GGT 306 owes its success to the Helix Fossill

everyone on dat WII U swag

so the story of lightning returns is she has to kill people to save them.... uh ok

 
man, my regular UPS delivery guy has not been delivering my items recently, and just leaving the UPS infonotice, and stating delivery attempt fail. I am not sure if i piss him off, or something. it is being 3 straight times, that this is be happening. 1st time was with amazon, and the last two time being bestbuy.

 
I had the craziest idea last night, but it could work. Let's make another video game review website, but host it on a blogging website (like Tumblr or something), so we don't have to pay fees

maybe you just live in a shit neighborhood

 
Better than it getting left and stolen like happens with our packages.  :bomb:

Still no Vita delivery.  Thought it would come today as I got an e-mail alert that had today as the new scheduled delivery day, and it was at the local sort facility this morning.  But it changed back to "adverse weather-no delivery estimate available" so I guess they're still way behind from the snow/ice last week and it didn't make it on the truck.

Hopefully tomorrow I guess.  Not sure if my fiance will be home for it though, and I can't be as I teach Tuesdays/Thursdays this semester.

it just started happening 1 month ago. it has never happened before 1 month ago. either i got a new UPS guy who delivers around my area, or my USual UPS guy is piss at me for some reason, and is now messing with me.

yeah, so i had to basically call them up, and tell them to just leave it in my local UPS hub center, so i can go pick it up myself .

Or packages could be getting stolen elsewhere in the neighborhood. The drivers are responsible for lost packages so a lot of times they'll stop leaving stuff in neighborhoods if they've had to pay for some that got grabbed off porches/door steps. UPS will even make some neighborhoods signature required areas and not give the driver a choice if they have a lot of confirmed thefts.

are you getting it from amazon, there is a good chance it is going to be delivery through USPS, since amazon like to save money now by using UPS mail innovations, which takes even longer by ups handing it off to usps.

all my items that had shipped through ups requires a signature. the guy even asked for my frickin name, asking me if i am the right person, basically short of asking me for a proper identification like a drivers license

No, it is from Cowboom.

Our Amazon stuff was still coming UPS though since we have Prime. I did get a lot of Amazon orders through Mail Innovations (got it all in one or two days still though) when I lived downtown in a condo though. For whatever reason it was still just UPS delivering out here in the 'burbs.

We just have all our Amazon stuff sent to our PO Box now as that's easier than having to be home for UPS since they won't leave packages any more after we had 4 stolen around X-mas. Cowboom just wouldn't ship to PO Box so had to deal with UPS for this one.

Yeah, it's an area that's gotten flagged by UPS and/or the driver then since neither Amazon or Best Buy require signatures (or even have options at checkout for you to have them require one).

Did you pick up an Xbox One? Need some Titanfall buddies.

For that matter, who in here at all picked one up?

I think only one or two people have picked one up so far. It's an expensive year for me so at the earliest I'll probably wait it out for black friday.
 
Yeah, I mostly just set mine to loyal puppy mode and spend my time trying to jump on the backs of enemy titans because fuck those guys.

Sounds like my UPS guy. I'd make a complaint. That's what I did and now he delivers stuff right.

We should. The review site I actually review for is kinda falling apart, I think. Plus, getting more than a little sick of a one paragraph limit. I need space to talk about everything I want and that seems difficult without a podcast.

 
man, i need to get a new dualshock 3 controller. the only i am using right now , which i got from amazon is not holding charges properly. i remember buying about 6 dualshock 3 controllers for spare over a  year ago. but then ended up trading 5 of them. now when i need a  new controller, i don't have any.

Or, you know, put a face to them.

Also, why you gotta lock the previous threads? I mean, I completely understand why, but now if you wanna quote from it, you have to do it the long way. So stupid. Not you, the fact that you gotta do it the long way.

 
I love this GGT title!!!!!

Q: Is this a good GGT title?

Yeah, as others have said it's really only me here so far that has one, although you are already on my friends list

I really like the titans, I got to use the ogre from a burn card as well and it was sweet. But yeah, being able to squish/punch the pilots is amazing and the different guns/perk combos you can do with the custom titans make them really fun to play as IMO. Also, I've played a lot of this beta lol

So that people don't post in them.

There's nothing worthwhile to quote in any GGT anyways.

Except for like everything.

 
Should I play Darksiders 2 or Dead Space 2?

I kind of don't want to get into DS2 cuz I'll probably maybe be playing through DS3 with Mando-Dawg and I don't want to just completely burn out on it so that's why I'm thinking of playing DS2 instead even though DS2 is probably a way better game than DS2. I mean, I'll still have fun with DS2, so it's no big deal since I dug the first DS.

Yeah, got my copy pre-ordered for the One

 
dead space 2, way better game than darksiders 2. why do you think thq went bankrupt, that is how bad darksiders 2 was. the people voted with their wallet.

 
Last of Us Dlc ripped off gone home. Wow.

Never thought I'd see the day where a cg movie copied another one. Where's the originality at?

O, i guess i will play the peasant version on xbox 360, if i do decide to get it. i will probably put in a $5 store deposit at bestbuy this week, and decide on release date, whether to get it or not. is the $40 price for 1 year of xbox live the cheapest deal so far?

No bad memories. It was just shitty customer service and I just played Wii games in the meantime. And it got me to pick up a ps3 which I probably wouldn't have otherwise, and that's been my main gaming platform since.
