    Just signed into PSN? Just gave up right to class action!

    I was finally thinking of getting back online (I might jump on the Amazon BF3 deal) and was wondering if anyone actually opted out of the binding arbitration or whatever Sony put in the EULA a month ago. For some reason I just pictured Sony cancelling the account of anyone who actually mailed a...

    Worth trading fat 80gb PS3 for $200?

    I read this like a month after I finally get rid of my 2 year old box. Oh well.

    Steam Deal Thread V1 - Thread closed. See V2 thread for the deals!

    I love Civ IV and the reviews of V don't have me aching to buy it. I did get a Mac over Christmas though and at $7.50 I was thinking of downloading this to try Steam on Mac. I was waiting for SP1 of Windows 7 to come out before I bought a copy to run in Parallels or Bootcamp, so some OSX...

    [DEAD] Logitech G27 $199 + Free Shipping @ Logitech.com

    Appears to be dead as of now. I got "invalid code". Is the G27 really that much better than the Driving Force? I will have to figure out if I want to try and wait and see if Logitech or anyone else does another sale. I just called Logitech's website support. Apparently they don't have any...

    PS3 Extended Warranties - Which & Why?

    I bought mine with my American Express. They add an extra year to the warranty. Plus, I've never got the impression that the failure rate on PS3s was so bad that you needed to worry about it not making it very far once the warranty was out. Especially if you don't put it in a tiny cabinet...

    Gran Turismo 5 black friday & cyber monday week deals

    Anyone else notice GT5 in the Sunday ads today? Target and Sears still said the release was coming 11/2. Best Buy at least changed it to some vague "coming out someday" in their Sony 3D bundle that I think was supposed to coincide with the launch. Target even still has Nov. 2 on their...

    Gran Turismo 5 PS3 $49.99 at dell.com

    The problem with this deal is that I didn't see anywhere that Dell indicated that this would end up in your hands on release day, or anywhere near that. I had my girlfriend pre-order on Amazon with the SLS and the $10 credit. It was supposed to be a b'day present since my b'day is Nov 4, but...

    FIFA 11 Discussion Thread

    Can anyone speak to the career/franchise/dynasty/manager (whatever they actually call it) mode? In the past I've always been let down by FIFA career modes. I mean one year they didn't even have dollars for player values, it was some points system. I am a big fan of playing games like...

    Gran Turismo 5 - 1000+ Cars! - 1/6: GT5 XL Edition w/DLC & Spec 2.0 - 1/17 - $39.99

    Well I wish they would at least give me a new date. I was not planning on buying the new CoD because GT5 would be out soon after. Or maybe I found my excuse to buy NBA 2k11. I had basically not been shopping for games at all these last few months, knowing they would all collect dust after...

    Gran Turismo 5 - 1000+ Cars! - 1/6: GT5 XL Edition w/DLC & Spec 2.0 - 1/17 - $39.99

    Really can't wait for this. I am even debating if I should buy Civ V or any other game between now and November 2, since it will be a lock that those games will collect dust after that. The only downer is the new COD comes out a week later. After being late the the multi-player party on...

    Amazon Logitech G27 Racing Wheel $164.37 after $60 rebate

    Sucks I missed this, but with 11/2 starting to look "real" for a GT5 release date, I am starting to scout for a wheel. Hopefully whatever I buy is fully compatible with GT5. Anyone have, or know anyone with one of these Fanatec Porsche wheels? http://www.fanatec.com/ I just love the idea of...

    Buy 1 get 3 free on GEAR MONKEY accessories! TRU in store/online. Expires May 31st!

    "Protect your hand with these universal gaming gloves. The perfect accessory for a true gamer" I guess there are no true gamers in here. I also guess I am one of the few who never found the need to protect my hands from that PS3 controller.

    Rumor: PSN Subscription Plan Info

    Here is how I think it will go down. They will roll out PSN+ or whatever it is going to be called and it will have cross-game chat, maybe a free game, and I saw something about "extended" demos. Yawn for me anyway unless the games are good. Then when the uptake isn't what they thought...

    ECA Update: Amazon discount gone "for the time being"; in process of self-destruction

    Well this is the first email I've ever seen besides the one I got after joining. I just find it deplorable that the site would encourage members to join one of these penny auction sites. Why don't they just start directing members to phishing scams while they are at it?

    ECA Update: Amazon discount gone "for the time being"; in process of self-destruction

    Not that the ECA has any sort of a decent reputation around this place, but I found this hilarious, and more proof that most of the board members here were spot on with their assessment of the ECA and Hal. I haven't got around to canceling my account yet, and today I received (SURPRISE!!) the...

    Call of Duty MW2 online noob

    Play Mercenary Team Death Match. No parties, so you shouldn't come across a crew that is too well organized. Either that, or play Ground War. With 9 people on the other team, you can start getting some kills quicker that way and start getting weapon add-ons and improve your perks. I never...

    ECA Discussion Thread - WARNING: Some CAGs Who Cancelled Are Being Auto-Renewed

    Oh, I highly doubt that would happen. Between this PR mess and the "scammers", I don't think Amazon wants anything to do with Hal and the ECA.

    PS3 or DSi - What should Santa bring me?

    For the record, I much prefer to use my PS3 as a blu-ray player than my stand alone Samsung. Certain BD-Live equipped discs really seem to hate loading on a player without storage to write some files too.

    About Best Buy 5-15% Bing.com cashback, which is it?

    With some of those Bing deals, it can depend on the type of item you buy. I had something similar with Nordstrom. I would just search for whatever you are buying using Bing Shopping, and it should give you an option to buy from Best Buy, and tell you what the cash back is. In fact, with...

    ECA Discussion Thread - WARNING: Some CAGs Who Cancelled Are Being Auto-Renewed

    Yeah, it is still a shame that the ECA seems to be completely incompetent. I'll be sending in my cancellation in a couple weeks. Maybe the one employee will be done with the CAG box by then. Hal is probably popping champagne with his industry buddies, enjoying his million bucks in management...
