monoprice.com for any cables you ever need. never pay for HDMI cables in a store! you get them for like $3 on this website.

So what are you going to use your new TV for? FUTBAWL!? Why don't you buy a router and hook up your consoles to your TV and fight me on goddamn SSF4 omfggggg ever since I played the guy named Merk-something who used pink Dudley I wanted to play you again =( YOU NEED TO PRACTICE FOR YOUR TOURNAMENT! me you and chad can do a team battle or endless mode! chad can have my 3-day trial xbl pass I got with MW2 if he doesn't have it

SO... TEMPTING....!

I wanna buy the new BlazBlue but I think it'll make me bad at SSF4, and I don't wanna spend money. I wonder if I can sell games... I pretty much only have a bunch of old worthless games left though like SF4, Assassin's Creed, Bioshock and Mass Effect. Just played through FF2 on PSP and it's actually pretty darn fun, if only for the leveling system.

I have a friend who might be interested in a couple of your 360 games, I will ask him.

Welllll the TV is being kept in "storage" at my girlfriend's apartment in Bloomington right now since I don't really have furniture in my apartment. I'm playing SC2 on a 32" LCD TV though which let me tell you is pretty cool!

I'm so jealous. I want to buy SC2 so badly but I'm afraid my poor laptop won't like it.

[Merk]

Welp if your laptop can run WoW then it can probably run SC2.

[Frisbez]

It can run WOW. It just has terrible airflow and overheats too often. Yep, it'sa Dell.

[SoDeepPolaris]

Downloading/patching Cataclysm beta.

But I might play SC2 some more instead.

This is the correct answer. What is your friend code, friend? I think I am Merk.144 or something like that. I'll check on my lunch break.

Some really fun games in here, check em out. Lists the top 10 XBL indie games. Cheap and fun! Like me!

[Riot]

That new Metroid-Vania style Castlevania on XBL is pretty fun. I played the demo but didn't play the multiplayer aspect of it, but I can I see how having a few players with you could be chaotically fun. Man there are just too many games out right now I feel like I should play, but not enough time to play em =( I don't feel like I'm prepared enough to start teaching in two weeks either! Argh!

[Merk]

Riot you absolutely have to give us a trip report of your first day of teaching.
