First up my NON gaming pick ups

I am getting into wet shaving after reading about it on Neogaf and a friend of mine obsessing about it.  All I have to say about it is DAAAAAAMN its so nice and much better than the goop gel stuff in a can  and the 234 blade razors on the market.  Also sooooo much cheaper in the long run.

Roughly four years ago I switched from the Mach 3 (which I had been using for over a decade) to wet shaving.  After a lot of research got a Merkur 38c and haven't looked back since.  Great decision.

I used Derby blades for a while and they were ok.  Switched to Astra about a year ago and I think they are much better.  The Art of Shaving supplies are always nice in my opinion.  I don't know how good that brush is, but I would invest in a nice badger hair brush if that one isn't. 

All in all, a better shave and like you said way cheaper in the long run.  Well done sir.

My latest haul.

@akumaizer,

Yeah so far I have only used the Derby, and Gillette blades.  That DE is a Muhle R89.  I got the Art of Shaving kit for 24$.  I wanted to make sure I liked shaving this way before investing to much.  Also the brush is a pure badger, but i am ordering a silvertip with my next paycheck.

Some 6th/7th gen and PC pickups. This pic was taken late May but whatever. Close enough I hope. If not, then here's just an unrelated picture ;)

Xbox- Prince of Persia: Two Thrones, Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory (cost about $5 in all)
Xbox 360- Dark Souls, Dragon Age: Origins, Gears of War 3, Star Trek, Tomb Raider
PC- Star Trek: DAC (I have no idea if this is a good game or not but it was $3 and I'm a Trekkie)

And now for this month's so far.

PS2 fat, Kingdom Hearts, Devil May Cry, Ratchet & Clank (Not much of a PS2 guy but I'm deciding to increase my collection for it) I got them online so I didn't really have a choice whether they were redlabel or not. I don't mind as much as others so whatever.

Yeah so that's it. Sorry if the late-May pic violates the July part of the pickups :P
