Come on, let's kick some a!

I pre-ordered TLR PC version because dammit, I'll play it, somehow! And it's only £25 on Amazon rather than the RRP £35.

Currently eyeing this system (although the DVI-only output is not ideal). I just need to make up my damn mind and press the "buy" button. It's not like I can't afford it. I just feel bad spending money. >>

Of course, I've spent lunch time at Currys Digital looking at TVs, too.* OTZ I feel a bit bad because the current one is only two years old, but I've moved house and the new place demands a bigger screen! But I'll see what my dad has to say after he comes to see my house. He knows much more about TVs than I do. (We've been talking about letting my sister have mine and me getting a shinier one...) Hahaha who knows, maybe he'll decide to buy me one...

* Funny enough, the LG ones looked better than the Sonys and Panasonics. Though it's highly likely that the shop just didn't bother with fiddling with the adjustsments before they put the TVs on display, and LGs are are lot easier to set up than other bigger, better brands.

Also...
MICHAEL JACKSON. O2 ARENA. JULY. TICKETS ON SALE THIS FRIDAY. £50-75. AM I GOING TO TRY TO GET TICKET? FUCKING YES.

[edit] Forgot to say: Cheese Fondue (current title of WIP because IT'S SO FUCKING CHEESY) turned out to be a fic all about Allan. What? Oi, Allan, YOU'RE JUST A SIDE CHARACTER, SO STAY ON THE SIDE AND STOP DEVELOPING YOUR OWN PLOT. STOP. IT'S NOT CUTE.

It's hard to say... do game software prices fall really quickly where you are, or is it usually better deal when you preorder?

Heh. XD My current TV is actually a LG! Nothing wrong with it really. I just wondered why the shop didn't try to make their more expensive merchandise look better!

Pricing depends on any number of things to which I don't pay attention. I know that pre-ordering here can be either cheaper or more expensive; it just depends. I did notice the pre-order price is as low as the XBox price is (it's already gone down $20 since I bought it D<). It's already less expensive than some of the other PC games that I've gotten over the last couple of years. Neverwinter Nights 2 was evil in terms of cost when I got it.

Marketing is beyond me because I don't think that way, but I'm sure there's a reason behind the seemingly bad idea to let the less expensive items outshine the rest. They could be trying to unload some overstock or something.
