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

@Ekon - At least you have a good place to get SNES games... I've been dying to get Super Mario RPG for a long ass time now...

Anyway... I've gotten...

Disgaea: Hour of Darkness - I love how the balance in this game was completely annihilated and how strong your people can get. I've only gotten two of the endings, but it's still a great game to boot. This will defenitely get me in to tactics games again.

Dark Cloud 2 - Managed to snag a new copy. I haven't gotten very far in it, but i'm loving what i'm playing right now. It's so much fun.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Tetris DS - One of the games on my list that I was intending to get and finally did. The game brings back the old school feel with a new look. I like it alot.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Just got Lost Magic for the DS. A pretty fun game, but gets WAY too hard in points where you don't want them to get hard... I'm stuck on one mission and it's really pissing me off.

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

Nothing too amazing recently... Two for One Used Games deal at Gamestop. Took advantage of it.

PS2 - Tales of Legendia
PS2 - Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams
PS2 - Resident Evil 4 (<- The free one.)

Earlier...

DS - Big Brain Academy

I'm liking Legendia alot and Onimusha also. I haven't put enough time into RE4 yet though. I know it's a good game, but I hate the fact that I can't find save points when I need to. Big Brain is fun, especially if you have a bunch of friends to play with. It's fun competing against them. Who knew doing simple brain teaser games was so much fun?

I'm also pissed off that I lost my copy of the New Super Mario Bros... If I can't find it, I might just pick up another copy. Hopefully a used one if there's one around my area. I just can't believe I can't find it. T_T

How ya doing, buddy?

Just got Sid Meier's Pirates! on the XBOX. The game is alot more interesting than I thought. The Gamespot review stand true that you'd be playing this game so long that you wouldn't realize how fast time went. The game itself is kinda easy, but then again, i'm playing it on the easiest difficulty. So, I gotta kick it up and see what else the game could throw at me. This game was worth it, for me at least.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I don't mind the repetitiveness at all. It's more of the whole exploring and finding stuff that's more engaging to me. The sword battles could've worked a little better though, so could the dancing... Oh well, beggars can't be choosers.

New game today!

Clubhouse Games (DS) - Oh. Em. Eff. Gee. Full of random goodness and fun. If you own a DS, GET THIS DAMN GAME.

Most amazing jew boots

It just is. You can't deny 42 classic card, board, and various other games all in one cartridge. Either way, for $30 it was a pretty good deal.

FELIPE NO

Wo0t. Good games run today!

After being disappointed yesterday, my Gamestop finally had their Children of Mana in stock. Picked that up along with Final Fantasy XII: Collecter's Edition. I played CoM already and i'm liking what I see. I still have yet to try Final Fantasy. I'm probably gonna play that tonight.

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

A whole bunch of random games:

Megaman Battle Network 6: Cybeast Falzar (GBA) - And I haven't even played the first five. There's something seriously wrong with this scene.

Metal Slug Advanced (GBA) - Five days and i'm STILL stuck on the 2nd Mission. T_T. Good fun though.

Naruto: Clash of Ninja - Don't ask. I plan to sell this one once I whore out all three extra characters..

NBA 2K7 (XBOX) - I thought that it would be nice to get it on this system for a change... Then again, that was a bad idea. I'm planning to trade it in so I could get the PS2 version instead.

Yakuza (PS2) - Haven't played alot of it, but it's pretty cool.

Pikmin 2 (GC) - I heard this was an amazing game, so why the hell not?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The 360 one plays great, but I wasn't blessed to get fouled when I was playing it at my local Gamestop.

And i'd sacrifice better graphics for control any day. <_<

I'm trying to get used to the XBOX, but it's hard to.

How ya doing, buddy?

Just got Final Fantasy III. So far i'm loving it. And that cutscene they had in the commercial is no lie. They actually smacked that into the game intro. Even on the DS it still looks amazing. Only think i'm upset about is there no ATB system, but that's something small to look over. Otherwise, i'll probably be spending long nights with this game.

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

And I thought I had problems on gaming priority... My situation is:

I've been meaning to play Final Fantasy XII for sometime now, but everytime I get the chance to play that, it's been inturrupted by my NBA 2K7 time. Now that i've cooled down on 2K7, i've been side tracked again from getting Elite Beat Agents. Figuring that I won't be beating Hard Rock Mode anytime soon, I put off sometime to play FFXII, but then THAT was side tracked by Yakuza. After settling that down, I ended up getting FFIII and Madden 07. Wanting the milk the best out of both games, i've shrugged off FFXII even more. On top of trying to make time for that, I still need to make time for Children of Mana.

T_T

Anyway, on topic... Madden 07 for the PS2. I've been meaning to get it for a while. I finally got the chance after changing $50 worth of change into cold hard cash.

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

Hurray for 2 for 1 used deals! Managed to get some at my local Gamestop.

Naruto: Ultimate Ninja (PS2) - Played this prior to purchasing it. From the times I have played it, I had fun playing it. Better than the crap button masher on the Gamecube.

Dreamfall: The Longest Journey (XBOX) - An interesting game in my mind. My friend has this and I wanted to get it for myself.

