[Kayden]

You went OVER my OTT!?

[Roufuss]

Goddamn, Hayates Raijin throw combo can fuck off. That shit is impossible.

This was the last move I had to do in the game to get 100%. Google his Raijin throw, somewhere wrote a thread somewhere JUST FOR THIS MOVE and how to pull it off.

And wow, there was alot of talk about me being an angry guy in the last page of the old OTT :lol: I know I'll get a Wii sometime this week since I'm checking Itrackr, Slickdeals, and other leads I have.

Believe me, as soon as someone in the Tampa Bay thread on SD posts they got a Wii somewhere, I'm gone quick as a flash. I know someone, somewhere this week will get a Wii shipment.

I'm hoping its Target, they are the easiest to get Wii's from.

Frisky, did you mail the adapter today?

[Chika]

Fuck. Even in the future nothing works.

The Kmart Price drops finally hit my area and the havemn't been touched. I might grab a Castlevania double pack. I wish I knew what sold well on Ebay. You have any advice Roufuss.

[Roufuss]

I sold anything I could find there... even a $3 game averaged $10 or higher for the most part.

After awhile you'll break even and everything you have left will be nothing but profit. The only really shitty things to stay away from are Drill Dozer and Eyetoy Spy since those sell like shit.

But on average, every $3 - $4 will get you $8 - $10.

You want big money sellers, look for Halo Triple Pack, Advance Wars DS, Castlevania DoS, Animal Crossing WW.

Yea, I know, but I'd rather just grab it from Best Buy and use cash instead of credit ;) Plus I'm gonna PM it to CC for another $2 or so off.

Thanks though ;) If I still had Amazon Prime I'd get them both right now.

Okay. Going to go back tonight to get Eye Toy Kinetic for $12. That looks like it's hitting the forties. Then I'll pick up the true swings and metroid pinballs but they don't seem to sell at allw ell on ebay.

they also had a shitload of Castlevania double pakcs for $15 but they look like thye go for that on Ebay.

Yea, Castlevania Double Pack isn't a good one at all.

But yea, the rule with this sale is quantity, because you will break even eventually, and then you're making profit.

I made about $100 profit on the K-Mart sale and that's including the 6 games I kept plus the games I flipped for using K-Mart games. Most of that profit came from the shitty $3 games.

One thing I did manage to do in the chaos of the first day of school is stop by CC and I picked up Virtua Tennis WT ($17) for the PSP and this Psyclone universal S-Video cable ($12; has PS2, Xbox, and GC hookups). I'll have to try this thing out tonight and see what kind of difference it makes.

I need to get back into my 360, I've neglected the poor guy for too long.

[Dead of Knight]

I'm ass tired right now, but the Championship Game is on and I'm sure I won't be able to sleep through people screaming while it's on and shit. Though it is pretty quiet right now, maybe it won't be bad until people get home from clubs and bars.

Nothing like easy credits being an absolute waste of time and pain in the ass.

I remember my sophomore year when I took a class that I had heard from friends was very easy. However, since I'm a humongous dumbass, I signed up for the wrong fucking class and it was such an annoyance. Ah well, at least I learned a lil' bit about landscaping. :lol:

Also, I'm watching the Championship Game just so if my parents ask me about it, I don't have to lie and say I didn't. They moved to Ohio three years ago and jumped right on the bandwagon. Also, my dad bought me a OSU shirt, which is XL, when I'm a large at best.

I took the same class a year ago. It is so boring and they use terms that no one ever uses. I took it so I wouldn't have to suffer through another Calc class (because for some reason they didn't accept AP stats credit).

How late do you usually stay up these days?

Sounds like a plan, I'm watching the OSU/Florida game, and probably gonna be flipping back and forth along with RAW.

[seanr1221]

So after midnight it is?

[MorbidAngel4Life]

Sounds like it.

[seanr1221]

Ok count me in. No work tomorrow means I can stay up late.

Hopefully I can beat Castlevania DoS before then. I just

Got the power to turn into a bat

How much of the map do you have filled in?

[seanr1221]

How much of the map do you have filled in?

A pretty good portion, I'm only 4 hours in though. I can't help but feel Im flying through it.

[FriskyTanuki]

Seems like something happened at a nearby street (one that intersects my main route to school), so it'll be an interesting drive home.

[Roufuss]

A pretty good portion, I'm only 4 hours in though. I can't help but feel Im flying through it.

It's a short game, I finished it in like 6 hours.

Forgot how much this AI sucks on DoA 4... oh well, at least I'm filling in some missing achievements.

