    Discless Netflix on PS3 and Wii -- anyone heard rumors?

    As I recall, the Xbox exclusivity deal with Netflix expires this month, September 2010. Has anyone heard about official Netflix "channels" for the PS3 and Wii? (I've got a Wii with a busted disc drive that I'd love to turn into a Netflix box for our basement TV.)

    Amazon's FSSS: Fine points of split-up-the-shipment policy?

    For as long as I've shopped at Amazon and used their Free Super Saver Shipping, if I've combined items in an order that were in stock and not in stock, they've gone ahead and shipped the in-stock items in one immediate shipment and the non-in-stock items in a later shipment as they became...

    Wordpress hosting

    A search of this forum shows no one has asked this question in 2010, so: I've like to set up a Wordpress blog under my own hosting, and am looking for a cheapass deal. I'm aware of 1and1, GoDaddy and Dreamhost; what else is out there? My site will be a fairly standard Wordpress install, and I...

    Non new-release BDs 2 for $24.50 at closing Hollywood Videos/Movie Galleries

    Right now the closing Hollywood Videos and Movie Galleries are running their own pre-liquidation liquidation sale. All rental movies, except new releases, are on sale for an unimpressive $9 apiece, but Blus are $15 or 2 for $24.50. For some Blus, not a great price, but pretty good for others. I...

    SPEED RACER BD $10 @ Walmart (don't think it's YMMV)

    Saw this in St Croix Falls, Wis. It was with a bunch of other movies that have traditionally been $10 at Walmart. EDITED TO ADD: This movie doesn't even show up as being available to purchase from Amazon('s mobile site). Is it going out of print?

    Audio dropouts on Mirror's Edge for PS3 slim?

    Bought Mirror's Edge last night, playing it on a 250GB PS3 slim, and sometimes the audio just goes out. If I pause the game and monkey with the audio settings, it usually comes back on; likewise if I just keep playing it eventually returns. But audio cues are a major part of this (pretty damn...

    I need to get my bro-in-law a bluetooth headset for his iPhone for Christmas and I have no idea what to pick up, or even what variables to care about. Any tips or sales would be appreciated. I'm thinking of order Marvel: Ultimate Alliance today from Amazon while it's part of their Lightning...

    What are the best multiplayer games FOR TWO PEOPLE IN THE SAME ROOM?

    Went shopping for a new TV, ended up with a PS3. We have a Wii for family gaming; most of my "grown-up" gaming is playing first-person shooters with a friend of mine who doesn't have a PS3. But when I skim reviews, it's hard to separate comments about offline multiplayer from those about online...

    Most cheapass deal for a 40"-50" HDTV w/ 24p?

    Hey -- I'm shopping for my first HDTV, and as I investigate, one criterion that strikes me as being important is what they're calling 24p. (In brief: Film is shot at 24 frames per second, and so if the TV's refresh rate is a multiple of 24, it's capable of essentially displaying movies at 24...

    What's the CAGiest thing to do? Okami, Boom Blox, Wii Ware, etc.

    I try to be sparing with my new game purchases, but I need something for the Wii. My two oldest kids, 5 and 3, really like "playing" games like Twilight Princess, Zack & Wiki, Super Mario Galaxy and Prince of Persia (GC) with me, and the 5-year-old has some OK remote-handling skills for Wii...

    Can I use my Psyclone Gamecube s-video cables with the Wii?

    I have a third-party s-video cable for my Gamecube, and inspecting the data out port on the Wii, they're similar but not the same. I once ruined a pair of in-computer speakers by mistaking a headphone jack for an RCA jack, so I'm not really interested in trying to connect up the cable to the Wii...

    CAG needs a thread about DS homebrew

    Trying to find info on CAG about how to run homebrew on my DS and I see a lot of locked topics, etc. I am genuinely not interested in trying to run ROMs of old console games, and so I'd like to see if we can conduct this thread without the word "ROM" appearing again. I really like boardgames...
