    Anybody here playing Wii Sports Resort?

    The archery is fun. My only problem is I tend to not play the games requiring the nunchuck because of the hassle of having to get it out and plug it in to the wiimote. I Hope you get healed up and get back to gaming. It looks like Wii sports resort is not as popular as I thought it might be...

    Anybody here playing Wii Sports Resort?

    I got it from amazon.com in late July from pre-order. I like it alot. My youngest daughters love the swordplay. I like all of it. The bowling is easier to work with with the wii motion plus. However, it seems to me that in swordplay if you get to swinging the wiimote around too hard, it...

    Help! Emergency on the PS3

    Fortunately I live in Texas, and if I understood correctly, the center is in Laredo, Texas. So, maybe the transit time won't be too long.

    Help! Emergency on the PS3

    I wouldn't even bother you with that, Eva. It is out of warranty, so I play by the rules. I'll be ordering the coffin for it next week. I read on the PSN forums that it takes about 9-12 days for them to get the machine back to you, sometimes its yours, sometimes its a refurb. I'm surprised...

    Help! Emergency on the PS3

    Good find Van. I just did a search a little bit ago after asking a question on the PSN forums about when Sony takes the $149 repair fee out of your account. Some guy had posted that he found a youtube video about cleaning the lens and I saw there are a number of things I can try on my own to...

    Help! Emergency on the PS3

    Since I got the thing free, I figure if if $150 is all I have to spend on it for now, it's worth that much. The kids are reall bummed about it and keep asking about getting it fixed.

    Help! Emergency on the PS3

    I won it from Scott and Eva at the satguys christmas party just over a year ago. :o So I don't have a receipt of any kind, although it is out of warranty, just barely. Anyway, I don't think it's the hard drive. It boots and loads the games I have that are on the hard drive (e.g. - Bejeweled...

    Help! Emergency on the PS3

    Yesterday, the kids dropped in GH3 to play and it started (according to my 18 year old) and he chose a song to play and then the machine locked up. When he turned it off and got it started again the PS3 won't recognize any discs at all, period. I've tried all our PS3 games, a netflix bluray...

    Post your Wii Codes

    By the way. We should set up a satguys Mariokart race league and race on Sunday nights or something. I'm finding that this Mariokart is not as easy to beat as the old N64 version. I was a straight up pro on that thing. I'm finding it very difficult to earn gold trophies on the 100cc bike...

    Post your Wii Codes

    Gawwwwwlllyy! How did you get that many Wii codes? My kids don't have very many friends that have Wii's, and I'm betting that those don't even know that you can connect it to the internet.

    Playstation Home???

    I just discovered this on my PS3 a few days ago and I had no idea this whole subculture thing existed. It seems cool, but let me get this straight: In order to buy anything, I have to do these "microtransactions" where I spend actual money out of my checking account for "virtual" items that...

    PS3 download speeds?

    Wow! I'm so thankful to find this thread. I'm wireless, using an EVDO router (Kyocera K2) with Alltel wifi. Sometimes the downloads seem faster and others... not so much. I was thinking it was just the traffic on the tower, but now I'm thinking it may just be an artifact of the PS3. I'll...

    Get any good games for Xmas?

    The family picked up Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare for the PS3 (for the 18 year old), MarioKart for Wii, Guitar Hero III - Legends of Rock for PS3, and Wii Monopoly (thinking this would be a fun family game). CoD4 is just unplayable due my lack of dexterity on the controller - I can't get out...

    How about that Wii Fit?

    The guy has been growing a ponytail. It's funny, when I started, he had short hair and it kept getting longer, and now it's in a ponytail.

    How about that Wii Fit?

    Lost 8 lbs. so far. I'm still working out about 3-4 times per week, 30-40 minutes each session. Mostly I'm doing strength training coupled with aerobics. And I'm watching what I eat and how much now. It's working for me.

    How about that Wii Fit?

    Ha. I took two days off and when my daughter went to use it, it asked her if she had heard the news... that "Dad" hadn't been working out lately? WTF? I just took two days off! And I still lost weight. The machine is funny. Sometimes my trainer takes off and the other one will stand in...

    How about that Wii Fit?

    I think it would be easy for them to make a heart rate monitor to wear while you are doing these exercises, so they could calculate apporximate calorie burn for the individual. That would be a nice upgrade.

    How about that Wii Fit?

    Oops, my mistake. I actually turned 44 on the 21st, instead of 45. I guess I just felt a year older than I was.

    How about that Wii Fit?

    I have finally officially lost weight using the wii fit. My weight is down 4+ pounds, which is outside the normal fluctuation, so I have lost somewhere between 1 and 2 pounds so far. It has only taken me 32 days :) (That's sarcasm, if you can't feel it.) I have been using it almost every day...

    How about that Wii Fit?

    We are still using ours. I have a 15 year old daughter that is trying to put in an hour a day on it. My other kids play on it quite a bit as well. The strength training is still keeping me sore, and the aerobics make me sweat, but I haven't lost weight. My weight has fluctuated back and...

    How about that Wii Fit?

    Ha. I did a body test yesterday afternoon and its down from 48 to 30 (I am age 43, at least until June 21). But, my BMI climbed a little, it was showing I gained 2.3 lbs. since day before yesterday. Mastermesh, you must be a workaholic. I unlocked step boxing yesterday and tried it and...

    How about that Wii Fit?

    Maybe you are building muscle and getting better scores on the exercises, but the wieght is not coming off, yet. That may be why the fit age is coming down, but the BMI is staying the same slightly going up.
