Nah, only 43 here :)

Yet another middle age gamer here. I ordered my PS4 from Amazon last night for delivery Saturday. Along with the disposable income I also have a wife that feels bad if I don't get enough gaming time! Our son will either join me, play on a different console, or do some non-gaming activities - he...

A lot of apartment places offer short leases, usually cost a bit more though. Use an online rental places to do some scouting then take a few days to check a few out - is that an option for you? That is what I am planning to do when I relocate with my current employer; though they will pickup...

Many larger cities have extended stay motels; prices aren't too bad assuming you have some place to store your things.

A bit in keeping with your 'buy something for someone else' theme - ArmA2: Combined Operations (download). My son has been wanting it so he can try the DayZ mod, but I am too cheap to buy ArmA 2 for him to try a mod :)

Some of us also play on monitors that do better than 1080p.

I bought refurbished X41's and love them! Very comfortable, easy to hook-up, and sound great. If you have one of the new Xbox designs I don't think you will need any additional cables or adapters - I didn't. I use the optical connection from my Xbox to the headset's transmitter and HDMI from the...

Are our entries tracked by email address? I hope so, I wasn't logged in when I clicked the link and made my donation - D'oh!

Says my code has already been claimed too!

My wife and I stopped into the Oakdale, MN Kmart to return an item and took a quick look through the video games. We were very surprised to see an Xbox 360 Star Wars Kinect bundle on clearance for $300. They only had one and we scooped it up. Our 10 year old will flip when he comes home from...

Awesome! I rarely read the email from Origin, so if I hadn't seen this thread I would have lost out on a free game! I will probably get BF:BC2, but Spore is tempting too...

Thank you all for your suggestions. When my wife learned I was planning to buy a new mouse she gave me my birthday present early - the Steelseries Diablo 3 mouse. So far, it seems to be really nice. This is the first mouse I have owned in a VERY long time that was not made by Logitech. My last...

Looking for some suggestions on a new mouse. I was using a Logitech mX performance mouse, but they have not been lasting too long (replaced under warranty and the replacement did not last long either). Two I have been considering are the Diablo 3 mouse from Steelseries and the Corsair Vengeance...

Thanks, I redeemed the first code. Just tried it out earlier on the PS3 and enjoyed it, but I usually game on 360.

BC doesn't really mean much to me and the used market is something I almost never deal with. That being said, the pricing of DLC and console digital purchases rarely makes any sense. On the PC side of things, I love digital product; however, I will never pay the same price for an all digital...
