My dad loves the saw movies , which makes me really sad (first one was good though). I still believe that a saw game that plays like one of the Tecmo Deception games might actually be pretty fun/cool. Better to set the crazy traps than to escape from them.
 
Dude, the Uncharted 2 event (at Muvico) was friggen amazing. They had awesome food and we got to see four different single player gameplay (un-friggen-believable). And there was a tournament (10 game console infront of the big screen and it was viewable on the movie theater screen). I was team captain and my team came in 3rd (out of about 12 teams)- so we won a signed UNCHARTED 2 poster (signed by everyone that worked on it). We would have won first, but I lost the coin toss which made us have to play two times at the end.

But the BEST part - I got a copy of Uncharted 2! For free! Woohoo. This game is insane. The footage looked ridiculous. Best game of all time I say.
 
What I gots from the event:

Got the poster for getting 3rd in the tournie
U2002.jpg

And of course UNCHARTED 2 (nobody is online though...):
U2006.jpg

All in all, an awesome haul. Was not expecting to get ANYTHING.
 
Sorry blurry - my camera sucks. Side and game disc:

Side note: That isn't my keyboard... that is just there to access my bios. I don't use that crap!
 
Hey Mak, saw your message on Live, you watched that Rifftrax DVD yet?

I picked up the Shorts Vol 2, that short with the monkey-kids on their bikes was hilarious, maybe the funniest short I've seen yet.
 
That was absolutely disturbing. Was the one with the kids playing w/ the k'nex and talking about drugs on that one too? "Huh? What?!"

And no I haven't seen the Night of the Living Dead one yet. Probably wont get it till today or tomorrow.

Yeah I think that was on one of the other shorts.
 
[quote name='pete5883']Why? So I have to spend $60 on a game I already own, for $10-20 worth of new content? Instead of spending points I bought for half price? No thanks.

Oh, and DarkNessBear, thanks for volunteering to send me that poster.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='benjamouth']"You need to be logged in to vote in this poll."

fuck that noise, why you want a physical copy Zew, is it easier to "acquire" than a digital copy ?:whistle2:#

EDIT - Sweet, http://kotaku.com/5374647/konami-revisits-rocket-knight-adventures-for-xbla-psn[/QUOTE]

Yeah. So I can get it for free.
 
Wow. The DJ Hero tracklist looks like a lot of fun. I really want it now.

Since the ECA stacking is being fixed I've made my last two orders.

Borderlands/Liberty City Stories/Sands of Destruction

and

GoW3/FFXIII/FFXIII VS/Last Guardian/Resonance of Fate/Last Rebellion
 
A big rant post is coming....

So I went to GameStop after work today looking forward to picking up my Demon Souls Deluxe Edition. I got the text message from GameStop it would be available at my store. Well, I got there and come to find out, they only got one copy in but two preorders, so I ended up getting fucked in the ass right there. They called around to various GameStop stores (keep in mind there are a ton near me) and NONE of them had it. They said they'd call me after they checked more GameStop locations. I don't know who I should be pissed at and boycott right now, ATLUS or GameStop.

So right now I'm really fucking pissed and dunno what I should do:
-Go with regular edition and forget about this.
-Move my Demon Souls Deluxe preorder to something else like Tekken 6.
-Put the money of my Demon Souls preorder on a game I already had preordered.
-Should I just say fuck GameStop and cancel my other two preorders along with Demon Souls?

To make my day worse, I also checked about Way of the Samurai 3. It was in their system, but preorders could not be taken on it. So I might have to try Amazon or local import game store (that carries U.S. games too, a lot of niche stuff). I'm seriously tempted to forget about the Deluxe edition of Demon Souls at GameStop and looking elsewhere (like another local store that tends to stock a lot of niche games).
 
I really want DJ Hero Renegade, but I can't bring myself to pay for it, even with ECA. :p

You can still get Demon's Souls Deluxe from Amazon (don't forget your ECA). IIRC Atlus has a better distribution relationship with Amazon than GS.

I wish I had these kind of bad days.
 
GS lost one my pre-orders in the same way which is why I no longer do 'real' preorders at GS now.

Buy the deluxe from Amazon. Speaking of, mine was just delivered. :)

I won't be using ECA since I don't have it.
[quote name='zewone']Amazon, dumbass.[/QUOTE]There's a small reason why I don't do online shopping. A lot of it is due to safety reasons and don't want to use my CC (only my debit). Once I get a new CC setup I may order online more, but right now its not that easy.
 
Use GIMAG to sign up for free. They don't have 10% codes at the moment, but they should soon.


CC's are generally safe, and it's a good idea to build a good credit rating for things like home purchases.
 
Worried about CCs online?

Then use the paypal plugin, virtual onetime use CC.
I use it for almost everything online. Including eca/amazon.

And that reason is you're a scared little girl.
 
[quote name='whoknows']Just beat Sigma 2. It was fantastic.

Now back to team missions :D[/QUOTE]

They didn't change any of the regular chapter missions, did they? Like when they added in Rachel BS to Sigma?

--

:rofl: @ all the other bidness up ins.
 
Ayane, Momiji and Rachel each have their own chapter. They also threw in some bosses, not sure which ones though since I unfortunately never got much time with NG2 on 360.


-TMK, you don't want Demon's Souls. It's super hard.

The 5th option is to stop being a whiny bitch, but it's clear that'll never happen

-TMK, you don't want Demon's Souls. It's super hard.[/QUOTE]I don't care if its hard. Knowing me I'll play for 6 hours and probably never touch it again, but I'd love to add it to my collection regardless. :D

[quote name='manthing']And that reason is you're a scared little girl.[/QUOTE]No, it's because I'm pessimistic after hearing how many people had un-authorized use of their CCs after reading blog entries here and other places. I'm just a bit too careful on stuff.

I took the risk and ordered at Amazon. We'll see what happens now.

I really should play some more of that... I've got 2 days off of work so I'll probably spend my time playing that and Demon's Souls. I think after getting Uncharted 2 I'm going to take a break from buying games for a while. I get extremely annoyed every time I take a look at my backlog and see a bunch of games I barely played.

I won't be having days off (which aren't a Holiday) until the beginning of next year. :whistle2:( Oh well, I don't mind since I sometimes will work 19 or more days in a row.
 
I really don't see how people classify Demon's Soul as omg amazingly hard. It'll probably get hard yes but most complaints are from 1-1 which is very easy if you pay attention and play defensively. I just beat the first boss and haven't died yet once. I know I'm gonna die soon enough from what I hear but 1-1 wasn't as hard as most people are making it out to be..

I played some GH5 also today which arrived which DS (thank you amazon for the cheap copy). Definitely an improvement over GHWT. Enjoying it but not as much as I did with RB2. Maybe I'm just losing the appeal of them.

TMK what's your psn name? You're the only one I don't have added here lol. if it's the same I added you a few days ago but haven't gotten a response yet.
