By where are you located by? I'm interested in 3d dot hero and eye of judgment (is it a complete set?)
 
Hey guys, long time no see.

This year my wife wants a Gamecube for christmas and she wants me to get her Warioware Microgame Party, Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros Melee. (These were games that we used to play together on the cube back in the day)

Anyone have any of these for sale? I would hate to have to resort to Ebay.

I can help with the GC, I have a black one. I have a copy of Mario Kart DD, but it's disc only.
 
Responded via PM to those posting concerning the games for sale. Also updated post with xbox 360 and Wii titles.

Anybody here going to the Final Fantasy 25th anniversary (Distant Worlds) concert this coming Friday? I'm actually selling some spare, entry-level tickets :) Price is $40. That's almost $20 cheaper than the Ticketmaster prices. PM if interested :D
 
Blackout the last PM I got from you was on Sunday. I checked my inbox, and it isn't full. So I'm not sure if you were talking about the one from yesterday or if you sent another.

Listing is up to date with any holds/interest.

No that's the one. Saw you updated the list with the other games I was interested in. Thanks!

I would be interested but already have tickets.
 
[quote name='WeaponX2099']Did anyone with u-verse get knocked off for a couple hours?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, happened yesterday afternoon to me, too. Apparently they had a network outage in Illinois, which is what I was told after finally connecting with a customer-service rep.

A day without Internet... now that'd be scary!

I don't have Internet at my new place yet. I've been holding out waiting for comcast to send me a 19.99/month deal or something. So far they sent several deals including $10 cable, but I only want Internet.

In the meantime, I go to the library for a hour and then to my parents house to use their connection. :lol:

I bought a HTC one V for $50 over BF and was hoping I could pick up free wifi, but no luck.

AT&T only sent me one mailer (in Spanish), but I could tell it was 14.99/month with existing landline phone service (which, I don't have).
 
^ And from Comcast, at most you're gonna get a price that's good for 6 months. America lags far behind the rest of the industrialized world in both healthcare affordability and ISP price
 
[quote name='dfg']^ And from Comcast, at most you're gonna get a price that's good for 6 months. America lags far behind the rest of the industrialized world in both healthcare affordability and ISP price[/QUOTE]

Yeah, I think 19.99 for 6 months will be the best 'deal' I can get. bummer
 
Was hoping to lose my AT&T land line, especially if I can keep just the U-Verse Internet I've already got for a great price. A little scared of losing my connection due to any bureaucratic snafu when decoupling voice from data (to transfer the old landline number to a cell phone), but it's something I should probably take care of.

Any related experiences or advice would of course be appreciated. :whistle2:D
 
Ditch U-Verse, go to Comcast and don't look back. You won't regret it. It's so worth the extra money.
 
I've been with Comcast for a promotional period in the past, but if I can get low enough rates from U-Verse, I wouldn't mind sticking with them. Comcast isn't the worst alternative, however. (Would that be RCN?)
 
We ditched our home phone w/ AT&T years ago, and kept just the DSL. Price was okay, and I couldn't complain about speeds. In 2009 moved out here to Mt. Prospect and no high speed DSL available in our area, so we went with Comcast internet only. Almost twice as expensive and I know the speed is a lot better but I never really noticed a huge difference. Good thing in the last few years is no usage caps per month right now.
 
Man the Final Fantasy concert last night was a blast. It is quite moving to got to listen to Susan singing Answer and Eye on me in person, specially I am a player of FFXIV. God the merchandise line was hell long and most of the good stuff like the anniversary chocobo plush and mug are long gone half way. Thanks the god that they sell the same chocobo on amazon for a bit cheaper lol. No news of the mugs yet.
