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

Just got Killer 7 for GC two days ago for about 20 bucks. I'm actually enjoying it quite a bit, and also like some of the dialogues. This is probably the last GC game I'm getting before Wii comes out, unless I find Eternal Darkness or Ikaruga for cheap somewhere.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yay, more games! I got Naruto: Clash of Ninja 2 when it was released, then today, I got Timesplitters 2 and NBA Street Vol. 2 for 8 bucks (CDN) each, so awsome. I did miss out the chance to get Courtside 2002 for $4 though.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Ikaruga (GCN)

Finally got this game, after searching for a long time. It was a pretty hefty $49.99 (CDN) plus tax, but the disc itself is practically scratch-free, unlike the other used games I bought at the same location. I'll have to be balancing between this and Zelda: TP for the next while.

How ya doing, buddy?

Just got Hulk Ultimate Destruction and Eternal Darkness for GCN. I got Hulk because it seemed like one of those games to play just for messing around, and ED for the high praises for its story. Both are 2nd hand and $25 CDN, not so cheap, but I guess it's worth it for these rather uncommom/rare games. Hulk is in poor condition, but at least it plays fine. Yay, my search for those awsome rare GCN games (Ikaruga, ED) is complete!

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

Got Animal Crossing on the 27th, since WalMart was selling it for $20 cdn, $10 cheaper than usual, which is kind of an incentive to buy this game, since I've always been a bit interested in it.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Just got Wii Play and Super Paper Mario. Wii Play mostly for the extra controller, although some of the games are actually fun, but not really for long stretches. Mario I got for something to tide me over until the next big game, although it's really not holding my attention too well, and I seem to be going back to my library of GCN games right now...

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I've been on a purchasing spree of sorts lately, mostly looking for some old GCN games that I never got around to buying.


No More Heroes
Got it and beat it. Good game, and I liked the style and personality throughout the entire time, although a bit short. It's a bit monotonous, and I thought the boss fights were a bit easy, but the overall combat experience is actually pretty fun.

Resident Evil (remake)
I got this because I have always been somewhat interested in the RE series, and I did play through RE2 a long time ago (on emulator with cheats and quick saves and all that), and RE4, but have always been deterred by knowing the fact that saving requires Ink Ribbons. However, finally decided I should get this now before it gets impossible to find. Started to play a bit, but I have to say, knowing that dead zombies eventually become Crimson Heads is totally making me just avoid attacking them alltogether until I get the kerosene canister. >.>

Resident Evil 0
Just got that today, couldn't find it when I got RE, so I haven't started playing.

Baten Kaitos
I didn't getting too far, but seems decent so far. The aging magnus aspect is annoying, but it's interesting in a sense. The combat is a bit bland early on, but after a couple of class-ups, it gets a lot more fun. Still haven't really started making crazy combos though.

Baten Kaitos Origins
Pretty much the same case with RE0, plus, I think I should finish BK first.

Megaman Anniversary Collection
Just felt I should get this, being a pretty solid collection of Megaman games, even though I could probably find them on emu. Played a bit so far, and all I have to say is that MM7 is so much easier than MM1 (might also be that I actually played a decent amount of MM7 on SNES before).

Bloody Roar Primal Fury
Played a demo of this way back when (when it was new) and thought it was fun, but I never had much exposure to the popular fighters back then too. So I got it for $10 cdn, coping for a decent experience, and I have to say it's alright. The movelists are a bit limited, and doesn't flow as smooth as SC2, but I really wasn't expecting it to be at the same level anyway. Although, I have to say that there are actually some notable similarities between this game and the Naruto GCN games, both developed by the 8ing/Hudson.



I'm still looking for some games, like the Megaman X Collection and Capcom vs SNK 2 EO. I was considering some other games like Aggressive Inline and Starfox Adventures, and I saw both, but just couldn't get myself to put down the money for them.
