GameStop's GTA IV midnight launch mega-list

Apr 25th 2008 11:29AM (Joystiq)
The purpose of Pre-Orders for the game store isn't to make interest on your $5, it is to more accurately predict demand for buying and allocating a title.

The $5 is always refundable, so the Pre-Order doesn't really cost anything.

I always Pre-Order anything I'm interested in, there's no reason to drive all over town looking for the game I want when I could have a copy waiting behind the counter for me- not to mention get a call to remind me when the game comes out.

I don't understand all of the negative feelings toward Pre-Orders (although I certainly understand them toward GameStop specifically)

How to use your laptop as a free Xbox / Xbox 360 wireless adapter

Jan 6th 2008 2:27PM (Engadget)
I picked up the wireless adapter for $59 used @ GameCrazy - it was certainly worth the $60 to me. I actually use the Wireless A it includes and it streams HDTV from my Media Center perfectly! I'd always prefer to just use a cat5e cable for gaming- but since my TV is a different floor from my internet connection it just wasn't worth it to run a cable.

Don't mess with a Connection sharing with a laptop - too much trouble, and too much lag- Just pick up the adapter. It works flawlessly, w/o any extra power adapter needed - just attach it and forget about it.

I like the idea of only paying for things I need rather than having everything built in - I'm certainly glad I didn't have to pay for a built in HD-DVD player!
