    Amazon "promotional credit" query

    I have some Amazon promotional credit ($10 now and $20 after Arkham City ships) and I also have a few pre-orders (Skyrim and Saints Row 3) but I wanted to know how this credit works with pre-orders. I applied the $10 to my Saints pre-order but Skyrim ships first so would the whole $20 be applied...

    Is the Gears of War 3 Xbox 360 console worth it?

    So I missed the awesome $75 credit with the $299 xbox 360 slim yesterday and was pretty bummed. I can still pop for one at bestbuy but then I will be paying about $23 tax on top of the the $299. Anyway the Gears 3 special edition is pretty impressive from just a technical/budget standpoint...

    YMMV (Now with Weblinks) Picked up Dirt 2, Ninja Gaiden 2 and 50 Cent Blood on the sand at the San Diego (Aero) Fry's tonight. 50 Cent was $20.38! That is the lowest I have seen it. It was listed with a red-tag, which normally means it wasn't an advertised sale. But the prices often hold for...

    Is GOW2 going to look like crap on the PS3?

    Does anyone know what resolutions that God of War 2 is going to support? I loved the first one but I popped it in the PS3 the other day and even with progressive scan enabled it looked like ass (although not as god-awful terrible as most of the other ps2 games). I would really love to play...