I've never gotten any of the survival achievements, and I can't get gold on Time Attack Tag.

I got gold in survival, with Kasumi.

I can't get gold on TAT either.

I went to the ice cream store. Got a small milkshake wasn't as good as I thought of in my head. Only drank half of it and tossed it. I did notice that all of the sports bars were packed because of the Ohio State game.

How did you pull off 80 wins?

[Admiral Ackbar]

Got in on those generic component cables for the wii at play-asia today. Found out the kamrt clearance is now available in my area. And got some trade stuff someone was asking for. Good day all around.

[MorbidAngel4Life]

Oops, I meant the top spot :lol: not gold, my bad. Highest I've gotten is like 25 I believe.

[seanr1221]

Hmm... Raving Rabbids is $30 at C.C Next week.

Im in the same boat as you...not sure if I want it for that price or not.

[Admiral Ackbar]

They also have a very good deal on Wow. Buy 2 get a $15 gift card. You could get 4 months for $40 and an extra $15 gift card. Or buirning crusade and two months for $45 after gift card.

Also I finally found a good deal for igh speed interenet at Copmpusa. 6 onths for $20 opluse free cable modem after rebate plus a $100 gift card. Now if it was only at CC or BB. I'll have to ask around.

[Admiral Ackbar]

Im in the same boat as you...not sure if I want it for that price or not.

Now, if my CC's would only get in Wii's so I could buy one fopr $210 with the coupon.

[MorbidAngel4Life]

Hey Roufuss, just got 40 wins on survival ;)

[seanr1221]

See I could buy Rayman, or I could throw in an extra 20.00 and get Lost Planet (w/ gamepro coupon at BB)

Hmmmm....

[Roufuss]

Hey Roufuss, just got 40 wins on survival ;)

Fuck!

You're not even online.

[wubb]

I don't remember Castlevania: DoS being particularly short. But I wasn't going through as fast as I could and it's also been a while. Then I played it again and collected every orb. (There is one in particular that is a royal pain, but for some reason I spent an hour or so killing the thing over and over to pick it up.)

[MorbidAngel4Life]

I don't have a router yet, so I have to unplug my cable running from my computer, and hook up the 360 directly to the modem.

Which one? There are several hard ass ones. Bugbear, Great Axe Armor, Iron Golem and Final Gaurd come to mind.

[wubb]

Seriously, pick up a cheap router for like $20 or wait for a FAR deal or find one at a yard sale. (I see them all the time, although probably not a good time of year for yard saling. :lol: ) If you don't need wifi for anything you can get one very cheap.

I wasn't going to mention the enemy to avoid any cries from the spoiler police, but since you already covered that for me... :mrgreen: Iron Golem is the really painful one.

[MorbidAngel4Life]

lol you retard

Hehe, that's why I said let me know, so I can get on XBL.

Pfft, the spoilar limit has been lifted, it's old enough :lol:

Yeah, that one was a pain. I got three for some god-unknown reason.

(There is one in particular that is a royal pain, but for some reason I spent an hour or so killing the thing over and over to pick it up.)

I beat it in 8:37 with 93.7% of the map explored but only 41% of the souls collected.

[wubb]

I wonder how you pulled that off? I literally spent close to an hour killing the thing over and over until I got an orb. (And yes I was using all the soul collection boosting tricks I could.)

Oh yeah, forgot about how it tracked the % of your map. Also got 100% on the map in addition to all of the orbs on the 2nd play. (Definitely used a guide for some of the tricky bits of map.)

[MorbidAngel4Life]

I wonder how you pulled that off? I literally spent close to an hour killing the thing over and over until I got an orb. (And yes I was using all the soul collection boosting tricks I could.)

I used Flying Humanoid, Ghost Dancer, Soul Eater ring Three 7s, and the one sword that boosts luck. Can't remember the name.

I actually sat there killing Bugbears for an hour to level to 99, just to say I did.

[Liquid 2]

All this DOA4 talk is making me want to play some.
Fuck GoW for now, especially with the patch tomorrow that's going to royally fuck up the last little bit of it that was barely passable for playing ranked online.

Lies. People with newly acquired DS systems who have been unable to find said game still have problems with spoilers. :razz:

[seanr1221]

It's weird...I hadn't played Condemned since like, early october, but now that I traded it in, I miss it. Even though I had no real plans playing through it again anytime soon, I guess it's cause it was just a really fucking cool game.

[MorbidAngel4Life]

I still need to pick up Condemned.

