Upgrade Borked

I manage to bork the upgrade to Wordpress 2.6. Until I get the theme issues fixed, I’ll be running with the default theme. It seems Wordpress 2.6 destroyed all my categories, and I need to rebuild them by hand in the database. Crap.

Edit: I have to fix all of the category titles by hand. Oh joy.

Still Finding Deals

Guitar Hero

Yesterday I popped into my local gaming store VGMX, and stumbled upon an awesome deal: they had used copies of both Guitar Hero and Guitar Hero III for the PS2. Not only that, but I had a coupon to buy one, get one free, so both games together cost me a total of $34.99. Now all I need is a second controller, someone to play with, and some extra free time to play.

Deals: Toys R Us Super Mario Galaxy Special

Toys R Us are offering an in-store special on Super Mario Galaxy: Buy it and get any other Wii game of equal or lesser value for 50% off. We picked it up today, along with Raving Rabbids 2.

Currently, Mrs Teh Bagder is testing Super Mario Galaxy out to *cough* ensure that it’s suitable for the kids to play. So far, she’s loving it, but she’s a complete Mario Head so that’s no surprise. She’s going to go through withdrawal when we pack up the Wii tomorrow and wrap it up for Consumermas. It’ll sit below the Consumermas Tree and taunt her until just after Dec. 24th when she’ll be able to play the game again.

Unless of course, she gets up in the middle of the night, carefully unwraps both the Wii and the game, plays them with the sound off, and then re-wraps them before the rest of us wake up.

Deals: Wiimotes @ Wal*Mart

If you’ve managed to get your hands on a Wii for this Crimble, but you’re still missing out on a couple of Wiimotes or Nunchuks, you’ll probably find them at your local Wal*Mart. We managed to pick up two Wiimotes today. You’ll most likely find both those with and without the free glove on sale; those with a glove are in a box in the blister pack. Prices were $39.96 for one.

Deals: Sony extends Blu-Ray Movie Offer

BluRaySavings

To shift Blu-Ray units (including the PS3), Sony have been operating a deal that allows you to get 5 free Blu-Ray movies if you can prove you bought a player. As a number of people have been buying the PS3 as a Blu-Ray player, this is a great deal, made even better by the fact Sony is extending it until Dec 31st 2007 here in the US. You can get more details here, including details on the Canadian offer.
