre-order. My copy is waiting in the office of my apartment building. I couldn't get it today because they're closed for Thanksgiving. I hope they're gonna be open again tomorrow, but I kind of doubt it. Anyway, I'm looking forward to opening it up. Never been disappointed by a Bergman joint.

I've decided on a cheap pocket camera. Gonna see if Best Buy has the Sony DSCW830 discounted tomorrow.

That's not technically a black friday deal, it's a month long deal at B&N, but I'm going to count it. I got it Wednesday just like 12 Monkeys using my 10% discount on top of the 50% sale. Mentally that sort of kicked off my "splurge" on movies and games this week.

I've only seen about 10 or so of the films, Bergman wouldn't have been my first choice, but I love the idea of this set and hope they do more for Kurosowa, Fellini, and some others.

All that other stuff for me was "ordered" online, the only other things I picked up in person already were Resident Evil Gold and IT (UHD) - and the only reason I did that in person was because I was with someone who was getting an Iphone deal. Seems RE7 Gold was in-store only, so at least that made my one trip to a store on Turkey day sort of worthwhile... also grabbed some other random junk while there (battery bank, Ultra HDMI cable).

It released in oct apparently according to Argos site. It's a re-release they added an SD card slot. Not perfect by any means but fun going through some games I missed. Worth £45 in my opinion.

@Macutchi: what did you buy?

a switch bundled with mario kart and crash, plus mario odyssey and zelda separately. arrives on monday. held off on the pro controller for now. think i'll sit on zelda for a bit, i'm a bit open-worlded out after rdr2 (still not finished it). the thought of some platforming antics or a bit of mario karting is really appealing right now.

would you recommend anything else for the switch?

also bought a mid tier (gtx 1060) laptop which arrived today so between the two they should keep me occupied for the next few months!

@Macutchi: nice! And I hear that about the open world fatigue...

I forget what other platforms you have, but there are lots of good bite-sized indies and things to play on it that just feel right at home. There's Octopath Traveler as well, of course. I just picked up Valkyria Chronicles 4 and It's a good change of pace from open world collectathons too (althout it's available everywhere, of course).

cool. i never played any of the valkyria chronicles games before. 4 looks nice. i think i'd go for octopath traveler first. and yeah i can imagine those kind of games really suit the hardware. i bet octopath plays nicely on it

An electric bike for the lady for freaking 3000$.... and a new bed for 7000$... being an adult sucks!

Almost treated myself to a PS4, but I don’t even have time to play the games I want on pc/switch, so would just be silly to add another consoles games to my backlog!

I went ahead and got the discounted Vive Pro (HMD only) to use with my existing Vive setup, long with the wireless mounting kit required for the Pro. I've been enjoying VR again after getting the official wireless kit for the Vive and in some of my games the indistinctness of the visuals has been getting on my nerves a bit. I didn't get the Pro initially because it's not a huge upgrade over the Vive for the price but I've got a fat bonus check coming a few weeks and I can try to dump the Vive to offset the price of the new unit.

1. $50 PSN Voucher

God Of War-$21
Persona 5-$20
The Last Of Us Remastered-$6

$2.03 to spare.

These 3 games along with RDR2 should keep me me playing till mid 2019 with ease along with the PS+ games i am currently enjoying. (Yakuza) Safe to say, My gaming backlog is healthy.