[Liquid 2]

Play with us at midnight?I wish I could. School starts up tomorrow, along with my sleep deprivation again (I have to wake up at 6 to get there by 8 :bomb:).

I'll send you and Morbid friend requests though (already got Roufuss on my friend list). I'll probably be on in 30 min or so.

I did the same thing with Project Gotham Racing 3. I had to end up re-buying it when it dropped in price...

[Kayden]

I still need to pick up Condemned.

No you don't.

I'll tell you how the game goes. Walk into a dark room, get scared by sounds, grab weapon off the wall, more scary noises, get lost in the shittyly designed levels, deal with piss poor hit detection and run like a 60 year old lard assed cop- IE, 1MPH- as you are, infact, a 60 year old lard assed cop.

[MorbidAngel4Life]

OK, so, sounds like a positively meh game :lol:

I'll probably end up checking it out anyway, once it's dirt cheap.

[Pancake Rabbit]

[MorbidAngel4Life]

*gasp* AERIS DIES! Oops, I shouldn't have let the cat out of the bag!

[CaseyRyback]

I enjoyed Condemned and I don't think I ever got truly lost. The levels are pretty linear, but the action is really good.

Considering how cheap it is with the coupon I would say go for it.

I should add this disclaimer that I really dig the majority of the stuff monolith has done. NOLF 2 is one of my all time favorites.

[MorbidAngel4Life]

I'm debating about getting Fight Night Round 3 first, though. Played the demo and liked it, and seeing as it's like $16 after the 25%/Edge at EB, I might spring on it.

[Chika]

man i'm not looking forward to work tomorrow. i've got a 2pm meeting 45 mins away from my office and the time i'll spend traveling i could really use to take care of other projects at work.

Are you an employee or is there a coupon I'm missing?

I think the fucking mail man steals my coupons. The only mag that I had with a coupon was the one they gave me instore.

It get Blue Dragon or Lost Planet, but those aren't used yet are they? ...Or even out?

Yea... theres no reason for me to have a 360... Good thing it came with my TV.

Dead Rising is the only game I still own and I don't even play it. My PS2 is more fun. About all my 360 gets used for is watching anime on my TV from my PC :lol: That, and pimping out the controllers. I'm thinking about Ebaying my KillBill controller.

Treasure is making a schmup for the 360, though I have no idea how long it'll take them to finish it.

Hopefully someone I know owns one by then.

i'm not as annoyed at the asshole on half.com that wants to return the pink ds lite anymore. he sent me an email today appologizing for all of the redundant emails he sent me. apparently, my emails went into either his junk or spam folder and he kept emailing me asking the same question because he didnt think to check the spam folder. at least he apologized and thanked me for accepting returns. he said he would let me know within the next few days if he's going to return it to me or not.

i'd be a lot more annoyed if i didn't actually*want* a ds lite for myself. i think i'll end up either keeping it or exchanging it for a white one.

Its odd, sometimes when I'm playing a game that has a static image for a bit, I get a green/purple distortion that looks like I'm holding a magnet to the screen. It goes away after a few seconds when I change screens. I just noticed today that it overscans a bit when I put it to Zoom1 on movies. I was watching a letterbox movie and it cut off the bottom of the subs. :bomb:

I'm much too anal for this TV. I'm going to take it back when I move next month and get and LCD/Plasma.

Treasure is making a schmup for the 360, though I have no idea how long it'll take them to finish it.

Hopefully someone I know owns one by then.
=P~

i'm not as annoyed at the asshole on half.com that wants to return the pink ds lite anymore. he sent me an email today appologizing for all of the redundant emails he sent me. apparently, my emails went into either his junk or spam folder and he kept emailing me asking the same question because he didnt think to check the spam folder. at least he apologized and thanked me for accepting returns. he said he would let me know within the next few days if he's going to return it to me or not.

i'd be a lot more annoyed if i didn't actually*want* a ds lite for myself. i think i'll end up either keeping it or exchanging it for a white one.

Ha, so you replied that you would accept a return and he kept sending the same "Hello, I need to return my item." e-mail over and over? I can see where that would get annoying pretty fast.

Uh-oh. I just got a notification that that package of Wii and PSP games that I mentioned in the last thread was shipped.

yep. the thing that *really* annoyed me is that i sent him the tracking number as soon as i shipped it, and i expedited to UPS 2nd day guaranteed at no cost to him, so that it would arrive before xmas, just because i was trying to be nice. apparently, he never received that email. he then emailed me asking about the expected arrival date. i resent the same message. then, he starts emailing me with the "hi, i found one at MSRP at a local retailer and want to return yours because it was more expensive".

