My basement flooded like a boss.

The CAG meet up needs to happen soon.

Got caught in the store up at Costco on Touhy. Got to say hi to chicagoz, so that was cool. It was ing raining sideways, and the power went out after I had checked out.

Nice to see ya again! And it got very crazy when the power went out. Not a good day for me.

Oh and thanks to those who answered by question. I'll be stopping at Dominick's Saturday to pick up some cheap tickets.

I was in the NW suburbs most of the day and it wasn't so bad. By the way, the selection at the Palatine Half Price Books is meh.

Speaking of power going out, if anyone remembers the Coconuts that used to be at Lincoln and Peterson, I was in there once when the power went out and a bunch of people just took shit and left the store. Looting ftw?

Hahaha awesome. I was in Rolling Stones (by the HIP mall) a couple of years ago when a car crashed through the store. It was insane.

Ok, here we go. August 8, 2009 at Gameworks at Noon. Is that workable for everyone.

Well I know I'll be out of town most of that day already, but I hope it works for everyone else.

Seems alright with me, the problem is for a married guy is that can change at any moment.

Gameworks is pretty cool, lots of cool non-video games, such as a new take on air hockey and a free throw shooting game on a regulation hoop. Of course the last time I went was about 2 years ago. Hopefully they are better at maintenance than D&B's.

If anyone is out near Crystal Lake (I know, suburban guy) the Gamestop on Rte 31 (newer one near the new Walmart and a Starbucks) I saw some good stuff in the bins on Friday. I almost got it, but they had 1 copy of Tomb Raider Underworld brand new (well it's gamestop so it's not sealed though) for the PC for $15. It was half off. I was in a hurry and feeling under the weather so I can't recall the other ones off hand (sorry, wasn't trying to keep a mental note of them all)...

But now that I found this regional area and finished a massive project was working on, I'll try to help out with updates when I see them for anyone way up here in the NW suburbs.

Nice. I'll pencil it in on the calendar.

For those guys who are going to the Costco on Touhy, I live nearby. Maybe we can hang out at my place someday and play some games and have a beer or whatever. I'd hate to let the summer go by before I meet up with some CAGs. I'm also in Lakeview/Lincoln Park often if someone wants to host a game night. I can get to the South and West Side, too.

How 'bout the heat and humidity today? My mother had her 60th birthday party today (outdoors) and I think I broke even with the weight lost sweating and then gained back eating. =D

It was my Dad's 60th birthday yesterday too!

My in-laws live nearby, so let me know if some people are stopping by. I'll drop by as well.

On a different note does anyone have some decent psp games they are looking to trade/sell? If so please PM with the games you are open to trading/selling. The only game I've got is the sega collection.

Also if anyone wants InFamous I'm looking for a used copy of Red Faction.

This is the quietest I've seen this thread in a long time.

The Evanston (Howard) Best Buy had a stack of 50% off games but I didn't pay much attention to the titles, since I'm not current-gen.

Hey, do you guys know that the Chicago Comicon (Wizardworld Chicago) falls on the same day as the next meet-up? I do have the day requested off from work, but I'm heading to the con...

Edit: The con does go from the 6th to the 9th but it's a tradition for me to go on Saturday. I gotta miss another meet-up. Uhh...

^^^I didn't realize that I will miss the meet up too! I am going (to the con) all weekend this year (instead of friday only).

Any one need the 5$ off Punch-Out!! code? I got mine in the mail today but I already bought the game a couple of weeks ago. Just PM me.

Why don't we just switch the day of the meet up?
