TDubbs, don't worry.  There will be plenty of parent talk and beer drinking with the folks and catch playing with my brothers.  We may decide to spend an hour or two playing a few video games, if that's okay with you.

Have a good weekend, fellas.

Oh, and Kerm...you should probably take Best Buy up on that deal.

R6: Vegas and GRAW?  I have both of them already.

I thought you meant the sequels to both.  My bad.

Oh, no.  I'd definitely pick it up if that was the case.

Does anyone know of any other good deals on the PS3?  I was going to buy one with that Dell coupon code, but hearing that Sony might announce a price drop this week, I held off.  Turns out it was the PS2 going down to $99 and now the code at Dell has expired.

A quality game if you're in a lull with your current library.  The multiplayer, especially the team objective ones, are solid.  Many guns, cool sounds, large maps.

I thought the demo for Too Human was terrible, but the full game is $12 at Buy.com right now if you want it.

It's gotten terrible reviews.  And what definitely eliminated it from consideration for me is apparently every time you die, there's like a 20-30 second cutscene that can't be skipped.

Rainbox Six: Vegas AND GRAW for $30 at Best Buy.

Yea, I saw that while I was in there yesterday... I thought about posting something, but I got lazy and started eating


One of my personal goals is to work with Yeti on this, but its hard for me to get motivated, because posts like these are awesomely funny.  It almost makes me want to break my decade-long boycott on Doritos.  ALMOST.

I'm going to go eat now.



Re: Newegg, I'm out of the loop, but I do hear they have the market cornered on offering great deals.  Never tried 'em before, but heard plenty of positive feedback.

The people responsible for ruining my 2008 (who have left 8 voicemails on my phone this week -- I have not spoken to them since last July) told me Too Human was Best Game Ever territory.  So, it pleases me greatly to hear that its a piece of shit.  I would have assumed as much, but seeing confirmation of its shittiness makes me happy in that vindictive sorta way.

If you want to confirm it yourself, download the demo and play it for five minutes.

Ok, so that sale is on.  Are any of those 360 games even worth wasting time on?  I'm new to the nerdbox and would gladly pick one up if there's a good recommendation.

I think Devil May Cry 4 would be worth the $10.  If you're looking for a survival horror game, I've heard good things about Silent Hill.  I've been wanting to pick up Soul Calibur IV as I need a good fighting game.  And from everything I've heard, Pure is awesome.
