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

Amazon are selling the Madcatz Rock Band portable drum kit for £5.25 (Rather than the usual £50 asking price) so I ordered one. It's just flat pads that you lay out on a table and a foot pedal but the customer reviews suggest it's actually better quality than the official one.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Now that I have a laptop that'll play modern games, I bought Dawn of War Anthology the other week which is the first game and the first two expansions.

I'm generally pretty crap with rts games, I just don't have the organisational skills or interest in build orders to play them well but DoW's emphasis on killing stuff over building stuff suits me perfectly. I'm plowing through the campaign from the basic game first and I've played enough skirmish games to work out that any AI difficulty below normal is pointless. Skexis tells me the sequel is even better so once I've played through all the bits I've got I'll probably pick up the final expansion for the first game and then the sequel and expansion.

I've also probably spent more time colouring in Space Marines than playing the game if I'm honest.

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

Yeah, I probably will do that, once I've cleared some of my backlog. Still have to finish Earthbound (I got distracted), then play the Digital Devil Saga games and I just ordered Bayonetta so I'll be playing that when it arrives too (Only £17 from Amazon at the moment).

Back in the day I had a fully painted, 3,000 point Dark Angel army and a similar sized Dark Elf one and probably only played ten or so games with each. Whilst the backstories and universes for Warhammer and 40k are incredible, the actual games weren't brilliant, Man O' War and Blood Bowl were the best games GW ever made.

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

Sounds like Advance Wars.

Hi Xellos, by the way.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Did I mention I bought Just Cause 2 for 360?

I've not played it yet, probably will in the next day or so since I'm bored of the Reach beta now.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I ordered Resonance of Fate yesterday, which should more than keep me going until Reach comes out.

FELIPE NO

The PC version of Last Remnant is a lot more user-friendly and less glitchy but it's also far easier by all accounts which I reckon would take away a lot of the fun of the game.

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