My PS4 stopped working last week, wouldn't read a disc. I checked carefully and couldn't see anything jammed and sent it to Sony (It's literally 2 weeks old).   They sent it back 3 days later wit

No I've been curious about it. Which also reminds me, Fez.

Just placed my pre-order for the Prestige edition of MW2 @ Amazon. :club: I headed to the poker room last night fully intending to make the nice folks at the charity casino be the ones to finance my purchase. Mission accomplished as I won $230 in a 4 hour session.Anyway, I didn't want to order from Amazon because I wanted the game on the 10th, but I found out they offer release-date delivery on certain games for like $5 extra, so it was a no brainer. Grand total was $155.97, which is less than I would have paid at GameStop/Best Buy after taxes. And I got a $10 credit towards my next video game purchase.Game should be here on the 10th, no later than 7pm, and I've already asked for the day off from work that day.

This part had me really thrown for a loop for a good 3 minutes. I then realized I live in a state without sales tax, I really do forget that it exists.

Yea I think Illinois has one of the highest sales tax in the country at like 12.5% or something crazy like that.

literally just spent like, six hours on one TF2 server. 900 points, tons of taunt kills, set a bunch of records. went 590-320 K-D or something obscene. the halloween map is quite fun. and I randomly got a beanie hat for my pyro!I will also not be buying MW2... it's best played on a console imo.
Thanks for the TF2, now if only I can get on a server!

Dragon Age tomorrow, first game I've been excited about in quite a while. Picked up DJ Hero this weekend and it's actually pretty fun. I've also been trying to find an uncensored copy of The Witcher. I might pick up Borderlands too.

Any reason why you're not getting MW2?

I haven't been really fond of military FPS games since the first Call of Duty. It's just a flooded genre that I'm completely bored of. Every once in a while I'll play one of the newer ones at a friends house or something, but none of them really hold my attention.A lot of it also has to do with having a group of people you like playing with, which I don't really have.

yah, but uh...its MW2!!!But in all seriousness, MW2's multiplayer does not seem to be too team oriented (at least CoD4 wasn't.) But I get what you are saying, it's definitely more fun to play with people you know, rather than complete strangers.

My main issue is that the COD campaigns aren't really all that much more interesting than most other FPS/3PS games, but the game is so popular that the multiplayer is going to be unbearable for casual players like me, because of all you people who play like 5 hours a day, every day. So what is the point really?

CoD4 is about the most noob-friendly FPS game out there, imo. And the addictive nature of it makes you want to play more and more, ergo you get better and better.The beauty of the online multiplayer is the balance that Infinity Ward created with all the weapons/perks/attachments. So even someone who has put in tons of hours and has all the best gear unlocked, still does not have that big an advantage over someone who is playing with a standard starting class.And I gotta disagree about the single player Campaign. I thought CoD4's was fantastic, albeit a bit short. But MW2's is suppose to be even more awesome.

Yea, I'm super excited for Dragon Age as well. I won't be getting it tomorrow though or I will fail all my classes this semester.

I already have MW2 on pre-order. I have been playing Forza 3, Batman Arkham Asylum, and any & all music games especially The Beatles: Rock Band. I have been wanting to play some DJ Hero, but I have balked at the price for the time being.

Yea I think Illinois has one of the highest sales tax in the country at like 12.5% or something crazy like that.
I have a receipt in front of me and it's 8.5% statewide with local municipalities being higher than that. I know here in southern Illinois that the cities of Marion, Carbondale, and West Frankfort all have extra taxes due to them being home rule communities. I think only California has a higher sales tax than Illinois...but I could be wrong.
