Why do people keep posting their steam purchases? You made me go buy BFBC2 pack now! :grumpy:
 
Because Steam is awesome and cheap!

I just brought like, 5 games for less than one PS3 or 360 game. Again, tell me, why do I own both of those? :p

When I realized how much cheaper computer gaming can be I went and bought this thing. Now I've got 20 games for PC. The only two games I've bought in the last 3 years for PS3 were Fallout 3 and GT5.
 
Ordered a pair of these:

You nerdy fitness buff you!
 
those shoes look so damn weird. I've heard people talk about them for a while now. I need to try them.

Last thing I bought? Groceries.

:lol: so far from the truth, I've never been into fitness stuff, but I find wearing sandals and flip-flops a no go so these fit the bill as a lightweight alternative...

Plus they are such an odd alternative I had to.

Yeh I saw guy with a pair on in town the other week and I found them intriguing, then after reading a bit more I decided to get them because of the reasons above.

The second most stupidly justified item in the fitness world (1st place is shake'a'weight).

I hope you find value in them, but I would ask you try not to fall for the marketing tosh.

[EDIT] Sorry, should have read on. If you're not using them for fitness but as an alternative then enjoy talking to interested strangers! 👍

Agreed on the fitness angle, I don't do any sports or fitness but I love wearing no shoes, most of the time at home I will wear nothing on my feet. So if I can get away with wearing the minimum at work too (Flip-flops are banned) then I will get allot of wear out of them.

How close do they feel to just being barefoot?

Do you mind me asking where you got that and how much? Wondering if I can get it cheaper than what they sell it for on their website.

I imagine they feel a lot like being barefoot, except without all the pebbles and splinters stabbing you in the foot. Ever had to walk across a bunch of those fertilizer pebbles? It's like a mine field!

I will let you know when they arrive, they should be with me in the next few days.

From the reviews I have read the feeling is very close to barefoot because of the sole been very flexible. 👍

I got it at the Lego store we have here at a local mall, it was $99.99. You could probably find it cheaper on the internet.

Funny thing is, the online lego store says "Sorry, item is not available in this country: United States."

Really? I thought the online play was pretty boring... Maybe I haven't played it enough...

Still feel that the last good Battlefield was Battlefield 2.

I bought BC2 a few weeks ago on steam for $20 and yesterday it was $5.. Ugh I should of known.

Last night and this morning I splurged on games since the last few years I haven't bought much outside of WoW time codes...

Bioshock $5
Bioshock 2 $5
Just Cause 2 $13 (Delayed this one too long... I loved #1)
Red Faction: Guerrilla $20 I think
COD MW2 $20

and a few weeks ago I bought BF BC2.. I'll be busy on my computer while we go through these stupid heat waves. :)
 
Steam's servers are taking a pounding; I can't download Portal! :mad:

Blur has lame ass controller mapping. It's either use the 360 controller or a pre-configured keyboard layout, of which you cannot customize. And there's no wheel support....now I have to buy a damn wired 360 controller. POS.

EDIT: As an aside, I'm seriously considering hitting up my folks for the Assassin's Creed Collection, THQ Hit Collection, and the Valve Complete Pack. That's like 1,000 games for $100-something. I. Hate. Steam.