Depends on the class of mail they used to send it. 1st class and Priority will be forwarded and include return service. Media mail and Parcel post, I'm not sure. Although in practice it will most likely be forwarded no matter how it was sent. But it will take a LOT longer to get to you.

If it went UPS/FedEx/etc then I don't think it would be forwarded, but you probably already know that.

Depends on how it was shipped.

Anything over first class should be forwarded to a new address, I believe. It's been awhile since I worked in a post office. I do know that anything shipped first class or better is usually forwarded, but it depends on the specific instructions left by the sender (Address Service Request, Return Service Requested, Change Service Requested, etc.).

To state the obvious, if it's a non-USPS method (UPS, FedEx, DHL), you're pretty much pooched and should hope that it's something ala signature required or something of the sort, otherwise the delivery guy could just leave it at your old address.

Wow, I saw that you mentioned he had found it at MSRP so wanted to return the more expensive one he got from you a while back in the OTT, but assumed that was your assumption as to what happened (and a pretty safe assumption I would say.) Didn't realize he straight up laid it out like that. Frankly, I'd be pissed.

[Chika]

now i'm trying to decide if i should attempt to resell the ds lite on half/ebay since they're still selling for like $170-200 and are sold out in my area OR if i should keep it and attempt to exchange it for a white one. i have the receipt and i dont think they'd give me a problem to exchange it if it's over 30 days since it's sealed and i'd be exchanging it for the same thing, just a different color.

Hopefully, for him, if it was shipped media mail, that rates better than presorted standard, though I'm not sure it does. Most of the shit I had to forward while I worked in a post office was first class. Presorted standard usually goes in the garbage can unless it has one of those services requested that I mentioned above. If it's address service (on presorted standard), you're still pooched, because the post office would send your new address to the sender but still toss the mail.

I'd keep the money and let the dick deal with it on it own. You're no WalMart. Frankly, I wouldn't take it back just because it was an internet sale. You have proof he got it and you have your money. Why fuck with a good thing? He could send you a potato and you wouldn't be covered as it wasn't an official transaction.

I just checked lite auctions a couple days ago and they seemed to be going around $150-170 range. Some even ending a bit lower.

The ony thing I know about the shipping method is that it was shipped with the USPS's Click and Ship service and that I have a DC#. I sent the sender an e-mail quickly, so hopefully I'll get a quick answer/response.

Linux doesn't need much. You can run a full distro on a 400mhz processor and 128mb of ram just fine.

it's not worth being pissed about, honestly. my boss telling me i need to do an "annual report" for the last 12 months when i've only worked there for 8 months and have no documentation about the 4 months prior to that (which she very well knows) even though it's NOT in my contract (i have an employment contract stating requirements, expectations and compensation) and that it needs to be *complete* by the 19th, that's worth getting angry about. it's not like i can just slack off on my normal duties to take care of this. i have my workplan for a year in advance because there is such a specific timeline as to how/when my tasks need to be completed, and i budget my time accordingly. i also leave time for "emergencies" and other unexpected things that pop up, but this isn't something that just "pops up" it's a major fucking project. getting an automated message saying my domain name is going to expire is something that pops up (which also happened today).

That means it went either Priority or Express. (The only 2 services you can buy with Click N Ship.) Almost certainly Priority as Express would be really really really expensive for something that heavy.

You're fine.

you can get something for around $450-500 retail. i believe there were decent brand (toshiba, HP) 15" laptops with intel celeron M, 128mb integrated video card, 512mb RAM, 40gig HD, dvd-rw at bestbuy, circuitcity and the company direct websites.

something like this (http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8032498&type=product&productCategoryId=pcmcat103700050018&id=1157067574689) is prolly a bit more than you need but at $500 you've gotta be there first thing sunday morning cuz they sell out fast. i can't even tell you the circus we saw this sunday morning. people buying sale laptops was CRAZY.

Also, and while I know I run a risk saying this...

Women, I have a request. Because most of the time you wear shoes without socks - namely those little slipper things that are hip right now, or open-toed sandals, or high heels, or crappy "I'm in college!" flip flops, WHATEVER - you need to understand a very simple concept about the human body, which is that sweat builds up in your feet without you noticing.

Because of this, most of the time it gets trapped either within the shoe OR between your foot and the shoe's interior, meaning it just festers away into smelly bacteria. This, in turn, makes your feet smell. While this happens to men as well, we tend to have to wear socks, so the sweat is at least somewhat removed from our feet, which in turn makes our socks smell, but keeps our feet on a much less critical level in terms of smell atomization.

