tattoo's are so addicting...

I've got a Thundercats tattoo, Decepticon tattoo, USMC tattoo, a Black Light Burns tattoo and a "crazy" tattoo on the inside of my lip...so addicting...I've got the Prince Albert too ;)

Oh yeah...my vote...Red Mage.

Tue, 22 Apr 2008 18:02:55 MDT

@Netnavi:

Because Madden is going to be the stand-alone $60. Special Edition with NFL Head Coach included for $90.

So technically, you're getting a "deal" as both games will run you $120 separately. ORRR you are not getting a deal because the vast majority will buy the special edition because they think they are getting a deal...but then never play NFL Head Coach.

I really don't think the AUD dollar so much as crept to equal the USD as the USD has plummeted to almost equal the AUD.

Also, I meant the same price in the States...I'm also assuming this as I'm not buying MY PS3 until June...

Tue, 15 Apr 2008 21:18:04 MDT

The Six Axis controller is roughly $79.95 AUD which is about $74.31 USD.

Compare that to the Sixaxis being the SAME price as the new DS3...and Australia is still getting pwnd.

From coinmill.com

$55 US is approximately 5562 yen right now.

$55 US is approximately $59.20 AUD

And finally out of pointlessness

5562 yen is approximately $59.20 AUD

and to further the pointlessness

66500 Iraqi Dinar is approximately $59.20 AUD

I'm color blind and never really liked puzzle games anyways ;)

I don't think I"ve ever really had a problem except when maybe I'm playing on an older tv and the colors are all blurry anyways.

I miss food carts in Japan. I used to live in Iwakuni when I was stationed over there in the Marines. I think I'm going to try and get orders back over there in a couple years.

@TheEngineer: Rocking the Goggles:

Didn't the N64 have at least 2 sku's? The original N64 and then the Pokemon themed sku? I'm assuming if the Halo3 xbox counts...so does the Pokemon one.

starscream1101 commented on Rumor: Grand Theft Auto IV Achievements Leaked

Sat, 29 Mar 2008 23:25:55 MDT

The way Viral Achievements usually work (even though they glitch easily).

Devs will play the first couple days to get the Achievement going. After that, if you beat a person who beat a dev...you get the achievement...and it trees out. So eventually all you have to do, is beat a person who beat a person who beat a person etc etc that beat a dev.

starscream1101 commented on Get Prey For $4.95 This Weekend

Sat, 29 Mar 2008 20:43:12 MDT

I really enjoyed Prey. I picked it up for like $20 about a year ago used. I had just moved and didn't have an internet connection. It was worth the $20...and I would definitely buy it for $5.

starscream1101 commented on Diagnosing Completion Anxiety Disorder

Tue, 11 Mar 2008 17:47:04 MDT

I've taken a break from gaming due to just this thing. I probably only complete 2 or 3 games a year now. Last 06 I only finished Gears of War and Rainbow Six Vegas...probably bought like 20 games though. 07 beat Marvel Ultimate Alliance and Mass Effect and once again I probably bought like 20 games. I play them for a few weeks and get half way though them and trade them in for the next best game out.

I have since sold my xbox 360 and wii to take a break from the amount of cash flow I spew into games I don't beat.

On the flip side, I'm definitely buying the PS3 MGS4 bundle when it is launched. Hopefully, I can stick myself to only 2 games at a time this time around...not likely...but we'll see.

I think the biggest cause of this...is I was a huge xbox live fan. I have/had a core group of gamers that I would play with most nights. We would hop onto the newest and greatest Live title as they launched...Burnout:Revenge-->Gears of War-->Rainbow Six Vegas-->Call of Duty-->Halo 3-->etc etc etc (not in that order obviously)...now adays...great games are coming out too fast to keep up with them all! It's as simple as that.

Just my 2 cents...

My suggestion, just sell your stuff on Craigslist or Ebay. You'll get more money for it, especially if it's fairly new!
