Hey, let's check out some popular games on Australian Steam. 

Please remember all Steam prices, no matter where you are, are in USD. The US Steam prices (to the best of my knowledge or my ability to remember to switch stores) are in [square brackets]. 

Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 2 - $89.99 [$59.99]
Sid Meier's Civilization® V (Preorder) - $79.99 [$49.99]
Mass Effect 2 Digital Deluxe Edition - $79.99 [$59.99]
Borderlands - $79.99 [$29.99]
Dragon Age: Origins, Digital Deluxe Edition - $79.99 [$39.99]
Metro 2033 - $79.99 [$49.99]
Battlefield: Bad Company™ 2 - $69.99 [$49.99]
Boring Old regular Mass Effect 2 without bells/whistles - $69.99 [$39.99]
Blur - $64.99 [$39.99]


Oh, and that old classic, CoD4:MW is $49.99 [$29.99], which is a lot better than the $99.95AUD Xbox Live's Games on Demand is asking for. (US Live's G-on-D seems to be $39.99USD) 

Hope none of you missed that awesome Steam sale. Maybe one day they'll make a stand against publishers/retailers again. We can only hope.

Okay, so I did some searches and read through all of those awesome bombcast breakdowns by Matthew but he's only up to E3 2008 and I'm pretty sure it would have been after E3 2009. 
 
The guys were talking about Sony's motion controller. They'd seen what it looked like and were trying to think what it would be named (or what they should name it while waiting for a name to be announced). 
 
Brad said 'How 'bout the threemote (3mote)' to which Ryan groaned and went on to say 'This has been the last giantbomb bombcast. Gonna shut these lights off and I'm gonna go home and cry.' Or something very similiar. 
 
I skipped through some of the ones directly after E3 but either I skipped over it somehow or yeah, I'm way off.

Oh, I thought you meant you were purposely going for the 'no-one survives' ending. Something I tried three times for and just couldn't get some of those bastards to die. Especially Shepard, resilient bastard.
  
Everyone survived my first run, wasn't even trying for that but hey.

@StickyMicky:
If you want to use proof-read as two words, you need a hyphen. Adding 'these items' is redundant as you have already stated 'these news snippets'. The comma is not really needed. You don't need a space before your question mark. 
 
He wrote an entire article whereas you wrote one sentence. Think about that. :)

If you're willing to sink a couple more hours into finding those last orbs, you could just follow this guide here. 
 
Even if you watch then pause at every one and run your guy there to check, it shouldn't take more than 2 hours. Keep in mind the guy is doing it with keys of the city on, which is why occasionally he'll make a jump that you just can't and will have to find your own way up.

I always got the feeling that if it was before the 'lock in date' then it's probably because they don't know. A lot of things will change before they etch it into stone (or you know, disc) and rather than say something then be completely contradicted three months later or even worse not until the game ships they just shut up.
 
Only Peter Molyneux seems able to say whatever they want regardless of how the game actually ships and (somewhat) get away with it. 
 
(Though if the game's been printed and almost shipped then yeah, fuck those guys, answer the damn questions.)

Didn't you say you got the full 1000? Then you must have it.

@WoodenPlatypus: 
57 people with their live accounts synched to GB that registered as having this game do not have the rarest achievement of Hit Counter of 50. If anything, consider your game went better than theirs. :)

If you have one of those commercial printers lying around (not like the massive printing press kind, but like office/university kind), they use the large paper so to have proper layout and will even professionally glue/staple (your choice) it for you before spitting it out.

@yinstarrunner:
But that wouldn't work because you kill yourself before your timeline let's you save Barisov. As messy as time may or may not be, shooting yourself nullifies everything after that with a cancellation rather than straight out finish, because otherwise you wouldn't be alive to shoot yourself. What time should have reverted to was standing in that room with the stalin head before the timewave hits you, thus begining the implied eternal circle, assuming the wave is triggered again.
