Looks like my Oculus bundle from amazon is "shipping now", I ordered that thinking it would be a long wait. Well that is most exciting.

Now to figure out what to do with this extra PC.

No VR is "perfect" right now which is a huge let dow, but forseen

Does anyone here have any experience with Steam Link? For just $50, I am very tempted to buy one. Just curious about the overall performance?

I have a Steam link. Only used it a couple of times, but it works well. Does exactly what it's supposed to do. I'm very happy I have it. Got it as a gift, but well worth the $50.

Using it with an Xbox 360 controller and a knockoff wireless adapter. No issues.

One thing that I will note: I have a 16:10 monitor and a 16:9 TV, so I need to change the game resolutions to 16:9 to display without black bars on the TV.

Let me know if you have specific questions.

I've never eaten cardboard with cheese. I think I'd prefer Dominoes.

Honestly, thier pretty much the same thing and cardboard with cheese is actually cheaper. Then again, there are still people eating Totino's frozen pizza so I guess some people will eat pretty much anything these days. So by all means, continue enjoying your cardboard...I mean cheese and pepperoni pizza.

They basically have a 1 star rating on Consumeraffairs.com, and pretty much every other restaurant review site.

Here is my favorite review as its spot on!

Domino's to me, is the blockbuster of pizza. Please go out of business, cut your losses. When my work orders like 20 pies from Domino's, the 'pepperoni' tastes like someone's sweaty socks that have been left in the sun for 10 hours. We have to forfeit and give in to a cheese only slice. The cheese slice is bland, with lots of seasoning salt on the crust to, in my opinion, mask the foul flavor, and the mediocre crust - of the 'pizza' Domino's is pitching to you. When we order pies like this, there is a crowd of us, who would rather eat our bologna sandwiches we brought for lunch, than dig in to this greasy, salty conjuration of bread, meat and cheese that Domino's offers.

Newegg has some Ubi/Activision/2K stuff on sale + another 15% off with the voucher code EMCETGG65

*Edit: Forgot CAG hates Newegg links. Just put PPSSHATEVIZNVI in the search bar there.

There's nothing really new or exciting but some stuff 66%-75% that stacks with the extra 15% on top in case anyone missed them on past sales.

WWE2K16 PC needs a better discount than 33% before any sort of promo-stacking. Meh.

I own this for some reason. I know nothing about "wrastling". Nor did I buy it. Is this any good as a game if you don't know anything about it? I think last time I watched wrestling Macho Man was spanking the Hulkster or something. So like 20-30 years.

Probably not a glitch it was just 66% off on some other random site the other day. Also Microids so it will be bundled duh.

You're just trying to trick people into buying it so you can laugh at them.

I don't have 2K16 PC, but I do have 2K15 PC.

Even despite its numerous flaws, I really liked 2K15 PC - and still play the living hell out of it. 2K's versions of the WWE games are not as fast + as arcade-like as many of the previous WWE games. It's slower and more Sim-like, emulating the real-life WWE TV show more so than ever before. Some people love it, some people hate the change. [shrug]

I'm fine w/ the Sim-like nature of WWE 2K15's combat.

2K16 is supposed to be a lot better, as a game. 2K16 has a much bigger roster; more wrestling moves; Create a Diva returns (that wasn't in 2K15); MyCareer Mode (where you Create-A-Wrestler and work your way from WWE PErformance Center to NXT To Smackdown to Raw to PPV's and then up to the top of the WWE) actually can continue after winning WWE Title (in 2K15, you win the title, retire, then get a few final matches to end your career as a send-off); MyCareer goes up to WWE Hall of Fame now; more match types; actually perform run-in's; and other madness.

