Hardware and Tech / YLOD PS3
« on: September 23, 2013, 06:39:13 pm »
$45 for a 60GB PlayStation 3 that's completely backwards compatible with PS2 games. Comes with power cord and Soul Calibur IV and Fallout 3.  YLOD and it doesn't turn on.

Worth it?  Wondering if I should take it to try to fix it.  Or what the trade value is at Gamestop for that model (if they take it at all).

General / eBay's My Gadgets
« on: August 15, 2013, 01:53:49 am »
A friend just sent me this... Only played with it a little bit, but I thought it was neat that it imported stuff I'd bought recently through eBay.  The search field seems a little off, though... Like I couldn't find the wizard's edition of Ni No Kuni, for instance.  But still seemed like an interesting feature for y'all to maybe play with.

General / PAX Prime 2013
« on: August 14, 2013, 03:24:29 pm »
I finally scored tickets and time off of work to go to PAX for a few days.  Anyone else heading up there?  Never been and, as long as I don't catch swine flu or something like that, I'm expecting major game overload and fun times.

Marketplace / Tales of Xillia - PSN version
« on: August 12, 2013, 08:46:41 pm »
Heya folks,

I have a PSN code for Tales of Xillia (https://store.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/#!/en-us/games/tales-of-xillia/cid=UP0700-NPUB31136_00-TALESOFXILLIA1DC).  I just got the LE version, so I don't have much need for the digital version.  If anyone's interested in not having a physical edition, for some reason, shoot me a PM and maybe we can work something out.

Thanks!

General / Gamestop paring down Nintendo DS display...?
« on: July 30, 2013, 01:36:30 pm »
I went in to my local Gamestop yesterday to check out their used games, and all their Nintendo DS games were gone.  I asked the manager about it, and he said due to other Nintendo games (Wii, Wii U) they were asked to remove their display for Nintendo DS cases.

All cases were going to be thrown out and the carts *only* would be kept in those stupid dinky locked display cases.

The manager thought it was ridiculous as well (I mentioned that the 3DS can play all of those games easily!) but said that he'd let me know when they were getting rid of the boxes (they still had them in drawers for the time being) so that I could go through them.  If he lets me, I might just try to take all of them and deal with getting rid of them later.

Anyway, just a heads up in case they're doing this as your local shop, too! It doesn't make any sense - the DS was such a money-maker for them... why would Nintendo or Gamestop decide to pare down the display so drastically?  (This store still has boxed PSP games, btw.)

I got a coupon in my email for this week only for 25% off any pre-owned game.  Coupon can be used up to 5 times, so if you didn't get one in the mail, let me know, and I can send you an image of the coupon.

Looks like this is going on today, too:

« on: May 11, 2013, 06:59:00 pm »
Some free Soul Sacrifice DLC for anyone who wants it.  You can activate it even if you don't own the game.  I figure I'll get it eventually one day, so I might as well get the DLC if they're giving it away:

C7DE-37NA-758R - Volt
P5CJ-PNNL-R79C - Renew
Q9GJ-BTNL-CEB5 - Heat
4R7F-QENE-CD4L - Frost

Sometimes it's hard to figure out where to redeem these codes, so login to https://account.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/login.action and go to "redeem prepaid card" on the right hand side.  Totally not obvious, I know.

General / Japan or bust!
« on: March 30, 2013, 10:51:53 pm »
Ok, the day is finally here - I'll be in Japan in approximately two days.  Approximately because the time change still boggles my mind.

I know I should stop by one of the Hot Potatoes... What else?  I'll be in Tokyo for a few days, then off to the Osaka/Kobe/Kyoto area.  Has anyone else been there before?  Any suggestions?  Anything I should look for for bringing back with me?

You can get it from FTL.com or GOG.com, whether you want it for Steam or not.

Great deal!  It's a fun game for sure, and definitely worth $4 if it's your sort of thing.
