Half a Billion freakn dollars in ONE day....

By SeanmcR6 - Posted on 14 November 2011

This will pretty much be my last post about MW3.

I have no sympathy for any glitches, failures or hiccups for MW3.

Half a billion dollars should more than be enough to ensure our gaming experience is the BEST on the planet. No Excuses. Buy Cisco if you have to...you can afford it.

Best Buy deal for Turtle Beach Headphones

By Blackwalt - Posted on 14 November 2011

We've been keeping this to ourselves but...

So Turtle Beach has released a series of Modern Warfare 3 branded headphones. Timed, coincidentally, with the release of Modern Warfare 3

But they are fairly expensive and I (and Graybush and Coxxorz) had pretty much decided to give them a pass.

Until that is, Graybush's wife passed on a 25% off Best Buy rewards coupon. Good until November 17.

You can download it here.

I can confirm, as can Graybush, that the coupon works although they do need your Best Buy Rewards membership number as well.

And on a totally unrelated note I now have available a slightly used set of Turtle Beach X41s if anyone wants to make a decent offer...

Game of Thrones game?

By Akuf - Posted on 10 November 2011

Game of Thrones
I don't know, but I have mixed feelings about this.
On one hand, if they do a great job it will be awesome
On the other hand well it could ruin GoT for everyone (or not).

Yes, I know, I have a nasty habit of stating the obvious...

Modern Warfare 3 Hardened Edition available

By Blackwalt - Posted on 09 November 2011

Because somehow, I have two

Don't ask why I have two copies of the Modern Warfare 3 Hardened Edition although you may assume that Coxxorz is involved.

Anyway I am about to return my second copy. Tomorrow morning in fact.

If you would like a copy of the Hardened Edition I will sell you mine instead of returning it. But you need to let me know before tomorrow morning.

I only post this because Coxxorz says they are hard to find.

He is planning on making a profit off of his extra copy. I will sell mine to you at cost (well, close anyway).

Activision having troubles

By SeanmcR6 - Posted on 08 November 2011

Thankfully, these issues aren't effecting gameplay, just the Elite program/server. However, I don't buy their excuse that there were more registrants than they expected. They had pre-order numbers, they new how many copies op the game was going out there....

EB Games is the worst company

By SeanmcR6 - Posted on 08 November 2011

In the world!!

Stood in line since 10:30.:::at 5 to midnight, a dude comes out and says we need a sticker on our receipt. No sticker, you need to form a new line.

Apparently, they were letting people come in between 6 and 11...yes, 11....to go through the computer system before hand. So even if you've paid in full, and you have the receipt, they need to put you through the computer.

What....The....FauCK!!!!!

So I'm still in line....in the store....and nothing is moving cause their debit is down....

What a fuckn gong show.

Also, 2 people working behind the counter... Read more

GRRRRRR AARRGGGGG

By SeanmcR6 - Posted on 07 November 2011

K, so most of you are probably being let into BestBuy or Futureshop right now....and I have to wait another 2 hours :( Frankly, these midnight launches need to accept the fact of TIME ZONES and let us have the game at the same time :\

yes, I'm pouting

I am about to leave to go to EB games and the dude on the radio says there is already more than 100 people there :o Which means once midnight comes, It'll take me another HOUR to actually get in the store.

for a video game...

I need to grow up

Joystiq reports: French delivery truck hijacked, 6,000 copies of Modern Warfare 3 stolen

    If you're in the Créteil area and happen to see two people in a delivery truck grinning like maniacs and most likely high-fiving a lot, you may want to contact the authorities. And everyone -- let's settle down. Modern Warfare 3 comes out on Tuesday. It's not worth jail time to play this one a few hours early.


Just what is wrong with Battlefield 3?

By Blackwalt - Posted on 07 November 2011

Herd of Cats presents:

Battlefield 3 was sold to us as better than Modern Warfare 3.

To no one's real surprise, that's not what we got. We got an upgraded version of every other Battlefield game and that's not what we were promised.

There is nothing wrong with Battlefield 3. I have played the Battlefields: Battlefield 1942, Battlefield Vietnam, Battlefield 2, Battlefield 2142, Battlefield Bad Company, Battlefield Bad Company 2 and even XBLA's Battlefield 1943. And they were all decent games.

None of them were better than the competing Call of Duty series. Sorry but they weren't.

According to EA, the previews and all the rhetoric to the media, that's what we were supposed to get this time. A game that would take down Call of Duty.

Only we didn't. We got the latest update in the Battlefield series. Thanks for moving the medic into the assault class and all but we were expecting more. And we didn't get it.

What we got was another Battlefield game with the same old Battlefield problems and even some new ones.

What do we think is wrong with battlefield 3?

Where do we begin? Well. Right here as it happens:

I am sad to say, that I must bid you all a fond fare the well as the moment that I have been waiting for has arrived. Ok, maybe not quite that dramatic, but what can I say.

Skyrim is finally just mere days away. Not a year. Not a month. Days. 4 Days. And I am ready.

Upgraded computer. Check.
