Also Vig, please make Lego Marvel PS4 be $10 today on Gamefly.
Since it has been in my Q for a while, but not near enough the top where I would get it, I can say I would not be surprised for it to get down to that range sometime soon. It has been Available Now for quite some time. Usually those are the ones that start seeing really good sales.

 
Question.

Do you guys go to the doctor when you get sick?  All the ladies at my work keep giving me shit for not going to a doctor.  But what can a doctor actually do for congested sinuses and a sore throat?

For that no. If it persists for 3 or 4 weeks maybe. I have allergies so it would be a waste of time and money running to the doc for something like that.

Nothing except give you prescription cold medicine... honestly it should take a few days to get better if you go a week and it hasn't gotten any better then go to the doctor. I never go to the doctor when I am sick... I simply need rest and regular cold and cough medicine.

If I think the Doctor will do any good, yes. For allergies and sinus stuff (unless it has been long enough to become a sinus infection) they can not do anything for you. If you really think it is allergies that are that bad, I would probably go to an allergist. They cant do anything for you right now though.

 
Oh I'm finally feeling better.  Just wondering how the rest of you operate.  Going to the doctor for the sniffles and a sore throat seems asinine to me.  But this is the 2nd day that my staff has bugged me about going to the doctor.

Allergies, no. I get strep once a year so I know what it feels like and I know what to look for so I go when I know it's strep. Other than that, only if it is something I know has gone on abnormally long or something causing me a lot of consistent pain like my current stomach thing.

 
Best thing for a sore throat is buying saline spray.  Typical name brand version is called Ocean.  If you lay down and drop a few drops of that down your nose, the salt water will heal it up over a couple days.  You can even make your own salt water if you want and are really cheap.  JUST DO NOT USE IODIZED SALT.  Well I guess you can if you like having your nose feel like it is on fire.

Heck no, unless I have something that persists for longer than a week. I usually drink lots of fluids (mainly orange juice and water), take a couple of Vitamin C tablets daily, and sometimes Dayquil/Nyquil depending on the severity of the sinus congestion. If the sore throat is really bad, I keep a few Halls cough drops handy.

 
All I do during streams is lie. Except when it comes to buttholes. I am always brutally honest about them.

Yup.

Orange Juice

Water

Sleep/Sleeping Pills

Clorox Disinfecting Wipes for everything I touch

Cough Drops

Usually I'm healthy in 3-4 days. Obviously if I had a nagging cold or anything that went on for weeks at a time I would go to a doctor, but apparently my co-workers rush to their doctor every time they sneeze.

 
Here I thought you just made up the name of game and continued to review it over the course of a few days, imagine my surprise when I looked for it in the store and it actually came up! :shock:

Oh and up to Chapter 11 on Spec Ops. :shock: :shock:

I think were going to reach maximum :shock: with this one.

Good movie. Slow, but good. Nice OST as well.

Kinda curious about the comic but know I'll never get around to reading it.

 
I voted Drive Club but would have probably selected none if it was an option.  I loved Batman AA but owned it at least 3 different times between my XBox 360 and PS3.  I didn't care for the challenges so I probably will not play it again any time soon if ever.  

I will probably download Drive Club and play it once or twice and never again.  I am not big on driving games.

Changed my vote to none.

There should be an option for none in the poll. Dust has been praised here, but nothing there really pops out for me. 

 
I'm excited about every game!

That's probably not accurate, but I started clicking and then I didn't want any games to feel left out.  Poor AA.  If I hadn't already played it multiple times and already gotten the plat, I might play it again.

I voted Dust and Pix. I'm looking forward to Pix, and I've beat Dust before but I'd love to play through it again for more trophies (hopefully a platinum).

I don't like racing games so Driveclub doesn't interest me. I own Spelunky ($3.75), Mystara ($5.74 or something), and Rainbow Moon (paid way too much). And Arkham Asylum :roll:

 
Woohoo! New poll!

I voted for everything except Rainbow Moon, which I already have. For some dumb reason I bought that for Vita and PS3, paying extra for the privilege, and I have never played it on PS3. So the fact that it is not only going Plus, but it will now be cross buy… that really grinds my gears!! Slap in the face!

I voted for RM as well if only because I'm curious what people will think of it when they give it a spin.

 
I voted for everything except Spelunky (if it had a plat, then maybe, but no), Arkham Asylum (just guess why :roll:), and Rainbow Moon (doesn't look interesting).

Even after being spoiled by SoM, I'd go play AA if I already didn't play it twice and have the platinum. Game is smartly written, gameplay holds up and it's fucking Batman.

I included Spelunky because while I don't get it free since I already have it, I am excited to play and stream it on PS4, plus for the updates coming along with it (uploading replays/being able to watch replays, especially). I am also a bit excited that it's going plus because this guy (game developer) I follow on twitter who is really good at the game is on my friends list and he has been playing on PC, but will now be doing the DC on PS4 too and that ensures that I have somebody to chase after on a daily basis!

 
Rainbow Moon was hella fun. I don't think I'm going to vote for anything. I might play driveclub, but probably not longer than an hour or so. At that point, I will tell everyone how easy it is, how I hate that I can't reverse the wheel controls, and how it's the worst driving game of all time. And then when someone criticizes me, I will put up a picture that only I think is funny and say their post isn't worth reading.
