Be Excellent To Each Other

Yes. STILL. I WANT MY FUCKING CYMBALS. At this rate they'll skip the RB2 hardware and (hopefully!) give us the Beatles hardware.

How very rubbish! I'm not that desperate for them really as I've been playing the game just fine with the GH:WT drums, would just be nice to be able to play the game with the drums that it was specifically designed for.

Nope. I'm really glad I went with the WT set now. Plus it'll map with GH:M better.

I have no complaints whatsoever about my GH:WT hardware. I'm just shocked that the RB2 stuff still isn't out, even though I wasn't going to buy it anyway.

Also: Chrome, stop underlining all my common contractions as mis-spelled words, you fucking imbecile.

Yeah, that's pretty much the conclusion I'd come to when I was looking around last weekend. Climbing the north face of MOUNT ROCK last Bank Holiday Monday seems to have more-or-less finished off our drumkit so I'm sort've leaning towards waiting till September and getting the Beatles kit even though I'm not that interested in the game.

Ringo's kit will only have two drums and a hi hat on it, though.

Actually I think it just comes with a drum machine that's RAM-limited to no more than 8 notes per bar in 4/4.

I presume a Guitar Hero: Metallica kit would have mechanical covers to block your drum pads on any sort of off-beat note?

And a big boxing gloves full of horseshoes that comes out and punches you in the face if you try to download any more of their songs.

Insane or TOCA Race Driver 3 for $5 and Flatout for $3 on gog.com

If you're pondering TOCA get it now, they lose the licence to sell it on the 29th.

Interesting - why is their licence to TOCA not being renewed? Seems like an odd decision from Codemasters, it's not like the game is for sale anywhere else.

Only a fiver...anyone know if it's any good?



Orange box 360 tenner at zavvi

It's "alright". I got fed up of it very quickly.

I take it that means it's not even worth a fiver then!

I wouldn't encourage you to pay any more than that for it. It is OK.

Bionic Commando Rearmed is 400 points this week on XBLA.

Nice, probably will get that, have it on PC, but never got round to completing it.

I gopt 2x2100 points for XBLA when you linked to them the other week, just sat there ready to get the better games selected for deal of the week.

Gah, these people are idiots. Stranglehold is easily worth £5, it's awesome fun.

I fully endorse the purchase of this super acebest game.

This is easily in the top 5 for games I played last year. It is brilliant. Massively, massively polished (far more than any 1200 pointer) and wonderful.

Please, please, please give it a go.

It is acebest,

I boughted it last night.

Not sure if it's much of a bargain but I nabbed one anyway...

Rock Band (Solus) 360 - £17 ASDA

Had it for PS3 too.

Ninja Blade is £12.99 at Gamestation if anyone wants any over-the-top Ninja fun.

Some bargains in Blockies the other day, again I don't know how widespread these offers are but all their used copies of GoW2 were a tenner, loads of other stuff in the 2 for 20 as well.

GoW2 was in the 2 for £20 offer in Gamestation today, I noticed.

So mine.

23" widescreen Samsung monitor for £150? Blimey.

Don't suppose anybody's found Guitar Hero: Metallica for less than £37 have they? If not, I'll either wait or pick it up in a shop.

I'm saving up Goozex points for it (or Green Travel points at work, whichever I get the most of first).

I've got enough to buy 8 or 9 copies of it on Goozex, but I can't see anybody putting it in their offers any time soon. Goozex isn't really good for brand new games, but it's not designed to be.

You never know. I got a shrinkwrapped copy of Rock Band 2.

It's in my requests, anyway, at position 2.

Crap, I tried to do it last night and it wouldn't let me.

It wasn't out last night, surely.

Yeah, I'm annoyed with myself that I didn't remember this morning. I'm number 3 now, anyway.

Gamestation are doing 3 DS games + £1 for Pokemon Platinum. Good deal for dealers like me but perhaps not quite so much for anyone else.

i post this here as ther is no anti-bargain thread

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nintendo-Lite-H ... m_vg_h__82

DS Lite £160

be thankfully for bargains

ShopTo are flogging XBox Live subs for £29.

Some good 360 deals at the hut today.

In particular,

DMC4 for £9.73
NHL2k9 for £6.73
Darkness for £4.73
Alone in the Dark for £4.73
And for the two people that haven't bought it yet, Fallout 3 is £17.73 on there.

AitD is worth a fiver if you have a high tolerance threshold (people who gnashed their teeth at Dead Rising need not apply). The Darkness I found a bit poo, tbh.

Oooh, been waiting for an NHL game to drop to an irresistable price. Ta, DM.

AitD GET!

I'm tempted, then I remember the 3 games I haven't got around to even opening, never mind playing yet.

I have seven games that haven't even been near my Xbox. I really should stop buying things.

Compared to the amount of gaming I do, I have far to many games. 100+ 360 games, easily.

Saying that, I've got more in the mail. Why!?

Just found an official Sony PS3 headset, preowned in Gamestation, for £10.

AH SHEEEEEEEET! If I'd known I would've looked in my local on my lunch hour. I'll look tomorrow. Cheers Gaybud!
