GGT 136 is ready for the 3rd Strike!

[quote name='whoknows']Also BB has the worst pre-order system ever. I went to get Deus Ex and told the person at Customer Service I had it pre-ordered and she told me to go get it off the shelf.

Amazing.[/QUOTE]

That's why I never pre-order from BB.

Well... I *am* Batman. :lol:

Damn, some of these alt/replacement covers on GAF are amazing. My meager contributions don't hold a candle to what some of these guys pull off. I'm going to have to take a usb drive to staples/office depot some day and try to get some nice prints of these and use 'em.
 
The employees in the videogame section of my local BB have made me hate the store.

Protip - I know more about games than any of you, leave me the fuck alone. If I tell you once that I don't want any help, don't assume that me still browsing 10 minutes later means that I now need help. It means that your shit is disorganized as all hell and I'm trying to find something on clearance.

I'm very, very close to switching entirely to Kmart and maybe Amazon for new games. In fact, once I start up my Kmart coupon train with the upcoming HD collections (Splinter Cell/God of War PSP games), I can't see myself bothering with BB until they do another round of clearance stuff.
 
[quote name='CaptainJoel']Man, I know I'm probably the only one, but I'm not really feeling SSF4 on the 3DS. It just isn't as fun as the console version.[/QUOTE]

Shoulda listened to me. I said don't buy it.

[quote name='Rei no Otaku']I actually liked defending the little sisters. It really made you use all the tools at your disposal. I loved sitting back and watching splicers run into my all my traps while getting gunned down by my turrets. I rarely had to do anything myself.[/QUOTE]

I loved the little sister sections as well. They were one of my favorite parts of the game. I never got tired of it either. And thinking back on the game as a whole, Bioshock 2 is one of my favorite FPS ever. I may not have been wowed as much as I was with Bioshock 1, but I still liked it better than most other FPS I've played.
 
[quote name='icebeast']Good thing there was one on the shelf, or at least I'm assuming, since we haven't heard reports of a Godzilla attack on an American Best Buy.[/QUOTE]

Yep, there were 2 of the Augmented editions.

Gotta say, I would have raged if there weren't any.
 
Yeah, just heard about that from Facebook since I have a lot of friends still in the DC area. Apparently a 5.8 one centered in central Va and felt thorugh out VA, NC, DC, WV etc.

I've only experienced one once when I was in the LA area on a business trip a couple years ago. It was a 5.x one as well. Shook the hotel I was in at the time pretty good, but not bad enough to cause any real damage. Just rattled the light fixtures etc. for 30 seconds or so.
 
Crap, my house-house is in SW Virginia. If all my shit, pets, fiancee is broken, I'm going to be heated. I should probably call.
 
I haven't heard any reports of damage or anything. Just stuff falling off shelves some places etc. 5.8 isn't that serious usually.
 
[quote name='ihadFG']Shoulda listened to me. I said don't buy it. [/QUOTE]
I don't rememberrrrr. It's not a huge loss, though. When I get done playing it some more I'll just trade it to GameStop. I only paid 18 and I'll get about $20 for it after bonuses.
 
[quote name='Halo05']Crap, my house-house is in SW Virginia. If all my shit, pets, fiancee is broken, I'm going to be heated. I should probably call.[/QUOTE]

It was in Charlottesville, or something like that, I suppose. 5.8 magnitude. Probably worth calling.

I'm still tweaking off the adrenaline rush and I seem to have picked up some vertigo too. fuck.

[quote name='suko_32']You are probably in the majority.[/QUOTE]

Amen.

[quote name='j-cart']One simple way of getting better, become a better blocker. Or in 3s's case parry more.[/QUOTE]

Only parry if you can follow it up properly!

[quote name='corrosivefrost']I'm okay at blocking. One thing Uraizen yells at me for not hit-confirming before I try combo strings. I usually leave myself open to punish.[/QUOTE]

Damned straight.

