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

Woot! New games! Some decent, some questionable.

The Tower SP (GBA) - Don't ask. Seriously.

Final Fantasy VI Advance (GBA) - I've always wanted to play this one and actually beat it. I still have to get the fifth one. I should be enjoying this one.

Kirby: Squeak Squad (DS) - How is this game rare? T_T I see it everywhere I go, I just decided to pick it up now of all times.

How ya doing, buddy?

Well, that's where I got the impression.

This game is too fucking short though. :|

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

I suppose, but some had a decent longevity to it... Like Kirby Super Star. That one was the shit.

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

But I guess it wasn't a bad buy to begin with. I've always like Kirby games, and I have this weird reluctance to sell Kirby and the Amazing Mirror. I want to, but I just can't come to terms on selling it. :|

I was speaking idiomatically.

You're not really missing anything yet, Rock. It doesn't come out until March 14th. And NBA Street Homecourt doesn't come out until next week.

He's lying, dammit. And apparently I just proved it.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Anyway, bought Mario Kart 64 from the VC. I still like it regardless of reviews. It was a classic in my book.

Oh shi- Double postage. :|

FELIPE NO

Yay! Lunar Knights get! I've heard a couple of good things about this game. I only played it for a little while, so I haven't really gotten a good feel for it yet. I have high hopes though.

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

It's pretty good. Battling is pretty basic, but it looks cool at least... The Space scenes are stupid as hell. Could've used more voice overs, but at least there are anime sequences...

So far, i'm liking it alot. It's probably one of those games i'm gonna be playing for a while.

As for games today:

Got Guitar Hero 2. Haven't tried it yet. :| Metroid Prime 2: Echoes... Haven't tried, and a friend gave me Need for Speed: Carbon.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Holy crap, more games. I'm going crazy. :|

After deciding that Need for Speed Carbon on the Wii was a piece of crap, decided to sell it at Gamestop and pick up some used GBA games. I got Boktai 1, for about $6 and Yggdra Union for an even steeper $22. I got $18 back for Carbon anyway, so I guess it compensated somewhere along the way. I wanted to use Boktai primarily with Lunar Knights. If it even does work for that matter, alot of features were taken out from the Japanese version. As for Yggdra, i've heard many things about it. Can't wait to try it.

And as for a crappy side note, Yu-Gi-Oh! GX - Spirit Caller for kicks.

I still need to buy this game... They have it for $20 at Best Buy, so why the hell not?

How is it? I've been meaning to get this... Either that or Rayman.

I always enjoyed Sonic Adventure 1... Despite how many flaws there were... At least you had a world to walk around as opposed to jumping directly from stage to stage.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Half the time, I never saw the seriousness behind finding Nunchucks... Everywhere I look, Target, Wal-Mart, Best Buy, Toys R Us, Gamestop, EB... I never fail to find one. Are they really that rare?

I could imagine how much that would ring up on eBay.

Amazing, but odd collection.

Anyway, Pokemon Diamond get! I have yet to start it up, since i've been busy. Missed picking it up on release day since I was in South Carolina at the time. Finally had the time to get it today. Looks impressive.

FELIPE NO

Ooh, Naz, if you do get Puzzle Quest, tell me how it is. I've been reluctant to get it until I hear something decent about it.

Most amazing jew boots

I'll probably buy it once i'm out of my Pokemon phase.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Ugh, I finally broke down and bought Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords for about $20 with the help of some gift cards. I tried a little of it and I'm liking it so far. It's basically Bejeweled versus another computer. I still have to get the hang of the skills and level up system, but that will come eventually.

Next on my list, Super Paper Mario. :|

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I finally bought Super Paper Mario the day before I left for Ohio. The game is great so far. And this might be the first Wii game I can finish. I have no patience to beat games for some reason. <_<

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

Whoo! Thank God for deals at Gamestop. Finally managed to get some games out of the Buy Two, Get One free deal there.

Rayman: Raving Rabbids (Wii) - Fun game, just got started on it. Those rabbids are quite amusing.

Metal Slug Anthology (Wii) - Depending how much I like the game, I'll keep it. So far, I like what I see.

Rogue Galaxy (PS2) - Haven't tried it yet, but I have high hopes for it.

Oh, I also bought a cooling fan stand for my Wii. It isn't exactly cooling my Wii, but it looks pretty damn cool.

(pictures coming soon)

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

Whee! Bought Pokemon Battle Revolution. The game looks amazing in comparison to the previous games. I'm pleasantly surprised with it.

Although, playing through it, I feel most reviewers are going to agree that nothing has really changed in the series.

There's also a serious lack of mini-games. But Wi-Fi Battling is a nice touch.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Etrian Odyssey. Woot. I need something to save my sanity when I'm down in south Jersey overnight. My aunt's weekend home is probably the most boring place in existence and I'd figure I should let this game drive me insane rather the place itself...

I do have my Wii, but whatever.

Got some new multiplayer games during the Thanksgiving break. Picked up Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games for about 20 bucks, since I traded in a couple games for it. Exceeded my expectations of the game, and over the weekend I had a lot of fun with it playing with a bunch of friends and family.

While I was at it, used my gift card from Toys R Us to pick up Mario Party DS. Fun stuff. Managed to play a good majority of the story mode with Mario last night and made the greatest comeback ever.

Last turn. We're in DK's Stone Statue, and Luigi had just bought 4 stars to bring him up to 5. I have three stars. I need two spaces to hit a Duel Space and on top of that if I hit the Duel Space, I need to roll a star duel up to even catchup. So I managed to roll the two I needed to hit the space. I roll the wheel and the ante is two stars. I managed to win. I end up winning the game with 5 stars and Luigi is down with 3.

Whoo!

How ya doing, buddy?

Star Fox Assault. Fun stuff, but there's some things that they shouldn't have messed with... Like the Landmaster... How do you have a decent system in Star Fox 64, then mess it up and make it more complicated than it really should. <_<

Um...

For Christmas, I got Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles. A very good rail shooter, with fairly good graphics. It's one of those games you have to play with other people. Otherwise, alone, you're fucked. Me and my friend got through the first half while me and my brother got through the second half.

Basically now, I'm just trying to beat the side missions and stuff.

I've also picked up Ghost Squad in essence of getting a Wii Zapper for Christmas along with RE:UC. The game itself is a lot of fun especially with the whole profile aspect and the game getting harder as you play the game and beat it. For some odd reason, I still can't beat the Jungle mission on Level 1... That damn boss...

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Hooray for Gamestop and their Buy 2 Get 1 Free Used Games deal.

Firstly, the yearly basketball game of NBA 2K8. I just realized I need to at least play one sports game per year and have the satisfaction of having a custom player dominate Association Mode. This is for the PS2, btw.

Next, I finally had the chance to pick up Odin Sphere. This board has said many a good thing about this game, and it was $35 and I had the money to pick it up with, so why the hell not? I still have yet to try it, but I expect nothing but great things from it, minusing the loading times.

And my free game was Draglade for the DS. I kinda chose it off whim since the game looked pretty interesting. As far as playing it, it's fun, but I still need to get a little further at it. And hopefully this won't be the game that kills my L button... It's pretty much been the recurring cause of why I need to get a new DS ever year. <_<

I would've chosen Zone of the Enders: The Second Runner as my free game, but it was too late before I realized it was there. Until next time...

There's nowhere I can't reach.
