I got my wireless router from www.umart.com.au. It's a linksys wrg54g or something close to that. I saw it advertised in the WOW sight and sound catalogue for $69, that's very cheap for a good router! Let me know if you want any advice on them, I've done heaps of searching for good ones.

Yes Big W refused to refund the game, I am never EVER going to shop there (unless if its the only one in 1000km, but thats beside the point). Damn i need to chill, too much pessimism.

Hmm, I was going to try get RE4 again today (along with trading some other wii games so I have sufficient funds). But no, NO NO NO, god must hate me. It seems that my little brother is "sick" and now im stuck home all day looking after him. I dont think he is sick at all, that little thing must have faked it in the morning. Plus I had to wake up at the ungodly hour of 6 AM!!! Eugh he is jumping all over me now, his breath smells of chocolate.

Oceanic, send me some friend vouchers and ill send you some in return. Its looking good!

EDIT: the clock system in this servor is completely screwed up. The above post was requested at Today, 12:28 AM, and mine was requested at Today, 11:06 AM. HOW DOES THAT WORK!!

EDIT: Oh now that you mention it, hmmm i wonder what oceanic would be doing so early in the morning..........

Ok sorry but it does make sense 12:28am is 28 minutes past midnight, midnight being the start of a new day and you posted at 11:06am which is near midday, at midday its 12:00pm. Hopefully that made sense...

Anyhoo SMG just go the 60 stars and I got to say if that's the final I'm a bit disappointed. Oh yeah spoiler tags:

Apollo, check out your nearest EB. I grabbed RE4 from them in Perth for $59, and have since seen it at a few other stores at the same price. Hope that might lessen your pain somewhat.

The pricetag at EB's is somewhat high, I am trying to get it for perhaps $20 cheaper as it is essentially an enhanced port. I dont mind if its secondhand or not. Last time I saw a copy at JB HI FI in the city it was for $46 secondhanded. I would only use EB's as a last resort because it is simply expensive and the nearest store is rather far. Thanks for the advice though.

I saw it at Big W (I know I'm not helping) for $78. I was tempted to buy it - but instead I got Metroid Prime 3. I looked in EB Games too and I saw RE4 for about the same price as Big W - however, EBs was secondhand.

I went to JB's today, and looked for Metroid Prime 3, but I couldn't find it ANYWHERE. I didn't think it sold that well, and there were about 50, (yes, 50), SMG games. I don't know if I missed it or what, but I was damn pissed off.

I tell you a game I'm thinking of buy; The Witcher. After watching the Video review of Gametrailers I've become quite interested in this. But how much do PC Games cost these days, about the same as console games?

They tend to cost less, but make sure they are playable on your pc

EDIT: so why not get SMG? Its by FAR better than Metroid Prime 3

You can obtain wiipoints from over the counter at various stores (EB's, Walmart, depends where you live). Or they are available through the wiishop channel and are purchased using your credit/visa/debit card. This method is safe, unless if you have an unencrypted connection.

The cost varies on the amount of wiipoints you purchase, here in australia its $25 every 1000 i think.

Enjoying Galaxy there, kill bill fan?

I'm planning on getting a new laptop - just so I can play more PC games. Most don't like my computer. They still play on it, but not fast enough for my liking.

Im quite happy with mine, but I want a newer video card, 8800GTS doesnt cut it.
I use PC for 'hardcore gaming' and Wii for... softcore(?) gaming.
