Ianoid's Shopping Picks

[ianoid]

Not to step on GAC's toes, I definitely won't post stuff that he posts. I do see other deals to post. So check out his thread (http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=127544)and then check mine if you want to see some additional stuff. I spend too much time shopping not to post a few links here and there. The goal is to aggregate stuff that DP'ers might be interested in and good deals you might otherwise miss. Some of it will be games, some will be other stuff.

Fraggle Rock complete series 96 episodes (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002LYD2LW?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B002LYD2LW">Fraggle Rock: Complete Series Collection</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=thrstoarm-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B002LYD2LW" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;)

Gold box today only - $37.49. Totally watched this when I was a kid, on HBO. Why was there no video game made for this show?

Also, check out this free song by proto-punk synth engineers, the Units:

Units free song (<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002OY3QNI?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B002OY3QNI">High Pressure Days</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=thrstoarm-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B002OY3QNI" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" />)

They have other free songs up too, but that High Pressure Days track sounds a bit like Talking Heads and it's pretty solid.

Awesome, already love the thread as you reminded me of a show I had all but forgotten, hope i'm noy horrified by revisiting. :D

Regardless, great deal.

Boxwave free iPhone 4 case (http://www.boxwave.com/products/colorsplash/apple-iphone-4-colorsplash-case_3968.htm)

I just ordered one. It's a limit of one per order. If I had more time I'd have explored their products more, which is pretty much why they do deals like this. But in the meantime, I'll take a cheap ass case for my new phone.

LA Noir for $59.99 - $10 gaming gift credit = $49.99 new Rockstar franchise coming out 9/1/2010 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003JBHG7C?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003JBHG7C">LA Noire</a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=thrstoarm-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B003JBHG7C" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;)

Microsoft points 1600 for $16.54 - near parity with the penny is about the best you can hope for. (http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?lt1=_blank&bc1=000000&IS2=1&bg1=FFFFFF&fc1=000000&lc1=0000FF&t=thrstoarm-20&o=1&p=8&l=as1&m=amazon&f=ifr&md=10FE9736YVPPT7A0FBG2&asins=B001GK4G26)

The Bird and the Bee - Rayguns are not just the future - This album is excellent. Pretty much every track is good. As long as your requirement for music is not guitars. (http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?lt1=_blank&bc1=000000&IS2=1&bg1=FFFFFF&fc1=000000&lc1=0000FF&t=thrstoarm-20&o=1&p=8&l=as1&m=amazon&f=ifr&md=10FE9736YVPPT7A0FBG2&asins=B001PE6OSC" style="width:120px;height:240px;)

1600 Microsoft Points still $16.54 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001GK4G26?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B001GK4G26)

Some cheap Amazon MP3 downloads. You can get these to automatically be added to your iTunes library pretty easily. Don't fear the downloader program, it works pretty well and is not bloatware. I buy all my MP3s from Amazon because they have serious sales, unlike iTunes. Consider:

Arcade Fire's Neon Bible for $5.99 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000U7VTCG?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000U7VTCG)
Canadians do emo-alt-rock. Really good slightly older album. Songs you've probably heard. Another album, Funeral (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000U7XUKK?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000U7XUKK) is available for $5.

Gorillaz - Plastic Beach for $5 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003A9OVS0?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003A9OVS0)
The co-conspiritors on this album include Mark E Smith (of the Fall), Lou Reed, De La Soul, etc. I can't believe an album less than 6 months old is on Amazon for $5! Score!

Radiohead's Amnesiac for $5.99 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000SXMS54?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000SXMS54)
Um, Radiohead are pretty good. If you haven't heard the Kid-A and later material, come out from under your Rock and check it out. Intense.

Hail to the Thief - Radiohead $5 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000SXOK0A?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000SXOK0A)
I like Amnesiac better, but at this price, it's easily worth it.


Black Keys - Thickfreakishness $5.99 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001GXTXTO?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B001GXTXTO)
Like the reincarnation of a lo-fi Led Zepplin.

The Shins - Wincing the Night Away $5 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000YN32TY?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000YN32TY)
Seriously worth it. Poppy, catchy, without being the least bit boring.


And then here's the all $5 Amazon MP3 album links, (http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Ffeatur e.html%3Fie%3DUTF8%26ref_%3Damb%5Flink%5F353463802 %5F3%26docId%3D1000371251&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957) tons to browse.

Red Dead Redemption at Amazon for $45 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001SEQWXQ?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B001SEQWXQ)

Been playing this a lot and it's good for 30-40 hours if you can get some online time in and do side missions and waste time. The main story is only about 15 hours. Since I don't mind gambling and hunting and doing other junk, it was a good value for me when I got it at retail for like $50.

