Wow, thought there would be more interest in this. Are you all PC gamers?

Not much of an upgrade? 16 x the RAM, Blu-ray, instant switching with pause and resume of games, no disc switching if you install the games, etc.  All seems very well thought out to me.

So it's a PS3. Big deal.

This.

Im actually not much of a PC gamer, unless you count Minecraft. I was however a pretty big Xbox fanboy. I just could not find anything significant during the premier. Yay, more CoD and n-th sports games. Oh a "premium" Halo tv series... The switching thing is nice, but seems more like a parlor trick than something worthy of a console. Unless they have something else pretty big up their sleeve for E3, I think they just made the Wii-U a lot cooler.

Just don't get why they are bring this out, not much of an upgrade.

Wii-U / PlayStation 4
They have to stay competitive and if PS4 is getting upgrades then its time for Xbox to get some too. Even if it is a VCR looking remote...

Added (and adding) quite a few Steam Games. This is an area I really want to take part in, and hopefully offer most games at seriously discounted rates in the near future.

I will be keeping my xbox360, I think xbox one runs 3 OS, that 2 too many for a gaming console.

Ill probably be buying an Ouya and waiting for the Steam console next.

Yeah, I don't like the direction xbox is going. It was a game console, but now they're trying to make it an everything. I already have a computer

EDIT: Kinect is pretty cool, though.

I admit, Kinect is cool. I was really excited when they launched that. Especially in comparison to the PS3 wii-mote.
This would have been an ok launch had they said one of the following:

We are removing our LIVE fee
Our outdated LIVE fee now includes a cable subscription
We are merging all popular program interfaces into one easy to use panel, e.g. Netflix, Hulu, Xbox Movies

Instead we got CoD with a dog, more partnerships with possibly the shittiest game company to ever exist, and little to no improvements in the actual gaming platform. But you can use IE while you play CoD now!

Looks pretty sweet!  Just waiting for the pre-order options...

Im far less than impressed. Basically what I got from all of that was, eh well improve gaming a little, but here let us sell you as much other entertainment shit as possible with our cool new remote!

I will be adding legit point cards to my site soon. www.btc-gamecards.com

Eh I wouldn't pay a markup for something I can easily buy myself, the guy just seemed like he needed to get rid of them cheap and fast. But usually when it seems like too good of a deal, it usually is.



That is understandable. There are whispers that points are going away, but they should say more tomorrow during the new Xbox unveiling. But between that and my uncertainty of how quickly they would sell, Im not planning on making a $5k+ purchase from a distributor yet. One day.

Daily bump.
Not adding anything else today, but probably will tomorrow.
171  Economy / Digital goods / Re: 800 MS points card on: May 19, 2013, 04:31:36 PM
I have an 800 MS points card that I don't need. Regular price for the card is $10, so I can offer a little discount for paying with BTC.





I offer .074 - Ill send first.
172  Economy / Digital goods / Re: [ANN] Amazon Gift Cards, Steam Gift Cards, Riot Points - Automatic Delivery on: May 18, 2013, 07:58:51 PM
Added 3 month Hulu Plus and $10 Spotify cards today. Will continue to add more soon.

Had to get my wallet synced up, took forever lol. Anyways, delivery was instant. Pretty awesome service

Awesome, thank you!

bought to try it out. Will leave positive feedback if it goes well

The order status is actually showing the equivalent of an abandoned cart. However, if you sent from something like Coinbase it can take multiple hours for them to send the coins (not confirmed, just sent). I just set up a test item and paid via Coinbase and it was nearly instant, but I only paid .0001 and a small transaction fee.

After a few months of slacking off and getting a leg cut off by Gyft, I finally opened my new site: http://www.BTC-GameCards.com

Amazon.com Gift Cards
Steam Gift Cards
League of Legends Riot Points / Starter Pack
Minecraft (PC - new accounts) Codes
Hulu Gift Cards
Spotify Gift Cards
Steam Games
and plenty more to come!

Check it out and let me know your thoughts.
176  Other / Off-topic / Re: GYFT.COM: wonder why you'd never heard of it before? on: May 13, 2013, 10:21:00 PM
Brainstormin' to the nth degree with the help of Google, I learnt there's a myriad of Gift Card Exchanges like http://www.giftcardrescue.com/sell/cards/new.

Using the GCR as an example, you see below that they purchase GCs but pay via a check.





BitPay needs to approach them, offering up a better solution, thereby sellers could get paid quicker via Bitcoin. Those same sellers will become buyers, many a times on the fly, e.g., 30 minutes from now a Bitcoiner is thinking about eating lunch at some restaurant that accepts their gift cards, but he doesn't have one--yet. But he will when he buys one using bitcoins either from his wallet, an online service like BitPay, or perhaps has a few on account at GCR, obviously the quicker solution, albeit the other options shouldn't take too long either.

Thinkin' further outside the box, it's not outside the realm of possibility for a person(s) to amass gift cards for the sole purpose to sell them on an exchange like GCR for bitcoins, a unique way for them to get them, to be used for whatever purpose they have in mind.

In fact, a whole new exchange could be created to do just that if nary existing GCeX don't come aboard.

Please point me to some link if this has already been discussed or is in the works.

The problem with buying gift cards is that the company would need a credit card on file anyways. In the event that someone sells a gift card, gets paid, and then uses it anyways. Or claims it lost, bought it with stolen funds, etc. I was actually about to open a new gift card site when gyft was announced and was considering moving towards buying as well.

Yeah... There not going to get back to you. I have heard that from both PayPal and eBay at least 5 times each. Never once have they got back to me.
