Good for him, hope he enjoys it. I imagine since he knows so many people, has so many friends and former co-workers and is still a decently large name, he needed a large house to accommodate meetings / parties and such. Also if you hire people, you can always get to know them.

Oh man, I love it. But 70 million? Jesus.

He's paid the most =/= got the best deal. I'm certain he overpaid but with the purse he's got it's not like he'll go bankrupt. [QUOTE=Ehmmett;46746191]isn't that a counterstrike map as well?[/QUOTE] Was a custom map designed after the house yes.

[QUOTE=smurfy;46746130]What's the latest on that house garry was building anyway? Haven't heard about it for like a year[/QUOTE] Well, uh, he has remote controlled solar blinds [video=youtube;-1cOxAFk39o]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1cOxAFk39o[/video]

i wish i had a $70 million house and could retire to make silly indie games

Garry please tell me this is a guest bedroom or something. Your office chair has more flair then this room altogether.

I see the ladies are already swooning in. [IMG]http://cdn.cstatic.net/images/gridfs/53f3db4cf92ea13c8b00192c/Screen%20Shot%202014-08-19%20at%203.34.16%20PM.png[/IMG]

sure, it's neat, but those decor choices burn the eyes. so much sterile white

[QUOTE=Monkah;46746303]sure, it's neat, but those decor choices burn the eyes. so much sterile white[/QUOTE] Feels more like the sales floor of a department store than a house IMO

Too much white, glass and big rooms for my taste, I'd go more for coziness than fanciness.

Outdoor views are great tho

I thought it said he bought a horse and I kept looking for it in the pictures.

New money as fuck

You really fucked that joke up I bet those girls are real good at minecraft, they look like professional gold diggers

I find the average FPer's reaction hilarious in regards to his choice of housing. Are you seriously telling me that you would not live in that house if someone approached you right now and it was within your means? It can always be renovated if for whatever reason, the million dollar marble granite makes you absolutely nauseous in knowing it's true value, to something more affordable akin to the Home Depot lineup of 2014. Seriously, that's a beautiful home. It may not be my first pick with all that money, but I'd definitely have purchased it and gotten cozy real quick considering it didn't even scratch the bank account.

Jesus christ. Of course I'd take the house if it was just given to me. I'd just do a complete renovation because I find literally everything in it apart from the candy thing to be absolutely ghastly and I would very much prefer the other wooden/stone one that had its picture posted in the previous page. It's like people who ask "A-As if you wouldn't take a Bugatti Veyron if it was given to you!" whenever somebody says that they don't really like the Veyron and it looks like a bit of a turd. Of course they'd take it. They'd just sell it for something else after they got it.

Fun fact: Notch outbid Jay-z and Beyonce for the house

[QUOTE=AJ10017;46746382]I think i would much rather live in a normal house and live a normal life and never have to worry about money again than buy a huge expensive house[/QUOTE] Even with over 2.5b in your bank account? I'm frugal to the point of not even spending $1 on a game unless I know I'll touch it, and I'd have bought this home given his bank account and business. The man never has to worry regardless.

1181 N HILLCREST RD If you look at it on Google maps you'll see it's on the top of a hill and towers over his neighbors. The thing I don't like about it is it's a long twisty drive just to get to a real street. If I had his money I'd buy all the houses between my house and Sunset Blvd, then demolish them and make a private driveway straight to Sunset.

Itt poor jealous people. [highlight](User was banned for this post ("ITT" - Craptasket))[/highlight]

[QUOTE=meppers;46746374]Fun fact: Notch outbid Jay-z and Beyonce for the house[/QUOTE] tbh that alone is worth more than the house. If I had that kinda money, I'd probably make some gaudy/expensive choices too, though for living I'd like to be out in bumfuck nowhere with a ace-tier security system.

How long till he blows his fortune

[QUOTE=Arid;46746455]How long till he blows his fortune[/QUOTE] Considering he bought the most expensive house in Beverly Hills, loaded with cars and memoribilia, and is still set for many lifetimes, I'd say never.

Why not live like that, it's not changing his net worth any.
