Hoping Hotline Miami goes on sale even more, will definitely pick it up if it does.

To bad Far Cry 3 was not part of the Ubisoft bundle either, if it was, would have strongly considered picking it up since AC III is also in there as well.

Yep, lags firefox to hell loading it :/

I had to End Process as it lagged it so bad. Great idea, awful execution. Do not load the entire damn database on one page. And if it turns out they were not (I never did get to see it in action) then it is horribly coded. Really good idea for a site, as I said, horrible execution.

Probably system related and not the site. Loads silky smooth over here without any issues on Firefox 17.0.1, even with some crap running in the background.

No lags for me....Chromium on Ubuntu 12.10

The daily deals last two days? That's not daily.

Like in the thanksgiving sale they'll likely be replaced by new deals at the normal time(10am pst/1pm est), but will continue to be available at that price till the next day.

Used Chrome on my PC... noticed zero lag, had zero interruption. Maybe they've changed the way it's loaded, or maybe it is a Firefox issue.

    • Why it's almost impossible to produce a smartphone in the United States

      Ridiculous claim that the labor cost difference of $6000 annually would increase cost per phone by $200. The employees produce 3 phones per month or what?

      Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.

      And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂
