Thats crazy. :whee: :whee: Is he a complete opposite of you?[/QUOTE]I have no idea. I don't know his name, age (older than my sister I know), or really anything. I just heard my Mom admit to my sister about it. My Dad never told us a thing and probably doesn't want us to ever know. If anything, the half brother may be more like my sister than me, because I get most of my traits from my Mom while my sister gets most from my Dad. I'll probably never meet the guy.
[quote name='lordwow']He is, he's a 360 fanboy![/QUOTE]:rofl: I'd be shocked if he played games. Out of anyone related to me, I'm like the only one who really plays video games.
 
I told you, The Mana Knight: I know a black kid from high school, with your full name, who is one of the biggest, most awkward nerds I've ever met.

He looks exactly like Bowfinger, which was his nickname in high school. That, and "Essence of Onion", because his B.O. always reeked like French Onion Soup.

Is it just me, or does my avatar sort of look like Kevin Pereira?
 
[quote name='Brak']I told you, The Mana Knight: I know a black kid from high school, with your full name, who is one of the biggest, most awkward nerds I've ever met.[/QUOTE]In real life, no one looks as me as a nerd/awkward since I tend to hide that stuff (I just try to be normal like everyone else). I doubt he's the same guy my Dad is talking about. I am really curious as to what his name is and whether he has a family or not right now.

I use to enjoy playing that with one of my best friends, making a team of all fat or skinny guys. :p Only one relative I meant on my Dad's side had an NES, but that was it. I had to show my 2nd cousins how to play a video game. :cool:
 
The TRU B2G1 free sale is good for DS games , since they tend to hold value better. For any other games , your essentially just getting 3 games for $40 each (if they're new games)
 
[quote name='lordwow']B2G1?

Meh if you ask me.[/quote]

Pretty much...

Especially if GS does another 25% off coupon next week...
 
[quote name='senorwoohoo']Anyone know how much I could get if I sold NGII and GTAIV either on here or to GS?[/quote]Not so much.

I'd say around 35 for both? I know NGII tanked in value shortly after it was released and most places have too many copies of GTAIV.

And some viagra to help him get it up.:lol:

Ah, nuts.
 
I used to jump on TRU B2G1, but that was at the end of the last cycle. Nabbed a ton of XBox 1 games for dirt. I ended up flipping them onto Goozex a year later for a big profit.
 
[quote name='Number83']Need one more for my B2G1, please.

RB2, Dead Space, and ...???[/QUOTE]

Just find something, keep it sealed, and return it/exchange for something you really want. Like Fable or Gears or Fallout or something.
 
[quote name='tiredfornow'] Oh, and a Happy Birthday to you! May your pill popping, drink chugging dreams come true.[/quote]

Well I'm all set on the first one for today. :bouncy:

[quote name='Number83']Don't send it...I'm serious...I dropped the ball so enjoy. I put it in the mail this morning.[/quote]

Are you sure? I feel guilty.

[quote name='The Mana Knight']No problem Mak. ;)

Most probably already saw it in my blog, but I was very surprised to hear yesterday that I have a half brother. :shock: My Dad just never wanted to tell my sister and I this (it was before my parents got married).[/quote]

Is he that guy in the CAG Photo Album? He looks a lot like you.

[quote name='TheRock88']happy bday mak![/quote]

Thanks all. And I agree with Linkin's idea (after 5pm).
 
[quote name='JolietJake']I jumped on the TRU sale last year, this time i just don't care to bother.[/QUOTE]Same. Last year during the sale (I jumped on the 2nd one) I bought Heavenly Sword, Blue Dragon, and PGR4. I wanted Folklore, DiRT, and Eternal Sonata badly at the time, but TRU did not carry them. I'll be perfectly honest that I regret participating in the sale, because PGR4 (the game I liked most) dropped really fast. I just couldn't get into Blue Dragon or Heavenly Sword (I eventually sold that to GS). However, the year before that and another year, I made out VERY well during the sale. There's stuff I want later this week, but only 1 is in my top 10, so I'm not going to bother. While I was working, it was no problem. Right now I gotta be more careful how I spend.

My two favorites overall are when I got:
Shin Megami Tensei Nocturne (w/ CD), Shadow Hearts: Covenant, and Neo Contra for free
Castlevania: LoI, DDR Max 2, and Jak II for free.
 
