I have a Hori EX2 if anyone is interested.

Best Buy has A LOT of good DVD's on sale but realistically I can get any of them for around their current prices $3.99/4.99 at half.com year round and I can use paypal with half.

Brother is home from college and he's stuck on Geometry Wars, we're probably going to get Castle Crashers tonight.
 
[quote name='Rei no Otaku']They really don't. There's more powerful ones no doubt, but when it comes to pure awesome almost nothing beats the Nu Gundam.[/quote]
It's the simplicity that makes it awesome. It looks like an upgraded RX-78.
 
[quote name='hankmecrankme']I'm loving SSF2T HD Remix 360. Gotta use the analog stick though. And I actually like the PS3's pad for fighters. Call me crazy, or maybe my thumb is just used to it since I've been using it since PS1 launch day.

I can do Guile's super on the analog stick, at least. Both commands. :cool:

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, everyone. :)[/QUOTE]

I'm with you on this one, the Dual Shock d-pad is just sublime (as far as controllers go) for fighting games. The only pad I've ever owned that was superior is those Anniversary Guile Xbox controllers, and those won't work with the 360!! Anybody know of an Xbox --> USB adapter that will work?

And happy Turkey Day, folks! I hope I get back in town in time to score at GS!! ;)
 
It DID hurt my thumb, back when I got Tekken for PS1 and played that shit all the time. Now it never hurts.

ProTip : Use the base of your thumb and not the tip. Just set it on the PS Dpad and go to town.
 
It hurts when I play SSF2THDR too. But its not my thumb that hurts, its my ass. Cause I suck at the game hard. Last time I played this on console was back on the SNES and I was king. Now, I am the king's whore getting slapped around and ass raped. So sad. So very very sad.

Oh well, at least I have Valkyria Chronicles. The more I play of this game, the more I'm loving it. Just hit chapter 8 now. Online vs battles would be so awesome for this game tho.

And happy Turkey Day GGT. Gobble gobble.
 
I guess I might as well eBay my two Guile controllers along with SF: AC for the OG 'Box. It'll probably net me enough to get SFIITHDR plus one of those fancy SFIV pads that come out in February.
 
I'm starting to think I should just go crazy with the Rightstuf sale. It seems the deals on PSP/DS games are slim... The most interesting one for me is Spiderman 3(DS) for $9.
 
[quote name='Chacrana']If you don'tbuy it, you're an idiot. So, as long as you do eventually, that's coo.[/quote]Good to know.

[quote name='zewone']Beef, I've been looking for that Lucario comic (from your sig) for a minute. I'm not sure what to Google. Help a brotha out.[/quote]

Lucario's a jerk to Pikachu, but I'd totally do the same thing.
 
I want SF2, but I'm in no rush to get it. Honestly, I was always a SNK guy so I was into Fatal Fury and KoF while everyone else was into SF. It's not that I don't like SF, but I was never a fan of the characters. Not to mention I already own so many different versions of that game.
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']Can't use Live without a harddrive, right? Or am I making that up?[/QUOTE]

I think you're right, but I'm not sure why you'd need hundred of MB of storage space just to go online. Pretty sure you can't do Xbox 1 BC either, but I know he doesn't care about that. From the way everyone was bitching about the "tard pack," there doesn't seem to be any limitations beyond that.
 
I just took a look at the full list of Amazon's BF deals on games and it looks like I won't be picking any games up this BF. I thought about getting Last Remnant. But with Persona 4 coming out in a few weeks and all the reviews for the game I think I'll hold off and see if the PS3 version does any better.
 
Snagged Dead Space PS3--$29.95 is live on Amazon! Will try to grab AC:CF bundle, Boom Blox, and GoW PSP later tonight. And then that should be it for me this BF. :p
 
[quote name='suko_32']Amazingly there's really only 2 things I want on the Amazon thing and I don't really want them that badly. Strange.[/quote]
Pretty much the same here. I was actually hoping for more deals on DS/PSP games. But the selection for those were pretty lackluster, imo.

One of them being the PS3 Amazon Votes bundle?
 
[quote name='gunm']One of them being the PS3 Amazon Votes bundle?[/QUOTE]

I'm not counting that one. I'm not even hopeful that I'll manage to get one :whistle2:(

Plus I already have a PS3 anyway. If I do get it, it'll probably be selling it to my sister or friend at cost since they were looking for a cheap PS3.

The two were a Dualshock 2 controller and Infinite Undiscovery.
 
Kinda want L4D for $20, but since I somehow completely missed all news of a demo when it was available, I have no idea if it'll run on this laptop :whistle2:#
 
System requirements lie. My hardware was good enough on paper, but Deus Ex was completely unplayable when I tried it, 2 laptops ago. And laptop graphics cards aren't known to be the most compatible.
 
I really want to get Pure for $30.. but I just bought GRID. And I'm still enjoying the heck out of Sega Rally Revo.

Pulling a powerslide on a gravel corner and then sliding onto the last stretch on tarmac is so sexy. I love Sega Rally Revo!

Otherwise I'm going out tomorrow cause my girlfriend wants some kohl's stuff and I'm gonna try to get Civ Rev DS at gamestop.
 
I'm probably going to snag the Animal Crossing bundle on amazon for $40. That's awesome. Other than that, I'll probably snatch up Ninjatown for $15 from best buy and probably Rune Factory 2 for $15 from Amazon. Thinking about nabbing Left 4 Dead for $20 from amazon as well.
 
The demo for Dead Space is ridiculously short. I loved what little atmosphere there was to see. It felt like Alien with more monsters/guns. Although I didn't enjoy trying to fight off 3 monsters at the same time. It worked in RE:4 because Leon is all nimble and stuff. I felt like I was taking a bunch of unavoidable hits.

I think I'll try the demo out tonight while I still have access to a badass projector.

EDIT: After playing it, I can say it's beautiful, but the gameplay really doesn't do it for me.

I hope L4D doesn't sell out fast. I need to go to the bank in the morning to deposit so I can buy that and maybe bioshock for pc or transformers (bluray).
 
Happy Thanksgiving GGT.

Pretty boring day with the fam.

Now I'm watching Friday Night Lights Season 1 on Hulu.

Such a great show, I can't believe I never watched it before.
 
Happy Thanksgiving GGT (even though I don't celebrate it).

Spent all day cleaning, that way I can spend the next 3 days gaming.

Just finished FEAR, managed to get the cheesemint for not dying, gonna start Force Unleashed tomorrow.

Picked up BIA:HH from NewEgg, wish I waited for Amazon. I think I'll give Too Human a shot for $20.
 
I finally have my 360 to play! I'm downloading Street Fighter right now but it's taking forever, I hope my connection here doesn't suck and ruin online play. I'm down to play some matches with anyone once I find a 48 hour trial code to use.
 
[quote name='Mr. Beef']How much are you paying for it? Less than 25$ is ideal, I hear.[/QUOTE]

well i was ether going to buy that or Fallout 3 from amazon for $40
