How's It Goin?

2008-07-14T03:51:24Z

Hello everyone visiting Ace Game Forums and reading and buying right now! We've invested in unrelated Ace Game Forums business. However it's a recreational business distribution company. So we've been using our experience on Ace Game Forums while working with our new investments. Good summer so far, speaking of, it's mid-summer and prices have decreased on Ace Game Forums and items are going fast. Get ready for new products including movies and games, new and used. When you are reading this post, you may be seeing a different one then when this post was written. Why? Because a new design sounds good to me, what do you think? Just get ready, because Ace Game Forums has changes in store.

Easter Eggs

2008-06-11T00:32:23Z

Easter, the holiday that includes finding hidden goodies, what's not to like about that? We can't get enough of the concept and therefore we've released our own game. Ace Game Forums has relaunched its old pages, remember Home, Deeper Look, Topic Ace, etc.? Yeah those. There's a catch though, you have to find them on your own, we're not going to update their info or content though, it's just for the fun! In the future the may be updated though, but we'll announce to tell you. But the fun doesn't stop there. Remember the old days and how the site looked about a year and a half ago? The red and gray style scheme, yeah that's been relaunched too, think you can find it? Give it a try. If you found the pages, then visit the Contact Us page found on them and contact us telling us. You won't win anything, but it'll be fun. So why not look around? Have Fun!

June's Ca$h Goal

2008-06-09T03:00:59Z

Hey everyone, well we're already 8 days into June. Year went fast, huh? May was a great month for Ace Game Forums due to the contributions and help we received from friends and readers, in which who I would like to thank again! But now that it's June, we have an even larger money goal. By reading our blog and commenting this month, alone will help us out. Reading responses and Positive feedback from satisfied customers such as you is what provokes our on going service. For the Month of June we are expecting a 20% increase in items and products to be available in the Ace Game Storefront. Previous contributors have already insisted on helping once again.

Remember, just because we are hoping to up profits next month, does NOT mean prices will increase. In fact, prices during the summer will drop and go on sale and stay on sale until sold. So if you plan on purchasing, buy fast, because items go fast! You will not be notified when prices decrease so don't wait for a heads up! I hope you look forward to the month of June and all of it's upcoming Electronics, Books, and Toys! Thank you for reading and check out the store soon!

2008-06-05T00:25:28Z

Here at Ace Game Forums, we would like to thank all of those who contributed. In the month of may we received many contributions as donations to be placed in the storefront. We also had the help from many friends to help us reach our financial goal. We couldn't ask for anything better then a past customer, reader or friend who contributes with donations to support our cause. You have all all kept us going for over 2 years now and we need your help more than ever, and we got it. We're glad to say we're supported be very great people. Ace Game Forums Company will live on and some day return to its former state of a full fledged website with its own dedicated storefront. For now we think the blog is working out just fine. It's free, fun, interesting, and easy to navigate. All contributors will be the ones to truly be proud as they're the ones responsible for the on going no charge system. Once again, thank you from all of us at Ace Game Forums!

Movin' On Up

2008-05-28T00:08:18Z

Sorry that there's been no posting for a while. I was quite busy these past few weeks with the store and other matters. First off I'd like to thank all of you that visit and read on Ace Game Forums. I must also thank all of those happy customers that have purchased items off of us in the past. Sales funds have gone to keeping us going, we hope your happy purchases as we are with your satisfaction! Please be sure to check out some of the new items included in the Ace Game Storefront Catalog. Anyway, I have a great announcement. I have just recently opened a checking account dedicated to Ace Game Forums, this means funds can go to anything, including Online Non-Profit Organizations. Be sure to keep your eyes open for Summer sales and inclusions to the catalog. Once again, thank you for your involvement and contributions to Ace Game Forums!

Good News? Not So Much..