[quote name='senorwoohoo']Anyone know how much I could get if I sold NGII and GTAIV either on here or to GS?[/QUOTE]

I'm trying to sell my GTA IV right now and am asking $30.
 
[quote name='munch']I'm trying to sell my GTA IV right now and am asking $30.[/quote]

Good luck with that...the SE Bundle is currently at $20 at Target...and eBay is flooded with them.
 
[quote name='JolietJake']I jumped on the TRU sale last year, this time i just don't care to bother.[/quote]


Last year I was Super-Excited for the sale. I bought Halo 3, Bioshock and Orange Box the day before I found my Holiday 360. But other deals last year soured me on it...

The day of/day after I picked up my 360, that magic 5 for $25 Blockbuster coupon hit. I picked up Stanglehold, Gears, Lost Planet, Bioshock, and something else w/ it.

Then the Friday of the B2G1 sale, GS gave a B1G1 50% off coupon. I played through Stranglehold's SP that weekend, then flipped it and the Forza2 from the bundle for ~$45 with a trade-in promo. I then picked up Orange Box and Halo3 for under $40 out of pocket.
 
Confirmed!!

Does it qualify as a man jaw if she's still a man? :whistle2:k

Happy birthday, old man.
 
[quote name='tiredfornow']Lets play Halo tonight, moneything![/quote]


:rofl:


I sold that POS pretty quick after I realized the MP wasn't for me...


[quote name='prmononoke']That Blockbuster coupon was awesome. So awesome that they asked me to return the games.[/quote]



Ha, I still haven't gone back to the BB I used the coupon at...


It was so :cool: seeing SAVINGS=$180 or whatever ridiculous amount it was...
 
[quote name='joe2187']Frisky...how's dead space?

Picking mine up today.[/quote]
Don't know since I'm not interested in playing it. I got it from EA when I did the interview with the Dead Space producer.
 
If you start downloading it right now, you can have it done by tonight! I think my disc is kinda fucked up since it came off of the little thing that holds it in place and was bouncing around the case the entire way from Newegg. :bomb:

EDIT: Whats the vidmaster achievement, LinkinBestFriend?
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']Don't know since I'm not interested in playing it. I got it from EA when I did the interview with the Dead Space producer.[/quote]

How much free shit do you have that you don't care for?
 
[quote name='prmononoke']That Blockbuster coupon was awesome. So awesome that they asked me to return the games.[/quote]
Why did they do that?

Anyway, that B2G2 sale just isn't that great to me, if all games are $60, they end up being $40 apiece. Not bad, but still not that great. Especially if one of them drops like a rock a few weeks later.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']Don't know since I'm not interested in playing it. I got it from EA when I did the interview with the Dead Space producer.[/quote]

I'm interested in your copy...

I'll give ya 20 bucks...
 
The way I see it...I'm going to buy Midnight Club 3 and Fable II for sure...so why not get a "free" game along with it...problem is, I don't know what else I want...either Saints Row 2 or Fallout 3...leaning towards Fallout 3.
 
[quote name='FriskyTanuki']Don't know since I'm not interested in playing it. I got it from EA when I did the interview with the Dead Space producer.[/quote]
Have i ever told you how :cool: you are?

:D
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']How much free shit do you have that you don't care for?[/quote]
This is probably the first in a long time, though I didn't even ask for it, but was offered it. I need to sell it since I have some stuff I need to pay for.

And I'm not selling it for $20.
 
[quote name='manthing']Ha, I still haven't gone back to the BB I used the coupon at...


It was so :cool: seeing SAVINGS=$180 or whatever ridiculous amount it was...[/quote]

I used the coupon at two different stores, and attempted to use it at a third, but by that time, the coupon was dead. This was all within the same hour. I'm pretty sure I've been to both stores once since that coupon.

Getting roughly $500 worth of games for about $50 was awesome. If I recall correctly, I got Bioshock x3, Bullet Witch, Hitman: Blood Money, Guitar Hero Encore: Rocks the 80s, Twilight Princess, and...I can't remember what else. Of course, it was three other games, and I'm sure they were also worth something.

[quote name='JolietJake']Why did they do that?[/quote]

Because the coupon wasn't intended for games, and it was only released to a certain market (in Kansas, I believe). Copies scanned, though, for all non-franchise locations.
