Well, put my preorder money down to pick up Lollipop Chainsaw at JB tomorrow. An extra $29 or so to ensure I get it on the day and get some bonus skins. Sadly, EB got the awesome bonus of the boyfriend's severed head on a keychain, but there you go (unless someone wants to swapsies with the iPhone cover? It's totally masculine and everything.)
Same with Platinum as well, I think (can you imagine Vanquish at 1080p 60fps? Damn)
PS. Sign me up, Holy. Fridays are perfect pour moi, so I'll definitely be there (unless something crops up... but that's unlikely).
None of Grasshopper's games have ever come to PC

I will be in Melbourne that weekend, getting in on the Thursday, for Oz Comic-Con!
Was planning on heading to the Mana Bar with some mates.
Thoughts?

I may be able to go on the 29th (was sure I suggested that day last week). Should go to Cookie to make cookie feel welcome. Or bad for the inevitable bail.
Or maybe since there will be some foreigners, somewhere Melbourne like 1806, Chez Regine, Red Hummingbird, Longrain, Gin Palace, Lily Black's or Madame Brussels.
Edit: Actually, half those places aren't open til later are they? Beer Deluxe is always convenient due to proximity to Flinders St; easy for foreigners.

also the question is: do we want fancy beer, or cheap beer. Who wants to get drunk with aon? he sounds british.

lol, he doesn't sound british! Cheaper is better for an unemployed student such as myself, but I'm not really fussed. I don't know Melbourne places! Except Madame Brussels, which was cool.
Crusader Kings II update.
So I started in Thomond. Had a De Jure claim on Desmond. Raised my armies and went. Won the battle. After the battle I'm in Desmond and the rest of their army is sitting outside my city in Thomond (annoying). I figure mine is bigger so my siege will win first. Turns out I needed an army about twice as big as what I had to successfully siege it.
I go back to Thomond to wipe out the rest of the army, which runs to another county. I chased them halfway across Ireland because every time I moved my army they'd move there's.
Eventually I got them into battle and wiped them all out (took about 5 battles to wipe out them all). As soon as the last battle ended, they INSTANTLY raised another full-size army back in Desmond.
So yeah I've got no fucking idea. I don't know how to make more money. I don't know how to raise bigger armies. Heaps good at playing matchmaker though. Pretty sure this is a dating sim in disguise.
Time to hit up the beginner's guide I guess.

Jugs are $15 now? Last I remember we got $10 jugs at our local!
I'm just trolling Omi. I hope he doesn't hold it against me when I inevitably come begging for help with CK2.
Worth it.

Visiting my dear old grandma. And Melbgaf.
BrisGAF still hasn't worked out a place or time or complete list of people has it?
Was set to be on 3 July. Someone in the know of good pubs take a shot at picking a place. I will be staying up on the Gold Coast, so I'd prefer anywhere easily accessible by public transport.
Who was going again?

That was a melbourne tax. I don't go to too many places in melb so I don't know where to get cheap jugs yet.

Off the top of my head:
Kritz
Clipper
Shanshan
Salazar
Marsh
Gazunta
Fallbackpants?
I guess it depends on what you wanna do. The valley has the mana bar, and korean bbq, city has the baverian beer garden, west end is full of hipster bars. Im not very knowledgable so perhaps someone else should decide.

Go somewhere that has both and I'm set. Maybe European Bier Cafe? It's kind of middle of the road I guess?Therefore cods I hope you're ok with jugs of carlton draught for $15! Rather than your usual $10 a beer

You're just jealous you don't have a chauffeur who will drive you home after a bunch of booze.

I have officially drank 15L of Orange Juice in the last 2 days. I'm starting to look like the chicks at McDonald's drive-thru.
Already making a trip to Geelong AND Ballarat this weekend and then the trip to Melbourne the following weekend for the Matilda Bay tour (and random bar crawling until 1am) so I don't think I can afford another 7 hour round trip on the train!
If you want to come along on the brewery tour or meet us at a pub along the way feel free! I'll PM you my phone number and anyone else who is interested. Brewery tour is free and starts at 3pm I think.
I assume you found a cheap deal, gimme gimme gimme!
Okay that does sound like the kind of strange awesome that this generation has been missing. Any idea when we will see a release in the UK region?

I remember a mate of mine buy a jug, the bartender said it'd be $12, my mate turned around and walked out. Now $12 would be a sweet deal. Goddamn kids on my lawn etc
I forgot about this. Put me in the maybe basket.
West End does have Archive Bar which is awesome for beers. But West End is a pain in the arse for public transport. The Valley would probably be best for Kritz seeing the train station is right near everything.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Choc, are you playing a localised copy of Tokyo Jungle, or the Japanese version? If the latter, does it have English text options?

What do the chicks at maccas drive thru look like?

Like Rep.
Beardy Rep ?

game is VERY playable once you know what you need to do. Happy to help if you can't wait and import it.

Its the hippy/hipster area now. Plenty of trendy bars and restaurants there now. There is still a dirty seedy side in parts (specifically the non-done up half of the Boundary) but it's pretty nice mostly.
ARCHER! ABC2! ARCHER!! RIGHT NOW!
