One of my favorite thing about this channel (don't remember if Game Show Network was good at it) is that they seem to do a really good job of running the episodes in order. Since so many game shows back then just played for 30 mins then stopped regardless of where they were in the game, it's cool to see the next episode on right after.

 
Camping out for Black Friday already.

And before you ask, yes, he does freestyle rap about black friday.

 
[quote name="simmias" post="13050251" timestamp="1448332036"]The CAG who sells them told me he gets them from a guy who buys them in bulk from Hulu. He's been selling them for quite a while now. If they were bought with stolen cards or something Hulu would cancel the accounts, yet that hasn't happened to the many, many people who have bought them.[/quote]

I want to believe. But his cost would have to be less then he's selling them for. That's quite a bulk discount.

The first day or so they ran the episodes in reverse order for some reason but they fixed it quickly.

 
Poor sap or not, I'm pretty sure preorders aren't supposed to be sold to someone who didn't preorder. Isn't that the whole reason to preorder something--to secure your copy?

Dear guy:

Black Friday started last week. I'm already halfway done.

Sincerely,

A guy in his apartment being warm and smart

 
Started GHL. It's fun. The wife hates the Live stuff but she got really into the GHTV thing when I played Tribute, Eye of the Tiger, and Chop Suey! The Live stuff is kinda annoying, but not too bad.

The guitar is a piece of crap. I'm going to have to take it back to BB for an exchange. Apparently the strummer doesn't work for a lot of people, me included. Seems like the buttons are a bit flakey as well though I'll admit that might be because I'm struggling a bit with the 6-button layout. I do just fine when the buttons stay on one row, but when it switches back and forth it throws me off position.

 
I did that shit all the time when I was bored out my gourd at my grandma's house.
I used to have a bunch of the at home game show games. Price is Right, Deluxe Wheel of Fortune with the spinning wheel, a couple of Jeopardy versions, Sale of the Century, a couple of versions of Family Feud, Blockbusters, $1000000 Chance of a Lifetime, and some electronic version of Name That Tune is what I remember.

 
Looks like a best of 10 cent movie rentals as it's repeats from the last few days:

Pitch Perfect 2, Ex Machina, Jurassic World, Terminator Genisys, Inception, Groundhog Day, ET, Devil Wears Prada, Enter the Dragon, Office Space, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, and Great Hatsby

 
Dead Nation vita must just have a conflict, adhoc mode worked just fine connecting my vita to my PSTV for Dragon's Crown, The vita was able to jump into the PSTV's game.

I tried it out tonight too. The mixed colors threw me off at first too but I adjusted quickly. I like the new layout. I'll test the guitar over the next couple days to make sure I don't run into any issues.

PopCap is giving players 80,000 free coins in PVZGW to celebrate 8 million players. I booted it up today. Not sure if it's automatic or how long it'll last.

I have GH Live on my amazon cart, but considering my rotten luck with past gh and rb guitars and reading this... I just don't know.
 
Get it from BB. Easy to exchange if there's an issue. Most of the problems I've read about are out of the box. The faulty strummer is the most common issue I've seen mentioned.

Still enjoying it, though definitely the GHTV component more than Live. My hands are giving me fits after a few hours of play, though. All those weird, unfamiliar finger contortions.

 
BTW the problem with the strummer is that it only works in one direction. If I strum down it's fine, but up doesn't work. I'm not sure if that matters for gameplay but the strummer is used to go up and down in the menus so it's pretty noticeable there. There's an additional direction button on the guitar that you can use for navigation so the strummer being broken doesn't completely kill your ability to play the game. Still annoying, though.

 
There's a better code for first-time Jet.com buyers: JETCOMSAVE2

That gets you $25 off $50. Sorry, Mild, but I might get Mario Maker anyway at another $5 off.

EDIT: At least, I would if it wasn't OOS. Crap.
Perfect! Both Db xenoverse and dead rising apocalypse edition for $28. Last 2 things I needed for my boner.

For some reason dead rising wasn't in the one list, but it appeared when I searched.

Also, fuck sites with save on X amount of dollars, but stuff you want is .01 off. Almost got infinity 3.0, but PS4 is 49.99.

Well fuck I need to read the thread. Just used the $20 one 15 minutes ago to get the grey classic ds4 for 44.99

For higher difficulties even with the new note layout, I think strumming up would be necessary. At least it is on RB/GH expert difficulty.

 
Hey Vig (and anyone but Vig is the resident flipping fool), I can price match Need for Speed $40 from Amazon at Best Buy right?  I am Elite after all so I have 30 days on returns.  Plus Holiday return time period and all that.  So I can get $8 right?

If you already bought Need for Speed then you can't do a price adjustment at BB but you could price match a new copy and return it with the old receipt.
 
I thought when Jet started there was a membership fee like Sam's.  Is that not the case anymore?  Also, I assume you can use the cheap filler trick to get over the $50 boundary like you can on other sites, right?

Yeah, they abandoned that plan when they didn't get many people to sign up. I heard about that somewhere, but can't remember where.

So do I pull the trigger on DI 3.0 and a bottle of Clorox Cleanup for ~$28 after code or wait for the game to drop considerably later.  Decisions, decisions...

Wow, that early BF for My Best Buy thing is terrible. I guess if I had some extra money I might get that Harmony remote for $50, though. That's a good deal.

 
just do it. tis the season.
I know, if my kid wasn't already getting way too much shit, I would not even think twice. Since his birthday just happened last month too, saving it for that isn't really an option.

I wish there was something on the site I thought my youngest would like. Not really sure what to get him like I am the older one.
