Came here after all of the craziness for Megaman in Brawl on Smash Boards. After hearing about how fun the community was from Pluvius (a former member) and Viewtiful Ben (to a lesser extent), I made my way here and loved it since day 1.

Well, I'd say go with an iPod Touch, unless your dead set on having the phone/all in one device.  Cept for the phone & camera, the iPod Touch can pretty much do all the things the iPhone can, and it has more memory too.

I agree with this really. Until AT&T gets their rate plans in order, the iPhone itself gets a new/better camera with flash, or more memory, it's really a better idea to have the 32GB touch & 1 or 2 extra gadgets.

Still it all depends on whether or not the all in one aspect of things is necessary to you.

Gaming / Wal-Mart Enters The Video Game Resale Market with Vending Machines

« on: May 18, 2009, 05:20:54 AM »

And since I'm kinda not up to detailing the hell out of this, here's a copypaste from GAF:

Just saw this at CAG, pictures at site:

Trade Used Games at Walmart

Does it sounds so strange? Not really when you think about it, this is Wal-Mart after all. Most people are unaware at the moment, but Wal-Mart is now accepting used games to trade for credit.

Just a few hours ago, I went to the one near my house and was quite surprised at what I saw. Apparently they had a installed a new vending machine less than a day ago which allows you to trade in your used PS2, PS3, X-Box, 360 and Wii games.

The machine looks extremely similiar to the Redbox DVD rental machines. When I went to use the machine, however, it still had more than a few bugs that need fixing. The first issue occurs right after you login. When logging in, you are asked to scan your games. However once you do so, there is a glitch that logs you out immidiately entering your information. After you log back in, the issue seems to repeats itself.

An additional issue is that it seems that the machine is unable to scan games. I took a few of my games to test it out. Final Fantasy 12, Godfather 2, Mirror's Edge, Ractchet and Clank, Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando and Burnout 3: Takedown. However one game, Mirror's Edge, did indeed get scanned but i got a pop-up message which stated that game was not in its database.

In the end, all the bugs and glitches prevented me from trading in any of my games and customer service was closed at the time so I was out on my own. But still, if there is one business out there to give Gamespot some competition, it's the giant Wal-Mart. We'll be writing further on the issue about why we think Wal-Mart has the power to steal Gamestop's limelight in the used game market.
