If you do multiple quick swipes in the direction of the arrow it will register. I know that sounds dumb because you think it would false read doing it multiple times, but it doesn't. If you see the arrow turn green stop.

Until I read that tip I never even came close. After I think I did it on my 2nd try.
I did that plenty of time during climbing sequences and such. It didn't seem like it worked on the boss battle, though again I'm not sure which version of the game I have. Could be something they patched in or patched out.

 
I'm going to go pick up the metal gear solid hd collection for vita at a target today in hopes that I can actually finish mgs2.  then I can speak with authority and knowledge on how it is the worst game of all time.

MGS HD Collection vita $15 207-20-0088

 
Looks like Leo's seen some sh*t judging from that amazing facial expression of his.

So I assume all of you that got Toy Soldiers got the version with all 8 armies.  If not, and someone wants the DLC with the other 4, there is someone selling it for $10 on another site in cast anyone is interested at that price.

 
I think I might have broken my 3 day trophy streak the other day, but as long as I don't update truetrophies it seems to keep saying my current streak is 3 days. Therefore not broken. I am never going to update again.

It updates automatically. I assume you just have not synced trophies lately on all your platforms. It will eventually bust you.

 
So the manager with resting bitch face was their at BB last night when I tried to get the $10 off Mad max, she said no, I said I want another manager.  Guy got another guy and he did it no problem... this girl seriously has a problem.

Best Buy and Monster facing a 5 million class action lawsuit over false advertising on those overpriced HDMI cables.
Best Buy and Monster Inc. face a proposed $5 million false advertising class action lawsuit over allegations of misleading consumers into purchasing a Monster brand HDMI cable over a basic HDMI cable by suggesting certain HDTVs will only work with a Monster cable.

According to the Monster HDMI cables class action lawsuit, the packaging on Monster cables misrepresents that 1080p and 4K HDTVs will not work properly unless consumers use Monster HDMI cables.

However, technology experts say that the high-priced Monster HDMI cables have no effect on video quality. “Claims that more expensive cables put forth greater video or audio fidelity are nonsense; it’s like saying you can get better-looking YouTube videos on your laptop by buying more expensive Ethernet cables,” the class action lawsuit quotes. “From a technical standpoint, it simply doesn’t make sense.”

Lead plaintiff Benjamin Perez of California alleges he carefully reviewed the Monster HDMI cable package and paid a premium price which was 1,748 percent higher than a basic HDMI cable. Perez claims that the Monster HDMI package stated that a cable with a bandwidth greater than 10.2 Gbps was needed to transmit video to his television but then later Perez found out that statement wasn’t true. Perez claims he would not have purchased the Monster cable for $189 had he known that the promised benefit was “illusory.”

The HDMI cable class action lawsuit states that Best Buy promotes, advertises and distributes Monster HDMI cables to hundreds of thousands of U.S. customers due to false and misleading representation. In a recent comparison, the plaintiff claims that an average price of a Monster Black Platinum Ultimate 9-foot cable, which retails for $119.99, compared with the price of a 9.8-foot high-speed HDMI cable produced by AmazonBasics, which retails for $6.49, shows just how much Monster is overcharging for their product.

Perez filed the potential $5 million class action lawsuit against Best Buy and Monster Inc. accusing the companies of negligent misrepresentation and omissions “intended to induce and actually induced” the plaintiff and other consumers into purchasing a Monster HDMI cable.

The Monster HDMI cable class action lawsuit also alleges that the defendants violated California’s Consumer Legal Remedies Act by using unfair methods of competition and fraudulent acts “in that they misrepresent the particular characteristics, benefits and quantities of the goods.”

If approved, the Monster HDMI cables class action lawsuit would seek to represent a nationwide class open to all Class Members who purchased a Monster HDMI cable. Perez is also seeking two additional subclasses; one that would include all Class Members who purchased a Monster HDMI cable from Best Buy and another subclass that would be open to all Class Members who purchased a Monster HDMI cable in California.

The plaintiff is represented by L. Timothy Fisher, Julia A. Luster and Scott A. Bursor of Bursor & Fisher P.A.
The Monster HDMI Cables Class Action Lawsuit is Perez v. Monster Inc., et al,Case No. 3:15-cv-03885, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
About time Monster got some kind of shit for selling HDMI cables at obscene prices. Can't help but also think that this is exactly why you should do a little bit of research before buying anything.

I think people are selling it in the psn code thread for less than that.
 
Wow, Foul Play is really good so far... I would think anyone that enjoyed Castle Crashers would like it.