2008-05-12T22:18:29Z

So since April 29th you would assume life has been as good as it can get for me, well maybe you need to know me better. If you don't know why it should have been, well it's because I was waiting for GTA IV for a couple years and had the Special Edition on pre-order. Well it came and the game has been great. Well, everything else must be great too than, right? Wrong, the day I got it, I had the beginning of a really bad cold or flu, what ever it was. I was too busy playing GTA and trying to enjoy it that I didn't go to the doctor, screw that. The bad luck doesn't end there either. Just yesterday I had to call Xbox Customer Service, the last number anyone should want to call, I went through about 10 minutes of that annoying computer recording named Max. He just couldn't understand "I want to speak to a live agent", "Live agent", or "I want to f***ing speak to a live agent". Eventually I connected to one. Oh, and I'm calling because my second Xbox 360 just got the 3 red lights. I'm about to just get a PS3 and ditch Microsoft, they're better at making software anyway. So, since April 29th things have been great in terms of GTA IV living up to expectations, but a lot of stuff hasn't been all to great, to be far, it hasn't been "everything" that's bad. Now lets start that countdown for Saints Row 2, bring on August 26, 2008!

Happy April 29, 2008!!

2008-04-29T01:17:04Z

Its a little less than 2 hours away from April 29, 2008 here. What's so important about April 29, 2008 you ask? Well, it's the official release date for Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto Special Edition for the Xbox 360 and the PLAYSTATION 3! I guess it's also our lucky day seeing as we've FINALLY regained control of acegameforums.com. Stay tuned from upcoming posts in the future containing info on GTA IV included. Happy 4-29-08!

GTA Commercial

2008-04-04T00:52:58Z

So take a guess on who teamed up lately. If you guessed GameStop and Rockstar Games even with the slim chance of guessing that without seeing the commercial or reading ahead, your correct! GameStop and Rockstar Games have published a commercial advising gamers to buy a copy of the Special Edition. They than go on to state their motto "Power To The Players". I love the commercial and all but I personally did not pre-order or reserve or deposit and any of that other junk with GameStop, instead I pre-ordered from Amazon using One-Day Shipping. However, do your locally owned game stores a favor and order from them and not from the big corporations that sometimes open games before selling to you and shady things similar to that. If you read things on PlanetGTA.com than you may have seen that one of editors, Jordan, advises the same. Anyway, below is the commercial link in case you haven't already seen it on TV.

GTA Nearing

2008-03-30T17:39:50Z

Hey, sorry for no posts in a while, I've been really busy lately. Anyway, enough of the excuses, it's time to check out all the new GTA info released. On March 27 we watched the Fourth and FINAL trailer before release on April 29, 2008. The trailer consisted of alot of great stuff including Niko escaping on a Sanchez dirt bike. It was announced by Rockstar Games that 70% of the new trailer was straight up game play, those kind of things make 29 days seem like 29 years for some, me included! More talking will be coming soon, especially in the upcoming week. By the way on April 15, 2008 Rockstar is releasing a website called Rockstar Social Club (www.rockstargames.com/socialclub) that has more than just online leaderboards but much more in statistics. Here's one of my favorite:

The 100% Club -- Watch to see who will be the first to complete 100% of the game. The first ten people to be identified on the Social Club as reaching 100% will be sent an ultra-rare commemorative 'key to the city' to mark their accomplishment. In the future, the 100% Club will then carry a historical leaderboard showing rankings of who has completed 100% of a game in the shortest span of playing hours.

So stay posted on Ace Game Blog and you'll find some more info for your interest! Thanks for reading!

Ace Game Merchant Opening

2008-03-27T01:02:58Z

Earlier we posted mentioning a storefront for merchandise which would be Collectibles and exclusive to the Ace Game Forums Network. Well, it's opened and ready to experience purchases. Yes, I know, we work very fast! As I am writing this there is 1 product for retail for the price $31.99. Exclusive Canvas (Converse Style) shoes with the Ace of Spades emblem imprinted on it and the text reading 'NG2'. NG2 or NG Squared represents Ace Game Forums in the physical a.k.a. Real Life. NG2 (NG Squared) stands for "No Guts, No Glory", a phrase we follow quite often when it comes to getting things done. As time passes more products will be added! Please understand us when we say we're still getting used to the storefront settings and environment! We are using a service called SpreadShirt which we are new too. Please note that the Merchant store is not in ties with the Amazon based storefront except the fact it's run by us. Below is the link to the store and for any info please contact us at support@acegameforums.com. Thank you!

