[quote name='InuFaye']Wubb,

I just got the email from the guy back, and he said the game was sealed and everything when he got it, but when he opened it he was surprised to find it without any UMD. He seems pretty honest after looking at his ebay feedback.

What should I tell him?[/QUOTE]

I'd ask him to take it up with the publisher and say I'll refund if they are unwilling to help him out.

I think most would disagree with me on the refund bit, but that's what I'd do. You could try something like asking him if a 1/2 refund would be acceptable since you are both sort of boned in this situation.

I didn't really have any physical attraction to her at all.

Ill look around and see what I can do for this sony phone number.

Is there anyone around here that can photoshop some stuff for me.
I need this a picture of a atari 2600 and a NES with a transparent background.[/QUOTE]

This is really quick and dirty, but here's hoping it does the trick:

I told the guy to look through the manual, and see what he can find.
If there is nothing to send sony customer support an email.
 
I was dead tired yesterday after I had trouble sleeping (for the first time in a while) the night before. Anyway I was playing my last Halo 3 match of the night before hitting the hay (and this was really going to be the last as I'd already had my "This should be my last match" match and my "Well maybe one more but that's it" match) when a crew of CAGs invited me in. I jumped in intending to say "Hey guys just wanted to hop in quickly here and say I'm going to bed." But as soon as I joined a few of them said "Alright wubb's in" and I got sucked in to another "last match of the night"

I think I need an intervention.
 
You're fine, Wubb. There's nothing wrong with staying up late to play video games. I remember with MGS2 I was playing it all night. When it got to the part when Raiden was running around naked and the game started to do some crazy things. I thought I was hallucinating.
 
[quote name='dallow']Good, I'm in the mood to be scared by a game.[/quote]

Bioshock was pretty good at that at some points. Rumors have it (via Zewone) Condemned 2 is generally scarier though.
 
The GGTers are talking about how GGT would be pronounced instead of video games. I'm gonna have to smack some wrists.
 
Harmonic Balancer cracked and is like spinning out of control on the inside, so the car was making this weird screeching sound for a day until I got it to him. Also had two pulleys that were cracked and shitty as well, so got those replaced.

$225 sounds pretty good for that to me.*


* knows nothing about cars.
 
Electrical work was also thrown in there cause I kept having a misfire when the car would switch gears.

He says the baby is purring once again and I'm just waiting for them to pick me up in it. :)
 
Thats not to awful bad.

I need to get the Cam Belt replaced in my car.(I cant do this myself since I have to take the engine apart).

Its gonna be like 300 dollars at least.

unrelated, but what's a bunnyblaze?
 
I think I'm just gonna play Halo 3 today instead of working through a bit more of PSU or starting Epi 1 of HL2.

I'm on the final two chapters of PSU and will get 500 GPs for clearing them but I think I need a break from that one. There's this whole thing about upgrading your weapon at a shop but I have no clue how it works. Don't think I'm going to bother figuring it out.
 
Also, I'm a bit late -- but I bought a sealed DQ8 (PS2) from BB in May 2006. I opened it Jan 2007 to find it had NO discs or manual. Not sure how that happened, but I'm guessing someone bought it, took the discs and everything out and then resealed the cellophane with superglue, returning it so I got screwed.

I called BB, they tracked the purchase via my RZ and were nice enough to refund my purchase by sending me a giftcard for the purchase amount.
 
If it's done like some TV shows where the characters drink from a can of coke or whatever, it won't be too bad I guess. Though there are games (like Oddworld) that have fun with making up brands and it would be a shame if that sort of thing is squashed in favor of IRL brand placement.
 
Man I love woot.com. They have the most ridiculous product descriptions.
Los Angeles: 2119. All the smart ones have left. They’re on Mars or one of the colonies. The only people here are regular guys like me. And the La Crosse Technology See-Thru Outdoor Window Thermometers.
The thing about the La Crosse Technology See-Thru Outdoor Window Thermometer is that they made them too well. They read from -22°F to 122°F with a temperature accuracy of +/ 1.5°F. There’s a weather resistant case too. Some people say that makes them better than regular guys. Maybe I even agree with that. But I’m the one with the gun.
Last week we found one hanging out in front of an apartment. We don’t know why they come back for sure. All we can do is guess. A lot of them are found with their low battery icon glowing. They run on a single AAA alkaline, and two come in the box, right next to the two adhesive strips. And they can’t change it themselves. Some of us regular guys think that’s what they’re after. But that doesn’t make sense to me.
That one outside the apartment. I caught it before 8:00 AM, when the MAX record resets. The MIN record resets at 8:00 PM, every day, but that’s not as important. The MAX showed me that it had been somewhere warm. Space isn’t warm at all. I figured that meant it had been hiding somewhere. And since the La Crosse Technology See-Thru Outdoor Window Thermometer updates temperatures every ten seconds, it had to be somewhere close by.
I asked a few questions and they led me to the glass panel. Maybe it was outside a window, maybe a door, that doesn’t matter. What matters is what I found there. There was little book full of temperatures. Written down, every day, like a diary. They told the story of a range I’d never know. Hot, cold, moderate, beautiful, I sat there and flipped through it for an hour until I was almost crying. About halfway through a second set of numbers appeared, almost the same, but not exactly. I tried to figure it out. Then I heard a click.
I moved slow, one hand on my weapon. There was a curtain, it shook a little. I grabbed for it and threw it aside. There she was. The second La Crosse Technology See-Thru Outdoor Window Thermometer. Looking at me like I was a monster.
I always heard the La Crosse Technology See-Thru Outdoor Window Thermometers were solitary. Turned out these two were a pair. They stood side by side, taking readings that were close, but not exact. They shared everything. They even shared the trip to Earth.
I had a lot to think about that night when I was drinking off my pay. About how maybe a regular guy wasn’t always something good. About how maybe just doing your job wasn’t always an excuse. And about how even a bunch of numbers could tell a good story. If the author was human enough.Los Angeles: 2119. All the smart ones have left. They’re on Mars or one of the colonies.

It was the red roof inn.

Does anyone know if I can put notes into a PowerPoint and then print them off so I can use them in a presentation I have to give tomorrow?
 
I'm about to purchase this right now.
Think it's safe to buy from Buy.com?

They have the cheapest price out there.
I could get it from Amazon with Prime 2 day shipping for $388 but I'd rather save $70+.

I can't believe Amazon had this for the $313 a month ago and I didn't bite.
Amazon won't match Buy.com right, or even give a discount?

So two questions basically.
 
Why wouldn't you buy from buy.com?

They're whats really good, $$$$a! What the hell are you buying anyways? No link or nothin'.
 
I've never had a problem.

Geostigma was removed from most people/online retailers when Sephiroth got beat up yeaaaaaaaaars ago.
 
Gotta leave the hotel soon. Mmm going to get some In and Out Burger for lunch.

Then an interview

Then flying back to Boston.
