This entire collection of mine is only a few months old, and I've spent about $800 on it already.

TMNT2 = $40 on ebay Sad

real art looks like the mona lisa or a halo poster and is about being old or having your wife die and sometimes the level goes in reverse

Here's mine. Unfortunately you can't see the titles of the books very well, and it's incredibly messy, but...

Very few of them are game or programming related, but I believe that a well-rounded person makes a better game designer (long-term) than someone focused on game programming books exclusively.

Conceptual!

Hey! Hey! It's all that Super Famicom stuff we got from the flea market. Yay! Lookin' good there, Super Famicom.

When I go back to New Zealand next time, I am so going to unpack all my retro console stuff, take photos, and resurrect this thread for the benefit of the people here; possibly the only people who might even come close to caring that I have amassed an awesome collection of old console games over the last couple of years.

It is awesome. But the people around me really don't understand or appreciate that, you know?

And Cow. Especially Cow.

On the topic, I have some C++ books and one C book on the top shelf, assorted junk, CD cases, and the box for Team Fortress 2 (PC) on the second, and finally, on the lowest one, some school books and an Intellivision (Well, a Sears Super Video Arcade.).

Oh, and underneath that is a cabinet with GameCube games and Intellivision cartridges in their boxes. Screw the carpal tunnel, I'm whipping out Space Hawk again!

Derp.

Anyway, my library is...mostly DVDs, I guess. I have a whole bookshelf full of DVDs, some rows stacked two cases deep. I think I didn't jump on the Netflix bandwagon soon enough.

I still have many, many shelves worth of jewel cases from the days before iTunes...these days, I buy all my music online, but I haven't yet imported it all into my library...plus it's just hard to part with physical media. Embarrassed

Got a few shelves full of Gamecube, Wii, PS2, DS, and 360 games. A few PC boxes, but nearly all of my PC games are on Steam these days.

I have a decent collection of coding books...mostly C++, graphics, math and physics, and so on. My copies of Texturing and Modeling: A Procedural Approach and The Complete Effect and HLSL Guide have been especially invaluable. Also got a few PHP, MySQL, CSS, and general web design books since that's been a growing interest recently. Most of the information in those is just as easily found on the internets, but there's something nice about having a physical page to bookmark and reference sometimes.

I don't have too much in the way of fiction. A few Stephen King and Chuck Palahniuk books, a couple graphic novels, but that's about it.
