basically, im going to the uk in a few weeks and am looking to capitalise on the lower game prices (after conversion from AUD to GBP i'll save bout $30 AUD on each game)
so, im wondering if any of you have opinions on the game homefront?
it looks kinda cool, but at the same time looks like a cheap mix of battlefield and modern warfare 2...
whaddaya think?
it does look good i would like to know this to
my favorite review site deals with this yet-another-run-of-the-mill-war-propaganda "game" with great justice
Homefront - VGS
Get Crysis 2 instead. Trust me. You will regret getting Homefront.
If you buy games will they work on your region? I thought games had a region lock like PAL and NTSC?

Medal of Honor Tier 1 is also a good deal, excellent multiplayer and has been out for a while so cheap as chips. Going to get Homefront in a few weeks when it drops in price.

I don't know a thing about video games but that was a hilarious read!
Homefront is a disgrace
Homefront sucks its has one of those bargain bin story-lines. And when i say bargain bin i mean they reached deep into the bottom of the pale to get the cheapest, easiest and non-action filled game they could find. It literally has excepts from COD like when the tower fall in COD4 when trying to catch zarkiefs son. Graphics are complete garbage Artificial Intelligence sucks and the game engine is under developed you can clearly the boxy path they are walking.
Believe just stick to COD is a lot better, besides COD has stolen everything from games like GoldenEye and Nightfire.

homefront from gamestation from the uk is about 36 GDP, converted to AUD its about $70...
here homefront costs about $100... we have ridiculously inflated video-game prices here
EDIT: oh im travelling all around with my family England, Scotland, Ireland (both republic and not) and Wales...
my dad's English so i managed to get a british passport which means i can live and work anywhere in the eurozone, im thinking of going to live in England during my gap year. (which is still 4 years away )
this game glitched like crazy on me before giving me the rings of death
not too bad of a game though

36£ brand new? Fancy picking me up one and I'll give you the money when you come to Ireland. You can check tesco too, they usually have cheap video games as its a supermarket.
Whoever said about the AI etc. Who carews? It's all about box live bay bee.
How's online?
The one thing I usually hate about FPS' is the fluidity of the character movements. Like sprinting etc. I feel like nearly all FPS' are all crampy and awkward compared to COD. I can't really explain it.

this is my green laser, it's 30mW, and it was only $20 (which is a VERY good deal. normally 30mW would cost you $100-$200. you can get them here:
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.11018
I used to have a 50mw one which I bought for £30 UK Pounds (about $60 US Dollars) but then after finding out there is a potential risk with the infrared radiation I sold it for £45 (about $90 US Dollars) lol.
But have you seen the 100mw ones? They can light matches aswell and burn black objects!
Oh and also, in the UK they are ALOT cheaper than $100-$200 dollars! Thats like £50-£100 for something worth £10-£15!
I have the 50mW from dealextreme, it can melt dark plastic like electrical tape.
Not the best quality, probably not quite 50mW, but they're damn fun
I recieved my 283mW RED!!! i will soon make a youtube video and upload it!

id write more about it but , hey its xda ...
craigslist is ok for local selling/purchasing of junk. The problem is that everyone wants to lowball your already low low price.
Example: I had a guitar that is worth $800.00 I put it up on CL for $400.00 and people were still trying to either trade it for firewood (i.e. junk guitars) or try and get it for $350.00.
But another good example is I had an Apple 3g - and I was able to sell it for $200.00 no issues. So essentially I had it for free for the 2yrs I owned it.
... so as long as your dealing local and your a hardass - its not bad for selling stuff. Just don't try and purchase out of your area.
And stay away from the personals (which I think they closed anyways) Thats where all the Chester's are hiding with their candies and ice cream.
craigslist is the place where you transact and get killed.
Its the greates place on earth for a high schooler to find used cars.

anyone heard of the craigslist killer?? no?? ok
It's pretty much the best thing ever. I buy/sell all of my phones on CL. Just sold my 6 month old Evo for $300 cash, then turned around and bought a Nexus S for $400. Ironically, I later found out the guy I bought the NS from is a fellow XDA-er.
Yea I saw it on TV. What an asshole that dude was

Meaning I got screwed or the guy who bought it did? Between you and me, I'm pretty sure I took him for a ride, it was probably only worth $200-250. I used it for a solid 6 months and it had a couple bumps and bruises.

Maybe, seems like the ones above $300 are either new or very new (within a month), I got mine the first day they went on sale. I'm happy with the 3 i got, maybe I could've gotten $350, but what's another $50.

Hey I'm kind of considering trading my gs2 skyrocket for a nokia n9 64 gb either in black or blue.
I know I'm forsaking LTE and android, but honestly the n9 does everything I need it to do in a simpler and more battery efficient manner, as well as having a superior design and more compact size. Also lack of apps isn't a big deal to me I don't game on my phone beyond the occasional angry birds.
So anyone in the Los Angeles/Glendale area wanna do this trade?
Some of your thoughts on this would be nice.
I could also sell my gs2 skyrocket to some in the aforementioned area for like 500$ ish I guess with my accessories then buy the n9 off like amazon or something, ebay maybe.
500 is a good price you are getting, they sell for 350-400 on xda marketplace..

I recently got $300 for designing 2 websites, and as the title states, what should I buy with it? Obviously it's what I want(hehe I knew someone was going to say that) but I would love to hear you guys' opinions. It has to be something non-phone related as I am in my crucial years of high school plus if I get a phone I will become addicted to it. Oh and I have a flip phone:laugh:
I already have a laptop w/Windows 8+Hackintosh dual booting and with good specs so not really in need of a laptop or desktop(Already have a family PC that I built and it plays today's.games at medium-high @1080p).
So go ahead, tell me what you think I should get

If you don't really need anything right now just save it until you have an idea. I don't know about your situation and if you're going to college and if financial aid/parents/etc will cover your costs - but that $300 will be eaten up very quickly and it's fantastic to be able to start saving before you get there if you're not getting "all expenses paid and more".
Of course, it's always nice to treat yourself! You said no phones, but what about something cheap like a Nexus One ? Buy that, save the rest. You will find a smartphone VERY useful for college, especially if you will be moving out and doubly so if you're going to be in a new area. Learn to use it now and be ready!
