[General Discussion] Recent Game Purchases, or what I bought instead of fourteen new dildos this weekend

I went and picked up Street Fight Alpha Anthology for PS2 today. Of course I am saddened that it was not given a 360 release {oh man SFA2Gold on XBL against Manitoba would be awesome fun}, but unfortunately that isn't the case. Still it's nice to have SFA, SFA2, SFA2Gold, SFA3 {, and Super Pocket Fighter} all on one disc.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I bought the new Splinter Cell for the 360 today, because the multiplayer looked really interesting. Well, I basically suck at the game after playing it for a few hours, so that is saddening, but I guess that's ok since I had fun while doing it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Suikoden is Konami nerd.

Also I accidentally bought this FFXII junk, in hopes that it will be so bad that it will completely turn me away from video games for the rest of my life.

Double Post:
Ok it wasn't really an accident.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I picked up MLB 2K7 for the 360 last night. Too bad the Lamestop in my town only had it for PSP {I like how the clerk was like "Man no one cares about PSP"}, so I had to drive an hour to a Gamestop that did have it.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I bought Assassin's Creed Limited Edition for PS3 last week. Wanted the 360 version, but couldn't find it, and I wanted the LE more than any achievement points. It's pretty fun, especially when fighting a group of about 20 guards at the same time. I don't really get the point of flag collecting when there isn't an achievement tied to it though. Oh well.

Then I got Uncharted: Drakes Fortune for christmas. It's really cool. I like the characters and the setting of the game a lot. It is almost as though they were going to do Indiana Jones and the Tropical Island, but then got the license got taken away, so they had this lush tropical world, with this Indiana Jones adventure built, and gave us a still pretty cool and likeable hero. First PS3 game worth its price.

And unfortunately I bought Guitar Hero III for the 360 today. The backstory: Sunday, I was over at a friend's house and his stepdad had just opened his GH3 for his PC. He and my friend were in there playing around with it, but complaining that it wasn't acting right. Since I am the only professional computer tech in the building, I get to take a look. I had never in my life played Guitar Hero. I play a song, find that it doesn't respond when I actually play. So I play another song, taking video lag into account, hitting the buttons ahead of where they are displayed on screen. So I set the visuals lower, play a song, dominate it and unfortunately enjoy it. Now I have Guitar Hero III. It's cool how the guitar is a Les Paul, and I own a real Les Paul that I use to play real guitar with. When I get home from work, I will see how terrible I am at higher than Medium difficulty.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I remember when you could buy greatest hits FFVII for like ten American dollars. That was a much simpler time. Ah yes, the year was 2008. I'm kind of old though, so many of you may not remember the year 2008.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

You just have to sit so far from your tv that you can't tell that even with component cables, the PS2 looks terrible.

FELIPE NO

See, that is why I just order my games off Amazon. I think I've been in a Gamestop twice in the past year, both times for things other than games. Putting up with their garbage simply isn't worth it.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Devs would rather launch a broken game than lose face by pushing the release back a month. Nevermind that launching a broken game doesn't exactly improve their image.

Also, I bought Dragon Age for 360.

How ya doing, buddy?
