    Fallout 3

    I'm getting the PC version. It's gonna be Games for Windows Live, meaning I can still get achievements, but it's cheaper by $10, and my PC can run it fine (though the reocmmended ATI card is a 3800 and I have a 2900...).

    Speaking only for Target, I know for a fact that management could give a shit if you knew anything or not. Your job was to sell accessories and credit card subscriptions. I am positive Best Buy is the same. Yea, I could have probably used to term switcher instead of splitter, but in the end I would have most likely got the same "uh, huh?" response. I can't fucking stand these places putting people in departments where they know nothing about the products. By the way, if anyone is looking for a high-quality HDTV, I bought one back in May that is really awesome, and a great value for the price. I picked-up a 42" 1080p LCD by Philips. It has 4 HDMI inputs and 3 Component inputs, as well as a 29,000:1 contrast ratio. I have it mainly outputting to my 5.1 surround receiver, but even the built-in speakers sound great. Cost me a little under $900. What is the lag time on that thing? Primarily, what annoys mbe about HDTV is when I am playing PS2 on it and the lag on the input is awful.

    PS 3 problem

    Yeah, PS1 - laser issues. Temporary fix: Put the system upside down. PS2 - laser issues. Temporary fix: None, watch sadly as the PS2 dies slowly. PS3 - laser issues? Maaayyyyyyybe.

    Try clearing your cache. Google "Clear Xbox 360 Cache" because I am a lazy shitbag.

    Halo3

    Wasn't that supposed to be super limited edition?

    No signal - Leads me to believe there's in issue with the cables connecting your 360 to your TV. Or, yes, less likely, an issue with the TV itself. What kind of cable are you using?

    If you need USB out from your router, you need it for a very good reason, and you're not going to go to Target, I imagine. Anyway, when I worked at Target, they used to only carry D-Link. They now also sell Linksys.

    Grand Theft Auto IV

    Judging from the comments at the link below, they're coming, but the patch hasn't been released yet. No clues about whether they're retroactive, either. http://www.allps3trophies.com/retail-games...v-trophies.html I would bet no. Burnout Paradise swore up and down that their trophies would be retroactive, and that didn't work out. There has to be some reason why it won't work. That said, I know GTA 4 stores certain kinds of save information securely. It may be possible.

    Explain; had you heard a salesperson say something similar? I had a salesperson who didn't know jack shit about anything. Someone wanted to know what cable they needed to hook up their router, or cable modem, or something. His response was, "USB or Ethernet"? He pronounced Ethernet wrong. Also, in America, hardly anything at all (nothing at Target at least) uses USB for network data (I have heard it is used in the UK). I stepped in and corrected him. He gave me a dirty look later, and I told him that "Next time, you may feel free to give the guests the wrong information." He quit later. I heard he works at Del Taco now. He was in his 40's or 50's.

    It could be a secret achievement, or the achievement was HHHard to implement.

    Street Fighter IV announced...

    Now I just read a report that Cammy is in the game for sure. I've already taken enough hits to my credibility here by reading this shit and parroting it as fact. Here's what I know: Vega sure as hell isn't the worst in the game.

    Smackdown vs. Raw 2009: News/screens

    Achievements While there appears to be a good reason, do note that Triple H's story mode achievement is worth twice as much as everyone's, except for Rey & Batista. Looks like Triple H's story is twice as long, or something?

    I used to work in Electronics at Target; this sort of thing drove me up the wall.

    I'm very happy to be able to make my own Titantron, coming out to another guy's for my CAW always was just so odd.

    Street Fighter IV announced...

    Ino said that Cammy was in the game. Now he's backpedaling. I say she's in the game. Ino also says that they're trying to figure out how to solve the lag, when Capcom already has a license to use GGPO.

    WWE Raw - October 6, 2008

    Sadly, the WWE is charging 99 cents on TOP of whatever your cell phone company would charge you for a text message.

    Drinking a bottle of Odwalla and then spitting it up into your opponent's open mouth is far more spectacular.

    OCTOBER SIGN-UPS THREAD

    I still they they should have had PAC in the Vulture Squad. And Helios would have been a better CHIKARA choice than Jigsaw. Corkscrew 630, Shooting Stardust AND Double Moonsault in the same stable? AAH, PAC is awesome. I saw him at the Dragon Gate show in LA. I'm still waiting for my friend to post that picture.
