    Easy. Amazon still has it listed for just 29.99 for a year. ]Amazon.com: 1-Year PlayStation Plus Membership - PS3/ PS4/ PS Vita [Digital Code]: Video Games It does have a warning on that page though.

    I'm going to go with a little bit of both. People really hated the bullshit Microsoft pulled early on by being a big spying machine that wasn't user friendly (no rented games or anything like that). Then it turns out the system is "decent", but not amazing. Lots of hate towards the Kinect...

    I was betting on large shortages plus them trying to ship the unit out to 13 different countries. I wasn't expecting them to ship 75% of the release to the US alone. My mistake. I still stand by my numbers though. We'll see how many they sell total by the 4 month mark. I might lose, but...

    Sony's first release that sold 1 million in 24 hours was "North America Only" (USA, Canada & Mexico). This 2nd release is "Europe & Australia Only". People are expecting another million consoles to sell this release, but that possible million won't add to the North America totals for the contest.

    The 1 million consoles in 24 hours were in the 13 countries the console was released in. The 1 million in a week is US only.

    Yeah, Vulak was free loot. The fight itself was very easy, just a matter of how well your clerics were able to conserve their mana. The only thing he had going was a super large health pool. Something like 750k when the next closest was maybe 400k (I think it was Lord Yelinak). Health pools...

    Just imagine how much dick she was sucking while trying to be a pop star. I wouldn't be surprised if she's in the triple digits by now.

    Yeah, It dropped down to $89.99 for a little bit yesterday. It's back up to $99.99 now, for some reason.

    Supposedly. But only if you're playing the same game over and over. If you're constantly swapping, the hard drive isn't nearly as fast as it could be. This thing has 64 gigs of "SSD storage", so the standard 5400 rpm drive puts the files on that SSD drive to give them quick access. If...

    I hated that you couldn't play Gameboy in the dark. When I was growing up, my parents had a big American Eagle bus thing (motor home). I had an AC adapter on my Game Gear, and every year we would drive to Florida for a week and stay at Fort Wilderness in Disney World (back when River Country...

    Yeah, I'm looking forward to it also. I'm a big FF nerd. But I am looking forward to another story. The lightning arc is getting tired at this point, even if she wasn't around much in the last game.

    I played the shit out of some Eco the Dolphin on my Game Gear. The Sonic games were decent too. If I remember, there was a jet game that I bought, but I wasn't very good at it. But I loved the Game Gear.

    Looks like the launch week sales for -3 aren't that hot. For reference, XIII sold 1,501,964 launch week. XIII-2 sold 524,277 launch week. XIII-3 sold 277,082 launch week. See ya, lightning. The game looks interesting, but her story has gone on long enough.

    I look at it as my wife is going to buy shit for herself for $75. Then I can get a great discount on a Wii U after the fact. It's a good deal, IMHO.

    I don't remember if my fat PS2 drive ever failed. I think I actually got rid of the system when I got my PS3 because it would still play the games. Not 100% certain though. I picked that up launch day. Spent the night in front of Best Buy for it.

    The new Gen has started: Where do you stand?

    Ghosts isn't indicative of the capabilities. It looks like ass compared to other games already. Almost as if it's running in the same graphical quality as the PS3 or Xbox 360. It's just a higher resolution.
