THe reason I haven't been big into Boardwalk empire is the fact that I already know that life. IM FROM atlantic City. I know alot of italian families that still have some form of power through the casinos

The new copy of @Gamer just came in the mail, the exclusive gaming magazine for Best Buy.

I strongly recommend anyone who shops at Best Buy to subscribe to this magazine (scroll below to see why).

These coupons come in every month's magazine, with new coupons for different games each month. The best part is, if you're cool with the employees that work there, you can use the coupons as many times as you want, they'll just pull them out of the magazines they have at the store on display. For example, the $10 off any used game $19.99 or higher? I can use that coupon multiple times. Plus, these coupons stack with in store sales, so for example, Final Fantasy XIII-2 is on sale right now for $49.99, and I can apply that $15 dollars off coupon to that sale price, and get it for $34.99, which I actually plan on doing.

It's pretty awesome, and the coupons are almost always for great games. Mass Effect 2 is only $19.99 at Best Buy, so if you apply that $15 dollars off coupon, you get Mass Effect 2 for $5 dollars!!

Woah, I just realized that Mass Effect 2 coupon is for both PS3 and 360. I already have the 360 version, but I have been wanting to get the PS3 version for the extra free DLC, the fact that it runs on the ME3 engine, and it comes with that additional comic. I'm going to pick that up for $5.

WOW, $20 off Arkham City and $15 off Mass Effect 2? DO WANT.

If you used the Mass Effect 2 coupon, then you'd end up only paying $5 for Mass Effect 2 which is a steal.

I'll check to see if this is available in Canada.

Yeah, man. And it stacks with in store sales, which Best Buy has all the time. I just realized, Bulletstorm is only $19.99 new, so I can get it for $5 bucks with that coupon, along with ME2 for $5 as well. I'm telling you, I have gotten so many games for dirt cheap this way, like Red Dead Redemption Game of the Year, Crysis 2, Heavy Rain, Medal of Honor and literally a bunch of other games.....

Gamer Magazine is only available in the US.

Why does this always happen?

All we have are Gamer Reward points. Hardly anything to brag about.

Unfortunately, I don't recall ever seeing a handheld game in the coupon section.

I'm in the U.S. so I'm not sure if it is available in Canada or not.

Java project. The idea is simple. We have to make a program where the user creates a payroll sheet to print out. We're being graded on how bug-free it is.

that translates to $836 CAD (according to the current stock market prices). But why didnt you get a desktop? You could've gotten a desktop with the same specs or slightly better for 1/3 rd the price. (Unless if NZ doesn't have them, which would be a small surprise)

(www.xe.com/ucc) which is a currency conveter that uses the latest market standing to determine the currency. So according to that, 1000 NZD= 779.00 AUD

i just went back to 13....so restricting when it comes to gameplay.I actually missed 13-2

eboyishere

Yeah, FF13-2 is so superior to FF13 its not funny.

I just liked lightning and the story more in 13. But everything else 13-2 does better.

And FF13 was more polished and techinically presented...but FF13-2 did everything else waaaay better. :)

Man, I bought a pack of Calamari and chips from a take away food place, as I handed over my $10 note, the person game me a New Zealand dollar coin in exchange. I tried spending it at a 7 Eleven for a drink and they rejected the New Zealand money. I am still upset about it to this day.

[QUOTE="soulitane"][QUOTE="illmatic87"] Man, I bought a pack of Calamari and chips from a take away food place, as I handed over my $10 note, the person game me a New Zealand dollar coin in exchange. I tried spending it at a 7 Eleven for a drink and they rejected the New Zealand money. I am still upset about it to this day.ShadowsDemon

That's just typical Australian ignorance, they don't recognize a superior currency when they see it :o

Superior =/= correct/ ;)

Joke=/=serious :o

I just found out that the GameCube is now popular... for the wrong reason.

Did anyone notice that the Wii got a redesign?

The new Wii consoles are horizontal only, and are not meant to be played vertically. They are a bit more compact in size than the original model as well. It's also worth noting that they are no longer backwards compatible with Gamecube games.
