Best of luck everyone! Reply to this comment if you have questions.
Please continue to be kind to each other, and most importantly, be kind to yourself. It’s easy to get so angry in today’s divisive world. You can’t change the world, but you can certainly help those closest to you.
Stay safe everyone!

Also here’s the cute cat meme I made. I just like cats.
Entering Hogwarts Legacy,
I took my little goofballs off cousins to an amusement park, never been so scared in my life as I see the youngest instantly take off like Usain Bolt. So glad they got phones at least because I wasn’t sure how I would explain to my uncle that I lost his child 5 seconds after entering.
Hogwarts Legacy has been on my list, but was waiting for everything to be fixed first.
My wife and I just had our second child, so not a lot of free time, but hoping to get some more gaming in once he starts going longer between feedings. Our 3 year old is a great big sister and everything is going about as well as you could hope.
Thanks for the giveaway and good luck everyone!
Hello :D
I would like to enter for the NieR automata copy.
Heres a meme I
stolepermanently borrowed from somewhere:
As for something I recently did: I played through Fallout: New Vegas for the first time, which was a great experience. While the gameplay is decent, the factions and their story within the game are really well thought out and implemented imo. So I highly recommend it for those who have been on the fence about it.
I wish everyone else the best of luck and thanks OP for generously hosting this!
I would like to have ff I to VI as this is a cultural gap I have to never have played the final fantasy games :(
LOL oof. I looked at your meme and got pain in a spot I don’t want it to be.
Hogwart Legacy has been on my list for a while now, but not high enough to buy while I have such a large backlog.
Hmm… I’ve got a few memes, but I’ll also talk about one of my hobbies: butterfly knife flipping.
A few years ago I stumbled across a video of someone doing some sick trick with a balisong. I found the balisong subreddit and did some research, bought a cheapo trainer off Amazon, and practiced and watch YouTube videos until my fingers were bruised.
Eventually for to be pretty decent (enough to impress people IRL with a few tricks, not internet good) and got a few nice knives and trainers (a few Squid Industries, a Kershaw Lucha w/ Flytanium handles, and some random others). I already semi-collect pocketknives, so this is a step past that.
Downside is, balisongs tree expensive, and I tend to cycle my hobbies and not come back to them for a while. Right now I’m not in a flipping kick, but maybe someday soon I’ll get back to it…
Also, meme!
First of all, excellent username. Second, I would love a chance to win the Tomb Raider I - III remaster just for the nostalgia. Third, the cool new thing I’ve done this year is take part in WeeklyBeats, a year-long challenge to create and post a new music track every week of 2024. So far so good! Fourth, I don’t have a decent meme to share but here (if I can get photos to work) is a photo of my void.
Hell yeah I’ll always take cute cat pics! Thanks for sharing, you love to see a good void.
I haven’t heard of weekly beats, but that’s a pretty dope thing to do. I can’t imagine getting inspired to try to come up with a new song each week, so it sounds like a really cool creative outlet and a lot of fun - provided of course it doesn’t get stressful.
It has been surprisingly un-stressful so far, probably due to the ridiculously supportive community there. The best part is that everyone’s submissions go live at the same time every week, so there’s a whole new playlist of brand new music to enjoy!
Well, even though your username says you’re a refrigerator, I’ll take you word for it.
Really appreciate the introduction to this! I added a reminder for myself to check this out tomorrow - pretty cool you get a whole playlist of songs to listen to each day!
Sorry but #2 pls!
Hi,
I would like to enter for Final Fantasy I-VI Bundle.
(Currently on phone so no memes :3 ) Thanks!
no excuse! You could take a picture of a meme on a computer screen and fail to crop the screenshot
(finally on PC)
I see you eated the purple berries! And it’s perfectly cropped, as all memes should be.
I like purple berries. This one is homebrew as well. :)
Awesome initiative! I wouldn’t mind entering for a copy of Hogwarts Legacy myself.
@[email protected] - Congratulations! You’ve been selected as the winner of Hogwarts Legacy: Deluxe Edition! You will have 48 hours to acknowledge me before I send you the code. Please respond to my Direct Message. If you do not respond back to me in 48 hours, your entry will be forfeited and I will redraw for the another winner.
If you do win and claim the game key, for transparency purposes please respond back to my comment letting everyone know you were successful - but only if you want to. Hope to hear back from you!
Thanks for doing this! FFVII was my first RPG ever. I remember playing it day in and out. We would have family over for holidays, it didn’t matter. I was glued to the TV. Aerith’s death made me cry as a young boy. I was devastated. They killed a main character, a love interest. It blew my mind.
Been obsessed with FFVII and the final fantasy series ever since. Nobody Uematsu is an amazing musician. So much depth added.
The story is great, character development is fun… I just haven’t gotten around to picking this up and playing it because life gets in the way and my home constantly needs repairs… would be nice to pick up and relive things in 2024.
Anyways, I’m hoping to be picked for Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade.
Here’s a meme!
Hey, thanks for the giveaway! I’d like to enter for Crisis Core.
I started watching the Nier Automata anime last night and it got me intrigued about the game. I was planning to get the Yorha edition once it gets on sale again.
Thank you for these kind of posts, more power to you and the gatos!
I had NO knowledge of an anime.
I really need to play this darn game, I’ve heard so many good things and I already own it too. Good luck if you win it!
I happened to stumble upon it too, the reviews are praising the adaptation, so I had to watch it. It’s available on crunchyroll. 2nd season have just started and is ongoing.
So far, so good.
You seem to be a nice guy. Do you know who is not a nice guy? J.K. Rowling. She is scum. So buying Hogwarts Legacy would be a big no no for me. Piracy or as a gift it’s fine. So if I am one of the lucky few, I would be happy to get a copy.
Fitting image follows:
I’d be interested in the FF7 remake.
Nothing interesting to say really, just been a long week and glad to be able to finally relax.
It’s been five days since you commented!
ARE YOU STILL RELAXING???!!
Best of luck if you win!
Ha! I wish, it’s a new week so it’s all stress, all the time.
