Solid I'd say, there are parts where it lags a little in the second act, but the payout for each major story point feels eventful.Quote:

I'd say the best part of the games is the different witcher contracts, most of them are all very well fleshed out in my opinion.
I'm not as bad as I was over the weekend it's been tapering down since.Quote:

The background colour of the cover isn't green either, it's blue.
....so its the UK version, made in the netherlands and SOMEHOW finds it way to australia?...there is some quantum fuckery going on there :SQuote:

This has an Aussie rating sticker slapped on it so it's a legit import from back then (the rating sticker is an old type from the 90's).
Made in the Netherlands and it's English & German languages.
10pm and it's still hot outside >.>
Guess I'll be running the ac until midnight at least.
Did you play the penis game yet? I know you were waiting for the AU release. :wacko:
Does playing with my own penis count? It's an old release tho the gfx are quite poor :(Quote:

It's not automated by a temp. setting?Quote:

Yeah there is a fast travel that you're going to want to liberally abuse during the second half of the game. However, you can only fast travel from one signpost to another in the game, there are plenty of them all over the place but it is still a minor nuisance to run over to one, then fast travel one near where you need to be, then run to your final destination.Quote:

Hurray for mods :wacko:.Quote:

does this look legit? https://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...9SIA4V26PS3014
is it worth the price shipping?

Note:
The item is not original controller.
It's the working quality of the actual sticks and buttons that is the issue with clones.
That being said clones work fine, they usually just have bad stick sensitivity and/or large dead zones.
I didn't even see the note there. I thought the price was a little too good. for that price I can buy a cheaper clone from walmart and get much faster than something shipped from china. stick quality and deadzones are a concern of mine.Quote:

Problem is that many used DS3's will have stick drift. I'm guessing that as Grouch has problems finding many things cheap used where he is this might be a tough mission.
Test first?Quote:

I have some spares myself, at least one has stick drift but that is the first one I ever had. I've got one clone too, and the wired Hori.
The Hori didn't cost me much, I mean DS3 prices anyway. It doesn't have motion sensors or rumble though, but it does have rapid fire options and a target tracking button underneath.
The layout and shape is also much better for me (more like Xbox).
I have 2x DS4 controllers but they aren't fully functional on PS3 afaik. Never bothered verifying that.
Mad Catz DS3 options are apparently no good but I wouldn't know myself.
There are some other non Sony options but they're more expensive...It's nearly impossible to find genuine DS3 brand new old stock now.
That's why I suggested used.Quote:

:hello:
my vehicle is running is just not legal yet(gotta do title and plate) it boils down to price and availability most things I've seen used are heavily used and overpriced.Quote:
