If they are dicks, pay full price on the night and then buy it from elsewhere for cheaper next day then return a copy to EB.

Little Big Adventure (Twinsen) is 20 cents on Android at the moment... how's the port? Any good?

Yeah best to grab one on sale since they hit sale prices so regular, keep an eye on OzBargain for a 500GB one for $200ish.

who has Disney Infinity 3.0 Star Wars starter stuff on sale ATM? The cheapest in-store price seems to be around $80
Haha yeah, we were pretty good friends around 2008-09. It got too hard to compartmentalise his far right political views after a while so we drifted apart. I think I might slightly recognise your face from somewhere actually? Did you go to guilford?

Kmart I think? Was like $50 somewhere, I'll dig it up after dinner.

Target for $59. I'll swing by there after going to Big W to get Battlefront tomorrow. I will walk 200 metres to save $1. That's the original lyric of The Proclaimers' 500 miles.
That's because no one in Australia that didn't buy it digitally has it yet. It comes out in stores tomorrow. You should see a huge number of people online then...once people have picked up their games up from brick and mortar retailers.
EA has a fair amount of server infrastructure in Australia so they should have dedicated Australian servers.

hopefully they looked at how Titanfall's online code worked because that was glorious.

Well they did price match at the midnight launch, which was nice.
Some pretty epic cosplay here I have to say! The food was pretty good too. The free stuff (tshirts) had pretty much been picked clean by randoms off the street by 10pm, none of whom were getting the game lol. They grabbed the tshirts, stuffed their pockets full of lollies, and then left
The lightsabre fighting turned out to be a bunch of mostly fat dudes in matching tshirts twirling kids toys... which was kind of charming in its own way I guess

Random kid asked me to buy Black Ops 3 for him today. I promptly said no.

will gently cradle you as time slowly ticks away.
In 1998 I paid a homeless guy £10 to buy me Resident Evil 2.
In 2005 some random kid paid me £10 to buy him True Crime: NY and 50 Cent: Bulletproof.
It's funny how the world works like this.
This is the new "buy me beer" isn't it?
Still getting shoved on servers with 200 ping.

It's true, Tasmania is officially smaller than Geelong.

I never seen it called Sausage in Bread. Always Sausage Sizzle.
Maybe because the only place I see it is at Bunnings

Indeed. Then again I'm from NSW, which going by your map is where all of the normal people live...
Fredescu, are you in NSW as well?

it's not a hot dog since its not in a bread roll. wrong type of sausage if you want to be pedantic, which of course, I always do.
Sausage Sizzle is the event. Eating a sausage sizzle would involve eating a tent, a BBQ and some volunteers with coloured chalk.
But I think we do need a national convention for the correct name of the product of a sausage sizzle.
once again, Fred wins Ausgaf.

I do too. You're right about the roll, but I think the type of sausage is key to a hot dog.

If you say 'sausage sandwich', the first thing that comes to mind is:
Agree. But if it's a sausage in a roll ... what is it? Google Images seems to suggest it's still a 'sausage sandwich'.

Is it seriously just NSW for sausage sandwiches? Maybe I have my AusGAFers confused but I though Fredescu was from another state.

A sausage sandwich might be the correct term technically, but nobody actually calls it that. "let's hit up the sausage sizzle" is more likely the kind of thing that would be said. A new term needs to be created specifically for this purpose, because clearly we are lacking.
Probably uncommon enough not to have a proper name. I think the key to a sausage sizzle is for everything to be as cheap as possible, so while a hot dog style roll is probably a superior sausage vessel, you can knock out far more banga sangas for your buck with a few loaves of cheap white bread.
Yep.
Nope. Every definition I could find defined a sandwich as one or more slices of bread, not layers.
And a schooner is a boat, not a measurement for liquid.
Yeah, that's how I picture it, too.If you say 'sausage sandwich', the first thing that comes to mind is:

Stupid EB staff, just give people shirts when they buy the game, reward the actual customers lolWell they did price match at the midnight launch, which was nice.

Good man Mega. Kid should ask his parent or an older looking friend to do it.
"Sausage in bread" what the actual fuck Australia.
One solid price of bread as a sandwich? What the fuck is wrong with people lol
You go to the sausage sizzle to get a sausage/snag. I've never heard someone say 'sausage with bread' unless it's explaining to a kid what they are going to buy when the kid says "how do we hold the sausage, it'll be hot!??!!!!".
When we go down to Bunnings it's for a sausage. The bread is a delivery device not unlike a plastic plate at an outdoor gathering that is serving food. Ignore the bread, it's beneath naming. Call it an edible plate if you will.

You should open a German sausage cookery, Bobs Burgers style. Get those kids working early! Maybe the family could live and run the business in an RV, get around all the happening spots in Melbourne on the weekends.
You don't need a definition for common sense. If I feel like a Vegemite sandwich, but I would prefer a small one, I make it with one slice of bread and fold it over. The act of folding creates two pieces of bread out of one slice. The dictionary doesn't need to specify that, because it is self evident.
While I think this needlessly denigrates the important role of bread, I agree that simply referring to the sausage is understandable and elegant.
