[quote name='XchikaXchikaX']very funny. i actually don't like ruffles. i do, however like Roofles ;) (despite the fact he's pawning is 360)[/QUOTE]

Aww :blush:

I'm getting way more than I thought for it =O It's just a shame I can't make the b2g1 free work for me... all 7 stores that the locator says has Super Paper Mario used don't have it. No biggie, I'll just buy it new. But it reminded me why I haven't been into an EB in almost two years.

I think i'll just pick up Wii Play (need a second wiimote more than anything) / Super Paper Mario when I do it, either today or tomorrow, with some Raiden 3 and Metal Slug Anthology.

SD's front page has a $250 sign up offer for the Chase Freedom card. I signed up for it the last time the offer was up there (maybe a month or two ago.) Worked without a problem - got my check a week or two ago.

It took a couple of stores to find SPM for me, as well as ExciteTruck & Wii Play.

If you're looking for a second Wiimote, Wii Play is good for that, as the games are worth $10, though not much more. Which is why I picked up a copy of it for sixers, sold him the game for $15 and kept the Wiimote.
 
Eh, what the fuck?

My Pokemon stylus from Amazon was delivered yesterday, but I just looked at the tracking info:

I just had a bowl of vegetable soup and a bagel, but I'm still hungry. :whistle2:k




I was going to say "Whoa, time warp." But I wasn't sure if I should spell it "whoa" or "woah". :lol:

And I've never seen RHPS.

One roofles is more than enough.

I will probably just end up buying all the games new =O I'll end up with SPM, Godfather, Wii Play, Raiden 3, Metal Slug Anthology, and probably Gurumin... I should have some left over so I'll get another Wii Points card.

I want to at least finish Twilight Princess (had it for 5 months) before I get anything else... I'm finishing the 4th dungeon now.

We had some fat-free chips yesterday and i know in the back of my mind there used to be a big deal about how they cause stomach cramps in some people, but i tend not to remember that when i go to eat them ( i like them better than regular chips - same taste but not greasy). So no to the alcohol-related issues. unfortunately my stupidness with the olestra lead to wretching stomach cramps that had me up since about 5am combined with lionhart being sick and tossing around all night keeping either of us from sleeping well.[/QUOTE]

Causes anal leakage as well IIRC. :whistle2:&

I'll probably see what I can find in the B2G1 for Wii and 360 games.

Shall we find you some Depends, just in case? :D
 
I'm still waiting for some more games before buying a Wii. Although if they were readily available in stores I may have grabbed one by now. Saw a few of them at Sears over the weekend, an employee was wheeling a hand cart with some PS2s, at least 2 Wiis, and some other consoles back somewhere (away from the video game section.) Not sure what the deal was with that.

No true surround sound sucks, but I can deal. Are most games widescreen and 480p at least or is that a rarity?

All Wii games are WS & 480p.

Most GC games are 480p, though aren't WS.

About half the PS2 games (at least the ones I own) are 480p, though most aren't WS. Some are.

Almost all Xbox games are at least 480p, a good hunk are 720p.

PS3 & 360 games, well, we all know about that.
 
Need food.. kinda dizzy... dont want to sit in back where the owner is working... but that's where my soup is... hopefully this Snickers bar will really satisfy me like the wrapper says...

Well, that's a rude surprise. :whistle2:s Thanks for the clarification.
 
I just now for the first time saw a Wii in stock at a store. Funny thing was that there were more wii's in the cabinet ready to be sold than PS3's.
 
Yay for losing 2 years worth of data because the numbnut who decided to backup all the data did it on some no name brand CD's that have a life expectancy of about 30 days before the data because unreadable. That'll teach these fucktards to spend only $0.02 per disc. Too bad now I have to reproduce all the work. Blah... there goes my next 2 years.
 
[quote name='Soodmeg']Morning bitches. I slept pretty damn good last night.

Now to face the day.........YAY OFFICE WORK AND EDITING!!!

I really hate editing.

Anyway...Work. Packing....then Gears.

By the way does anyone own one of the offical Xbox 360 back packs? I am looking into getting one for two reason.

1) As a freelancer its a given to have one, so you can carry your gear around is the safely and easly.

2) I seem to be always lugging my 360 around from my house to my girls house to my friends house....I have it in a regular school back pack and that shit is just not cutting it at all. The 360 is like 2x as big as the biggest pouch on it.

Thanks.[/QUOTE]

I just bought it while I was out. For 12 bucks it seemed like a good buy (it was 75 percent off at target).

also nabbed some mad catz cables for 75 percent off (an optical cable for 2.50 is a pretty good deal and 3.75 for an s-video cable cheap enough where I don't care that it is third party).

Yea we don't have a doorbell...

The house I live in and the ones around me. Where made for the GI's coming home from WWII. They're about 800sq ft, and were built very quickly. They were also cheap so the GI's could afford a home, and start a family.

With that said these homes are very shitty. We remodeled when I was 14. Its was a mess we spent more time fixing 50 year old mistakes then actual remodeling(we didn't have any installation in the walls). We never had a doorbell, now that I think about it we should proly add one.

It's not lookin like it. Definitely not on any other disks. We're checking through the other computers and the boss has a backup of files from all the computers from a few years ago at his house, but he's not sure if the last time he saved the stuff was before or after this data was created.

Time to fire his ass for crap like that, as well as only insisting on one copy of the data, if it was truly archival data.
 
I can't say I'm surprised my last post was deleted...but I'm not giving up, mostly because the song alone doesn't cross the same lines that video did. ;)
