Well I don't post much here anymore so probably nobody would notice. Even when did post a lot here, I was never a really well-known member anyway so yeah... (cuts wrists emo-like) lmao

I remember when I went to EB Games/Gamestop to buy Dead Space and they didn't have any sealed copies left so they just gave me an opened copy. They took the display case on the shelf and put the game inside it. Now, it was new and unplayed (although EB games has a rep for employees opening games and then resealing them) but I didn't feel comfortable with it and I'm a bit OCD (I didn't like the price sticker and taking it off sometimes leaves residue) so I returned it at another location and then bought it elsewhere sealed.

I remember I once went to an EB games and I returned a game and they put the money on a gift card w/o telling me. So I thought they never gave my money back for the game and I got really upset. I made a big deal and they called a higher manager. Needless to say, we discovered the error and all was well. I proceeded to buy something else but then they forgot to give me $5 back in change but I didn't realize it until much later. I was so pissed it made me never shop at that location again.

We all have Gamestop horror stories lmao, that's why I buy from Best Buy usually

I remember watching Letterman since he originally got the 11:35 time slot back in the 90s. I would also pass out before Conan but when I got older, I started to watch his show a lot more (even though it was at 12:35). To be honest though, I spend that half an hour watching Colbert and typically in Canada, a South Park re-run follows directly after (when either talk show host has their guests) so I don't find myself watching either anymore.

But it makes me wonder why it would be on Tuesdays as opposed to say Monday or Wednesday or something.

I think Monday would be better, since there are nice things coming out that can make a sucky week slightly better :P

I think Tuesday is more in the middle of the week than Monday and that might have something to do with the earlier statement that publishers release games on Tuesdays to get people into the store. If you're wondering tc, this phenomenon of game releases on tuesdays is nothing new. If you consider Friday/Saturday as the primary days to go out shopping then you have Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Tuesday simply falls directly in the middle of the five non-shopping days.

I have the game on 360 and I'm actually replaying it atm but on a really crappy television. The game looks pretty identical to be honest but if I remember correctly, the 360 version was the lead platform and actually it looks slightly better (I think GS did a comparison a long time ago). Regardless, if you're thinking of selling your 360, just get the PS3 version because the graphical differences are negligible.

Definitely Super Mario Bros for NES. I remember when I was a little kid and my cousin gave me her NES and a copy of Super Mario Bros with the encouragement of my grandmother. Needless to say, my mother was pissed because all I would do is play it all day long. Good times lol

Hey so I was just bored and I was trying to figure out something about the New York Giants and the New York Jets.

In Baseball, the people in Long Island and Queens typically root for the Mets while people in Brooklyn, Bronx and Manhattan root for the Yankees.

In Hockey, the Mets fans are usually Islanders fans and the Yankees fans are usually Rangers fans.

All of that makes sense because the stadiums/areans are located closer to the geographical areas. However, in Football both the Giants and Jets play at Giants Stadium in New Jersey.

So basically my question is does geography play a role in deciding if you're a Giants or Jets fan?

Well, I think Taylor Swift should thank Kanye for the publicity boost because her record jumped up the charts if I remember reading correctly.

my personal rule is don't date co-workers, don't wanna make things awkward in the work place after all.
