Newegg has the XBONE 500gb GOW bundle for $285 with code EMCKNKW84
 


I enjoy the melee in the game, but some of those physics interactions are wonky as hell. Still a blast. Not sure why they gave nunchakus a 'rock bottom'-backbreaker move, but it's cool in the game.
 
I bought a 3DS XL for niece for christmas and decided to charge it before I wrapped it. Come to find out they don't come with a charger.
What kind of bullshit is this? That's fucking ridiculous.
 
Bought Just Cause 3 today from Target. I had heard of the bugs, load times, and frame rate dips, but I had seen several people have a great time with it, and decided to give it a shot.

3 hours in, and its already crashed, the game has lost my progress, and the controls are pretty bad, with no options to customize them. I'll give it a bit more time, but this is a serious let down so far.

In the future, this completely forgettable game will be hyped as one of the GOAT by hipsters, who will also claim that it's "way better then GTA 6".

Sad part is, you're right haha I returned it, got some Best Buy credit, and put it towards a new 2 TB Harddrive for my PS4.

First time changing out harddrives..and it went off without a hitch! It was a pretty seamless change. Nice feeling of accomplishment within the first hour of 2016 haha.
 
Finally got around to trying out Warframe after having it downloaded forever.

Anyone got any tips starting out? Certain missions to consistently grind?
 
If you're just starting, don't just grind a single planet initially. Do whatever quests you can (Howl of the Kubrow will net you a Kubrow companion and show you how to get more) but mostly explore the star chart. This will get you access to planets for alerts and invasions that will get you the necessary components for more weapons & warframes.

Leveling up new, different weapons and warframes will get you mastery xp, and when you get new ranks you will get access to new weapons. Some weapons require higher Mastery Ranks, like the Syndicate weapons (The Rakta Cernos bow requires MR12, I think).

The planetary bosses will drop a blueprint for a part of a warframe. You can farm them to get all the parts you need for the warframe, but you may need to go to different planets to get the different resources to craft each piece.

Running out of slots? Do some void missions, get some parts for prime weapons/warframes/etc that you don't need/want, and sell them to other players for platinum. Use the platinum for new weapon/warframe slots. It's very easy to be self-sufficient like this. If you need void keys you can hang out in the Recruiting channel and try to join others, or do Excavations/Survivals for easy keys.

If you like the shotguns, go with the Hek when you're high enough (MR3, I think). If you're in a clan, ask if anyone has the syndicate mod and is willing to trade it for cores/whatever. Hell, I think I can get it now, my Syndicate standing is maxed, I think it's Steel Meridian... anyway, the mod will increase your multishot on the shotgun by a lot and add the special AOE effect that procs when it gets enough affinity in a mission. It'll proc a lot, killing shitloads of extra stuff in the early-mid levels. It turns a good shotgun into a great shotgun.

Edit: My in-game name is 'adelante1981', I think. Feel free to hit me up if you see me on. Just let me know who you are and I'll give a hand if I can.

I'd imagine you've heard of FrankieonPC videos? While I'm no PC gamer, I can't get enough of watching Arma masterminds go at it. One of the purest spectator channels around, IMO
 
yakuza 5 on psn, not sure if anyone here is also a fan of the series.
 
Bought Bloodborne and Alien Isolation since they were both on sale. Barely touched either one because Ark is eating up all my gaming time.

Considering the strong response from those of you who felt that the Exclusive Rewards should remain exclusive for the Kickstarter, those Exclusive Rewards will not be made available on the PayPal page as originally promised.
