  1. I only liked the snake house. Of course you have to pay extra for that.

    Well I did not pay for it, and it was last Saturday blink.gif

    Oh, and I paid only 50THB at the entrance, I got my wife to explain to the ticket counter I was not a tourist, and I should not pay more than her, or my kids. And it worked whistling.gif

    Why am I not surprised -_-"

  2. I haven't got another product to add at this stage but just want to go with the potato chips theme.The bags look soooo fuulll and pluuump-but when you finally get them open theres about 10 chips inside.To follow along the same lines a friend of mine picked up a bag of afore mentioned potato chips, hurriedly looked at the flavour and thought she was buying "onion flavoured" However on closer inspection the picture turned out to be a potato. So in fact what she bought was "potato flavoured" chips. I'm sure I'll think of more...

    Its a bag of air,can't figure out how they get so much air in though.

    LOL!

  3. Ok, here's a fantastic update for all of you interested in this game. I managed to get everything for $49.99, within Thailand all paid and done. Admittedly I'll have to wait until the 30th for the release of the Standard Edition, but I'm willing to wait a couple of days for a potential saving of $100 on Amazon prices.

    Well what I have done is the following, the .ISO of the game is out and can be found in torrent format. I won't post it here so as not to contravene ThaiVisa's rules.

    Anyway, you can download the torrent of the RETAIL game, and then just buy the CD Key from igxe.com or offgamers.com I've been using IGXE and Offgamers for a while, about 3 years. They both deliver. They'll send a scanned/photographed copy of the CD key of the new game they have opened in their offices. You then own that game.

    I have already ordered mine, it cost $49.99 for the keys of the Standard Edition version, they are sending me key via email on 30th, I spoke to them on the phone to confirm.

    Before any of you bust a blood vessel, if done in the right order you are not breaking any laws here. You are perfectly allowed to make a copy of the game you own for your own purposes - backup, a copy to travel with, whatever. Seeing as I have paid for my keys, I own the game. Therefore I am allowed to make a copy of it, which I have acquired by downloading the torrent.

    Admittedly, you do not get the retail copy of the game in your hand. They will not ship it. Well they might for an extra fee. I have never bothered. This is exactly the same method I used to get around FFXI's problems when I played that. The only stipulation here is that you have to wait for the Standard Edition as neither of those reputable companies offer the CE version to buy.

    The torrent is 4GB and after being installed it will auto-update, with Square's own updater. It took about 2 hours for me download the whole torrent (i have a pretty fast connection, can download at 1400kbps during the day and more at night so your download may be slower.)

    With the retail DVD-ROM .ISO downloaded and in your possession, you can then use Daemon Tools to mount it, install it and update.

    Then enter the scanned/copied/photographed CD key into your SquareEnix account (which all players have to get) you get from the supplier and use this and off you go!

    By far the cheapest way of doing it I could find and the least amount of hassle.

    If any of you need the FFXIV torrent let me know and I'll give you the info in a PM.

    Just incase none of you are aware, FFXIV is a subscription MMO. It costs $12.99 per month, per character to play, which is paid for using a myriad of methods on the SquareEnix account management page. Yes they changed the payment method from the awful system they have with FFXI. Thank god. The way they have it setup now, you can pay with CC, Paypal, Moneybookers and loads of other options, which is a real leap forward for SqaureEnix.

    Anyway, there's an option if you want to get the game as fast as everyone else, playing the Standard Edition.

    I'll pop back when I actually have set everything up and am playing the game, in a few days.

    Cheers.

    Lucky you! Let us know how the game is. I'm subscribing to WoW currently and I'm thinking of switching to another mmo. This might just be the one

  4. JT,

    You need another option in the Poll. I was bred by a mongrel breed of murders and rapist people & raised for a number of years (true story), yet they were all killed and I was Orphaned & later adopted by a wealthy family who dragged me up to be the fine upstanding member of the community that I am today :whistling::lol: . Tragically, my new adopted family was also tragically killed in two seperate accidents, this of which has left me as the sole heir to the family fortune.

    Following that little windfall, I gambled my millions on a double or nothing bet on the roulette table and lost before ending up here in LOS, sitting on the steps of 7eleven drinking cheap beer B)

    So, in short, which option do I pick?

  5. Have you bought it?

    Is it sold online?

    What's the price?

    They are asking to attach a receipt (in digital form), did you get it?

    Thank you.

    Yea, a friend bought the HDD as a birthday gift to me. The digital receipt got mailed to me in 3 - 4 days after I registered. The activation code worked fine and I've got the game in my computer now. Its pretty nice addition to my computer both the game and the hdd.