[quote name='corrosivefrost']Oh nice -- MK Arkade Kollection releases next week.
Dude, it's only $10 too. Sold.[/QUOTE]

Any online play?

[quote name='corrosivefrost']Holy fucking earthquake. My house almost fell down just now.

The east coast is not ready for 3SOE.[/QUOTE]

BOOM!
 
The building at work in Manhattan shook a couple times (basically you could feel the floor move a bit), but that was it.

[/QUOTE]

I'm pretty sure it's got at least the online play that was in UMK3 on XBLA and MKII on PSN... not sure if it's anything more than 1v1 match making though.

Developed by Other Ocean in conjunction with NetherRealm studios, the Mortal Kombat Arcade Kollection will offer fans the chance to play through the games in their original arcade state and rediscover all their favorite characters, fatalities and environments as well as relive some of the franchise's most memorable secrets. In addition, this new collection will feature online play, leaderboards, achievements and trophies.

So that wasn't you on the east coast?

About to go pick up my Deus Ex. Still looking for a
gameshare
on 3s.

[quote name='icebeast']Oh, is your fiancée in town... or...:shame:?[/QUOTE]
Neither, just something I was thinking about. I haven't really heard a great sex song in a while and I think I only have about 5 on my ipod that are even from the last decade.

---------
I'll be picking up the MK Kollection day one.
 
The shelves started rocking back and forth in the Target I was in...I figured it was god telling me to not buy EA MMA...even if it was 4.99.

(Also, I was amused to find a PS3 MvC3 Special Edition on clearance for 35)
 
Yike, shallow earthquake--must've been quite a good shaking going on.

I really need to secure my bookshelf--we don't get too many earthquakes, but living on the ring of fire means it's not an if but more of a when.

I also curse Two Worlds II for being so addicting. It's making me go to bed later than I really want to.

Doesn't look like Amazon is going to ship Deus Ex to me today. Sigh.

I actually found a TON (two shelves full) of those this past weekend at Wal-Mart. It was weird seeing so many in the wild this far past release date, especially in a city Wal-mart that sees a ton of traffic.
 
[quote name='distgfx']Third Strike is up.[/QUOTE]

Need to download the new Resistance 3 trailer first.


Also
should I buy 3s?

I thought you were this whole time.

This officially kills my 3s hype.

:lol:

I'm actually
downloading it now. Just couldn't decide 360 or PS3 at first
 
I'm only getting it on the
PS3
for the sake of the
GGT.

I will definitely get it on the
other console
eventually.
 
I'm getting it on PS3 since my TE is for the PS3, and I haven't looked into dual modding (and Uraizen told me PS3 sticks are more expensive to dual mod because you need to gut a legit 360 controller).
 
Hey there everyone, I was a member of this site for a couple of months and enjoyed my time here, viewing the deals on video games and chatting it up about video games with some lads here. I started using GGT one night, was getting along with everyone, and BOOM! I was banned for "no reason". I created numerous accounts after this one was banned for no reason, trying to find out why I got banned in the first place (I'm just starting think a mod/admin didn't like me and just wanted me gone...pretty shitty on their part) and I never got a answer. I really do miss this site alot, but if I at least don't get a answer for my reason of ban in the first place, I'm just going to say fuck it and move over to neoGAF (seriously don't want to). That is all and I hope a admin/mod reads this and lets me back on (though I seriously, seriously, seriously doubt it)

-Cheddahz

P.S And yes, I have tried to contact them via a email, and I never got a response from anyone, once again pretty weak on their part

P.S.S See you guys on 3rd Strike tomorrow B)
 
[quote name='Jimbo Slice']Y'all should get it on 360 so you can get bodied by me.[/QUOTE]

I would, but no Gold.


Still waiting on a good deal for it.
 
[quote name='Tony Hawk']Hey there CAGers[/QUOTE]

That makes no sense.

Who were you again?

You're lucky I have 1200 points sitting around from Bing rewards that I reserved to support this game. Capcom did something right? fuck yes, I'll buy it twice.
