Near Christmas? The Wii U Pro Controller I did get other stuff but that was before.

I'm not one to praise Christmas or like it but it's bullshit that they're calling it "Happy Holidays", aka, the Political Correct term to make everyone happy.

I've been applying for a job for three months straight, and just got rejected two days ago (after A LOT of near-perfect tests and stuff). So I'm not exactly in the (financial) mood for Christmas plundering. I voted 'games' because of steam sales...but it's only coincidentally Christmas thingies. It's not something for underneath the Christmas tree. :glare:

Political correctness is overrated, it's asinine and used to avoid offending...never mind lol.

I don't think I'm getting anything gaming related for Christmas.
I would like a new Vita 2000 but no one is going to buy it for me. :(

Funnily enough I do know my parents are getting me the Wireless Razer Adaro headphones for me.

Only reason I know is that my Mom came up to me and said "Hey uh... this is gonna ruin the surprise but... are these the headphones you wanted?"
She showed me a box for a plug in Xbox 360 headset. And I was like "lolno"

So she said "Okay, start a return for these, go on amazon, take my card, and buy your headphones so I dont fuck up again."

;O;

Well, I wouldn't know until after christmas. a N3DS is out of the picture though, since it will get released here early 2015 (such a dumb move).

But hopefully a few games :) For my birthday (the 12th) I got Smash + GC-adapter ^_^

I already grabbed some games from the PSN holiday sale but I still have some psolars left.
I also ordered a 64gb Vita memory card from china, you need all the storage you can afford in a Vita, but most probably will arrive between january and february.
I would have saved for a N3DS but silly Nin10doh decided to release it later.

    @Xdqwerty there is health behaviour you can add to your character, then to use a health bar is lil more complicated, google n watch a few tutorial video on it, be too hard to explain here.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the character has the health behavior
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I know you have to create a health and health max variable. Then there is a calculation you use in code to subtract width size of the health bar. Google few vids.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the "greenflatbar" is one of the preset health bars btw
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you can use any bar/sprite. It will just change the width. Ok good luck and have fun. I'm off to go shoot some pool at the bar. Talk to you later.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, why does the health behavior exist if you can just use a variable?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    and nope the number still doesnt change
