    Target Ad 4/1-4/7

    I saw that target had matched BB's prices on Hugo, Tin Tin, Kung Fu Panda 2, and a couple other Blu-rays (17.99), at least in store. They had the lower price tags placed conspicuously, and also said "for a limited time".

    pc desktop to hd tv

    Interestingly enough, usually more expensive TVs have more image-processing going on, and do not support 4-4-4. I just read up on models that do at http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1381724 and then shopped around to see what I could purchase locally. (I dislike shipping things as...

    pc desktop to hd tv

    I have a 40" Samsung hooked up to my PC; I find it works awesomely for watching movies etc, while doing something else on my other monitor. I did my research to get a 4-4-4 TV and then I just used a HDMIDVI cable and it works great.

    The Muppets (3 Disc Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy + Soundtrack Download Card) Preoder

    I was originally going to just check BB on Saturday, but I decided to swing by after work on Tuesday instead. There were a couple lunchboxes on the shelf, and I grabbed one and had no trouble in getting my coupon accepted. The cashier seemed to have trouble scanning it, but he just typed in...

    Mass Effect 3 PC Thread! Am I the only one playing it on PC lol

    I picked up a copy from the GMG deal. It's been pretty fun in the few hours I've had free to play it. (Now that I'm working again, I can afford mah video games, but I no longer can stay up late playing them except on the weekends. Quite the conundrum.) I found I had nasty stuttering problems...

    Razer Onza or Microsoft controller for Windows?

    I just use my arcade stick controller from my PS3 on my PC when I need it (super meat boy, etc), but if I was looking for a dual-stick style controller, I'd go with the Microsoft one. I've gotten decent mice, joysticks, etc from them in the past, they *should* have decent driver support for...

    I got the code both in the email they sent me and on my final purchase confirmation page. (I did get 2 emails, one account confirmation and one for the order itself).

    Green Man Gaming (Steam) Deals: 25% Off Hitman

    Hmm, evidently the Green Man Gaming site greatly dislikes '+' signs in email address. It throws a 500 error on the account signup page. Works fine otherwise, but I guess no paypal for me.

    A keyboard (mechanical) - a help/question thread.

    I have a Filco mechanical keyboard as well (FKB104M/EB), which seems to be about the same as the Rosewill one with cherry brown switches from the pictures I've seen. I really like it, especially compared the old cheap keyboard it replaced. (I decided I didn't want to have buy a new keyboard...

    Launch day. What's the word?

    I stopped by my local Target around 7:00 pm, didn't see any Vita games or systems on the shelves. The guy at the counter had 'em all in a box under the counter. Not sure how many systems they had, but he said they only had 4 titles: Modnation Racers, Wipeout, Lumines, and Little Deviants. He...

    Video Card fan won't spin!

    Are your other fans spinning? I had some defective tri-speed case fans that refused to spin at the slow setting, and if the didn't spin, somehow my video card wouldn't receive enough power, resulting in no video card fan spinning and no POST. I could set them on medium and everything would be fine.

    Help! PC hangs at motherboard splash screen...

    Reminds of a computer I had at my old job. It wouldn't boot when I had my ergonomic keyboard plugged in (USB). It would just hang early on the boot sequence. It was fine if I plugged in the keyboard after it started up however.

    Modern Warfare 2 has NO dedicated servers

    I just noticed the rapidly growing thread on another forum that IW has announced that PC COD:MF2 will be matchmaking only! All multiplayer will go through their own IW.NET system. It would appear that Activision is trying to kill the custom map community, along with clan servers and what not...
