Welcome to the AusGAF community. It's where all the cool Australian Gaffers hang out and talk about games, boobs, politics and Ricki-Lee. We're all comedians.

The OP as ever will be a list of great links for everyone and as always if you want me to add anything just PM me.



Here is a list of sites for news about games and buying games in Australia.

too much ricki lee in the OP

 

[Omikron]

Nice OP.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Hello! And now to never post in this thread again!

 

[markot]

Now we are at the bottom >_<

 

[Fredescu]

Seems like such a long time ago that the dollar was at $0.87.

 

[VOOK]

Hello! And now to never post in this thread again!

I propose for posts 100-200 we all have to talk like pirates.

 

[Doncamatic]

OP reads like rehashed press releases. I can't help but think that these OTs are going downhill. Also, video games.

But we can't mention cd key sites

OP is there for newbies, once we're off the first page we never even see it again.

I thought the also, video games could be used in place of a /sarcasm but I failed

 

[Deeku]

Now we are at the bottom >_<

This is not how a 5/5 thread should be treated!

 

[Kritz]

I'm Kritz and I approve of this thread.

 

[Kritz]

I also made this a while back for the thread:

 

[Fredescu]

I'm wondering if we should take zavvi/the hut off the recommended importers list, or maybe just link to this thread: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=436248

 

[Clipper]

Woo, nice job, VOOK. I got some art in the OP for once.. yay!

 

[Marshmellow]

Got the gig at JB. Awww yeeaaah.



Everyone who is cool has played Shadows of the Damned. Only lamers don't want to play it.

Congrats man, which JB?

 

[reptilescorpio]

As someone who has spent a few hundred dollars on dozens of order from them and had fantastic customer service in the one occasion that a parcel went missing I still recommend them to people but, like with the key sites, maybe it is indeed better to not recommend them in the OP just in case they have a problem. Have any of you guys had problems with them before? Found them to be just as good as PlayAsia et al.

 

[codswallop]

I didn't realise we were here already! I updated the banner if you want to edit the OP Vook...

 

[Dead Man]

Bloody nice work AusGAF, and VOOK.

 

[BanShunsaku]

These OTs are getting out of hand.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Even though I have MW3, this actually helps. Thanks

Try tomorrow, they might trade you AC:R.



New OP logo is pale in comparison to previous ones.

 

[Kritz]

These OTs are getting out of hand.

Don't worry, we'll be onto AusGAF 6 before Christmas.

 

[Rimfya]

PR Pastebin OT's such as this are a so on and so on.

 

[viciouskillersquirrel]

For anyone reading the archived version of this thread in the far flung future of 2013, Skyrim and Uncharted 3 just came out and Skyward Sword is about to come out. The Internet LOVES the former, had middling feelings about the one in the middle and has mixed reports on the latter. Nintendo is still doomed, but what else is new, right?

Oh and Tony Abbott is the leader of the opposition running against an unpopular Gillard government. God help us all.

 

[Choc]

These OTs are getting out of hand.

go look at teh AC:R one if you want bananas

 

[Rezbit]

What is this place?

 

[Omikron]

go look at teh AC:R one if you want bananas

None of the dozen or so jokes in this thread were at all taking the piss out of that thread nor ones like it.

 

[Gazunta]

MY NEW HOME!

Just for the 2013 readers: I'm still making comics nobody reads, I'm still somehow working in this stupid games industry, and I have all my limbs and teeth. I have a feeling it's all downhill from here.

 

[Fredescu]

People not getting the OT joke make me sad and fearful that future threads won't be filled with our wonderful history of banners.

So to be annoyingly clear, people are joking because it's topical to joke about.

 

[Ruthless_Barbarian]

Top 10 from last thread:

 

[Fogz]

Hey all

 

[hamchan]

Hi guys I'm new around here.

 

[Planet_JASE]

Went to AC:R Official Thread.

Found no bananas.

Left disappointed.

 

[DualShadow]

That OT is nearly as big as the AC:R one.

 

[Danoss]

Oh hey, I didn't know you guys were down here in Community!

 

[codswallop]

I was responsible for 2.23% of the last thread. Sorry, and sorry in advance for any participation in this one.

 

[pilonv1]

Sorry, and sorry in advance for any participation in this one.

About time, and apology accepted

 

[legend166]

AusGAF.

 

[EatChildren]

Congrats man, which JB?

I'll be at Bourke's.

 

[Omikron]

I'll be at Bourke's.

Will you be breaking the street date on the next big EA game?

I am desperate to obtain it.

 

[EatChildren]

I don't know what the next big EA game is but yeah sure why not.

/says this before he has signed the papers

 

[reptilescorpio]

I heard that NFS The Run is hot, runny poop

Prior to its release, Need for Speed: The Run was marketed and promoted heavily through the use of numerous Internet and TV trailers. Famed Hollywood explosion fetishist Michael Bay has directed a TV advertisement for the game. Talking about his venture of directing a trailer for a game, Michael Bay stated, "What I try to do with my trailers is to get your heart racing to the end of it." The advertisement features explosions, car crashes, supercars and police vehicle.

lol Never changed wiki editors!

I don't know what the next big EA game is but yeah sure why not.

/says this before he has signed the papers

Sony exclusives too please.

 

[Salazar]

Went and looked in Pacific Fair EB and JB. No street-broken AC:R.

I was betrayed, Aus-GAF.

No one cares about Ass Creed 2.2. ;D

Damn. Oh well, I'm not desperate for it. Skyrim is insane.

 

[trinest]

Why can't it be the end of the month I want my Zelda dam it!
