If I suffer a momentary lapse of resolve and purchase GTA5 tomorrow, I will be procuring it for the Sony Personal Computer Entertainment System.

Imma cheevo whore. I don't multiplay anyway. Eh.
PS3
PSN is jambowned
Whoopi was a huge fan of Star Trek and wanted to be on the show. The producers said they couldn't add another main character to the show and she said she'd be fine sweeping the floors or tending a bar, so they made Ten Forward.
Also, you should really check out TNG on Blu-ray, it looks amazing.

Is her character's name Ten Forward?

PS3 for me too.
I'm itching to buy it off the US psn store but it's so much better to have the physical disc that I can sell on gumtree after completing the game. Don't see myself playing the story more than once, and gta mp isn't something that will keep me hooked for too long.

Today's Breaking Bad episode should be mind blowing.
Nope, it's Guinan. The bar she runs is called Ten Forward (due to being on Deck 10 in the Forward section of the ship).
Yeah I know, it's just that last weeks ep ended on a huge cliffhanger and anything small could spoil the outcome.
Here's my idea for the final scene of BB:
Everyone is lying dead on the ground after a mass shootout. We see a lone figure hobble over to Walts body. A hand reaches down and picks up the Heisenberg hat. It's Walt Jr. He puts the hat on his head, turns to the camera and gives an evil grin. Roll credits.

GTA preordered from dse this morning. $69 was too good to pass up.
We have been spoiler tagging anything, well atleast I have been.
PSA: NO TALK ABOUT BREAKING BAD TODAY PLEASE

That's worse than Hitler.
I was going to do that but it was a bit of of the way. Also, this way (if I understand Sony's system/policy correctly), I will be able to install it on 2 x PS3's and my gf and I can play it at the same time, so it's basically 2for1
Usually you can't play the same game at the same time. You used to be able to play 5 at once but even then some big games (like Gran Turismo) would prevent more than once person playing it at a time and now that they've dropped the limit to two I don't think any games work at the same time. Unless you play offline maybe...

Is this in-store only or something? Their website is showing $88 (and the links are broken). Pre-order only or pickup on the day (assuming there are any in stock)?

Instore only, ends today though. They match your $10 preorder, and they are selling it for $79 tomorrow so will come down to $69 total.
Hmmm reading conflicting information about this. Seems as long as my master account is registered on both PS3's and we don't use the same account we can both play at the same time. Not the end of the world if we can't but handy if we can.
agreed
no one mention anything. not even an "omg that bb was crazy", nothing!
spoiler it if you have to comment on it before later tonight
please
then yells out TIMMY
I'm getting it on PS3
PSN ID is StackboyRoyale
We should start an Ausgaf Rockstar Crew!!
Only thing stopping me from getting Netflix is the downloads. I spoke to Lexi about it and it seems excessive in terms of data, especially when you are sharing with housemates.
Did anyone end up watching that show I posted, The Genius?
If not, you totally should. I just finished watching the whole series and it was so good. Generally, I find reality shows tacky and unappealing, but this was just on a whole other level. You're not watching to see the misery of one of the participants or to see that person you don't like get voted off, because it's not like that and it doesn't work that way. Intelligence, tactics and strategy are the main components that comprise this show.
It was also impressive that there was a somewhat strong audience participation factor too. No ringing up for your favourite, but in a way you could test your brain to find a solution or see motives and intent of the players before they're revealed. The level of enjoyment and entertainment found in this show rivals many others, and I do mean non-reality shows.
If it entices anyone to watch it, one of the participants was a competitive StarCraft pro by the name of YellOw (who had a long-standing rivalry with BoxeR). There's also a couple of kpop singers, among others, including a member of MENSA. I found all of them, bar one, very likable and incredibly interesting to watch. The level of intellect and cunning on display is a refreshing change and I'm glad that it is presented as more entertaining than plonking numb-skulls in front of a camera.
Essentially, as long as you have nothing against subtitles, check it out.

Bitcoins? Aren't they primarily used to purchase drugs and pay hitmen via the underweb? What the fuck are you up to?Hey does anyone know a place to buy Bitcoins in Australia? I used to use Omnicoins but they've closed down.
Ah, that's less weird. Thanks, Clipper.
I just like a really complicated way of paying for beers when I go drinking!
http://www.zdnet.com/au/aussies-start-paying-for-beers-in-bitcoin-7000020692/
But in all seriousness, it's for buying drugs from the underweb.
I assume it will be easier to set up NFC bitcoin payments on a phone than it is to set it up to bank accounts.

Rainbox 6 Vegas 1 is the FREE Xbox Live GOLD game of the fortnight. I didn't like it but seems everyone else did.
Nah around 70k, don't get much time to play games these days
Yep but the real pain in the arse comes from just getting the coins into your wallet more so than finding a way to spend them.
I found this site which has the exact same payment method as Omnicoins.
https://www.spendbitcoins.com/buy/
I place the order on their website and then go to a bank and make a direct deposit into their account (gotta be within 4 hours though) and then send them the receipt and then they put the coins into my wallet. Hopefully they're legit.

Hmmmmmm... that seems... strange. I can't read the full story because my work has forbidden access due to the word bitcoin, so I'm just going to assume they have a good reason to accept a fairly volatile ether-currency.
Let us know if the
Here's the whole story, it sounds a bit of a marketing gimmick to me:
I only stumbled across the article this morning while searching google for bitcoin sellers in Aus. I've only ever seen Bitcoins go steadily up though so if the pub owner is smart and hangs onto everything he gets there's a chance it could be worth a lot more in the future.

Thanks for the reminder. I've been watching a couple Korean variety shows and this seems interesting, so I'll check it out sometime.Did anyone end up watching that show I posted, The Genius?

Watched the first ep and yeah it's pretty awesome. I really enjoy these Korean variety shows where people betray each other and strategize, very entertaining.
I found this article really helpful in understanding how bitcoins work.

Sounds like eventually, the plug will be pulled on them.

Yeah as production slows, the value will stop increasing and one day may even start sliding but it isn't gonna happen anytime soon, it isn't gonna happen quickly and I can't see any reason not to use them now.

Yep it will work this way.

I just called up DSE about this, he didn't know anything about it. Said its $79. Is this deal advertised anywhere, I'm going there right now?
