    monoprice dual PS3 controller charger @ $9.14

    Yes. I use a Windows driver so I can use my PS3 controller for PC games and it charges while I do. I'm not sure if it will charge properly without a driver though. Just plug it into your PC and if it says you plugged in a PS3 controller I'm sure you're all set. Otherwise, just look for the...

    GOG.com just closed down - Publicity Stunt - Close Thread

    No drm WAS the entire purpose of gog to me. If they add drm or go to a client-based Steam style, I'll just get all my games from Steam. They have better sales and I don't feel like installing another client. The ONLY reason I supported gog.com as much as I did was because of the lack of drm...

    GOG.com just closed down - Publicity Stunt - Close Thread

    I guess I'm partly to blame. I have a list of games I wanted to buy, but was hoping for a holiday sale like last year where they would all be on sale. I was probably going to spend between $50 and $100 on that site this holiday. I had bought around 30 games on the site already though. Damn...

    Machinarium for $5 (PC/Linux/Mac)

    They are complaining that the game is already pirated, so why act like your paying customers are pirates - it's already out there. I also question their 'estimates' based on feedback. I find it hard to believe that the point and click crowd is so rife with pirates. I doubt there are too many...

    (OOS) $20 XBL 12 mo UPDATE: YMMV with in-store price-match

    I know. It's shocking that the same people that run their mouths on XBL would be so selfish, isn't it?

    GOG.com Holiday Sale - 25% to 40% Off

    I think they are one of the few distributors that realize that you can't prevent piracy. This is how it should have always been, rather than inconveniencing the paying customers. No copy protection scheme has stopped pirates in the history of gaming. The only hope to stop it is to go to 100%...

    UPDATE 9/8/09: PLAYSTATION VISA Promo - Back to $100 credit instead of $300

    Don't think it works that way. You met the requirement to get $100 for the first 3 months, but you'll probably have to spend another $1500 during the months 4-6 to get the final $100.

    UPDATE 9/8/09: PLAYSTATION VISA Promo - Back to $100 credit instead of $300

    Anyone know if the $299 has to be one item, or your entire purchase? I know it doesn't have to be used on a PS3, but I'm wondering if a purchase of more than one thing that adds up to over $299 on one receipt would qualify as well.

    Best Buy PMing Used prices @ GS & GC for New

    Just to bring up some points that have been made, but the 'sweet' people don't seem to be understanding: 1) Gamestop used prices are usually only $5 less than new for new releases, and old releases can often be found cheaper than their used prices. Aside from the special deal like 'trade in 2...

    UBISOFT is brining games to GOG.com!!!!

    I don't have Crysis on Steam, but every game I do have will play in offline mode (L4D, TF2). Will some games play in offline mode while others won't?

    PS3 BC Metal Gear Solid Bundle Returns to Sears

    Well, they lost a PS3 sale from me. I've already bought a PS2, but I'm not going to have it taking up space on my entertainment center with my Wii, 360, plus a PS3. If that was really their thought process on the decision, I can see why they are dead last and still sinking.

    Gears of War 2 Deal Roundup

    What is the procedure? I've accidentally ordered a game that was out of stock, and when I tried to cancel it, the site said the order was being processed and could no longer be cancelled. I've checked every time since, and when I go into 'change or cancel an order' that's what it says. I had...

    Gamestop - Trade 2 from specified list and get NEW from list for $19.99 ***DEAD***

    Umm... look at what they sell the games for before you go on about taking advantage of them. That being said, I traded in TW08 and Oblivion to get Fallout3 yesterday and they are not on the new list. I'll consider myself lucky, but I wouldn't say I took advantage of them.

    Guitar Hero: World Tour - Gen. Discussion & Info

    My red pad has to be hit a little harder than the others to register. And my right cymbal just plain misses hits unless you hit it very hard dead center - which completely ruins the illusion of playing a cymbal. Even then, I miss a hit every now and then. From the sound of the forums, this is...