I'm not sure what 2K16 did w/ MyUniverse Mode - but once MyCareer in 2K15 was over, I moved my CAW (Create-A-Wrestler) over to MyUniverse Mode. MyUniverse in 2K15 feels like it's a never-ending WWE TV show/soap-opera - as you can set-up the actual shows + PPV's; rosters for the shows; matches; rivalries; and other things. I love this mode - and always find myself fitting in a match here and there for 15-30 minutes; or just flat-out playing the game for a few hours.

Basically, 2K16 is supposed to be a better 2K15 w/ the kitchen sink thrown on top.

That Activision sale... sigh. I could've gotten Fast and Furious Shodown for cheaper...

Ah well, I got something else to keep me busy.

Hmm, Grandia 2 for $10. Do I dare half fakey it and see it in the next Humble?

I wondered the same thing while staring at my Dreamcast with the VGA box and a cardboard box that contains my original copy of the game. It has been on my wish list for quite some time, though, so I'll probably bite. My favorite thing about Grandia II is that the guy who provides the voice of Ryudo also plays the giant talking spring in the Mattress Factory commercials!

Disagree, had plenty of Domino's and that review only gets right that it's greasy and salty. I always get extra sauce so maybe that makes a difference, but since their change however long ago I've thought it was pretty good for what you pay (decent overall).

Totino's have a certain charm to them, and are really cheap. They aren't good but their weird crust is something quite different and as long as you only cheese they can work for cheap fill-up (their toppings are god awful, thus stick with cheese).

I embrace the tiny chunks of whatever substance they call pepperoni. $1 fill up works for my cheapass stomach.

 
Can't remember if this freebie for the division was mentioned already but for this weekend only, go to the rewards vendor in the base of operations for 150 Phoenix credits.
 
Making your own pizza > brick oven pizza from a farmer's market > local House of Pizza-style pizza with large portion toppings > California Pizza Kitchen > Fazoli's > most frozen pizza that costs over $6 (like Newman's and DiGiorno) > Papa John's > Zizzi > Toppers Pizza > Pizza Hut > Walmart brand pizza > Domino's > shitty cheapo pizza like Totino's and Tony's > Little Ceasar

Little Caesars is definitely the worst.

My wife accidentally got a pineapple/bacon/pepper pizza from papa John's awhile ago when trying to get a Hawaiian and it was pretty good. Plus it was endorsed by Peyton Manning! Has to count for something.

Wow. I eat Dominos whenever they have a 50% off deal or a Large 2-Topping deal, which is almost never, but the pizza is usually pretty good. On average, it's better than Papa Johns and leagues better than Pizza Butt. It's no great cuisine, but it's worth the sale price. I guess all those people live in some shitty areas. Also, most satisfied customers don't leave a review. It's those that were wronged that usually leave reviews.

I'll be honest, like I don't really care about pizza that much either way. I haven't had Domino's in over a year mostly because my wife prefers Pizza Hut. I've had Papa Johns recently and it's good for what it is ( a sweeter pizza IMO). I prefer Pizza Hut hand tossed and don't like the pan. But the times I ate Domino's it was fine for what it was - cheap pizza. I've had "fancy" neopolitan pizza, brick oven pizza, etc. It's all fine for what it is (though once it gets to a certain point, any pizza becomes overpriced especially Zaw in Seattle). If there's one pizza place I would say was really good, it would be Mod in Seattle. Now for frozen, I grew up on Totino's and other similar cheap frozen pizzas. As someone mentioned, they tend to have their charm. Different crusts and overall flavor. Yeah, low quality cube toppings, but they have their place. Like a can of Chef Boyardee is not going to compete with home-cooked Italian, but it doesn't mean it's necessarily bad.

That review obviously is more about hyperbole and lols than actually complaining about the pizza.

I recently had Sam's Choice Stuff Crusted frozen pizza (I assume it is a Wal-mart house brand) and it was surprisingly solid for both a frozen pizza and stuff crust so my non-pizza snobs may want to check it out.

Do they know how much you suck at video games? Are they still friends with you? Either way, Happy Birthday Benjabroni!
