Yeah we try to split up Saturday winners. Maybe EastX didn't have time to include last week's winners list in the email he sent to Bandit. He's also a brand new mod since a couple of the other ones haven't shown up much recently.

But anyway, congrats!
Yeah, I didn't figure I stood much chance of winning again after winning last week. I'll try to stop in and watch the next few weeks but won't enter the giveaways so everybody gets a fair shot.

 
The Order is all done. I don't think it deserved the hate it got, though it really should have either had more replayability or a lower price tag. I'm not sure of my total playtime, but I'd estimate about 9 hours. I'll drop it off at Best Buy tomorrow.

Cleaner, can you mark that one done for me? That should make my row all green.
Saying something should have been a budget title pretty much caps its rating at a 7 or 8 max, doesn't it? How is it getting an inordinate amount of hate when it's getting scores of 6 to 7?

I'm very disappointed with the hate for the order, I mean can everyone agree it was one of the best looking games ever? Short, no replay ability... Other then that it's been one of the best games I have played next gen and the best exclusive I've played next gen. Shadow of mordor is still the best game period next gen for me, but the order is right there.

This also sounds like almost every review out there. Possibly best looking game ever, with derivative gameplay and a short story with no replayability.

I'm wondering why you're disappointed with reviews of the game when the reviews line up almost perfectly with your feelings of the game.

There really wasnt any other options other than either me or you likely winning. There were very few people entering for the PS4 option.

It wouldn't have necessarily needed to be a budget title--even $50 would have been a better price point. I just had a lot more fun with it overall than reviewers seemed to, and I'm hopeful for the sequel.

 
Thanks for checking the Black Market so often! I think I've gotten like 20 collectibles from you, lol. Sorry I've only been able to reciprocate with fetishes. I kind of assumed that with Pharm and another person who expressed interest (Bums?) checking the market frequently we'd get a solid cross-pollination thing happening, but alas...


I've gotten like 90% of my packages from Jimbo but only once or twice from you Pharm, even when both of you were on within minutes of each other. The PST forum says you can receive multiple packages from people at the same time but I dunno, it's always been a 1-1 result for me so far.


I've still got a long way to go before completing all the different sets so I'll definitely keep it up. Been checking the market about 3-4 times a day so far. :)
I'll check the Black market tonight. I never used it in GA but I'll see if I got anything you guys need. I'm sure there lots I need.

I was all over helping you guys out and me for the bounties. And I forgot the game deleted my save so looks like I'll have to replay the game. Hopefully some of you are still playing then.

I will probably keep updating till Near goes offline or if no one here is benefiting.

Hes upset with the #s and not the actual words of the review it sounds like.

Game was ok, not bad, not great, I would suggest playing through it, but not if you have to pay more than 15-20.

 
So Magrunner is starting to frustrate me.  The last 10 levels you have to beat without dying.  That really was not an issue up until now.  In the first level you have to kill a beast with practically no time to spare.  The controls are really not made for precision.  It looks like save file abuse is going to be needed unfortunately.

 
Damn, the OOP MST3K set I ordered used from hastings, one of the discs has a small crack on the inner ring of the disc. Anything I can do to stop that from spreading?

Dear Diary,

So I got a new router today. My old one just up and broke. It would show power but wifi and routing didnt work at all. It was wonky last night and then today was just kaput. Went and traded in the order and picked up this Asus rt-n66u from best buy. Its a three antenna deal and is N  wifi. The geek in me wanted the nighthawk from netgear, but 200 dollars is a little silly for a router. 

I love the new router so far, it had an easier setup than most ive used before and the speed is really good. My old router was apparently shit. Went from 1.3 down on it to over 4 down on this one. I get 7+ when I run wired. Havent noticed much difference in the range but havent really tested that to be honest.

As of now (roughly 12 hours with it) I would definitely recommend it.

Haven't beat it yet, but come on. Are nice graphics really all you're looking for? I don't care if a game is short and has no replayability, as long as it's fun. This has to be one of the most poorly paced games I've ever played. I'm glad reviews took it down a peg because it's kind of insulting how gameplay seems to be an afterthought. Like we wouldn't notice as long as they made it pretty. I would rank Infamous above this for sure if we are taking best exclusive. I'd actually rate Sunset Overdrive above both of them, but nevermind that (there are several 3rd party games better than any exclusive anyway).