THEREFORE, please do something about this. Since I know you all are highly protective of your shoes - which is dumb, considering half of them are uncomfortable and/or don't fit, but you persist in this endeavor primarily for fashion reasons - and thus I realize I cannot get you to wear socks for fear of your womanly scorn and retribution, my request is simple:

When you get home, please wash your feet.

There is nothing else more or less that needs to be said, and this should NOT be taken any other way. It is a simple, direct request, and you should take note that it is as such.

Again, I'm running a risk in saying this, but hell, I imagine other men wish this same thing on a daily basis, and I'm willing to take one for the team.

ps3seeker is a piece of shit site that is constantly wrong.

They keep putting up dates, and when that date comes, they'll push it back to a new date or "unknown"

Which is why I said "if it pans out". Up to you if you want to take the time to go visit them or not.

Roufuss, did that Wii for $300 fall through?

Roufuss, did that Wii for $300 fall through?

Yea, the dude disappeared and stopped writing emails for no reason at all, so I wrote him an email back and basacially ripped him a new one.

If I had to guess, it's that he realized he could do alot better than $300, and decided if he was to ignore me I'd just simply forget.

[munch]

That sucks man. Well, good luck getting a new one. I've really enjoyed my Wii so far. The console's been fun, too. *rimshot*

[CaseyRyback]

Awesome, thanks.

Much ass kicking was dispensed by me at Dead or Alive 4 last night.

I wouldn't mind getting my ass kicked in DOA 4 once I get my Xbox working again.

Also wouldn't mind playing some Smackdown.


And hopefully the EB up the road has Fight Night. The one closest to my house showed as having one in stock but it was sold out.

[sblymnlcrymnl]

Again, I'm running a risk in saying this, but hell, I imagine other men wish this same thing on a daily basis, and I'm willing to take one for the team. I have never noticed any problem like this, Strell. But then again I don't go suckin' on toes, either. Do you suck toes? :lol:

No, but I am an excellent masseuse, as your mom can test to.

[corrosivefrost]

I believe masseuse is the femine form of the word, senor crab.

Masseur is the masculine form.

The more you know...

Plus the term he should have used is "as your mother can attest to." ;)

Gotta say its been a GOOD day so far.
Got myself a Wii, then the HUUUUUUUGE Walmart.com price mistakes actually came thru. Got 2 sets of Enterprise Complete series in the mail.
Total = $50 + tax/ship(did pay the $15 express though)

I hate flip-flops.

Where did you get the Wii from? TRU around here didn't get it today, Target still hasn't gotten anything even though other Target's across the country have, and Wal-Mart is a bust.

EB / GS are too sprodic to check, since I never know when the shipment comes in since it varies for every single store. Sometimes it's 10 am, sometimes its 2 pm, sometimes is 12:30, sometimes its 4.

Eventually Target will get it in, and that's who I'll get it from.

[Strell]

Brak, whar be your sig peekchar frum?

Also, the Intelliscanner is on sale this week. Fuck do I wants one.

I might break down and buy it.

Gamestop. someone i knew was in the store and saw 1 left. Called me and stayed there to make sure no one else got it. They wouldv'e just bought it for me, but i had $200 on my Edge card that i wanted to use.

[Graystone]

I was supposed to call a guy today about a job. I call him and he's on vacation. So now I have to wait a week before I even have a chance to talk to him. Oh well that gives me time to get my Chef jacket, and checks (pants).

[HumanSnatcher]

Gamefaqs not helping?

I havent played it, but I have the doublejump guide, so I can try to look up something if you want.

Thanks for the offer, DMK. I have three of the seals, but I need a fourth one to get into this door in I think the Garden of Chaos or whatever its called, I forget. And I've no idea how to get into the underwater section. As for gamefaqs, I've tried it, but I can't make heads or tails of it as I have no idea what to do as I'm not all that great at reading text guides sometimes..

[Rocko]

So I bought Counter Strike Source the other day and started a Steam account.

Apparantly it came with Day Of Defeat: Source, and they've given me some "guest passes" to let people play DoD:Source, full version, for three days.

I dunno if anyone cares, but if you want one shoot me a PM with your email address, or I can just add you to Steam friends, and you can have one. I dunno how many there are.

In other news, got my MP3 player from Buy.com today. Now to load it up. I feel so out of the loop not getting an MP3 player until now but I don't really need one. Really only bought it because it was dirt cheap :lol:

[HumanSnatcher]

I hate flip-flops.

