Happy Holidays, ya filthy animals. My fam did Christmas gifts today (Xmas eve). I got a stack of Marvel TPBs for my brother who's just getting into comics, a couple vinyl LPs for his wife who it turns out is much cooler than he is, a book and a nice silk scarf for my mom, and another book and some nice imported beer for my dad. Pretty much all I asked for this year was books, and I wound up with quite a haul: Brian Vaughan's Private Eye graphic novel, the Spider-Verse TPB, the Art of Rogue One, The Oral History of The Daily Show, Francis Ford Coppola's Godfather Notebook, the complete stories of HP Lovecraft, and a book of those cool cross-section illustrations of every major location from all 7 Star Wars movies. The whole stack of books weighs about 10 pounds. After presents we all watched Home Alone and then Die Hard and ate chicken and shrimp and pasta and got tipsy on really good beer. Fun day.

3D printer sounds crazy fun. You need to share what you make. Highlights include: - An original Sega Genesis with 6 games. Need to find a copy of Gain Ground. Man, I loved that game. - A 5-guitar stand. - Hardcover of the new Secret Wars. - Stretched canvas of a BTTF fan art image. - A bunch of nifty geek things and figures.

Oh, I received the new Collectors Edition Blu-Ray of John Carpenter's The Thing from Scream Factory and the Star Wars: The Art of Ralph McQuarrie two volume hard cover book set. These things are fucking tomes. They weigh about twenty pounds together and I don't really have a book shelf on which they fit. The art is of course incredible and the quality of the books, themselves (and the slipcover, too) is very very nice.

Unfortunately I've got to wait 'til Tuesday or something. I got Mrs. Griffin to watch that once. There's no way she'll sit through it again. I suppose I should just be happy she wants to watch Die Hard tonight.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Ditto! Got the Xbox One X, games look better but not seeing a huge difference. Also got the Oculus Rift. My first time trying VR and it is pretty amazing. Not much in the way of games for it yet, though. Hoping they remedy that in 2018.

I got the MCU Phase 2 box set. Finally rewatched a few of those movies for the first time since seeing them in theaters. I intentionally saved repeat viewings to make getting the box set more enjoyable.

Not much in the way of games for it yet, though. Hoping they remedy that in 2018. I was feeling like the next gen of consoles wasn't enough of a leap, too. But then I played Horizon Zero Dawn, Uncharted 4, and Resident Evil 7. I guess those are all still just graphical enhancements, which you say you noticed. I like that I can watch youtube on my playstation and that when I "turn off" my PS4, the game pauses and I can pick up right from there next time I turn it on.
