Disney Infinity is on sale again at Target, but not as good a sale. Single figs are $9.99 and i was stoked to see that DISCS are $2.49 a pack!!!
Jump on board, and join the Disney Infinity movement!

Shouldn't you be handing out pamphlets with your bicycle?

Damn, and here I was thinking we might have been rid of him.

[Turo602]

You'd think with all the games he gets he'd have something else to talk about other than Disney Infinity.

Finally signed up for Gamer's Club Unlocked. I figured that with the wealth of stuff on the horizon, it's going to save me a ton of money over the next two years. Since they lowered the price to $30 it's really something any US gamer should be looking into. Discount also works on amiibo/disney infinity/skylanders/LEGO Dimensions figures. Stacks on top of sale prices.

I reasoned that I could almost make up for the $30 with two games to start. So I got Splatoon and The Witcher 3 (PS4).

My roommate has been playing Splatoon the most, so I can't give a lot of impressions about it other than I love the art design, music and enjoyable multiplayer. There's still a ton about it I need to absorb.

Witcher 3 had me hooked all weekend. Spending way too much time playing the Gwent minigame and loving it to pieces. The combat is a bit more challenging than I imagined, still getting it down. Balancing your spell use along with your other combat maneuvers and mastering your dodging and blocking is essential, you can't mash your way to success. Reminds me of Souls/Bloodborne in that sense, although it's a bit more forgiving.

I really wanted to hold off on Witcher 3 until I build a new PC later this year, but I just couldn't do it. The game still looks very good on PS4, so I'm not regretting it. Some games, like Arkham Knight, are definitely being put off until then though -- while it does pain me some to wait, I'll benefit from the price drops.

I can't decide on whether or not I want to buy Witcher 3... It looks gorgeous but I'm not always a big RPG or hack & slash person. I didn't like playing Skyrim or Dragon Age and most of those style games I enjoy watching my husband play but I'm not invested enough to play. But... the Witcher 3 looks like it has enough of a hook for me that I'm interested. My problem is that I don't know... I just keep watching youtube videos and sitting on my fence, lol.

Okay, so this week-end it dawned on me that Disney Infinity 3.0 is coming out a WEEK before Lego Dimensions! Way to beat them to the punch! Still, I am perplexed. Should I even get into Lego Dimensions? I mean, I have never played Skylanders yet. The newest Skylanders is a racing game. Are all of the Skylanders games completely different?
I am so stoked about 3.0!
I finally played Mortal Kombat yesterday...HATE IT!!! Trying to pull-off some of those Kombos is just too annoying.
Also, got some new DI!!! and something called Ameba? Amibo? I don't have the game, nor a WII, but love Samus.


OH! And I got more Skylanders...i need to eventually PLAY this game! I thought I posted about this, but here they are:
Skylanders in the package

Skylanders used set

Anyone here play Skylanders?

Guys, if you don't like Powder, just block him. I did, and I never see any of his posts. I have no idea what that post above your's says, and don't care, honestly. I know some people are just so rude that they get you down, but don't let it get to you. You don't have to be rude about it, and I'm pretty sure that you are violating the forum rules by being anti-social. It's borderline if not completely bullying. Just block him. No reason to complain about people. This is a forum for talking about GAMES, not people. Live and let live.


speaking of blocking...just blocking another troll right now....

[The Stryker]

He was talking about YOU homie.

Also. You completely hate MK because doing combos is too hard but love Infinity? Ok then. Ok.

I'm sure he knew it was about him, the guy is just crazy.

It's a membership at Best Buy. Gives you 20% off new games and $10 certificates for preordering and buying certain games on a list. I've been a member for a while, too, and renewed it until 2018.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Edit: ok so I'm a member of Best Buy Reward Zone so it's pretty well the same thing.

I was talking about you. Why aren't we rid of you yet? I thought you were leaving.

Isn't that exactly what you're doing right now, champ? It's on your profile, in this thread, you do a lot of it. Just because one person asked you to tidy up your image-heavy posts for the sake of common courtesy you went on a tirade. You get the respect you give, Ojiisan.

Got two sets of Marvel 2.0 Disney Infinity today while at Target, here are the discs I got:

Now I can use some new power in the KILN, or on the Survival mode.
That's the great thing about Disney Infinity, there are so many different games in the collection, and of course so many characters you can be.

I sincerely hope you're joking with this comment. What would anyone be jealous of?

[Netkeeper]

No, you're annoying the piss out of us with long posts that need to get modscreened. At this point you are intentionally trying to anger us but you're just playing dumb about it, and since you are actually stupid, people fall for it.
