    Looking to get started into the world of graphic novels

    I've really enjoyed the Ultimate Spider-Man books, as well as Runaways. Also, check out the Scott Pilgrim books. The trailer for the film came out today, so it's a good time to check those out. You can read like 20 pages of the first book at scottpilgrim.com so you'll know if you'll dig it.

    Purchasing a Videogame store: What would make you want to come to my place?

    Whoever posted actsofgord.com, that was in no way off topic. Know what you're getting into! And good luck!

    Razer Tarantula Gaming Keyboard 18.99 YMMV

    There are 2 at the Culver City BBY, around $45 when I checked today. As of like 02/19 they were ~$70 (according to the price tag), so the price could likely drop soon. I wants one, but not @ 40 bux.

    Half Priced books.. New gold mine**

    Oh, yeah, dur. We have those all over the place here. Here's the very few games I remember: PC: Laser Squad Nemesis - $5 Tribes Vengeance - ~$6 They also take used games, though anyone with any common sense would go to an EB or a Game Crazy. Half Price offers like $1 for a box of stuff.

    Question about Gamecrazy's disc resurfacing/buffing thing.

    As a former GC employee, I can vouch for the quality of the buffing...in the right hands. There's a little bit of a science to it, and each employee has different levels of experience and personal preferences on how to use the machine. If the scratches are deep, than I'm sorry to say your disk...

    Toys R Us sale ($10.00 bin is now $5.00)

    I wonder if the $5 games have gone down too. I'd pay $2.50 for Polarium :D

    Question for Gamestop current/former employees

    I was a Game Crazy employee and we always held stuff for 1-3 days after our 'hey your stuff is here' call. If we wanted something we had a hold box somewhere we could hide stuff in. A considerate employee would never say 'HEY THIS IS BEING HELD FOR ANOTHER EMPLOYEE HA HA'. That's so rude...

    battlestar galatica free game download

    I downloaded it and played through it. It looks surprisingly good, and aside from some rough sound effects and *slightly* flat voice acting, it sounds great too. I guess due to their using FRED, the game seems to ape the mission structure of the Freespace games. In other words, the missions...

    *DDR fanatics* Ignition Pad by Redoctane Bestbuy price drop $59.99

    When I first started playing DDR last year I had an ignition pad. The comments about shoddy workmanship are absolutely right on. My first pad wouldn't hook up to my PC (but would play on PS2 just fine). I exchanged it and the second pad had like miscut or misshaped plastic over one of the...

    5 Non-Paying Bidders, Almost 2 Weeks Advice?

    That's an awful lot of trouble to go to. If they wanted to pay you they would have, so I dont think calling would be much help. At this point if it were me I'd just leave the negative feedback and be done with it. They had their chance to either communicate or follow through, and if they...

    MS Points Cards...

    The best deal is always free, and there is a thread elsewhere for the true.com trial where http://www.xbox360achiever.com/ gives you one for free a couple of weeks after you sign up. I did it and yeah, it works. The best deal I got on a per-card basis is using the gamer gift cards at Best Buy...
