Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

Dungeon Siege 3 is $24.99 (-50%) today through Monday morning on Steam. The problem with that? The game is only $19.99 on Amazon normally (download or CD). Oops.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

If any of you go to Subway between now and Nov 13th. They are giving out codes both on cups and via QR on posters for PS3 content.

- Uncharted 3 Multiplayer early access, and several PS@Home items are the main content offered.

If you don't want the codes, please still get them and give them (post them) to me. You can redeem up to 3 per day.

There are also codes via USA Today and some online banner ads.

You should add me if you have it for PS3. I need people to play against and brag to! ;)

360, sorry. :(

If anyone wants to add me, go ahead. Gamertag is ItsGH.

I love the head to head seasons idea. Already got promoted through one season from last night. Going to need to take 9 out of 15 points left to get promoted again.

When I first played with the new defending system, I hated it. I've gotten used to it for the most part, and although I still have some huge failures in close, I've gotten much better.

Offensively the precision dribbling is awesome, as are the new skill moves. The Scoop Turn is deadly. :)

My Ultimate Team is pretty ultimate (3-0-0). 4.5/5 Stars and im up to about 65 chemistry. I am playing a 4-3-1-2, and have the Badge, Home kit, and Away kit for Blackburn. I can't seem to find Ewood Park however for stadium (+ morale) cards.

I need to trade/auction for some bronze and silver players so I can play those tournaments as well. All my players are Gold at the moment.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

Just bought a ps3 today along with madden and nhl 12. Sorta impulse, since I barely have time to use my xbox these days with working most of the time, but having the blu ray will be nice too. I'll post my psn id when I make it monday once I get home.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

I've been playing a lot of Career Mode as manager in FIFA 12, and Sim'ing the games instead of playing them. I feel like playing is cheating since I then control the outcomes more directly.

Started as Blackburn manager (duh!).
BLK Season 1 - 11th (expectation Mid Table, Pass)
BLK Season 2 - 8th (expectation Euro Cup, Fail)
BLK Season 3 - 8th (expectation Champions Cup, Fail) - Made Euro Cup
BLK Season 4 - 5th (expectation Champions Cup, Fail) - Made Euro Cup
BLK Season 5 - 6th (expectation Win League Title, Fail) - Was Sacked!
(Hired by Arsenal)
ARS Season 6 - 2nd (expectation Champions Cup, Pass) - Won F.A. and League Cups, 23W-12D-3L, Manager of the Year
ARS Season 7 - ? (Expectations, Win League Title)

Wenger finished 8th with Arsenal in my last season at Blackburn and had a half dozen players over 32. So they needed a new coach. I even got a $7k raise to go there. :D
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

Dark Souls tomorrow! :D

Tried to add you on 360 and it said "invalid". Makes me think thats your EA ID, not your Gamertag.

Sent it, I'm webhead1015 on PSN and spidey1015 on XBL.

Coincidentally, XBL was down this afternoon (maybe still is?). Guess I was smart to get PS3 so I can have something to do.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

Hah 2 seasons later Blackburn wants me back. Whoever they hired sold off the good players I gave them and guided them to 12th place! :D I declined.
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

Steam Mid-week Madness Deal is Portal 2 for $14.99 (-50%).

The Witcher 2 is $29.99 for a couple more days (-25%) as well.

I have Dark Souls collectors edition in hand!
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

Dark Souls is fun so far. :) Although the Taurus Demon is handing me my ass at the moment. :(
 
Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

Re: Official Video Games Thread VI: Somebody set us up the bomb

That pre-order collectors edition also comes with custom headphones, That's why its $99.99. But I am on board for the Human Cannon.

edit: my mistake, you can get the bonus items without the headphones also. Whew! Saved $40!
