Have you done much with your 3D printer lately? Don't think mine has been plugged in for over a year at the moment. I really should get back to it.

Shorty Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Yeah I still print a lot of miniatures for D&D! Although it's an uphill struggle sometimes. Since this is the purchases thread, I can mention that I recently bought an upgrade to the main board (SKR Mini 1.3) that does an amazing job of making the printer so much quieter. Who know it was the stepper drivers making all that noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ganepark32 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Ordered this at the end of last week and received it this morning. Wasn't expecting the quality to be amazing when I saw that it was a Gildan t shirt but it's really good quality and soft as opposed to how Gildan t shirts used to be, which was scratchy. Ordered a large and surprised at how long it is, which is a bonus with me being tall. Also picked up: Great port, though they're definitely games that benefit from the bigger screen rather than being played handheld. Also bought a bunch of albums over the last week: Spook the Herd by Lanterns on the Lake Color Theory by Soccer Mommy Simulcast by Tycho Suddenly by Caribou The Main Thing by Real Estate Never Not Together by Nada Surf When We Stay Alive by Polica Have We Met by Destroyer Lots of new great music coming out at the moment. Think this should keep me going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald Emblem Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 For the first time in like 8 years I have returned to a desktop.

Dufniall Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) Got some new stuff for the Switch: Since I play 90 percent handheld these days and my Joycons are starting to drift, I decided to give these a try: Finally I could get a new phone for work. We get a certain budget and the rest your have to pay yourself. I didn't feel like paying extra so I went for the Xiaomi Mi 9T which has a lot of specs for a very fair price: Edit: And found this one quite cheap, never played it which is insane since I consider ALTTP the best Zelda: Edited March 10, 2020 by Vileplume2000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ganepark32 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Possibly the last game purchases for the month as I've more than enough to get on with for weeks/months now. Ended up going with Final Fantasy X/X-2 after consideration of thoughts in the General Switch thread so I'm looking forward to jumping in properly to my first proper Final Fantasy game. Yoshi is just something short to jump on in between along with Smash. And although I have Game Pass, I've been waiting for Ori for ages and want to support Moon Studios so was more than happy to shell out the money for the collector's edition. Can't wait to sit down and play it as it sounds like they've improved on it in every way from the original. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scratch Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Bought Halo: Master Chief Collection on Steam. I've played a fair bit of the old Halo 1 PC on and off over the years. It still works, multiplayer and everything but it's hard to get a decent game. So I bought MCC mainly for Halo 1 and have played lots of 8v8 Team Slayer since. Something feels a little different, maybe the mouse movement or the hit boxes or something, but I'm getting used to it and having a great time. Also played through Reach's campaign for the first time, really enjoyed, although it's a sad story. Also playing through Halo 1's campaign with the Anniversary graphics and enjoying that too. Looking forward to the remaining games in the collection. Have to say £29.99 and no subscription fees considering what you get is an absolute bargain. Kind of makes me feel like Pokemon's pricing/subscriptions, especially recently, is a bit much... but that's another topic. Still love Pokemon and will continue to buy though. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drahkon Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Digitally for PS4. Two mates and I will play this cooperatively. What else to do in these times, aye? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aperson Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 Booted up the old Wii U eShop and topped it up with some funds to purchase the one Metroid game I haven't played yet, Metroid Fusion. And that fact is now no longer true... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goafer Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Now that I've had a few D&D sessions and it's something I'm massively enjoying, I figured it was time to invest in some good dice: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Bought the new 11 inch iPad Pro and an Apple Pencil. Have wanted one for a while and they offer crazy 0% finance deals here so I thought I may as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 (edited) I never managed to get into P5 when I played the original but I figured that P5 Royal was coming out at the perfect time to keep me engaged. I did originally have the physical version preordered but I switched to the digital one just to guarantee that I got it (managed to get a discounted top up card so didn't have to pay the overpriced digital fee).

Aperson Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 ORdered some more MTG cards while on lockdown which surprisingly arrived on time in spite of the fact that the country's on lockdown. Building a second Commander deck so these were welcome additions. However, the biggest news in regards to new purchases is that... ...I bought the Final Fantasy VII Remake and it arrived today, 8 days before launch! Wow.

Happenstance Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 Decided to finally do up my PC while I've got all this time (and money I probably should be saving!) and of course you need new games to test out the ultrawideness, new power and in the case of WWE 2K20, just how many glitches can a game have in one sitting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EEVILMURRAY Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 https://www.argos.co.uk/product/6092524 This delightful bookcase. But will be using it as a sort off pantry, to store the excess from the stuff we get from Costco so the conservatory floor isn't fucked over.