I agree. They're an abomination, and shouldn't be worn by either gender

[karsh]

I swear, the items in Twilight Princess keep getting better and better.

I just got the ball and chain in the ice dungeon. This thing is too cool.

Yes. Yes indeed. They did some neat stuff in there.

The items in the next two dungeons are kind of lame, though the last one is sort of cool in a ripoff sort of way.

[HumanSnatcher]

God damn it. My room mate has to be in to work at 4. I could have swore that he said 3 yesterday. I could have gotten an extra hour of sleep...

[seanr1221]

I wear flip flops from time to time, go ahead, sue me.

[sblymnlcrymnl]

I wear flip flops from time to time, go ahead, sue me. I think we could. :shame: :lol:

[Dead of Knight]

Flip-flops are acceptable only in the summer, poolside, beachside, or in communal showers, and even then only for women except in the case of the communal showers. Even then one must take care to make sure they are kept in good condition and are not smelly or ratty.

Microsoft can fuck off and die.

AT&T can fuck off and die.

Google Checkout can fuck off and die.

These are a few of my "fuck off and die" things for the day. @whee.

I'm always saying that about Cox Cable and my landlord.

Speaking of which Shrike, I found out that him and his wife are getting a divorce, its being finalized now. Only thing is that he doesn't know if they're gonna have to sell this house. So he told my room mateSherm when he dropped off his part of the rent, thats why he didn't renew the lease at the begining of the year. As he wants us to be free to find another place. Which I think we may have found a place. Its a 4 bedroom house in a very nice area of Virginia Beach for only 850 a month. One roomie, Sherm, is gonna call the old lady that that owns it and ask her about it tomorrow or Thur. When sherm talked to the girl that is renting it now, she said she spoke to the landlord and she kinda asked if they (meaning us) could afford a little more than 850 a month. Sherm said hes gonna try and talk to her into staying at 850. Even is she wants say 900 or 950, that still a damn good deal. And the place is totally pet friendly too boot. How I would love to have our dogs back. I miss my Jack Russell Mickey and our sweet mutt Spiffy...

[Roufuss]

Bronze star woot!

We should play again tonight, and get some more people this time.

[seanr1221]

I wanted the bronze star :(

[MorbidAngel4Life]

Yeah, would be fun.

I still cant believe I fell apart and got 10 losses in a row :lol:

[Rocko]

Nice... got the stuff I care about on there. Now I'll have to organize it into folders by artist, but I did it the lazy way for now since I'll use shuffle anyway.

If I can remember, I'd be down for joining ya. I've never taken DOA4 online. Though I will say that I'm not all that great at it either, but it'd fun to sit there and play against fellow CAGs

It's fun, albeit a bit laggy at times. I woulda stayed on longer but my 360 crashed.

[HumanSnatcher]

Yeah, I'm hoping that my 360 doesn't freeze up. First time it ever did it was with the Dead Rising demo and again when I bought Dead Rising. I may try it again today to see if I can at least get somewhere and pray to the gods that it doesn't fuck up...

Sometimes, I'm almost afraid to even play a non Live Arcade game because I don't want to have the fucker freeze on me. Strange that M: UA froze on me one time when I rented it, yet when I started over it didn't. Even stranger, when I got it for Xmas (I still haven't played any of the games I got for Xmas, roomie has though), one roomie tried playing it, and it froze on him at the same point where it froze on me the first time.

[seanr1221]

Count me out for tonight guys, Im moving back in to school tomorrow.

[karsh]

These are the times I really did wish I still had a Gold account. DoA4 was too much fun when I was playing it online.

[Roufuss]

Count me out for tonight guys, Im moving back in to school tomorrow.

Lame.

And my 360 has crashed on DoA 4 a ton... it happens, no biggie. And we didn't get that much lag at all.. it's amazing how many people bitch about how the game lags so badly and it sucks online.

For some reason, some package I sent out Jan. 3rd, Priority Mail, still hasn't reached its destination in Colorado... the buyer is already being a pain in the ass, and it dosen't help fucking DC only says "they've been notified of a shipment", which dosen't help my case at all.

I told the dude to just be patient, but I got a feeling it's probably lost in space somewhere.

[HumanSnatcher]

What time do ya'll plan on hopping on for DOA4?

[Roufuss]

What time do ya'll plan on hopping on for DOA4?

I have to actually leave the house for a bit tonight... I don't know when I'll be back. Probably midnight though, same time as last night.
