Re: Battlefield 3 (1 year ago)

The 360 beta is broken. Trying to play for the last 2 hours and it either freezes or there is unplayable rubber-band lag. Disappointed.

Dr Kawashima's brain and body exercises for Kinect is $10 at Big W. The clerk said the sale ends today.

Re: The Freebie Thread (1 year ago)

I have a code for Call of Juarez the Cartel on 360. It's for a tactical machine pistol. If anyone wants it, PM me

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

IMO it is a fiasco when you are told numerous times they have been sent, and are in the mail, and they don't come for 3 months. This is blatant manipulation. I will never buy from them again due to the fact that they lie to their customers. Fiasco? Yes.

Re: Your newest purchase (1 year ago)

I just bought Bodycount for a bit of blasty FPS fun. Bought it at EB just in case it's really bad and I can return it

Re: Your newest purchase (1 year ago)

It's quite nice, the bonus DVD and DLC are sweet, but to make you feel better, the art book is paperback, and not hard cover like the US versions. That made me cranky!

Re: Your newest purchase (1 year ago)

Picked up Deus Ex Augmented Edition today. Cannot wait to get into it, haven't been this excited for a new release for ages!

Re: What game are you playing? (1 year ago)

I am playing Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet on XBLA. Was loving the trial so bought it.

It kind of reminds me of the pixel junk shooter games, but I actually prefer it, the graphics and gameplay are a bit more varied. There are boss battles and they take a bit of strategy. Am loving it! Hopefully will finish it this weekend unless I get stuck and rage quit.

I highly suggest people d/l the trial!

Re: What made you smile today? (1 year ago)

I am so happy as my young dog had his surgery to remove his cancer this week and the lab results came back today, and they say he is now cancer free and doesn't need radiotherapy or chemotherapy!! YAY F&#ING YAY! *





*Also this means I can afford to buy games for the next decade YAY

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

Big W game bargains are back this week.

Child of Eden will be $39 on Thursday, as well as other bargains during the week. Today is Call of Juarez the Cartel for $50. (Still overpriced IMO)

Re: What really ticks you off? (1 year ago)

What ticks me off is finding out that my dog's lump is indeed cancer

He should be okay once they cut a chunk of his leg out on Tuesday. May not need radiation. Super upset but I am glad I took him to the vet when I felt it. Sometimes life sucks a lot!

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

Yep they do.

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

Thanks, emech! Much better than the $150 all the Aussie stores are charging, worth the week's wait for delivery

Re: What really ticks you off? (1 year ago)

No, he's a schnauzer cross. I love staffys though, they are so cute.

Re: What really ticks you off? (1 year ago)

My 6 year old dog has to have a biopsy on a lump on his leg on Tuesday, to find out if it is cancerous. I'm gutted. Also it's gonna cost $600. The money is a pain, but the thought of my boy maybe having cancer feels like crap.

Re: 2 10% zavvi Codes to give away (1 year ago)

DOH!! Have been scouring the web for codes all morning lol. If anyone has a spare...

Re: Your newest purchase (1 year ago)

Bought my first full HD TV. Was very cheap, I thought 40" was a bit small but for the price I couldn't say no. Can't believe how much better the picture quality is on a full HD set. Before this I was running a 720p 6 year old LG plasma. I'm so happy!

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

In my local JB hifi, Yakuza 4 Shiro Edition was $69 PLUS free Yakuza 3 with purchase! Thought it was an awesome deal, not sure if it's at all JB's.

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

Today's Big W online special is Duke Nukem Forever, both platforms, for $48.

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

Zavvi has Motorstorm Apocalypse for $28 as part of their mega monday.

BUT - it won't be despatched for a month according to them. Still, super price!

Re: Your newest purchase (1 year ago)

Yeah, you should check it out! This was the first time I'd been in 2 years. The bluray guy looks like he'd be there every week

Re: Your newest purchase (1 year ago)

I popped in to Camberwell Market this morning. Got:

Donnie Darko 2 disc blu ray - $8
Sealed Dead Space downfall blu ray - $8
A 28 Days later and 28 weeks later dvd $4.

Was hoping there'd be some games, but nyet.

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

Over at Ecogamer, someone saw it for $48 at Harvey Norman Knox. Maybe other Harveys have it for the same price.

Re: Your newest purchase (1 year ago)

I've gone a bit nuts this month via Dungeon Crawl online and Cashies.... just picked up FEAR 3 CE, the Alma figurine is quite disgusting, actually lol.

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

Also Crackdown 2 is 5.85 pounds at Zavvi, so what, about $8?

However, it's not as good a game as Enslaved, but still, probably worth $8!

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

Vanquish is now $18 at GAME.com.au.

I highly recommend this, especially for $18!

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

Aw gee. My XBL friends have been downloading it. I bought it last week. They seem to be happy, but if you're right, then there's a lot of excitement for nothing...

Re: Gaming Bargains V2 (1 year ago)

LA Noire's Rockstar pass DLC has gone from 800ms points to zero ms points this morning. Hopefully it's still free, check it out