Excellent summary of DLC sale this week- I'm definitely going to pick up a bunch of this RB2 content: Plus MegaMan 10 is on sale, although I'm not that Mega Manly.

Fallout New Vegas - if you were thinking of pre-ordering (and I did in a previous sale), this Walmart deal isn't bad: $59.99 with $10 gift card, making it similar to $50. Each different vendor will include codes for in-game items. Walmart doesn't mention what they will include. So far, Gamestop's armor, gun, canteen and stimpacks looks better than Amazon's armor and machette. Best buy looks to have a mercenary pack with armor and a gun. I'm debating whether to pre-order the collector's version, but since almost all of those go on sale within 6 months of release, it's hard to convince myself to pay full price.

MGMT - Oracular Spectacular - fantastic album - $5 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00138F080?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00138F080)

Modest Mouse - Good News for People who Love Bad News - another great release from the Mouse. $5 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0013AQKR8?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B0013AQKR8)

So it's not a game.

Braedy Bunch gold bo $58.99 every episode (http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fgoldbo x%3Fie%3DUTF8%26ref_%3Dpe%5F36900%5F16227870&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=390957)

DJ Hero Renegade Ed $64.90 at Amazon (http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=thrstoarm-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B002BHXR4G)

I 'bought' this at full price, but when I checked what I paid, it looks like I had $150 in credits, to explain the full price purchase. It's a pretty good game that I play occasionally. Certainly inspiration not to buy special editions in monstrous packages until they drop in price.

And once again, it's B2G1 used at Gamestop.

For the number of songs and content, even for a rehash music game, this is a great deal.

Star Wars Clone Wars for 360. Absurdly cheap at under $7. Perhaps your kids will like it? (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002ABVM54?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B002ABVM54)

Pre-order Rockband 3 at Amazon for $59.99, get $10 Game Credit and in game guitar (Xbox 360) (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003RRXW0I?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003RRXW0I)

Pre-Order Rock Band 3 at Amazon for $59.99, get $10 Game Credit and in game guitar (PS3) (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003RRXW0I?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003RRXW0I)

If you pre-order Rockband 3 at Gamestop, you get a Talking Heads song and a New Order song, but I'll take the no tax and $10 off from Amazon instead and just buy them with cheap points (see above post for $16.54 for 1600 MS points).


I'm most anticipating Rockband 3, Fable 3 ($20 Amazon Game Credit) (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003NHRDPW?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003NHRDPW) and Fallout New Vegas(Xbox 360 (ttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003JBHG6I?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003JBHG6I) or PS3 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003JBHG6I?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003JBHG6I), both $56.99 with $10 Amazon Game Credit). I really shouldn't buy any other games this holiday season, but it's SO HARD not to.

Free Music Sampler Yep Roc (indie rock) (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003VEBNOY?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003VEBNOY)

And this is probably the best way to play the game, minus the touch screen mini games. Better graphics and best controls.

Nintendo DS Tecmo Bowl $12.47 - lowest price yet, supposedly quite similar to the original (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00198PO6W?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00198PO6W)

Assuming that Kinect works.


Tony Hawk Ride for all three consoles $50. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002HEIDWO?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B002HEIDWO) If you go into this expecting little, you may enjoy it. I like it, and it's a bit of exercise to play. I think that if you are vaguely interested, it's worth checking out at this price, considering the sequel should be better. It's not skateboarding.

I think they sold out of both Bioshock PS3 and 360 Limited Edition. Kind of makes me wish I'd bought one, but then again, I have mixed feelings since I can't crack them. You know, collector.

I have gotten into Battlefield Bad Company 2 recently. I don't really play Black Ops or Modern Warfare. They are too twitchy for my old man hands. BFBC2 really encourages teaming up with friends or making friends to get stuff done. Plus rolling in a tank with a friend is bliss. You can spawn right on your friends when you die so you miss less of the action. You don't have to deal with the sensation of spawn-die-spawn-die-spawn-die. Buy this, then friend me on Xbox live and we'll play. I play short sessions a few nights a week. You don't have to play it religeously to play well (score wise) or have fun. The unlocks for online are great. Check it out.

Ultimate edition includes a code to download every map pack released up to now. Not sure if it includes the recently released Vietnam.

Amazon Battlefield Bad Company 2 for $29.99 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003VWGBBG?ie=UTF8&tag=thrstoarm-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B003VWGBBG)

I gotta give BC2 another shot. I played for a few days when I was heavily into MW2 but couldn't get into it. Now I'm burnt-out on MW2 and I despise Black Ops, so I'm looking for a new FPS to play. If I pick it up again, I'll send you a friend request Ianoid.

I'm still trying to get people to play BFBC. It would be awesome to play it with you, if you ever got around to it. It's my favorite online game to play with friends, evar.
