Random thing:
Anyone want a copy of Battlefield 1943 for XBLA? I've had this code for it for like 7 weeks now just sitting on my desk. Post here, PM me, or IM me if you want it.

I'll decide who will get it (if, ya know, if more than one even asks) later (like, some time tomorrow) on a combination of random selection, quickness to asking, or whoever I like best.

Only thing I ask is that you actually want to play it. I'm gonna hate you if you play it for like 1 hour and never touch it again.

Edit: Okay, I want a few more people to ask before I decide, cause I like being in power (muwahahaha). Choosing between two people isn't any fun. :P

***Rogue Nine*** · 10-27-2009, 01:32 AM

I'll take it if no one else will.

DarthDie · 10-27-2009, 04:03 AM

I'll take it, Rogue Nine told me via PM he doesn't want it

:P

Dath Maximus · 10-27-2009, 06:18 PM

give it to me, ill give it to niner

**swphreak** · 10-27-2009, 08:52 PM

Speaking of giving away free stuff, I think I still have an extra copy of Half-Life 2 left to gift on Steam. If anyone wants it PM me an email to send it to.

**acdcfanbill** · 10-27-2009, 09:49 PM

GIMME THE PRIZE! Actually don't as I don't have an xbox :P

**IG-64** · 11-07-2009, 03:26 AM

Just pre-ordered the 4-pack for Left 4 Dead 2. One for me, my brother, my sister, and Bongo.

BongoBob · 11-07-2009, 04:36 AM

TiE23 · 11-09-2009, 01:50 AM

Behind schedule.

Whoops, time has passed me and I haven't finished the last three levels yet after 5+ days of down-time. Very good game and undoubtedly the best graphics. Ever. Too much (as I tirelessly report) Battlefield Bad Company multiplayer to go back.

Very fun stuff. The new weapons and vehicles and the parachute really re-fresh the entire game. Took a few notes from Saints Row 2 and decided to liven Liberty City a little. If you thought Brucie was Alpha, wait until you meet his older brother Mori, he's like Alpha times Ten.

&

Also, I pre-ordered Battlefield Bad Company 2 twice. First for 360, then for PS3 to get into the beta that's coming out on the 19th just for PS3. Though at the moment I'm sorta paranoid that I'm not going to get my code, so I may be pre-ordering it again. I can always get the money back, of course.

BongoBob · 11-10-2009, 03:43 AM

Alright. As you're all probably well aware, I am currently Jobless (no this unfortunately is not a post about me getting a job). And you're also probably aware that I am a huge CoD4 nut. So not having a job means not having money, and not having money meant I was unable to pre-order Modern Warfare 2.

Well, yesterday, Josh finally got off his ass and pre-ordered it from the Gamestop by my house so he could pick it up at midnight. We got there around like 9:40PM, and were the 3rd and 4th people there. Come around 11:55, this dude comes up to the guy in front of me and says "I'll buy your spot in line." He responds, saying he was fine where he was at. Then he asked Josh, who said no thanks as well. Then he asked me. I thought he was joking so I said "Sure, how much?" He then proceeded to pull out his wallet and hand me 50 f***ing dollars.

That's right, the kid that didn't have the money to pre-order MW2 who only went to the midnight launch cause he had nothing else to do came home with a copy of MW2.

I have a guardian angel, and apparently he's a bald latino with gauges.

Mike Windu · 11-10-2009, 04:27 AM

Bongo, that money was hot... good thing you got rid of it.

The only very good thing that I've gotten recently is an unfinished 10 page international studies paper, and an unfinished 5 page international studies paper... whoops. ;D

oh, and acceptance into a study abroad program!

woooooooooooooo

Congrats on the study abroad thing man

And yes, it probably was, however I don't give a f*** because it got me MW2

Also, MW2:

spoiler:
Campaign: Extremely short (took me about 4 hours on easy), they pull a Halo 2 ending (AKA No resolution BUT WE'LL BE MAKING A SEQUEL IN 4 YEARS), however it was insanely intense and fun.

TiE23 · 11-11-2009, 12:31 AM

Just reading your story made my night, Bongo. That was ****ing awesome.

I got a code for the BFBC2 beta on PS3 through IGN today. Applied for a code and got in... and it was the 6th code I've sought out. Two pre-orders at Gamestop (I'll get them refunded) and three applications for a drawing on the official Battlefield site. So, if I get more, I'll just cruise around some BFBC2 forums looking for people crying about not having a code and give them a little anonymous present.

