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

Stupid question: Does this apply to Final Fantasy Tactics as well? I remember the game went out of print for about a year - and then the first batch of Greatest Hits discs didn't work in most PSX or PS2 systems and were recalled or something.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Land Of Illusion reminds me of DuckTails on NES and god did that game make my fucking blood boil.

Most amazing jew boots

CoD2 was the easiest 1000 achievements points Ive ever gotten

How ya doing, buddy?

Amazon.com has something that all you Xbox 360 owners might be interested in...



How ya doing, buddy?

I grabbed the new Wolverine game (took me three stores to find the last copy!) and while I was there spied Mercenaries 2 for $20. I know its not a good game but for $20 I'm sure its fine.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I agree with Jessy's PSA.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Picked up Terminator Salvation, hearing it was AWFUL and being proven only... mildly correct? Its not a good game, and I feel like I wasted money since this game would've been considered run-of-the-mill during the PSX era but it isn't particularly "broken" either.

Then again, I have a 1000 points on Superman Returns, so nevermind me.

I actually had the girl die on me more than once.

But it is a farily easy game. Its just a matter of "where do I hide away from my squadmates so we can flank the enemy". Once you have that - the game is a breeze.

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

Traded in Terminator Salvation for Fable 2 - which is surprisingly excellent. I've rarely fallen for a game this quickly. Good dumb fun - and an orgy achievement to boot.

Thank you for supporting the game series which killed the space sim. Jerk.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Laugh all you like - I bought Republic Heroes for the 360. Its really just a less broken version of Jedi Power Battles but theres no penalty for dying this time and the achievements are pretty easy to get.

And come on. Star Wars.

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

I don't know if I'd call it awesome. The game had one serious fucking flaw - the characters were too damn tiny on screen to make any judgement on the jumping puzzles.

Then again, I was really amused by the Phantom Menace game so what the fuck do I know?

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

Fuck yeah, Snake Eater. This game seems to be the least liked in the series, but I thought it was the best by far.

Got Dragon Age Origins.

Why is this game so acclaimed? I don't get it.

Total opposite for me. Theres nothing to chew on in DA:O; hell, your character doesn't even talk during discussions.

FELIPE NO

I snagged Vanquish. It's pretty good so far but I think I made a mistake starting it on Hard difficulty. Aside from that though it's just been Mass Effect 3 MP lately.

I've also heard bad problems - namely the removal of fog - in SH HD.
