    Xbox Arcade $179.99 + FSSS --AMAZON

    Given that my out of warranty 360 just red-ringed, this was a pretty good deal for someone like me in need of a replacement in a hurry.

    XBOX 360 Red Ring of Death FAQ: Soon to be known as the Red Dot of Death! :P

    Just got a red ring on my 37 month old console:( Not sure if I should send it in for repairs or buy a new arcade. With a new arcade I spend an extra $100, but get another 3 yr warranty, an extra controller, and a newer system less likely to break down. Also, I wouldn't have to wait 3 weeks...

    Looking for a Cheapass Laptop

    My 2 year old laptop is dying on me and I'm thinking that if it ends up being too much to repair, I may just buy a new one. I'm considering even just getting a netbook as pretty much all I ever use my comp for is the internet and word processing. I'm considering this...

    Persona 4 - $36.99 on Amazon now! (was $34.99)

    Has anyone who's preordered NOT had theirs ship? I'm not in any big rush to play it (I have Fallout 3 and Fable 2 in the meantime), but I want to make sure I get my preorder artbook. It said "while supplies last," so I don't think they're guaranteed. But I think it may be like P3's soundtrack...

    Any deals on Fable 2?

    I've looked at quite a few black Friday ads and haven't seen a single sale on Fable 2. The closest I could find was Fred Meyers having all games 20% off, so it'd be $48, which is nice, but not quite nice enough for me to bite on. I was hoping to find it for $40 or even $45 I might do. Am I...

    Looking for a PS2 controller for PS3 adapter

    I heard that there's such thing as an adapter so you could use a PS2 controller for a PS3. I saw a deal on 'em a while back, before I had any multiplayer PS3 games, so I passed on it, but now I'd like one. I can't seem to recall where they're sold or even what they're called. Any suggestions?

    Fallout 3 - Gen. Discussion & Info - 'GOTY' Edition w/All 5 DLC Packs 10.13.09

    I'm thinking of picking up either this or Fable 2. Can anyone who's played both shed any light on the core differences? I mildly liked Oblivion, but not that much. I found the combat, stealth elements, and NPC conversations horribly clunky and not at all fun. Yet I still enjoyed wandering...

    Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia Releasing late October, Price $29.99

    The voice acting is so bad that I wonder if it's intentional. I mean SotN was known for its awful voice-acting, so this wouldn't be too much of a stretch. It does make me laugh though. Especially the dudes you rescue back at the village.

    Little Big Planet - Gen. Discussion & Info

    Eh, if anything that icon promotes Christianity, so I don't think it would be much of an issue. Though that image did strike me as odd too.

    Little Big Planet - Gen. Discussion & Info

    I don't think it's the main theme. I've seen a few LBP trailers and hadn't heard it yet. Here's a link to the level & song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dM_e05ADio

    Little Big Planet - Gen. Discussion & Info

    They probably read the track listing somewhere online and knew of the song already. It's a shame they had to take it out though. I've played the first 6 levels of story mode and it's my favorite song yet in the game.

    Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia Releasing late October, Price $29.99

    I'm about 3 hours in and loving it so far. I'm not sure if it's better than Dawn of Sorrow (probably not), but it's still amazing. I was one of the few who really liked Portrait of Ruin. The level design was dissapointing in the second half, but I thought it had probably the best combat the...

    Little Big Planet - Gen. Discussion & Info

    One of my only concerns about the story mode is that I've heard there are some items that you can only collect with 2 or more people. I don't like this idea as if you're playing it single-player you could spend a great while trying to deduce how to get an item, only to find out that it's...

    Little Big Planet - Gen. Discussion & Info

    I got as close as humanly possible to owning Little Big Planet without actually owning it. In fact, I may have even owned it for approx one second. I called a Blockbuster that had it for rent and sale, so I had them hold a copy for me. The place was rather far away, so I had to take a bus...

    Little Big Planet - Gen. Discussion & Info

    I found a blockbuster that has it and is holding a copy for me. I won't be able to pick it up for another 4 hours though, so I'm hoping whoever works the night shift doesn't do a 180 on me. Especially as it's a half hour busride away.

    Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia Releasing late October, Price $29.99

    I got a call from gamestop that it'll be in tomorrow. I'm not sure that I trust the accuracy of the call, but it's had the side effect of vastly getting my hopes up. Now I'll be extremely disappointed if it doesn't come out tomorrow.

    Dead Space - Gen. Discussion & Info

    There were a few other nifty areas, like some room where everything is blowing really hard, and the Zero-G hallway leading up to the asteroid defense part (which I hated, btw). I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly what it is about the aesthetic that looks bland and how they could have...

    Dead Space - Gen. Discussion & Info

    I'm actually a bit underwhelmed by this game. I was really looking forward to it, but now that I've rented it and beat the first 4 chapters I'd give it a 7/10. The main problem I have with it is that it's soooo repetitive. The level design is mostly rather bland with a lot of samey...
