When you get the game? What will you do?

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 7:47 am

I tend to obsess over finely tuning my characters in RPGs and the like because I'm out of my mind. That said, I should be able to start actually playing sometime next October.

Firstly, I must pay tribute, of course. I'll kickstand it in the corner of the room to get the best view of my ritual tribute. Then, I disrobe to my speedo and begin doing the Macarena. Once a sweat has been broken, I shall bathe with it in the kitchen sink, surrounded by incense and shaven ground squirrels. True to my Splamage deities, we are not clean until aforementioned ground squirrels construct wigwams infront of the toaster. Aaahhhh, time to dry off. Time to get.. comfortable.

I'll gently peel off Brink's plastic wrapping. About halfway through 16 Candles, the "SECURITY DEVICE ENCLOSED" tape comes off. Standard operating procedure. The night is still young, and we haven't even begun to customize.



Then I realize the ground squirrels have formed tribes that are now at war with each other! Dear god, why didn't I watch them more closely!? How are such small and artificially hairless creatures so belligerent!? I think quickly enough to pull bowls out of the cupboard and cover each ground squirrel with it's own ceramic dome of solitude. Once they have calmed down, I can then resume the evening with- ... NO! I've been had! Two of the ground squirrels have carried Brink to the chimney while the others feigned quarreling! I'm too far away and can't reach the fireplace before they escape the flume and make off with the love I never got to know. My heart is not stricken to the core with yet another loss of what would have made me happy. "IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD RISING!!", I exclaim. Alas... another night of running around Firing Range with akimbo M9's, looking straight up and running in circles with Marathon and Lightweight on, shouting "You'll never get this, you'll never get this!" when I notice someone trying to shoot me. Misery. Companion since the cradle.



You're my best friend if you actually read all that. Tell me your name. And give me a Dorito.

Let me just say your imagination is at absolutely no risk of dying off. But I'm out of Doritos, so you get a turtle. :turtle:


Turns out May 17th is the day my high school starts rigorous testing. Woe is me. I'll come home, get comfy in my sittin' chair, and download Brink off of Steam.

I'd imagine the rush to download it will be forever, so I'll amuse myself for the three hours it will take by pretending to be a Light Operative and shooting things with my Nerf Raider and jumping around like an idiot.

Then I'll fire up Brink and customize my guy to hide his identity in a way that is both scary and badass. I'll play one or two rounds of Resistance Single Player to get used to the controls, then unlock as much as I can in the Challenges. Then I go back and rock the Single Player campaign.

Then I'll go to sleep and wake up super sad because 7 hours of mandatory exams and testing seperate me from my Brink.

I names it Scrambles the Death Dealer! :3


In return, I'll offer some advice to try and speed up those tests of yours. Most likely, just giving you more free time to Brink daydream, but... it should help, with all the testing in your too-near future.
If you're stuck on a question, compare the answers. The answer choice with similarities to the most other answer choices is most likely the correct answer. This conquers the test-making trick of using similar answers to confuse the taker.

SO!

A) Green 15.
B ) Blue 15.
C) Blue 6.
D) Red 5.

B is similar to A and C, C and A only being similar to a second answer (B ), and D is alone in the corner. If I couldn't figure out the answer with what the curriculum taught me, I'd use that method to pick B. Actually never seen it fail.

Happy testing! Get a full night's sleep and eat breakfast.

I'm still trying to pre-order it, but for some reason walmart.com think it's too good for my money or something. Annoying.

Why not just pre-order at the store? :confused:

Last time I went in there and asked the guy in the electronics section he said it was something you had to do online. Now that you mention it though, half the time those people don't seem to have any idea what they're talking about. :homestar:

< *cough* electronics associate for walmart *cough*

pre-orders are done online only. Individual wal-marts have not invested any money into personal systems to keep track of them like gamestops

BUT 90% of the time when the website has a pre-order bonus the first shipment of games INSTORE have the code already inside the case you just have to buy it

but that isnt always the case sometimes we dont offer instore or we have extra cards with codes to give out you just have to ask us

I meant no offense of course. I just often see a lot of elderly people working in the electronics section, and they're not always the most technologically savvy people, eh? :frog:

And yes, if I can't pre-order it I'm hoping I'll be able to get my Hockler and scope code by buying the game in-store ASAP. Still gonna try to pre-order though, just to be safe. I want my bonus.

It is true over half don't know they just move to the department cause its a better pay increase and the hours are awesome never stay pass 10, the latest is for those that offer which is 11 pm.

Whenever there is a video game, TV, movie, or music qestion everyone runs to me. So i gave up bothering with wireless area i have to much to deal with cause i also get all the printer/ink/does this cable work for my tv/ and i can use a regualr cord for HDTV right? questions

i was just curious of everyone's estimated time of getting it cause if everyone is waiting for pre-orders through mail or stores that dont have midnight release i might have it for like 8 hours by myself and that will be boring when i wanna play co-op with a few ppl on the forum lol

HECK we even have like 15+ bonus codes for Killzone 3 lying around cause no one asked when buying the game lol so always ask instore about bonuses if we have a code card we'll give it to ya to free up space

I am the only person that gives out the codes if they are seperate at work. Heck the Fallout new vegas playing cards, we had to throw away 5 packs cause no one else gave them to ppl buying it.

It really is, especially when we have displays on game cases announcing special content or extras for games. So moral of the story...ASK the person if they refuse and its the first day its out bring out the phrase "I wanna see your manager call them please" more often they find a code or extra item and give it to you.

ACK! Wal-mart just sent me an email and said it won't deliver until the 26th of May. :(
Is that the same with everyone else who are getting it delivered by mail?

I wonder if I should cancel and get it from Gamestop instead....?
