[QUOTE="arkephonic"]

I've been shopping at Best Buy for the last couple years. You obviously know nothing about it. They have sales like this every week, I would know. You obviously have no idea. There's literally not a week that goes by without a ton of games being on sale like this.

Since you clearly have no idea what you're talking about, why do you talk about things you know nothing about? If you checked the website weekly like I do and shopped there weekly, you'd know. Clearly you don't. All I see is a moron (you) disagreeing with something that they know nothing about, and you are just really wrong, lol.

bloodling

I did not disagree with anything you said in particular, I made some valid points, looked at the information you gave me, saw that it was false and corrected it. There are 190 games/gaming accessories on sale right now. Not 300. You really love making a fool of yourself, don't you?

190? Where did you get that number? There are 211 products on the page I posted, and there are a bunch of other promotions and sales going on outside of that page. 300 was an estimation. You're really grasping at straws if you're hanging on something as trivial as this. It basically means you're just arguing to argue. I mean, seriously? There's probably 270 products on sale, and you're going to make a fuss about it? Get a life, lol.

arkephonic

Right from the link I posted. Here are the sales themselves.And no I wasn't making a big deal out of this, but I would be surprised to see them call it a big summer blowout with 190 games/accessories on sale if they have 100 games on sale every week. And I'm not making a big deal out of this at all. You are. You're even insulting me for no reason at all. I don't care how cheap you get your games. You think I'm mad at you? I actually find this quite funny. And pathetic. I've learned one thing from this thread though: to ignore you. If I see something that is just plain wrong, I usually correct it, and that has nothing to do with "arguing just to argue". At this point, I'm going to leave because it's getting ridiculous, and continuing to talk to you would be stubborn.

Rilpas, crying to mods when he gets butthurt. Someone sent me a direct link in my inbox of you crying to AdobeArtist trying to get me banned because I made you cry and hurt your feelings. You were one of those little tattle tale kids that had no friends on the playground, amirite? Sorry, I can't associate with people like you, you'll just cry to the mods about everything! :lol:

Oh, did you just see that guy jaywalking!? He didn't even press the button and wait for the walk signal to cross! I'm calling the police!

That's you in a nutshell. Such a **** lol.

Someone sent me the actual conversation you had with AdobeArtist trying to get me in trouble. I'm not gonna lie, I haven't seen something so pathetic in my entire life. Why do you think the people sent it to me? Because they felt the same way :lol:

For you guys saying console games are never cheap, just take a look at this week's Best Buy sales. They have sales like this all the time.

All these games brand new / sealed for under $10 bucks.

Rayman Origins

Crysis 2

Driver San Francisco

Tekken Hybrid

Skate 3

Rage

Super Street Fighter IV

Sorcery

Rayman 3D

Dead Rising 2

Dead Space 2

Bulletstorm

Animal Crossing City Folk

Dungeon Siege 3

The Darkness 2

Spirit Camera

Dirt 3

Dragon Quest 9

Wolfenstein

Child of Eden

Tetris Axis

Singularity

And tons more, just look for yourself. This isn't even one of Best Buy's better sales, they get way, way better as we get closer to Christmas. Between Costco, Best Buy, Fred Meyer, Target, Amazon, CheapAssGamer, FatWallet, Craigslist and others, you can always find deals on retail games. There are always physical retail console games cheaper or just as cheap as Steam's offerings, even on their sales. This isn't even a very good Best Buy sale, sometimes games are $5 bucks, good games as well. These games this week aren't even that good.

Those are cheap, too bad none of those games really interest me that much.

[QUOTE="mems_1224"]playing with a keyboard and mouse sucks. i hate it.JasonDarksavior
I''m not a fan either but they have gamepads for pc too.

oh i know, but not every game supports them. i i have wireless adapter for my 360 controller that i use whenever i can. i just hate having to remap controls for every game i play. almost every game has a different control scheme and i hate having jump/crouch and sprint buttons on the shift/control/alt keys. i have to constantly remap them to my extra mouse buttons. on the plus side though you can access things easier with so many keys available.

But try using dual analog for competitive first person shooters on the PC. Mouse/Keyboard is far more precise...

i wish i could honestly. i haven't seen that much of a notable difference playing with a keyboard and mouse than with a controller

It's the summer blowout sale. Which is only in the States.

Steam (and other sites) already had their summer sales.

I can't think of any advantages that console has over PC. With a PC, I can do everything a console can do plus more. I like my PS3 and all, but it has no advantage over PC.

There are only two advantages off of the top of my head that consoles have over PC unless:

- You are an idiot (they are slightly less complex)

- You don't use logic (you can spend less on building a gaming pc than the combined price of a decent desk/laptop + console, especially when you factor in the price of games)

- You "don't have time to screw with your PC/PC games" (yet you have time to cruise around System Wars using stupid logic)

And onto the valid reasons...

- Exclusives

- Real life friends (not a platform advantage, more of a situational one)

Can't think of anything else.

Bizzard is the best developer in the world? Hell no, especially not after the awful, awful trainwreck Diablo 3. I see your console advantages list has no Nintendo games there. Also, using the 360 controller is a plus now? I thought you hated the 360 controller.

If you look at the entire album it is literally a poser list on all systems.
