[quote name='gunm']I'd like the Ace Combat sticks myself. I'd want it even more if I find it works with the upcoming Sturmovik port.[/quote]
There is no way I'm paying a premium for them. But if I can find them cheap on Craigslist or supposedly Gamestop carries them used but there is no store locator online for it and they are probably nearly impossible to find.

My eyes are peeled though. :shock:

Anyone else listen to this week's 1UP FM podcast? What is the name of that chick? I think she is on the 1UP Show sometimes too.
 
Woo, I got Premium Edition Soul Calibur 4 on PS3, and regular edition on 360.

I sold the PS3 version for $120 on amazon to pay for the other lol

GEOMETRY WARS OMGLOL I beat ZEWONE!

I might send some friend requests to get some more friend leaderboard competition going. I'm ranked like #240 in the world on King mode right now..
 
Why is the premium edition going for $120? I like how amazon.com has 1UP's review right above the price of SC4 360 Premium Edition.

edit: This shit is already out of print? fuck, my backlog is too big to drop $80 on SC4.

And earlier in the week, my friends and I dominated at Hooters trivia challenge and won some nifty shirts... More details at http://sdtekken.com ! :p

Read full pickup post here.
 
GS/EB sells the Ace Combat sticks for $40. Gotta call up some Gamestops tomorrow. Can they locate items from other stores if you tell them what you want?

Ended up watching the Cubs game and not playing anything tonight. :(

[quote name='Rei no Otaku']Managers can do store look-ups. It's the same accuracy as just using the site though.[/quote]
The site doesn't list the sticks for obvious reasons, there were only 10,000 sticks produced. But there is definitely a SKU for them so hopefully he can find the SKU and check with that. Any GS/EB employees here?
 
Rei works there. Does GS even take these sticks in trade?

I personally haven't seen them, new or used, at any of the GSes I've been to, and that includes the ones I stopped by in LA, So. Cal, and LV.
 
[quote name='Chacrana']dude, MM, you look intimidating as fuck. I'm pretty strong, but you look like you could headbutt me and I'd explode.

YOU WA SHOCK[/quote]

It is the eyebrows and stache. I could take 'em. :D

thanks for the grats all! unfortunately the job is in my town...

so if I put another year or two into it... that another 1 or 2 years without prospective girlfriends or good dance studios to hang out at :cry:

I hate where I live... I jus drove an hour to get dinner coz there's no place to eat here...

[quote name='The Mana Knight']That's awesome to hear. I still haven't heard back from the company I sent out a resume to. I need to put together some cover letters and revised resumes, to send out for my next batch. I'm kind of in a difficult situation TBH.[/QUOTE]


I really hope you put as much effort into a cover letter as you put into your blogs.

or what you can do is make a very generic cover letter, and go on monster or careerbuilder or whatever and send it to like 50 companies at a time... coz u can put your heart and soul into writing a cover letter only to hear nothing...

save the good effort for the companies that are worth it... but for everyone else play the numbers game.

[quote name='refusedchaos']MAN I WANT SC4!!!!! sux being low on funds[/QUOTE]

I'm pretty sure we don't take sticks used. We definitely get them new (rare though. All I remember is the Tekken 5 stick, the DoA4 stick, and the VF5 stick). Good luck finding one.

hmm idk, i want the PE one for the school uniforms:D
 
[quote name='refusedchaos']MAN I WANT SC4!!!!! sux being low on funds[/QUOTE]

Same here, otherwise I probably would have had it by now.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']... man online people suck at SCIV... it's not at all like Tekken DR online where people at least learn some moves.[/quote]
So maybe I stand a chance at win a few matches then. :lol:

sheeyit SC4 sux... I'll prolly sell u mine if I feel like it a week from now.[/QUOTE]Actually JEKKI, I'm trying hard to stay within my hometown for a job, but there's next to no jobs there. :whistle2:( I use to want to live in Indy (just over an hour away from me), but now I don't because my sister is living there now, and my Dad wants to try to get us to live together (no joke). So that's why if I go anywhere, I'm leaning towards Cincinnati, OH, Louisville, KY, or somewhere around Illinois.

I usually put a lot of effort into whatever I write. My usual problem is when I have a limit of how much I can write.

[quote name='Azumangaman']OH HOT DAMN!
I think I just realized its not working because my connection is NAT3...maybe?
I guess it changed when we got the new router....[/QUOTE]Yeah, that's probably the problem. IMO, it's easiest to set your PS3 up with a static IP (if you get the information) and changed some settings on the PS3 local IP.

Look at me I'm TMK[/QUOTE]By changing your sig/avatar? :lol:
 
It seems the 1st DLC for SCIV DLC is out. I picked up the customization pack. But I think I'll skip the Music pack, 1200 MS points is a bit pricey for me
 
[quote name='Chibi_Kaji']It seems the 1st DLC for SCIV DLC is out. I picked up the customization pack. But I think I'll skip the Music pack, 1200 MS points is a bit pricey for me[/QUOTE]Sounds like Namco. They charged for a music pack on Ridge Racer 7.
 
I don't mind the fact they are charging for it. It just shouldn't be 20$. 15$ is the most I would pay for that stuff and even that would still be a little expensive.
 
[quote name='nyprimus4']Didn't their Ace Combat DLC all combined together total to something like $120-130 and almost 10,000 MS Points?[/quote]


don't even get started on Idolmaster.
 
I'm in talks for a sealed Ace Combat 6 + Flightstick bundle. Probably going to cost me GTA IV, Motorstorm, Ratchet, and a few Blu-rays. Paid $60 for GTA, $3 for Motorstorm, nothing for Ratchet, and all my Blus were cheap.

I probably won't even open it... I just want it. moo hoo ha ha ha

>_< if anything, ebay it.
 
[quote name='MarkMan']I can't wait for all the Tekken 6 DLC ;)[/quote]

even hearing all the crazy namco pricing has on DLC, Tekken 6 having any DLC will whore me out no matter the price >_
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']don't even get started on Idolmaster.[/quote]

What, the fuckton of DLC part or the "their splitting it up into three different games for the PSP" part? ;)
 
[quote name='EXStrike']What, the fuckton of DLC part or the "their splitting it up into three different games for the PSP" part? ;)[/quote]


yeah, well I own all versions so um...

I will say it will be worth my money since I put more time into Tekken games than most other titles. I still play Tekken Tag more than some of my newer games.
 
[quote name='Chibi_Kaji']Meh, getting into online matches in SCIV is a pain.

Also, wtf is Idolmaster anyway....[/quote]


online is only good when playing in a lobby... ranked games suck due to getting kicked out at the end of every fight.

idolmaster is something I've always wanted to come stateside >_<

I don't even like american idol crap, jpop, or life sim stuff... I just like the strange concept.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']even hearing all the crazy namco pricing has on DLC, Tekken 6 having any DLC will whore me out no matter the price >_
 
I'd probably buy all the SC4 DLC. I'm not into Tekken enough to know that I'd buy all that shit, but if I do get hooked, yeah, I'd probably blow too much cash on useless shit.
 
Oddly enough I not interested in SCIV DLC...unless it's new character. >_<

T6 DLC...I dunno, will it make me play better/a better player? :p
 
Who all is playing Geo Wars 2? I want some GGT High score Trash Talk going on!!