Ace Game Merchandise

2008-03-26T23:05:14Z

Ace Game Merchandise is a new idea and concept that may soon be a part of the Ace Game Forums Network! When I say "Merchandise", I mean Limited Edition T-Shirts, Pins, Magnets, Mugs, Cups, Hats and more. It is not certain at this point whether this will actually become a part of Ace Game Forums or any time soon. What I do know is that all products will be free to very cheap! More info will come soon and you may at any time contact support@acegameforums.com. Also, we are aware of CafePress.com and we don't know if it will act as the storefront for merchandise.

OXM Multiplayer Preview

2008-03-26T21:55:18Z

The Official Xbox Magazine for the United States has a seven page Multiplayer preview for GTA IV in the latest issue. The article includes some new artwork and eight new screenshots from the multiplayer action. We read the article and we will list some key points quoted from the article in OXM.

You can't play as Niko during multiplayer, but you can create your own character (male or female) using different clothing.
Jeronimo Barrera, a senior developer at Rockstar, says it takes testers playing 4 hours a day "a good 2 weeks to get through the whole single-player game."
Health, armour and cash pickups are available during multiplayer. The cash determines your online rank - from 0 to 10. Kill people and steal their money to boost your online credibility.

Those are just 3 important notes pulled from the OXM article in the latest issue. To read more you can go to GTA4.net, they have a good news post about is and a link to a forum thread with Scans of the article. You can read the article scans for free so you should check it out.

Also: Tomorrow the Fourth and final trailer goes live on the official GTA IV website (www.rockstargames.com/IV) .

Fresh New Air Flights

2008-03-25T21:24:56Z

Not much going on lately at all. The new GTA IV trailer is in 2 days that's about it. This time I'm posting about something that you don't usually see on Ace Game Forums. The other day I decided it need some new shoes to I took a trip down to the Mall to see that there was almost no body there, the economy really is bad these days so you could understand why. Anyway, I went into one of my favorite Shoe stores which is Finish Line and looked around a while. After a couple hard decisions I decided which shoes I had to have and they were the Nike Air Flight 89s. I bought the shoes for around $92 and I was suppose to get "free laces" that were blue and white but I ended up getting charged $2.49. Free add-ons? Yeah right. Extra laces or not I love the shoes, hopefully you do too, check out the pic below and comment with what you think. Thanks!

Ace Game Storefront

2008-03-23T21:13:56Z

The most popular part of Ace Game Forums and Ace Game Blog has always been the Official Storefront based on Amazon.com. It is the only part ever on the Ace Game Forums network that you have to pay for something, and the cost is drastically low. Ace Game Forums sells basically entertainment and electronic items that we believe have a great value. We sell our items for very low prices and when we say low prices, we mean lower than anyone else we've seen that sells the same thing in the same condition. Items may be new or used and will be marked, identifying which of those it is. Please look around and enjoy! Also note, since we are an entertainment based website, we feature mainly entertainment items but this does not exclude other things outside of the entertainment category. Please enjoy the store and for every purchase you make please leave feedback, so far it has always been positive on both our Amazon accounts!

5 Days From Now

2008-03-22T18:11:35Z

All Grand Theft Auto fans and/or Xbox 360 and PS3 owners this is a reminder. In 5 days Rockstar Games is releasing the final GTA IV trailer before release on April 29, 2008. The title of the trailer is "Good Lord, What Are You Doing?" AKA "Everyone's a Rat". It is currently unknown what will be included in the final trailer but some people are predicting Gameplay and Multiplayer. Looks like we'll just have to wait 5 more days to find out for sure.
