Now should be effect

Oh, for GOD'S sake. How God DAMN embarrassing.

You'll get there, don't worry. Affect vs effect is one of the worst things for people to get their head around in English. I now find it pretty easy and intutitive which word to use when I'm writing / speaking. But I still can't easily explain to other people how to choose correctly. Let me give it a try:

When you are having an influence on something you are having an effect: your pokemon's confusion attack was super-effective.

When you are being influenced by something you are being affected: Your opponent's pokemon has been affected by confusion.

OT. Half price GoW remaster selling well, because it is now at the price it should have been when it first launched.

I thought the Halo 5 bundle would be on a steady rise in the charts, so it is strange to me to see it fall back a bit. I expected it to go in one dirtection from here until at least the 20th, and depending on stock availability rise even further from the 20th to the 27th. They should have made the bundle $450. A $100 premium is a good level to pitch this bundle, esp with only giving a digital version of the game. Still I suppose if they sell through 100% of the production run within a few weeks of the game's launch you'd have to conclude that they priced the bundle well in order to get all the sales they wanted and with a $150 premium.
