Played the Asura's Wrath and Choplifter HD demoes.

AW is basically "QTE: The Game" with playable bits in between.

The crazy shit that goes down is worth one play of the demo; if nothing else than to fight on the fuckin' MOON.

Choplifter is 'fly here, pick up dudes, earn high scores, don't run out of gas."

Neither is worth asking price but Choplifter is the more fun of the two.

Yeah, I would really like to get Choplifter because I loved playing the Master System version back in the day. But that asking price is laughable.

I'm sure no one else here has it but the Survival Mode in Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon is a ton of fun. It;s hard as fuck though but it supports SIX players which I assume why.

Man...Dead Space 2 was fucking great. I have no earthly idea where they are going to go with the story bit if they keep up with the gameplay improvements I don't really care. Those that have played the DLC :is it worth it?

The DLC is only about an hour or two long, but it's also only $7. I enjoyed it. It does add a little backstory and open up some possibilities about the plot of the next installment in the series.

Anyone have experience upgrading the HDD in their PS3?

I'm going to be buying a bigger hard drive and was hoping to find some affordable options.

I might just have to pick that up. 6 players could be fun as shit.

Finally finished the Back to the Future series. Definitely an enjoyable story, and it was nice to see Michael J. Fox lend his voice in the last episode. It'll be interesting to see if Telltale does a sequel.

If you have PS+, download it and give it a try while it's still free.

I have fios. Never had a problem with it at all.

I did and it was surprisingly easy. I pulled up a tutorial video on YouTube and followed it step by step. The worst part was removing the old HDD from it's tray. They aren't kidding when they say that the screws holding it in are unbelievably easy to strip. It;s like they are made from platinum.

I honestly wish Sony would release a 500GB PS3. Like a dummy when I upgraded my HDD I went with a 320GB. The only way I'm upgrading at this point is to get a new slim console but it;s pointless when they all come with the same HDD size I already have. I've also heard that the transfer process now between consoles it;s a fucking breeze on PS3. All you apparently have to do is connect the consoles via an ethernet cable and use the data transfer utility. No stupid fucking transfer proprietary transfer cable like i=on 360.

I guess this isn't very surprising after the recent Sears/Kmart store closing announcement, but it looks like the Kmart Gamer program is on hold indefinitely.

Hey all, as you can probably tell, KmartGamer is a bit on pause right now while we figure some stuff up. I will potentially no longer be managing this account. I hope this is more of a see you later than goodbye. Thank you all for the support, it has meant the world to me.
