Hey guys what's going on?

BUT SERIOUSLY

I finally registered, not because I particularly want to (I would have preferre to lurk forever) but because I

a) realised I'd never chat with the IC:TO 'massiv' if I didn't

and

b) I got Guitar Hero II with TWO GUITARS and A DELICIOUS KATAMARI CAKE for my birthday



SADLY HOWEVER

c) the cake is almost completely eaten

d) MY PS2's FUCKING DRIVE BROKE FFS

So my question to you is -

My PS2 is chipped. Where is the best (read: cheapest) place to get the drive replaced? The shop down at Eglinton quoted "60-70" dollars, but I was hoping Pacific Mall might do it cheaper (like in the $50 range.)

Do you think that's likely? Shitting fuck I want to play Guitar Hero.

BTW

Lestrade, did you give up on the charity idea? Maybe next year?

For everyone's attention:

Pacific Mall stone cold sucks for PS2 laser replacement; everyone wanted between $80 to $100 and didn't even have the fucking parts in stock. I'm going to try my luck with the place in Eglinton tommorow, probably. I'd like to have it fixed before Christmas, as unlikely as that is. Or at least before the end of the year, anyway.

I mean I have some fucking Guitar Hero II to play, people!

Hey Mat, I was going to buy a PS2 soon anyways (it's about time eh?). I'm not sure how long Gamarama will take, but if you want I could let you break mine in for me while yours is out for repairs. Or maybe someone else is feeling generous?

I'm being forced to work christmas day, boxing day, and new years, so it would feel good to know someone out there has an actual holiday during which they can... have a holiday.


I'll see what Gamerama say tommorow and get back to you - it sure would be nice to have the PS2 for the christmas period as I have friends visiting from Scotland who would obviously want to ROCK OUT

Ed I won't be able to make this one, but we'll see about something early in the new year, hopefully. My plans for next week are still kind of... Up in the air.

GOOD NEWS THOUGH

Gamerama fixed my PS2 by today! I was able to trade games to pay off the cost of the repair ($70) too! I haven't really tried it out very hard (slightly scared) but It at least boots games now. Might consider finding out how annoying/expensive it is to fit a hard drive so I don't have to wear this lazer out too...

Actually, does anyone want to do anything on the 13th? I'm going to be at a real loose end.

Ach, is this for the 22nd or the 13th? turns out I'm better if we stick with the original plan.

Okay, so I'm fairly set to do something on Thursday; nothing should come up last minute. I suggest we GUITAR HERO SHIT UP.

I have 2 guitars and both games, people could come to mine but I'm northerly and I rarely leave the house so I'll put it to the floor where anyone wants to go - if no one else sez "my place is ideal" we can go to mine.

I can also bring Wii controllers (3!) and Wii games other folks might not have (Play, Wario Ware, etc.)

Let's rock!

I have committed. I'll bring some Wii stuff - I have a classic controller and several Wii controllers so I can bring those, and a few games.

Yeah, I've forgotten/lost your exact address/buzzer code. I remember exactly where you are but I don't want to walk in the wrong door, as it were.

What time is good for you, btw, man?