Dear Tom,

I have the AC version of this. Works great, haven't had a single problem with it in the year or so since I bought it.

Yea looked at that one too, also 200. I dont have anything that is ac and n speed is perfectly fine for me right now, but yea that looks like a really nice router too.

Boom goes the grail. I too have finished The Order. I don't care what people think about it. I had fun.

Trading it back in tomorrow means it will cost me about $7 in best buy space bucks. It was worth it to me. Not sure why in today's market people are hung up on msrp for physical titles.

I don't have any AC devices either, but figured future-proofing was the better way to go. I expect the next phones the wife and I get will have AC. She'll probably be getting a new laptop before too long, too.

 
Still don't understand how you can play and beat a game within a few days of getting it. I'm always thinking to myself "I've been playing this too long, I better take a break so it lasts."

Gator. I've had a raspberry and apple Belgian Lambic recently. Both were good but lacking on the alcohol content.

 
Ordering my PS4 tonight, hoping I can get the PSTV for free that they're apparently doing starting 12 am EST. I have no idea what I'll do with the PSTV, but i'm sure after looking into the remote play (which I still don't really understand) I'll figure something out.

Whats there to understand?

You hook the pstv up to another tv and you stream the ps4 to that tv. It's awesome.

Zimm never did answer whether the BB PS4/PSV bundle can be price-matched at Target. If it could, that'd be the way to go--combine the PM with the 10% off coupon from Carthweel to save yourself $40. Then get another game or two. :)

 
Does completing the web game Monster High Secret Creepers Adventure count towards the 4 for Feb? (Co-op with a very loud 7 year old)

 
This Ratchet and Clank trophy where you have to kill all the enemies on a planet with the wrench sucks because they keep killing each other like fucking dumbasses.  And I guess it's kinda glitch because the guide recommends leaving and returning to the planet every time you die just to make sure the trophy pops.

Yeah, time was short before the stream. But I'm glad to see some of our CAG bros winning prizes, including PitfallHarry and Therm. And very pleased that everyone enjoyed the stream and the developer's participation this time. :)

 
So best buy was saying there was only 1 minute left for this weeks weekly ad, now that time has passed and the ad still shows last weeks….huh…guess I'll play the waiting game. 

 
Thats all? Why wouldn't i just play on the tv that the ps4 is connected to then?
You only got one tv?

My usage scenario is my gaming tv is upstairs. I have it hooked up to my tv downstairs so I can get my gaming in while downstairs watching kid or whatever.

It was in the bedroom but wife got super pissed about it when I was playing it every night at bedtime and she said the clicking on the controller bothered her. Which is bullshit cause I play my vita all the time and she doesnt have issue with that...

edit oh yea, you got a viter? if not you can play vita games on it. Well some vita games. theres a list.

damn you guys are rich, i would never spend $100 for a router. i am still using the linksys router i got for $29.99 five years ago.

I've never seen a router last more than 2 years, let alone 5 years. Holy shit. All the cheap $50ish routers definitely die on me within 2 years.

Well, the old router I had didn't die, but it would intermittently lose connections. I wanted an AC router for a replacement, so that knocks the price range up quite a bit. I did get it on a pretty significant sale, though.

We have the tv in the kitchen that I have but it's really small so I don't game on it.

We haven't gotten around to getting a new tv since we've been waiting to move into a bigger place, but our damn annoying ass neighbors refuse to move. My landlords been waiting for them to leave because she wants to remodel their place for us to move into and make it all snazzy, but she can't kick them out for no reason so we're just sort of waiting. :(

I guess i'll keep it for when we move though then

edit: and ya, I have the vita.

I usually just stuck to 50ish routers, im a believer in getting what you pay for with routers now.

the only reason i can think of is you guys live in big houses, that is why i said rich. i live in a rented studio apartment. i am literally only one door away from my router placement.

Wild fermented beers like lambics generally do not have high alcohol content. The wild yeast strains are just not as resistant to alcohol as a lot of the other ones that have been engineered to survive in higher concentrations of alcohol.
