Best Weekend Ever #2, I was finally able to track down Rorona for a sane price, new and all!


Did some further last-gen gems shopping/hunting:

Wedding present from missus and myself to us :-D.
Most expensive household gadget we own, but fantastic coffe!
 
Forgot to do these individually when I got them, so I'll just throw them up together:

Got Graces about a week and a half ago, and finished it up last night. Absolutely fantastic game. Vesperia arrived a few days ago, and I plan on firing it up later today.

edit; $120 shipped, cjelly


Now sell it to me for $20,- ;)
I really want it myself, but $100+ is a bit much. I've only paid ridiculous prices for a few games (Earthbound mint in box, Chrono trigger mint in box, stuff like that)

Anyway, I forgot some stuff yesterday:

Opoona. Always wanted to play that, got it pretty cheap.

Driver SF for a few Euros, damn fun game. I'm not into driving/ racing games normally but I had a blast playing through this.

Mario + Luigi KNEX bikes. No idea where I'm gonna put them, but they look pretty cool.

Sackboy Resistance thingy. A colleague of mine got me and my other colleagues one of these, very nice of him!

That reminds me, Capcom should have Vanessa in a future MvC. :(

Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy. Nintendo 3DS. $28
Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D. Nintendo 3DS. $20
Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure Starter Pack. Nintendo 3DS. $50

More 3DS games to add to my collection. I've heard nothing but good things on Ace Combat; for $28, I'll bite. Mercenaries was purchased from my brother who hadn't even played/opened it yet. Finally, Skylanders was at a price I was willing to pull the trigger on. I had played Skylanders extensively over Christmas break when visiting family and had a great time with it. I know the 3DS version is more of a platformer but I think that fits nicely for a handheld game.

Star Wars: The Old Republic. PC. $45

So I had this elaborate plan of attack on my backlog. I have an Excel sheet with approximate completion times as well as games that I narrowed down from my collection that I had planned to complete before the end of 2012. Basically, I had a schedule. After purchasing The Old Republic, that schedule was thrown out the window. :/

"Retro" gaming: PS1 MemCard, MGS 2: Substance and Z.O.E.
Bought the two games from a guy in another gaming forum for 17€ with shipping and he put the MemCard for free in the package. Nice deal, I think. There would have been a copy of MGS 1, but the eBay seller sent me a broken copy ... at least I'm getting my money back.

Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy
19€ at GAME UK. That soundtrack! Pretty good game so far, my first of the series.

Driver: SF is awesome. It goes in the Criterion category of, 'I don't like racing games, but this is fun'.

Hope they make another.

I really want to buy this...Does anyone know how it looks on a big screen LCD?

It is not that bad IMO, just make sure to press the PS button and change from 16:9 to 4:3, otherwise it does look like ass, as i personally don't mind the black bars on the side.

Good to see Shadows of the Damned getting some love in several pickups in this thread. I just recently started playing it after having picked it up when it came out. I needed something different as I was getting burned out with the other games I was playing. It certainly is that, different.

All I got for the Vernal Equinox was this stupid tag
Biggest pick-up I've ever made: 2012 Honda Fit Sport, replacing our beat-up '90 Honda Accord.

shots fired?

i personally thought he got a mod to change his name

Nope. This pretty much confirms it:

i got into a major car accident that totalled my car which renders every game i'll buy for many months unexciting :( ....but believe me when i say this, i'm trying my best to enjoy them, and most of all i'm glad i'm still alive!

I'm so pissed I passed on a complete Panzer Dragoon Saga with a water damaged manual for $149 and a cart only Earthbound for $80 in the last year. :| Dumb ass....

If it makes you feel any better, I passed on a boxed copy (open/used, but still had the box) of Earthbound in 2008 for $75 because the video game store I was at had a habit of overpricing things and I swore up and down I could probably find a copy at some Goodwill store for $20.

Sadly no fun pickups for me this month, only pickups for me were an expensive an emergency room, extended hospital stay bill and 6 medications. At least one of the medications was Morphine and even the average games in my backlog seem fun heh.

Ordered Shadows of the Damned PS3 from amazon and this is what they sent me instead :-( Not even worth giving away in the freebie thread, methinks. And an eyesore for my collection. At least amazon has great CS and are sending me another copy of the game I ordered.

Went round to see my dad today, and he mentioned was going through some stuff in the loft and was going to throw some stuff away. Anyway, just looking through and I found all my old megadrive games!