Kinda fucked up though that according to TT, six people own the game and they're all from this thread (counting myself, site hasn't registered me yet)... guess everyone's busy playing Grow Home, the game of the people.
they didn't advertise this even a little bit, it's almost like they released it on accident. it's not a blockbuster or anything but it's a semi-notable indie that people liked on steam and reviewed ok, released by devolver and is the first original console/steam title (I think) by the people who remade the current incarnation of hatoful boyfriend. and it's a coop title. besides all that, it's supporting their Heroes program with money going to charity. all they've done so far though is list it as a new release along with the giant pile of other releases from yesterday with a price of $10.

I would think the trophy sluts would be eating it up too being just $2 and probably in the neighborhood of a 10 hour plat. I'm only on the second play but so far everything seems quite doable even for someone with my complete lack of video game talent.

edit - nevermind, I see they did post it on the blog after I went home yesterday http://blog.us.playstation.com/2015/09/01/win-a-trip-to-playstation-experience-with-ps-heroes/

Played more RE: Revelations 2 on Vita and had the same thing happen at the end of the mission. That was fun. Luckily I manged to do it in about the 3rd try...I think it was because both characters needed to be close to the door. Got the trophy though so that's something :)

Kind of forced myself to pop in MGSV late last night (I was tired) but ended up playing for about an hour. It starts slow but it sure does look good. 

Hearing Vig talk about Peace Walker makes me think I should get the PS3 version at some point (finished it on PSP) so I could play it and get some trophies for it. Man that game was frigging great.

It was pretty great, but my gosh there were too many vehicle-fight Extra Ops (which became a chore once I had the means to easily S-rank them). If not for those, I probably would have been done with PW much sooner.

Thanks, I just posted in case it helped anyone. It doesn't really surprise me that this guy might be asking more than the going rate, but I figured those in the market from this site would know if it was a deal or not.

Funny thing, I own a bunch of these because as a Best Buy employee I got them for $10 or less. And our employee discount was 10% over actual price. So those cables really only cost around $9 to Best Buy and then they sell them at $189

 
My order of $10 PSN money from sonyrewards still hasn't been "shipped". It's been 3 days I think? Pretty ridiculous. The points I used toward it are marked as "on hold". I don't remember it taking this long in the past I don't think.

Hmmm, I don't remember those extra ops....were they added to the PS3 version? Unless I just ignored them. The main game plus the build your base, send out troops, etc stuff was a lot of fun. I don't even like that stuff normally.

Pretty sure last time I redeemed for PSN credit it took a really long time that didn't make sense as well. Those codes don't just generate themselves you know!!

No, they were in the PSP version, but they were on a separate tab in the Mission Selection screen (unless you were on "All"). You also had to unlock a bunch of the Extra Ops by completing other Extra Ops.

And yeah, Outer Ops (sending out troops) was great fun, especially watching the battles unfold. I actually managed to finish all of them without anyone dying despite there being a trophy only for completing the hardest one with just soldiers.

Yeah, they usually take a long time. My last $10 PSN purchase from Sony Rewards was on Aug 23rd and I had to wait until the 24th for the code to arrive. I thought it would never show up. They must have gone with the bulk rate on their emails that day. :nottalking:

 
Shit, I had some crap go down awhile back with my BB rewards account...I had 3 accounts from their incompetence. I thought it was all worked out...got it down to 1, but now I'm seeing someone else has been using my rewards number (probably by account number) which I brought up in the past to CS and they kind of brushed it off as a 1 time thing...blah blah blah. So they actually bumped me to Elite from some purchases this other person made but they also just used my $5 rewards cert. I guess I'll have to call them now since this is my only account now and it has GCU until 2020 on it. 

It's a shame because in some ways they have gotten better but this is just a dumb mistake on their part that could have been avoided. Guess I'll go right to a manager or supervisor at the call center. 

 
Brittany circled the survey portion of my Gamestop receipt with a smiley face, and she made one of the eyes smaller so it looks like it's winking. The D: she wants it or no?

The last one I ordered took a week to get the code.

Maybe if you happen to keep all your money on your Edge card and she saw the balance. Even then she may not want it, but she might be willing to put up with it.

I have 2 BB accounts. When I was dealing with all that GCU coupon bullshit a couple people I talked to wanted to merge my accounts but I told them not to. I get $5 email coupons periodically on both. You know, the ones that have nothing to do with reward points but to encourage you to buy something. Free money.  :whistle2:

Maybe there's a better deal out there, but I just grabbed the collection at gamestop for the $17 or so they have it for.

The dollar yes. The dick maybe or she's a bad drawer. You should tell her your survey can be influenced over say, dinner and a movie.

Man, the English language is stupid for having the exact same spelling to describe someone who draws and the things you pull out to put clothes or stuff in on a dresser.

ahhhhh, ok now I remember them....I did do some of them but definitely not all of them.

 
That's some serious bullshit.
I just ordered one yesterday too, just checked it's not even out of the processing phase. Something like this should go threw automagically like with buying a code on Amazon or Gamestop you get it pretty much instantly.

Don't they email it? Seem to recall I got it in a couple hours tops.
