I just bought Trackmania 2 for $2.50.

There was some Lynx package at Woolies with a free PC game download from Ubisoft. You get a choice of six games but it didn't say which six and I had no internet reception from there, but I figured I would take a punt. The six games are:

Trackmania 2 Canyon
Rayman Origins
The Adventures of Tin Tin
Call of Juarez: The Cartel
Clash of Heroes
Shoot Many Robots

Also shower gel.

Fuck, BRB. That's cheap as hell for Trackmania (I think) and Rayman Origins. When you say you get a choice, you can actually choose, or is it random? Edit: I guess random. My reading comprehension is up the shitter tonight.

Is the gel a physical copy or download code?

More importantly, Steam redeemable?

You need something far stronger than a Lynx gel to get that fucking stench off of you, tiger. Hell, even this would be an improvement.

A: Trackmania 2 was awful and terrible and has like 4 people still playing it all Nadeo employees who simply lament their wasted efforts. Also they lament in french which always makes lamentations worse. Sacre blue!

B:

So after actually getting my hands on an ipad...I kinda want one now. I'm not even sure what for but I just want it. I crave new technology and game consoles aren't giving it to me! I had no idea there was an ipad 4. They pump those out fast. I thought 3 was the latest. Plus they're saying 5 is rumoured to be March this year? Releasing that fast always makes me just want to wait for the newer one. What would be the best place to buy an ipad anyway?

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Get it?

I am infering you are a sheep or other herd type mammal.

When you say you get a choice, you can actually choose, or is it random?

You get a choice. You put the thing in your cart and apply the code which takes it down to zero.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Actually I could regift the shower gel at Christmas so that works out okay in the end!

Hey, I'd still use it more than a Wii U.

It comes with a fake plastic loofah thing too.

Sweet, birthday present for the little guy all sorted!

Yeah, I have no idea why it dropped off the map so damn quickly. It was hyped up no end, then they released Canyon... I think they were going to release something else, but no idea what happened after that.

And I think I just realised that I was thinking of that new Rayman game, but that's not Origins... i think that's Legends.

It comes with a fake plastic loofah thing too.

Isn't Fake Plastic Loofah a Radiohead song?

 

[reptilescorpio]

I think Choc is in the Shootmania Beta, or did that already come out?

 

[Shaneus]

I think Choc is just "mania".

[Shaneus]

I couldn't find one at my local

try before 1am next time :\

 

[Shaneus]

What the hell, AusGAF? No posts since 1:30am last night?

Fucking hell.


So anyway, this is a bit insane, all of you should read it.

 

[Planet_JASE]

Doubt it. Would have to be Uplay. Trackmania 2 isn't on Steam anyway.

I was talking about the gel

You need something far stronger than a Lynx gel to get that fucking stench off of you, tiger. Hell, even this would be an improvement.

I usually just roll around in the faeces of my prey...

If you're in here, markot, could you tell me the biggest lie that you can come up with?

 

[markot]

I think Jews are great and Hitler was wrong to try and kill them all.

Oh dear...

markot learned the valuable lesson of "the only way to win is to not play the game."

 

[Yagharek]

Markot doesn't learn lessons

 

[Planet_JASE]

But the win still counts, right?

 

[reptilescorpio]

Hmm. Favourite music of the year. Well, JPlay has a list of the 100 most played songs on Triple J this year which is pretty good.

Best albums off the top of my head will include Grimes & Cloud Nothings.

Cloud Nothings wins easily. Played it all year long and I'm still not sick of it.

Sounds safe!

There are like 5 different ways to turn off autorenew.
Mine was off automatically, not sure if it being ON is a new thing for new subscribers.

At least it only does 3 months rather than a full year!

He probably also plays with himself a lot. WarGames, in that aspect, may be his greatest teacher.

It's been closed. I was hoping for an update.

internet sure is great!

why did he get banned

 

[Lafiel]

why did he get banned

Thread went completely out-of-hand - Detective=GAF posted way too much personal info. To the point where the girls facebook page got posted, and they all gathered it based on the info he posted in the thread to begin with..

So yeah, he kind of deserved it. I feel bad for the girl in hindsight. Guy seems like a huge douchebag.

 

[markot]

Why'd he get banned and not the douches in the thread?

 

[Lafiel]

Why'd he get banned and not the douches in the thread?

Actually some of them already did.

 

[BananaArnie]

Why'd he get banned and not the douches in the thread?

yeah exactly
why didnt the dicks posting her fb page get banned
cant say i like the idea of getting banned because i told you my name and now you posted my life history on the internet
kinda fucked
i always thought bans on gaf were messed up

 

[markot]

Why didn't mandrake get banned?

 

[Yagharek]

I recall detective gaf being banned ages ago

 

[Box of Bunnies]

i always thought bans on gaf were messed up

Who is John Galt Choc?

 

[reptilescorpio]

Why didn't mandrake get banned?

Why would he be banned?

 

[Ventron]

So, how's Aussie weather recently? Sill less tolerable than the 0 deg. C in this part of the world?

 

[pieatorium]

it's hot

 

[reptilescorpio]

Seriously Microsoft what the fuck?

Every week or so they prompt me to ask if my email address is still correct and then make me set up another source of contact! So once a week or so I have to wait for a phone call with a code to enter into the Xbox just so I can log into my Live enabled account.

What the fuck.

Is this because I lapsed into Silver membership?

Is this cost effective?

To receive a phone call giving me a code number every week or so?

Seriously. Fucking retarded system.

 

[Yagharek]

You need the ok from an ms rep to play xbox live? And I thought Nintendo banning nnids for kids using them was inane.

 

[reptilescorpio]

I think if I give them 4 email addresses I don't need to wait for a phone call or sms. I can't keep track of which ones I gave them and it takes bloody forever to type them out with a controller.

 

[Yagharek]

Sounds reasonable.

One month free PS+ for people who don't already have a subscription

List of games for this month, everyone should play Vanquish.

 

[markot]

I can't even change the region of my account... So I can't use any of there services that cost money.

 

[Fogz]

43 deg C over this weekend, which is actually an improvement on the 45 they were predicting

 

[Shaneus]

Do you know when the "month" clicks over? I know Pinball Arcade is supposed to be a freebie, but no idea when.

PS. Nice taste in games, my friend.

 

[Jintor]

RAIN! RAIN! WATER FALLING FROM THE SKY! IT'S A MIRACLE!

I had PS+ for three months and from what I remember it wasn't updated at the start of each month, it's different each time.

P.S.S. Best $15 I ever spent, still haven't finished the game on God Hard though.

RAIN! RAIN! WATER FALLING FROM THE SKY! IT'S A MIRACLE!

I bless the rains down in Australia.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Okay this dude is cool

Also Shaneus if you jump onto the PSBlog for Europe or look at the free items on the PSN it will say when they go back to paid content if you don't "buy" them before then.

 

[Yagharek]

Just back on this ... why did the problem arise in the first place? Seems incredibly stupid to have this as the workaround.
