Here's the actual offer, and the wording will confuse many people.

*********************
Rock Band Trade-up Offer

Trade any games or accessories towards the reservation or purchase of Rock Band (XB360, PS3, PS2) and receive an extra 30% trade-in credit!
Expires: 11/11/2007. Full trade value amount must be applied toward reserve/purchase of title. Offer not good on cash trades. Trades must be in full working condition to receive full value. Cannot be combined with any other offer. Trade-ins subject to manager approval. See store associate for details. No dealers.
*********************

What it means is that if the game you are trading in is normally worth $15 for trade-in, they will give you an extra 30% making it $20.
It's a good deal, but I only have a couple games I would part w/ and probably only get $20 total for both.
Hey do you have an Edge discount card????? If so you get and extra 10% on top of that 30% but we also have the deal where if you trade in any 2 XBox 360, Wii, or PS3 games you get an extra $10 store credit so if you trade in 4 you get $20 and so on but only on the newest systems of Wii, PS3, and 360. SO yeah and with that deal you do get the 10% from the edge card too. Thought i would try to help you guys out.

Go to DVD Decrypter -> Mode -> ISO write. Click the browse icon and locate your file.

If you are using DVD Shrink, there is an option when you click on Backup, you'll see a popup window.
Under "Target Device" tab go to "Select backup target" select "ISO Image File and burn with DVD Decrypter".
This will make the ISO, and open Decrypter to automatically write the image to the DVD.

We are working on it slowly. She wants the wide body kit and a hard top. I just need to make sure it looks manly.(2zz-gte maybe) Once we have kids, she gets the RX8 and I get the 2-seater.

4 banger it is.
Currently the 1zz-fe ( 1st gen of the zz line - f=narrow valves E=electric fuel injection ) Corolla motor.
132 hp
127 torque

I want the 2zz-gte (2nd gen zz - g=wide valve, t=turbo, e=EFI )
240 hp . . . . 172 without the turbo
still 127 torque


But at 2200 pounds, mid engine RWD . . . . . that little car is a ton of fun. On a canyon run, any of us would be hard pressed to keep up with it in the corners. On the Long straight though . . . it fails.

Guitar Hero questions:

-Whammy on Number of the beast (did you do that on Easy level Cesar?)

-Easy (do you earn any money for beating songs....GH2 didn't reward you with any money on EASY mode)

Yes to both.
You get paid for passing easy songs.
I passed them all in lefty mode, and did not get the lefty achievement.
You have no idea how frustrating it was to play the whole level lefty mode and not get the achievement.
Maybe there is something I missed in the details of how to get that one.
The only thing I can think of is that someone played 1 song on easy mode career the other night on my sign-in. Just to be safe, first thing I did was replay that song lefty and beat the score, but still no achievement.

It's called "Hendrix Reborn"
and the description says, Complete Career Lefty and Righty.
So maybe I have to go through it regular now.

As far as the Whammy, yes it was on easy, and it's not very easy
If you can do it first try, I'd be impressed!

Maybe the word "career" is the important part. Maybe career means all difficulty settings....wouldn't that suck, because there is one for completing career with the damn controller as well.

question real quick....if i pick up some blank DL DVD disks, i could just use Nero to copy my *.iso files over straight onto a disk w/o having to worry about compressing and all that, right? if so, i'll just do that, lol.

that...and i've also run out of blank DVDs

Yep, but blank dual-layer DVD's cost much more than double the price of a blank single-layer dvd.

I guess it's up to you, and how much the copies are worth to you.
I find that if I shrink a movie to fit on a DVD, I can remove extra features, and extra languages, and I don't lose that much in the quality. It's actually hard to tell it's even a copy, and most people wouldn't know by watching the screen.

But yes, Nero should copy DL -> DL if you insert the correct blank media.
