That's the stupidest thing I have ever seen to be fitted to a PS3 slim lol, it doesn't need it especially not the 160/320GB models that had a die shrink, the original 120/250GB slims ran quite warm but didn't have overheating issues AFAIK.

This is much, much worse when you know that the Wii and Wii U run the coolest and with the lowest power consumption compared to Sony's and Microsoft's consoles.

I feel the need to post this video while the Nintendo theme is rolling, very impressive work from the man there IMHO.

You don't really need to watch it all just flick through to see what he's done, my favourite thing is the paintwork, I'd like to know the paints he used to get the top coat to crack up as it has to create that cool effect.

Ask and you shall receive

 

Vallejo_-_AV_Crackle_Medium_17ml__94886.

 

It's a medium, so you just blend some in any acrylic paint you want while you're painting, and it'll crack up once it dries.

Note that it should be varnished afterwards so it won't flake.

 

Note that the N64 paint job in question didn't have crackle all over, which was a nice touch. You'd just paint without the medium in some places and with it in others to create the same effect. Might need a thicker coat in the non-crackle areas.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

Wow, that's awesome. 

My mom made that herself using some tiling stuff. She did it by accident the first time, then liked it and decided to do our fireplace in it. 

It's awesome there's paint specifically for that. :D

Got around to reading some of the more recent posts. Got a little bit of games, but I paid double for them. See, instead of getting lots of discounted games for myself, I got a couple of multi games for myself and my GF aswell as gift a few games to friends.

Ahah, I bet the first discovery of crackle medium was an accident too :P

 

It's fairly popular for making wargaming terrain, especially desert surfaces, (like for Warhammer 40K) - that's how I know about it. In addition to the Vallejo Crackle Medium there are some other types, I think one is called "distressing medium" and does the same thing.

How do you all think the sale was in general this year? There were some amazing games for sure, but I would say it wasn't as insane as the past few sales.

If you owned none of the games, it was great, but the fact is the majority of us already owned most of them from previous years of the sale.

I thought it was a little lacking this year. There were hardly any good games in my opinion and when there was, I already owned them. It was a little disappointing... :(

A few games were worth it, but it wasn't that good IMHO.

I am? I'm probably a bit more active at the moment given that I'm stressing my PC and can't do much else...and I'd rather not leave it going while I'm not here to monitor it.