Doom 3: Collector's Edition (XBOX) - Just heard it was good. This was my free game and there was nothing worth it on the PS2, so I figured to go with this.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Funny, every Gamestop or EB I go to has this game. I've been meaning to get it, but i'm not so sure about it. <_<

Anyway, another game:

Need for Speed Carbon: Collector's Edition - Bought it off a friend who was bored with it. I wanted to try it myself, so I bought it from him. Cheaply, of course. The game's alright. Could've been better at some points.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Although, I heard the second one was way better. Also, on the Children of Mana thing chato was asking about. The game is probably more fun to play with friends. You can help each other out and party up. But if you look beyond that, it gets a little tedious at times because most of the game is hack and slash and all the exploring is dungeon crawling. Either way, despite me selling the game, it's still a solid game within itself to play.

And i've gone on another game buying tangent.

Digimon World DS - I've been on and off about getting this game for two weeks. Considering I have to sit in a school bus for an hour to get to a choral festival, and that I'm almost done with Gyakuten Saiban 2, I needed something else to hold me over. I'll probably see how far I can get with this game, and maybe I'll start shuffling back to the other games I should be playing... Like Final Fantasy III... Love it to death, but Salamander is a bitch, especially if you're underleveled. >_<

Most amazing jew boots

Not exactly a purchase, more like a recent gift....

Yoshi Island DS - The game is great so far. The graphics are superb, the stages are long as hell. T_T

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin - Got this for someone, it was a used game, so the package was already open... I tried it myself... I know, i'm an ass... Anyway, it's pretty good. I like it so far. I'm not crazy for the Castlevania series, but hell, it's still good.

Most amazing jew boots

Speaking of Eternal Darkness... I managed to find one easily for my friend a couple months ago... I should pick up my own copy just in-case it goes too rare. T_T

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Everything at Costco is cheaper. I'd buy everything there if I could, but I only go there every two weeks or so, and sometimes I just don't feel like waiting.

I was gonna get Yoshi's Island DS there, until a friend got it for me.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

First batch of games i've actually bought in three weeks.

Victorious Boxing 2 (PS2) - Heard this game was actually pretty good, thought I might check it out.

Tales of Symphonia (GC) - It was one of those Gamecube games I just needed to have, so I got it before it was too late.

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

Whoo. First new purchase post of the year... Three days later <_<

Anyway...

Karaoke Revolution presents American Idol (PS2) - I'm a sucker for the series. I didn't get the country one, but I wanted this one. I got the deluxe edition with the mike since I needed a second one anyway. The idea of this one is really nice and the deluxe box is shiny as hell too. >.<

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

That was my situation, but my headset sucked. <_<

There's a total of 40 songs. The vast majority of them I know, and the competition part itself is actually pretty good. Although the judges tend to repeat a lot of comments. They have some stand-in for Paula Abdul named Laura, but Simon and Randy are there for judging.

Like in reality, Simon will no got easy on you. He hasn't for me so far. And i'm in the top 10 already. T_T

But they still have the normal mode available, which is always a good thing.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I'd kill to get a Wii also. Had my chance, but I was in school and about a half hour away from the Target my friend told me about. T_T

I was close to getting one even though I was in school. My friend would've bought one for me if he had the money, and I would've just had to pay him back for whatever he bought it for. Problem was that he was short on money and couldn't find his little brother's Christmas money stash. So my luck ran out... Again...

And Yggdra Union looks like a really good game... I was thinking about picking it up... What's it about anyway?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Well, so far, I paid off for about half of Phoenix Wright: Justice for All. And hope to get it on Tuesday or something. I already beat the Japanese version, but I want to own it for the sake of having it.

FELIPE NO

Finally picked up Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All... I've beaten it already, but I want to own it for the sake of it. I'm just playing through it again though. Such a good game. >.<

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

Yay, alot of gaming crap from Chaotic again. Whoo.

Nintendo Wii - FINALLY, DAMMIT. But pity I ordered it online, I have to wait a week or so until I actually get it. I'm not worried though. It's just the waiting game that sucks...

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Wii) - Getting it with the Wii. Played the GC version a little, this one is gonna be good.

Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz (Wii) - Getting it with the Wii. I heard good things about it. Thought I should try it out.

Trauma Center: Second Opinion (Wii) - Loved Trauma Center on the DS. Needed to get this one. I'm getting this one with the system also.

Madden 07 (Wii) - I had the PS2 version a while back... Heard a bunch of good things about the Wii version, so I thought I should give it a second chance.

Elebits (Wii) - One of the games I'm getting based on the hype around it. Heard it was good, I don't doubt it's good, but hell, it's a better choice than Red Steel.

WarioWare: Smooth Moves (Wii) - I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS FUCKING GAME. I WANNA SHAKE MY ASS LIKE A RIDICULOUS PERSON.

Crazy Taxi 3: High Roller (XBOX) - No more Wii games for now, I swear. Anyway, I have the other two, thought I should finish the collection now.

Phantom Dust (XBOX) - My friend had this for his XBOX, I loved it. It was only $4.99, so what better time to get it than now?

Jam it back in, in the dark.
