Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Hyoyeon is better.

I'm sitting here judging you.
I'm trying to think of whether or not I have a dude equivalent, but no, I can't think of one, so I'll keep judging.

What the hell. I let my fiancée take the computer for the night to play Facebook games and come back to this? Where did AusGAF go? Well at least no one is talking about games.
Make sure to reformat his hard drive and install a copy of The Witcher 2 for him before he starts talking about how Half Life 3 should be on rails and they do away with the silly science stuff in favour of big explosions. *shiver*Shaneus said:Ugh, just saw that my brother was playing Fable 3 on Steam. I wish he would consult with me on buying shit
Yeah, you just need someone/anyone from within the group to invite you into the group. Salazar was kind enough to do so for me.shanshan310 said:
So about those games one should buy but never play, anyone have some recommendations on the current crop of steam daily deals? I already bought into Magicka, Hoard, and Darksiders. BC2 for $5 has turned the 'add to cart' button into a mouse magnet, but I'm hesitant to buy since I was going to wait for BF3 to jump back into FPS gaming.

What's everyones Steam damage today?
Think I'm just going to get AC1 and 2? Tropico 3 is tempting for that price (don't really know what it is like, any impressions), as is Torchlight...

Already have Defence Grid, Torchlight, K&L2, Brotherhood and Tropico 3. Nothing is at an impulse buy pricepoint. Especially after all the $3 games I've bought the last 3 days that I won't play again. MIGHT grab Flight Control for $1 but not sure.

After the last 3 days of scurrying around trying to obtain tickets the idea has lost its lustre. Especially since it is Monday, back to work day. By the time I get home at 5:30pm the last thing I will want is to try and get the ticket before I go to bed and the process starts all over again. Plus I already have 11.Omi said:$1.25!

Haha same... I think trying to get the Super Meat Boy one broke my back.
Fucking dark world.

Note to other SteamAusGAFfers: Transformers War For Cybertron is on sale for $7 today but for reasons unknown it's COMPLETELY unavailable on the Australian Steam store... so, if you want it, ask in the gifting thread.
That's about the only game that's come close to interesting me that's had a daily sale.

Don't usually post in here, but I needed somewhere to vent.
AC: Brotherhood (Got AC2 just after exams and loved it. Been wanting to get this ever since I finished 2, but as a jobless uni student, couldn't stomach the full price.)
Dragon Age: Origins (I've seen people mention it's ~$10, but it was 17 for me. Dunno how Steam really works, but've been meaning to check it out.)
Torchlight (2.99, so why not?)
I got Bad Company 2 yesterday, as well, so my funds (or lack thereof) is kinda hurting. :\
Steam gifting thread. You can check the US prices (and availability, in the case of Transformers) at http://store.steampowered.com/?cc=us and if there's something you like, just ask nicely in the gifting thread. As long as you have Paypal and are generous to sling a few extra dollars to whoever's doing you the favour, you'll live a long and prosperous lifeshiwasu said:
Thanks Shaneus. I've always found PayPal a bit stingy with their rates, so I didn't think it was worth the trouble this time around. If the price discrepancy gets any larger on something that catches my eye, I'll definitely look into the thread. Coming from the App Store, I've actually been pleasantly surprised at the parity between the two stores on most items, hehe.
Coming from the App Store, I've actually been pleasantly surprised at the parity between the two stores on most items, hehe.I see your point (probably could've gotten an extra game going through the gifting thread. ^^'). Got a bit burned by an international transaction a couple of months ago through PayPal, so I've been a bit hesitant to use it (been using my debit card for Steam transactions and I've been pretty happy with how close their rate is to the actual rate, comparatively).

Well that's just patently incorrect. They can fix anything

charged with manslaughter? are you fucking kidding me
When i did legal studies the definition of murder was if there was a severe possibility that by the actions of the defendant that the victim would die, it was murder
if you stab someone in the street, i'd say you know, thats murder if the person dies. Murder is intent, you had intent when stabbing them. Whether you wanted them to die or not is moot at that point.
fucking ridiculous

When I was a kid and we threw a water bomb at someone's house, if we saw any one coming we'd leg it as fast as we could and start crapping our pants. Stabbing them? Ugh. I can picture that exact group of kids, too. I guarantee one of them has a rats tail. GUARANTEE.
Shaneus said:Was that through here? I've had nothing but good luck with the people I've dealt with. It's usually the same 5-10 who do the buying so just keep your eyes out for them and you should be apples
Noo, I'm sure the people here are fine folk. I was sorting out accommodation for my trip to Tokyo, and I had to pay for it by a certain date. They made me pay through PayPal in Yen, so I was waiting for the rate to prop back up. I did, but to my surprise (it was my first and only sizable international transaction), PayPal's rate wasn't really close to the actual rate. I understand it's one of the ways they make their money, but considering they were already charging me a 2.5% transaction fee, it left a bitter taste in my mouth. I was naive to how it all worked (and still am), so I've been wary to use it. Maybe my debit card does something similar, but it's pretty negligible with the comparatively lower amounts I'm using it with.
Anybody know any good places I should hit up while I'm there, btw? ^^'
