ground shipping...the post office doesn't even do that anymore.

jianbing - i know the feeling! but didn't realize you were off so long...

Haha. Yeah, it was taking too much time away from lots of other things in my life. I had planned on going a year, but I broke down :p

Got a TON of games to catch up on now though. I have RE5, Bionic Commando, and Mirrors Edge all sitting here, but I can drag myself away from Tales of Vespiria right now :laugh:

Had some free time, but didn't want to get into big games, so I loaded up my Arcade compilation and got a few more achievements with Bejeweled, Geometry Wars and Outpost Kaloki X, so now I'm over 28K, w00t!

Rookas, personally i think it's not worth the aggravation. let it go my friend!

Are you kidding? I'm having a great time with it, haven't played Bioshock in ages and it's really an amazing game. The vita chambers always made the game feel cheap. As long as you save frequently it's not very difficult. I'm already running errands for Sander Cohen, moving along quite nicely. I just now got the crossbow, which makes the Big Daddies much easier to drop, but I've already killed 6 or 7 of them with grenades/shotty. I remember the game being much harder, but I was using a much smaller TV at that time. Gamefly finally shipped Wolverine to me, and I'm thinking of actually purchasing Prototype (in a store no less, haven't done that in a long time). My score should be climbing again soon, I just had to take care of that annoying 1000/1100 in Bioshock!

I've nearly hit 50,000 points, thanks to a few more achievements on Shaun White Snowboarding last night. I want to finish the main quest at least before I send it back to LoveFilm, then I'm gonna get to work on Resistance 2 on the PS3.

didn't mean Bioshock as a whole, just that achievement. PLUS, i just finished replaying it, took care of all the little sisters...and as reported online, that 40GS for handling all the LS's didn't come on. Oh well.

don't get me started on Gamefly...what a bunch of dimwits. Gaming is a buyer's hobby, i'm sorry to say.

Ouch... in that case, I concede :|

Yeah, I thought it would be the same as last time I went for that achievement: play for a few hours and then put in call of duty. I really got sucked into it this time, been playing for a few days straight. I'll probably beat the game when I get home from work later, the end is tough but a lot of fun.

After finishing Outpost Kaloki X and tired of getting frustrated with Geometry Wars, I loaded up Bioshock and started my Brass Balls run. Only played for about an hour because it's time to get some shut eye. I tried to see if perhaps I could go for the last achievement in Boom Boom Rocket, but 5 laps on endurance on Hard is, well, very hard! Beating any COD game on Veteran is easier than that :(

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By eiffel_g · Posted

      Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