BongoBob · 11-14-2009, 02:12 AM

I checked these out from the library a few weeks ago, however, I've honestly only listened to Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence because it's just that damn good.

I do that with every game. I don't initially want a challenge, I want fun.

The next night I beat it on Veteran, it only took me around 6-7 hours though.

Make sure to check out Images and Words and Scenes From A Memory if you havent yet.

Got tickets to see Motörhead in Cambridge on the 23rd, and Lifelover+Urfaust in Oslo on the 28th.

Darth Avlectus · 11-15-2009, 09:11 PM

^^^Motorhead? I'm envious! Saw them in Reno, NV once, or it could have been Sacramento CA.

**IG-64** · 11-15-2009, 10:25 PM

Well, despite going to my uncle's viewing today (funeral's tomorrow) for 3 hours, I did get something good out of my birthday today. My uncle from the other side of the family has a relative who got a guitar and decided they didn't want it, so today my uncle gave it to me for my birthday, since he knew I wanted one.

It's a Peavey standard guitar, and it's really nice.

I thought I might as well upgrade from all the GH and RB I've been doing.

This is a very, very good thing.

Yeah, I've seen them once before in my hometown, but will undoubtedly be cool to see them again.

Yeah, it was pretty damn awesome. Doctor Who turned to the dark side. Can't wait for the Christmas episode.

A couple of things arrived in the post today (and yes, Star Trek Blu-ray on a 40inch TV with Surround Sound = nerdgasm)...

TiE23 · 11-18-2009, 12:21 AM

I don't know much about comics, but I can say with some authority that in that cover some s**t got f**ked up.

Dath Maximus · 11-18-2009, 01:50 PM

**leXX** · 11-18-2009, 01:51 PM

Damn you.

Pho3nix · 11-28-2009, 03:57 PM

Couldn't wait 'till Christmas for this one

**swphreak** · 11-28-2009, 04:03 PM

I broke down and bought a Bluray player that plays games.

And grabbed this for now.

I also grabbed a bunch of Blurays for 8 bucks each off amazon.

**Samuel Dravis** · 11-29-2009, 01:00 AM

I found it on Dell.com for only $30 and had to pick it up.

Anthony · 11-29-2009, 12:18 PM

My gf actually got this for my birthday which is freaking awesome, its a really great point and shoot camera

I got this off a friend for 100 bucks, he didnt want it anymore (!) so now I have an ultra phone which I dont really use for a phone but more for messing around on the thing

EDIT: I just realized I'm a total sony whore... Sony laptop, sony camera, sony phone, ps3, freaking sony USB memory stick, and loads of old sony things

Random remark: Our family has always been a Sony whore in one area: the living room entertainment center (you know, TV, CD, etc). We have a Sony HDTV, Sony 5 disc CD player, Sony "receiver", Sony DVD... and we used to always have Sony VCRs and a Sony tape-deck (long time ago).

Basically, for the last 10+ years, our living room has had a wall of black plastic and Sony logos in it. The PS3 Slim I bought a bit ago may go into that collection some day, too. We don't have Blu-ray anything except for that.

Oh, and on a tangent of a random remark:

On Thanksgiving I spent some time showing my uncle (and coincidentally my aunt at one point) what games really looked like (not just the crap that's on the Wii). So I played some Uncharted 2. Did some of the train sequence, did the walk-through of the mountain village, fought the helicopter in the city, did the falling building section, did the starting train scene, showed him the whole "some parts of his shirt get wet!" thing. And he lol'd hard when I switched to Doughnut Drake and did some high-adrenaline action.

Tangent again:

We spent like an hour playing Nerf gun war in our house. It was stupid and random, but really fun... :V

Rogue15 · 12-02-2009, 07:24 PM

finally decided to get a contract cellphone after dealing with gophone bs.

my mom informed me of a great deal on at&t's site last night. i ended up getting a sony ericcson c905 for free with 2 year contract, activation-fee waived, and free overnight shipping...the site said i saved $699.99...the phone should be here by tomorrow! i can't wait!

if she's over 18 you should take that as a hint she wants you to take sexy pictures of her and post them on the internet

TiE23 · 12-02-2009, 11:08 PM

Agreed, and I'll judge the quality of said photos... you know, count pixels and stuff.

Rogue15 · 12-03-2009, 08:48 PM

haha nice camera is that the w220?

BongoBob · 12-04-2009, 02:28 AM

Saw The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day today with a few friends. Very entertaining movie.
