Tomato sauce potato chips = best potato chips.
Yes. I remember when they stopped selling them last time and the only ones remotely close were Samboy "Explosive Tomato" or whatever they were. Just terrible. I bought a large bag and ended up shovelling them into my face while crying bitter tears that my favourite flavour had left this mortal coil.

Impressive. How much did that cost?

Also, yeah tomato sauce chips are pretty nice, guys.

It used to be that way for the entire finals series, but I think they instituted overtime for the other finals a few years back. Unless they also changed something in the last few years, the Grand Final should still be a case of coming back next week and starting from scratch until a result is found.
There's been extra time in the non GF finals matches since the start of the 90s.

The GF is still replayed the following week if it's a draw.

Hey Gaz are you guys doing a preload for Blade Kitten?
I have no idea. I'll check now. Not too long to go anyway :)

I had a chance to talk to Yug yesterday about the AusGAF meetup - c'mon, we need to do it soon! :)
before MegaDrive takes all our burger vouchers

Hey, what's this I've been reading about having to wait an additional 3 days to activate F1 2010? I've preloaded the thing so how come I can't play it with everyone else?

Bastards.

Also got F1 gifted to me this morning by a fellow gaffer.

Maybe a friday night F1 crash into everyone night? Or is it out saturday our time. I can't count.

Anyone hear anything about Dead Rising 2 on sale early? I don't even know why I'm asking... Not like I can play it until the weekend anyway.

Mad Props Hamchan. I was never able to wrap my head around Drop7, despite pouring some real time into it. I have to imagine it's pretty compet up the high end.

My Move is finally on my way to me from America, along with Metroid: Other M. Funny thing is that shortly after they arrive, I'll be going on a trip to the States, but I should have about half a week to a week to test it before I go. I also have a second controller inbound from ozgameshop and RE5 Gold arrived from zavvi the other day, so I'll be testing that out too.

proof F1 2010 is hot

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3OWljOroD4&fmt=22


dvdorchard.com.au has it in stock

any other stores reporting in stock today? It apparently IS NOT street dated in Australia

In stock gamesmarket.com.au

When they have it, JB Syd City usually does...... might swing by
Bullshit it's not street dated. If it wasn't, wouldn't Steam allow activation? Anyway, this was posted in the official thread:
FORMULA ONE™ fans can today see F1 2010, the official game of the 2010 FIA FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP™, in action with the release of the first gameplay preview video, now showing at www.formula1-game.com. F1 2010 will be released on September 22nd in North America, September 23rd across EPAC territories with a UK street date of September 24th for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft®, PlayStation®3 computer entertainment system and PC Games For Windows®.
(don't mind me, I'm just pissed that we have to wait an extra day or two before we can play it)

Steam distribution is UK street date. Therefore its using the UK Street Date (one reason it doesn't unlock until weekend).

I often get games early, or on the US release dates so I was going to open up Steam at work quickly to check how much longer the unlock is for me.

Problem is I changed my Steam password a couple weeks back to some string of characters. I wrote it down but forgot it, and the paper with the password on it is sitting in my room at home.

My Steam account is so secure even I can't access it -_-
 
If anyone is looking for a local copy of Civ V Collectors Edition ebgames.com.au have put it back up for preorder... Which is lucky for me cos I tried to order one last week and it wasn't available :D

As much as I'm looking forward to playing it I'm also dreading the inevitable fucked up sleep patterns its going to bring

The exchange rate (AUD-USD) is looking pretty hot right now, hovering just below 95c. The last time it was this good was July '08, when it reached 98c - and then crashed to 60c, taking about a year to get back up again.

Buy!

Outlook seems to be it'll stay high through the rest of the year, so no rush.
