So, I'm going on an all day roadtrip to Indiana with my parents to get a new dog and hit up a ton of Goodwills along the way. Trying to decide whether I should start Xenoblade 3D/MH4U or finish and beat Majora's Mask 3D or PLvsAA. :V It's gonna be at least a 3 hour drive down there and a 3 hour drive back, so I'm looking at being gone around 8-10 hours. :L

Goodwill has been getting smarter, but it's not hard to find an awesome item that's fallen through the cracks. As more recent examples: Found a $200 weather center for $50 and a Xbox One Kinect in almost new condition for $20.
As for the dog, we're getting another whippet. x3

I still get my best finds at the old lady thrift stores. They have no idea what they have sometimes, lol.
My step brother had a whippet, he was crazy XD. He was so fast for being so small.

My vote goes For Professor Layton. If nothing else, if your family gets annoying you have a reason to tune them out :P

I had my laptop for 2-4 years. How do I convince my parents to buy me a new laptop computer with better parts, since my laptop overheats after playing SWTOR for 2 hours on very low settings. My laptop is a Dell Inspirion N411Z.

You convince them by saving up for one yourself.
Otherwise, just explain that your computer was pretty outdated when you first bought it and it's time for a more modern upgrade.

Like GC said save some money to show you want it. Maybe if they see you want it enough they might help you out a little. It really depends on how strict your parents are.

I saved up to buy my new 3DS to show much I wanted/needed it (since my old one was tiny and broken) I could only pay for about half of it though, but still :)

Awwww man, I thought the testfire was AM, not PM... Here I was all excited, but it'll be another 14 hours lol.

The only thing I can fully say we don't need VC in Splatoon is if you die, it shows your ghost for a second on the gamepad so your team knows there is a enemy there.


MatrixChicken
People are getting really stupid about Splatoon, and it's really depressing.

@Chrop People are complaining about no voice /chat/, not not voice /acting/. In a team based game, communication is very important, and not being able to makes coordination with your team neigh on impossible. That's what people are complaining about, and it's a very valid complaint.

That's a little silly, sure, but being disappointed and bothered over it is completely understandable.

I think I can get on semi-regularly now, though my Steam access is still limited. Had a booksale today, managed to get an almost-complete set of Bone (It's a good graphic novel series) books, and I'm going to see Avengers 2 tomorrow with a cousin. So things're getting a bit better, though I'm still feeling rather iffy.

Iffy with the Jiffy looking Fine and Spiffy?
No, not quite. Here's hoping things continue on the get better route!

I had high hopes for the Bone Telltale games, but they're apparently buggy and kinda sucky games that never got a finished series. :S

Splatoon is trending worldwide on Twitter. Didn't expect it to actually.. .be a thing, but apparently people care, which is good for Nintendo (and their image of "rehashing" IPs)


GAMER1984
Nintendo i said it a long time ago... please give me a splatoon demo after the direct... PLEASE if any game needs one its this game.

Jenni
My big sis told me about the demo, and I was excited to play. Upon DLing it turns out it won't start until tomorrow, at 8 PM, and only for an hour. It'll run on Saturday after than for two or three hours max. It's very dumb.

it's more or less a test for Nintendo so they can tweak and make changes to servers for May 29th release. Hence the name of the demo, Global Testfire

i am getting the game day one, but not bothering with the demo because i figured it was for testing anyways, and if you watch the direct they even mentioned if you see a player wearing a lab suit, it's a mod/tech for the game.
