[quote name='CaseyRyback']Oh and that Toshiba tv at walmart seems mighty tempting. 65 inches ay that price is pretty awesome. Might have to see if I can snag one from there on black Friday.[/QUOTE]

Only terrible part is the deal starts at 8PM.

Who knows how early you have to get there...
 
[quote name='munch']There's a $42 Skyrim for that triple on amazon warehouse.[/QUOTE]

Mighty tempting. However, I've got this $30 kmart credit I have to use soon.

Better off paying the extra $18 for the joy of playing it on a 360.

(I preordered it back in march when it was $55 and had a credit /brag)
 
I might bite...this way I can keep my CE sealed.

Prolly not, though. The older I get, the less I care about that kind of stuff.

:rofl: What joy is that? I demand you list out $18 worth of joy! :rofl:
 
Since it seems like many stores are going to open at midnight on black friday and I get of at 23:30 thanksgiving night I'm tempted to actually try to get in on the deals.
 
I'm pretty disappointed with the BF ads so far. I was really hoping for a 55"+ 3D LED. There are some non-3D deals that look decent, but that's not really what I want. Hopefully Amazon or Nebraska Furniture Mart have something along those lines, but, at least for the latter, it won't be until right around BF that anything is really known.
 
I figure that if I'm paying upwards of $1000, it's a little silly to not have 3D. I know that, even if I don't use it now, as more media uses the technology, I'm going to want it. It's pretty much a matter of futureproofing at this point. Like, if I'm not going for a super cheap, sub-$500 TV, why shouldn't I get 3D?

Like, as great a deal as a $200 42" LCD is, I just don't want that. I'm willing to spend more to get what I want. I just wish that what I wanted was on sale this BF, even if it was a minimal discount.
 
Because it's the future!

I got a call from some recruiter today looking to fill an engineering position with a local company. I'm a little shocked...maybe my luck is finally turning around.
 
Its the way of the future. The way of the future. The way of the future. The way of the future. The way of the future. The way of the future. The way of the future.

I will occasionally do that because for some reason it absolutely infuriates the missus and amuses me in the process.
 
Fuck you Uncharted 3, I want to love you like I loved 2, I love your platforming but your combat is so fucking clunky and unresponsive I feel like you're punishing me every time I shoot someone. After hundreds of hours of Arkham City I cannot accept hand to hand combat as weak as yours.
 
Still bouncing back between a projector (w/ 100" screen) or 60-70" tv for my basement.

Really can't decide. They both have a lot of pros and cons.

If it's specifically for gaming, I would go with a TV. 60"-70" is a big set... and you'll have a higher contrast ratio resulting in darker blacks. Now, there's some higher end projectors that deliver TV-like black levels, but they tend to be a bit pricey. Also want to take lamp life into consideration. If this is your main viewing room, and you leave it on for hours at a time, you'll likely be replacing the lamp at least once every two years.

I heard they are going to fix it, but it's pretty fucked up they would put out a game like that after the first two were so awesome.
 
Nice, a friend of mine got tickets for one of the shows in Florida.

On a less-famous note I'm seeing Mayday Parade today, that should be entertaining.

Same here. The H2H combat was buttery smooth in AC and now i cannot fathom it any way else.
 
So we're at about hour 7 of non stop childrens TV programming here. When people get up at 5 am I simply give up caring about any sort of interaction.
You watch TV, I try and lay down on the couch.

I doubt they're going to patch the single player game. If multiplayer plays like this as well I'm glad I haven't checked it out yet. Hoping to trudge through the rest of the campaign today and be done with it, but as of right now it's a hell of a disappointment compared to 2.

Do yourself a favor and leave on a high note - after You Me At Six.

Well, they're supposedly patching the dead spots in the aiming, I think; something that was heavily bitched about on GAF -- so much so they invited some GAF members to come give them feedback and help them fix the problem, supposedly?

If you're disappointed by 3 after 2, I'm glad I steered clear of the new one [target is
 
[quote name='Temporaryscars']I can't tell if you guys are talking about the new Uncharted game or the new COD game.[/QUOTE]

:rofl:

That's awesome.

It was Uncharted 3, if you care. :lol:
 
Finished Uncharted 3. I can't tell if my disappointment is because it's inferior to 2 of if I'm so used to Arkham's near perfect combat mechanics. It was a really good game and the set pieces are incredible but it kept getting bogged down by firefights that just aren't fun. Oh well, maybe I'll take another shot in a few months with a fresh perspective. Now back to Dead Space 2. Hopefully I can finish before Saints Row The Third on Monday night.

Yup. First time I saw one, I decided I would try and fight it. It was a mistake...

I got there right before You Me At Six got on and they were quite good. We Are The In Crowd was okay, I thought, I'm a sucker for female vocalists.
 
[quote name='Eviltude']I wanted to get Uncharted, but you guys talked me out of it. I'll be picking up the MGSHDC(PS3) as planned.[/QUOTE]

Metal gear in hd is fucking awesome. Also uncharted is only 30 on black Friday. Just pick it up then.

It makes me sad that I have this LE that I need to sell before I replace it with a regular copy. :| The screens I saw of MGS3 in the GAF thread were niiiiice.

Haven't touched 3 but sons of liberty looks great for a ten year old game.

Considering how bad MGS3 (non Subsistence or whatever) looked upscaled on my 60GB PS3 when I played it, this looks fucking awesome:

I played a bit of 3 when I picked up my copy. It's like the game was made to be released in 2010/2011, it looks damn fucking good. I'm hoping Peace Walker looks similarly amazing as it's already the best looking PSP title I own.

Hell, I think I'd even go so far as to say the HD versions of MGS are better looking than the HD Shadow of the Colossus.
 
The only thing about the collection that kind of sucks is the lack of TTS. I would love to see it included if they port the collection to the new Wii. That said, Nintendo would probably find some way to fuck it up by not making a standard controller to play regular games with (they did make the classic controller basically a standard controller so I do give them some credit for at least doing that, but it took 4 years and Monster Hunter).
