Oh, so that's where this strip came from.
I thought someone went to the effort of drawing it specifically. It's still great and apt.

Okay.

Oh no, I believe someone found that sequence and edited the text to suit their purpose. Still doesn't make it any less great.
What have you done?!
Right before I was going to go to bed too, now I can't because this is hilarious.

How else can they justify the $109 price tag?

This one made me laugh more than it should have.

I liked this reflection from Jim Sterling on GTA5.
Feels like coming home mang.
Steamkeys of Bioshock Infinite & Mafia 2 for $11 total.
Awesome, thanks dude!
Grand Theft Auto V is both a reflective and deflective game, diving into the heart of the GTA series with more than a few subtle things to say about itself.
Michael is tired, and old, and wants to change, but he can't, and eventually he grows to accept and even enjoy that.
Franklin is smarter than his surroundings, dreaming big but held back by old fashioned ideas.
Trevor is hilarious, surprising, and a disgusting degenerate.
All three characters, in their respective ways, feel representative of the Grand Theft Auto series as a whole, and contribute to making GTA V what it is -- the ultimate culmination of Rockstar's beloved and despised series. Personally, I think that's a fine thing to be.

I did as well yesterday. Though it didn't have your mandatory banner above it.

I didn't make it to a midnight release, today is going to be a long day.
The last week or so has been the most unproductive week ever for me with all my thoughts turning quickly to GTA. Everything is GTA.

All Dick Smith stores were notified that ALL GTA5 preorders would be $70, didn't even have to show them the tweet!

Target or Big W. Target have it for $79 and Big W for $78.
I'm planning on getting it at Target and I'm wanting to know if they're stocking the game guide. Anybody already picked it up from Target that can confirm this? I'm trying to avoid a phone call as talking to Target employees about video games is a pain in the ass.

Only 8 hours till my broken US gta5 download.

Yeah was a painless experience. They even had the blimp codes ready.
reptilescorpio
Member
Ah didn't even know they had any lol
Pretty sure it's just a cosmetic skin for the blimp anyway. Not worth me running back there.
Or maybe I will >.>

Yeah I wasn't bothered either way. I'd probably just give them a call, def not worth driving back for.
reptilescorpio
Member
Yeah gave them a call then, they said they only got sent the games, no stack of codes. Eh. If I'm out by EB this week I'll stop past and see if they have any extras.

If anyone who hasn't played both of these games do this, you are silly people. Mafia 2 was in my top 10 of the year I played it and Bioshock is easily the most interesting bioshock to me and the art style is gorgeous.

Yes. Try to get the GioTeck branded ones - inexpensive, very long lasting battery, comfortable and decent sound quality.

According to OZB, BigW is price matching DSE $69 price.
Should work at HN as well. I will try later in the day and update.

UPDATE: HN just called me (I had made a last minute pre-order last night), they confirmed they will price match 69 bucks.

How do you get them to price match at $69 when their catalogue says is $79.98?
Ruthless_Barbarian

I just asked them if they will price match DSE price, she said yes to $69 and put a note on my order about it. Going to pick it up in an hour or two.
Someone actually topped 'Citizen Kane' hyperbole!
Sessler is bordering on self-parody.
I spotted an omission in one bundle of Toys for the Sandbox – a weekly PDF publication that offers locations, plot hooks, NPCs and a few other things for fantasy games – and notified the author about it. He promptly fixed it and offered to do an issue on something I'd like to see him cover, if he could, to say thanks. I'm told it should be out in early October as it fits the theme of that month. 
My pleasure. However, the old Mumble server will be getting the arse today (account was confirmed closed as I type this). I was able to persevere through the poor control panel they had, but something that has just happened is rather insulting.
Gameservers, the host who is rather difficult and unwilling to improve their control panel – which would bring their Mumble service inline with Vent and TS – after multiple requests from users, have taken it a step further. They offered 25% off to new subscribers, which is fine to entice them to sign up, only they extended that to a 25% discount for the life of their account. As a long-time customer of theirs, the most they would offer was 10%. Insulted by this and considering the fact I am being overcharged for an inferior service, I requested the account be cancelled.
If they don't price match, remind them of the slogan they have plastered out the front of their shop.

I have GTA V in my hands right now. But I have to wait until after work to play it. Well I have to actually wait until 7:30pm tonight because the wife has the TV until after Home and Away.
man stupid playasia doesn't have a local express same day delivery type deal, which is real dumb:/
but they do have this local pickup deal where i order it from p.a and then go pick it up from their partner store...but only when they email me...or something. so i'm doing that, it better work, as in, i better be able to get that shit tonight!

I'll be picking mine up on my way home from work this afternoon at about 4ish.
As a way to convince me not to go to the midnight launch the missus promised to organise dinner and everything tonight, so I get to spend the whole night on the couch!

I found the act that I got this one is pretty great.

Urgh. Approving assignment extensions for uni students is just depressing. So much bad shit happens to people on a daily basis.
Off to try now.
Just tell them they are making up excuses like a lecturer did to me when my mum died. Not that I'm bitter about it, or still angry about it 15 years later.... no. Not at all.

That's why we handle it on an admin level without approaching the lecturers. Because half of them are complete pricks.
