I can't wait til November when this huge batch of Day 1 PS4 buyers who also bought a year of PS+ will have their subscription expire. I'm not a huge fan of this month's selection but whining that indie games and 2D games don't belong on PS+ or even PS4 is just idiotic. People expecting full $60 games on PS+ for PS4 is even more idiotic. People are the fucking worst.

And the worst thing of all is that all these whiners are going to re-up anyway because they have to have PS+ to play online anyway. fuck!

Why would people prefer mediocre games like Thief, Knack, and Killzone over something like Velocity X2 which looks to have tons of potential? Just because they originally cost more when they came out and were available to buy at stores doesn't meant those "AAA" games are special. They're not.

"AAA game" is another term that just needs to die. Nobody even knows what they mean or what they're talking about.

I hate people.

This Black Friday will be very interesting. With Microsoft pushing price cuts and Deals with Golds on games, I hope Sony responds adequately when they duke it out on November. Would like to re up on Plus until 2018, at least.

You could just refresh as you play them?

I tried it with the PSP at an airport once as I had forgotten about it and a bunch of stuff had expired. I think the issue was I had to end up downloading the entire game for some reason again as it wasn't refreshing the license and you know how slow the PSP is to download anything.

Not to mention having to go through the download list since the PS3 store always kicks me out within a minute after being in it on the consoles. So if I waited, I'd have to scroll through whatever stuff I purchased since then.

The Vita stinks because the download list always goes back to the first thing on it after picking something to download.

PS4 will probably be the easiest with the refresh licenses options.

First world problems.

What irks me about it is that everyone uses it as a term to describe a "non-indie" game. They say "We need more AAA games!" without knowing what games they want or even what they're talking about. Just because a game is printed on a disc doesn't make it AAA.

 
If I could magically warp to 7pm tonight, I'd do it.  I have a meeting, two interviews, and a family get together here in the next 5 hours.  I just want to go home and play Pixeljunk Racers and SR3.

 
Hey Vig SUBWAY sandwiches are the absolute worst. I've gotten probably $20 in gift cards and I just give them away or a homeless person gets a meal. There's just something wrong with SUBWAY selling pull pork. :puke:

While I dont find them to be the worst, I never enjoyed anything from Subway so I dont go to eat there. But they did something right as I thought they had more stores now than McDs worldwide.

 
I was just looking for a Josh Gordon replacement when I noticed Aaron Hernandez & Randy Moss were available to be picked up. Which one do you guys think I should grab? I hear they both have put up big big points.

Aaron Hernandez, once he gets out of jail, Goodell will suspend him for 4 weeks and he'll be back on the field.

Is there some nutritional reason why they're the worst? My local Subway makes delicious subs, and I don't always get the pulled pork. I had to choose between there and McDonald's for lunch today, so whatever, I guess.

They opened one about 5 mins from me and they're EXCELLENT subs. Most people complain about their prices but you a better sub and they don't skimp on the lunch meats. Whenever I go there I always hear somebody talking shit on SUBWAY and it understandable.

I should add that I vastly prefer Quiznos subs, but I don't have one within driving distance of my work. I also don't have a Jersey Mike's or Jimmy John's in my area.

The #9 is the shiiiit.

 
I put Lenny's Subs as being on par with Jersey Mike's.  You can't go wrong at either place.  Make sure you sign up for Jersey Mike's email.  They usually send a coupon every couple of weeks for a free drink and chips with sub purchase.  Coupons are usually only good for a few days.

This is my favorite deli when I'm back in the Westchester County area in New York - http://www.anthonysdeli.com/

I don't care if it's healthy or not but you order a ham sandwich and the put like 3 thin slices of ham and they want you to add so much vegetables on it to fill you up. The last time I went there I ordered a ham sandwich with lettuce, cucumbers, onions. It felt like I was eating a salad on a bread. Subway is way too cheap on the lunch meats.

A guy I worked with was lucky enough to get the rights to franchise 3-5 Jersey Mike's restaurants and is doing that. I have never tried them because they do not have them anywhere near me in MD.

Part of the problem I always had with subway is that they would pull the meat out from the cooler already pre-cut and dried out. In addition to being a small portion than desired.

 
BAM fuck YEAH! Complain about it online and it shall pass. Just beat D with a lil vita youtube sync and bam. just like that.

Plat should be easy as pie now, just some gold/weapons upgrade grinding. booooooya

also it sucks when you look at game percentage and find a game has tons of dlc trophies...

While everything you said is correct, you're failing to account for one aspect of the situation; cost. If an indie game comes out and I'm interested, it starts at maybe $15-$20 and is $10 at the next sale or in PS+ within six months for quite a few titles. A "AAA" game can take at least a year or two to get to that point, and often when they hit PS+ they're still not hitting those sale prices. To me that's the appeal of AAA games hitting PS+; that they're getting to a cheap point so that I can play them without having to wait a few years or get lucky in a flip/glitch/PM situation.

I'd try Lenny's but never heard of them. Is Lenny's just a local shop for you? I agree to sign up for the Jersey Mikes email offers plus their points system is awesome to get FREE subs. I love the sub talk.

Lenny's is great. I absolutely love their hot pepper relish. It's delicious.

 
I played both Joe Danger games on XBLA and got all the achievements. It was a challenge so I'm proud of that. I've been wanting to play through them on PSN and was wondering what happened to the Vita version. I'm glad we're getting it Day 1 so that's an automatic win in my book. Going from JD2 to JD1 was a bitch though. They changed the boosting and made it easier for the sequel so it made it difficult to play the original afterwards. I believe the Vita version has the upgraded boost so it shouldn't be as frustrating.

I'm happy I kept passing on sales for most of the older games. Didn't get burned like Tyler :p On Xbox 360 it sucks since I own most games that have become free. I'm happy to start fresh on GWG for XB1 and I usually don't own stuff that's free on PS+.

Any of you guys have a Primo hoagies? Not sure if they are a national chain but people go apeshit over their sandwiches around here. I like them, but they're kind of expensive and if I'm ordering a sub for dinner I usually get something heartier like a cheesesteak or something.

I always tell them double meat. They charge extra for it, but it beats eating a huge loaf of bread with barely anything on it.
