I was finally thinking of getting back online (I might jump on the Amazon BF3 deal) and was wondering if anyone actually opted out of the binding arbitration or whatever Sony put in the EULA a month ago. For some reason I just pictured Sony cancelling the account of anyone who actually mailed a...

I read this like a month after I finally get rid of my 2 year old box. Oh well.

I love Civ IV and the reviews of V don't have me aching to buy it. I did get a Mac over Christmas though and at $7.50 I was thinking of downloading this to try Steam on Mac. I was waiting for SP1 of Windows 7 to come out before I bought a copy to run in Parallels or Bootcamp, so some OSX...

Appears to be dead as of now. I got "invalid code". Is the G27 really that much better than the Driving Force? I will have to figure out if I want to try and wait and see if Logitech or anyone else does another sale. I just called Logitech's website support. Apparently they don't have any...

I bought mine with my American Express. They add an extra year to the warranty. Plus, I've never got the impression that the failure rate on PS3s was so bad that you needed to worry about it not making it very far once the warranty was out. Especially if you don't put it in a tiny cabinet...

Anyone else notice GT5 in the Sunday ads today? Target and Sears still said the release was coming 11/2. Best Buy at least changed it to some vague "coming out someday" in their Sony 3D bundle that I think was supposed to coincide with the launch. Target even still has Nov. 2 on their...

The problem with this deal is that I didn't see anywhere that Dell indicated that this would end up in your hands on release day, or anywhere near that. I had my girlfriend pre-order on Amazon with the SLS and the $10 credit. It was supposed to be a b'day present since my b'day is Nov 4, but...

Can anyone speak to the career/franchise/dynasty/manager (whatever they actually call it) mode? In the past I've always been let down by FIFA career modes. I mean one year they didn't even have dollars for player values, it was some points system. I am a big fan of playing games like...

Well I wish they would at least give me a new date. I was not planning on buying the new CoD because GT5 would be out soon after. Or maybe I found my excuse to buy NBA 2k11. I had basically not been shopping for games at all these last few months, knowing they would all collect dust after...

Really can't wait for this. I am even debating if I should buy Civ V or any other game between now and November 2, since it will be a lock that those games will collect dust after that. The only downer is the new COD comes out a week later. After being late the the multi-player party on...

Sucks I missed this, but with 11/2 starting to look "real" for a GT5 release date, I am starting to scout for a wheel. Hopefully whatever I buy is fully compatible with GT5. Anyone have, or know anyone with one of these Fanatec Porsche wheels? http://www.fanatec.com/ I just love the idea of...

"Protect your hand with these universal gaming gloves. The perfect accessory for a true gamer" I guess there are no true gamers in here. I also guess I am one of the few who never found the need to protect my hands from that PS3 controller.

Here is how I think it will go down. They will roll out PSN+ or whatever it is going to be called and it will have cross-game chat, maybe a free game, and I saw something about "extended" demos. Yawn for me anyway unless the games are good. Then when the uptake isn't what they thought...

Well this is the first email I've ever seen besides the one I got after joining. I just find it deplorable that the site would encourage members to join one of these penny auction sites. Why don't they just start directing members to phishing scams while they are at it?

Not that the ECA has any sort of a decent reputation around this place, but I found this hilarious, and more proof that most of the board members here were spot on with their assessment of the ECA and Hal. I haven't got around to canceling my account yet, and today I received (SURPRISE!!) the...
