Jesus, is that basically *the* go-to Ikea chair for driving games? I bought one specifically for that purpose because it's comfy and works with my wheelstand, after reading somewhere else they're perfect for it (probably on GAF).

nope but heard about it
Interested to see how he goes next round
You're taking our jerbs and our prizes! congrats
Yeah I've never really won anything
Different to account fees or international transaction fees? That does seem a bit odd.
But yeah right said fred, it's worth looking around and going to another mob. Commbank generic transaction and saving accounts are pretty shit these days.

Been doing that for years
Was fun trying to get the better head than each other.
Wait. I mean
Yeah they have been dicking me around on the $30 coupon they promised for charging me $15 postage. Was told to email them, then no response. Called their Indian call centre, stayed on hold for 45 minutes and was told it would be fixed up, no response. Bitched about them on twitter, got ONE reply saying they sent it, I replied saying there was no evidence of it and to send it again, no response. Their twitter today told me to be patient >.>

Guacamelee upgrade to the PS4 version is only $6! Not a bad deal.
I'm shocked they put it up on sale so early! Only 3 months!

They knew what they were doing.
I think they may have underestimated the ability of people to do maths and get angry.

The wife likes the cider. Little Creatures is probably the best beer pick IMO, but it's nothing outstanding.
I think everyone has one of those! Isn't it some sort of mandatory purchase once you hit a certain age?

Err, doing my best! Though the missus had to whisper all the answers in my ear. Not really up on my 70-80's pop music. The music I listen to is crap.

You should sell your PS4 then make a thread about it gaming side so I can get another dozen bans for thread whining under my belt.

How much do you want for it? I'll trade you for a Chromecast! That way you can still watch Netflix!
That sounds like entrapment.
But this is a private board with it's own rules.

I would subscribe to GAF+ for the *free entertainment that thread would give.
Hey guys I still like games and think Giant Bomb is a good place to watch videos and read about video games.
No Brisbane show
I don't think I could justify $19 for an IOS game. Always wanted to play the first one onps3 or 360 though. I have the first one on IOS already but, for free. But not $19.
I got my internet fixed yesterday afternoon and is GLORIOUS. Apparently iinet came out and identified it was a problem at the exchange. Telstra were on it in 20 minutes. WUT.

All the recent dick smith sales have ruined the second hand prices, for me anyway. It'd have to be $300ish if I was to buy one in the future. Your best bet would be throw it up on ebay/gumtree.

You don't LOVE games? Only LIKE them? FUCK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
lol
I'll admit I tend to enjoy buying and talking about and consuming video games media more than I do the act of playing. Or at least that seems to be true given the ratio of time spent.
There are some resources for finding people to game with nearby, depending on where you are. Is you're going to PAX, that as good a place as any.
The good roleplaying groups are always willing to take in new blood. New roleplayers are the best because they often have minimal or no preconceptions as to what they're supposed to be doing, which is great because you should be able to do pretty much whatever you want. New roleplayers also don't have some habits that the older gamers do.
Vampire can be a difficult game to find a suitable group for, some of them can be weirduncomfortably so. If you like the vibe of that game, I'd say have a look at the Kickstarter that just finished called Urban Shadows. It's a different approach to the same kind of world that is more conducive to producing the game at the table that Vampire tries to, but fails.
If I could free up some of my hobby time, I'd be able to prepare a game that I've said I'd run many times. Roleplaying and miniature related stuff that I'm currently participating in is eating up most of it, but that will ease with time.
If you're extending tabletop to include board games and even miniature games, there are a number of places where you can participate or find other people who would love to have you. Local hobby stores are a great place to start.
I'm beginning to read Dragon Kings by Timothy Brown. It's the spiritual successor to Dark Sun, which he also wrote, and after one chapter I want to know so much more about the world. There seems to be plenty of detail, but leaves enough gaps to be filled during play without being frustrating to read in the slightest. It only just came out in PDF with the hardcover to follow later. Worth every cent in my mind.
After a brief email exchange with Tim, you'd be supporting a good guy. He made a prog rock album to go along with it too! Unexpected, but still cool. Seriously, check it out.
As for World of Darkness, if you like the fiction in the sourcebooks then I'd recommend checking out a couple of the authors who now write their own fiction and/or create games. Chuck Wendig had a very unique style and I really dig what I have read of his so farit's easy to read and very entertaining; no one writes like Chuck. Reminds me I need to read Blue Blazes by him.
Greg Stolze is the other who has his own fiction, many of which his publishing model allows him to release as free ebooks with some of them for only a few dollars. Greg's games are pretty rad (to put it lightly) and one of his systems grew out of the work he did on the WoD linehe took the d10 pool and made it really sing. One Roll Engine is the system it became with Wild Talents being an actually good superhero game using it, and you should see the Progenitor sourcebook for it, OH MY! Alternate history that will blow you away!
One of his most well known games is Unknown Armies. Even if you don't care for the game (which is showing its age and I believe is getting a 2nd edition), get it for everything else that you'll love reading. The setting is beyond cool.

Used to bring down a couple of little creatures to the chefs at my old work whenever I was soloing an event. They loved it.

That was probably before Little Creatures became The Man. Now they're The Man. Screw The Man!
Fucking gaming forum is getting even more shithouse these days. Ask questions, get accused of attacking Sony. Never mind I have only ever owned 2 non Sony consoles. And one of those is a Sega, the other a N64. But yeah, I'm a fanboy attacking Sony.
Awesome.
Guess that's the last time I post there for a while.

Moved to a different desk because of wierd internal politics involving the team I am attached to.
Superior chairs, fuck yes.
Superior chairs, fuck yes.
The problem with all these deals is that despite living a content life without a 3DS, missing out on the KMart cheap ones and being denied a price match from Target or Big W, I now really want one.
It's not like I don't already love my Vita, I just want to play Pokemon now.
So now I'll be rocking up at OzComicCon and eyeing those too.

Kind of curious as to the kind of question.
Aero chairs I hope. really wish I could afford one of them for home.

Fair enough. All I'll say is that whilst I dislike default autorenewing, I don't think the disabling is especially hard to find in Sonys case.
Speaking of which...that reminds me I need to disable the autorenew in my Crunchyroll sub. Now maybe I did enable it, but new the new payment go through a few days ago did surprise me.
