Whether it's in the mail on order, pre order, planning to or the what not.
All games welcome, all systems welcome.
Somebody say something..
:P
I just ordered Folklore for PS3, nice underrated game. Free DLC too.

I back up the save if I were you. Especially going for all achievements.
Dlc is pretty good too since a few of the super rare items easier to farm there. Plus extra weapons and 2 sets of costumes.Posted 2 years ago # -
Ah, Nier and Resonance of Fate. Two of my absolute favorites from last generation. I wish Sega would do a remaster of Resonance like they did with Valkyria Chronicles, with a sexy steelbook. But Kanye West has a better chance of being elected in 2020.
Here's my recent pickups.
I had to order the Striker Pack from eBay, because no stores anywhere near me had a copy. I also outbid some poor sap at the last second for the Gunvolt floppy. It has a text based game on it, apparently, and includes a key for the Steam version of the game. They were given out at PAX 2015. I can't actually use the disk, because it's 2016 and not 1990, but it's a nice little collectible.

Picked up the Sega 3D Classics Collection today.
I wonder if Sega will release a second one. Even though I already have Outrun, Gunstar Heroes, and Sonic 2 from the eShop, I'd like to have them physically.

Am I the only one wasting money on games?!
I picked these up today...
I got the Shove Knight Amiibo so I can unlock his boss fight in Gunvolt 2. I might end up picking up the Wii U version of Shovel Knight so I can use it to unlock multiplayer. Something for me and my brother to try out.
Sucks that World of Final Fantasy isn't PSTV compatible, but those chibi characters are so freaking cute. The demo was pretty decent, so why not. Plus, I used birthday money to buy it, so no major loss to me if I end up hating it.

I just bought Nier, XV is 25 days away, and the only thing resembling an allowance I get every 2 or 3 weeks at best (i.e. When we go there) from my grandparents, and it's "just" 50 bucks.
The only thing I might be able to buy between those two are PS Store games on sale. And there's almost nothing worth picking up besides Ratchet PS4 and Star Ocean 5. And to do that I need to make a new account because f- you Sony for making Plus-only discounts a week after my subscription has run out. And SO5 is supposedly s**t. And taking a picture of my download list isn't exactly "Recent pickup games: variety edition to the max" worthy. Yes, this 13-post-long topic has a dignity.I got the Shovel Knight Amiibo so I can unlock his boss fight in Gunvolt 2.
That stupid statue really is the harbinger of on-"disc" DLC, holy crap. Why buy other Amiibo when this one unlocks everything in every game ever?The demo was pretty decent, so why not.
Good for you, personally I found it pretty terrible. As I said in another topic, the battles were tremedously slow. Why the f- do I have to wait for the icons in the turn "gauge" to reach the top where there's nothing happening? If you're going to copy Atelier and Grandia (-clones, not the original, IIRC), do it right.Posted 2 years ago # -

MemberI'd of loved to have had an allowance like that. I don't know if I ever got 50 dollars a year at that age.
I recently bought Ocarina of Time 3D, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, and NES Remix Pack for the Wii U from Target with their buy 2 get 1 free sale (And a 10% coupon). And I got Forza Horizon 2 for the Xbox 360 out of the Wal-Mart bargain bin a few days ago for $30, which is the cheapest I've ever seen it (And online it's getting more difficult to find new and climbing up in price a bit).
Wanted to play the 360 port of FH2 since it sounds like it turned out well and I suspect it will be a rarity someday (And I enjoy playing games that not too many people ever will). Plus I enjoy the 360's custom soundtrack support in open world racers like this franchise. So even though I intend to buy the superior XB1 version someday, I wanted this one too.
Was going to order Pikmin 3, Sega 3D Classics Collection, and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze from Target as well, but the first two went out of stock by the 2nd day of the sale. So just 3 games instead of 6.

Am I the only one wasting money on games?!
My most recent physical game acquisition was months ago, and my most recent physical game purchase was (also a few months ago, just not as many) Summon Night 6, which doesn't come until March. And that purchase was made with the knowledge that there wasn't really any other game I'd be buying for a while.
Why the f- do I have to wait for the icons in the turn "gauge" to reach the top where there's nothing happening?
I haven't played the demo, but what you're describing just sounds like the Active Time Battle system that's been in a few Final Fantasy games before.

I never had an allowance.

MemberI haven't played the demo, but what you're describing just sounds like the Active Time Battle system that's been in a few Final Fantasy games before.
A much slower and much more boring version of it. Of a battle system that isn't all that great to begin with.
And apparently you can change the speed at which this ATB bar fills up (only in the main menu), so my point is half-moot. The animations are still FFVIII-Eden-tier slow, even if you can "fast-forward" (or pretend to, because it doesn't change much) through them.If you're going to copy Atelier [...], do it right.
What I meant by that was, this ATB bar is eerly similar to (a much smaller version of) Atelier Ayesha's, even down to how the icons are shaped. Only difference is that the icons "jump" to the top if there's nothing above them, as it should be. And that it's on the right.And sorry, I'm late.

MemberWal-Mart's Black Friday ad is out. Can't tell what every game is, but I see a few titles that I want to get. Pikmin 3 for $15, Twilight Princess HD for $25, and Call of Duty Black Ops and World at War for $8 each.
Had Black Ops 2 for a year now, but figured that I should play the original's campaign first, just in case they're somehow connected.
I wonder if Sega will release a second one. Even though I already have Outrun, Gunstar Heroes, and Sonic 2 from the eShop, I'd like to have them physically.
Outrun is actually on volume 1, which Sega sadly skipped releasing in the West.
The other two are on the upcoming Volume 3 along with the newly ported Turbo Outrun, several other older downloads, and 3 further new additions to the line. Hopefully it will follow the 2nd volume in heading westward.
What do you think of the Super Scaler games on the collection that we did get? I always liked Galaxy Force and when I get this, it will be my first experience with Thunder Blade and Power Drift.
Picked up the Sega 3D Classics Collection today.
Found the hidden 10th game yet?

I still haven't opened it yet. I just finished with both games in the Striker Pack. Sucks that they didn't include Outrun. They made a similar mistake with the Dreamcast Collection on the 360. Yeah, there are some fun games in the compilation, but they aren't the most recognizable. Hopefully we do get a second one so we can get Outrun, Gunstar, Sonic 2, etc.

Got around to opening my backlog of mail today.
Here's hoping Shantae ends up being rare. I need to work out a couple of days off back to back from my jobs. I've really been wanting to play GTA IV again lately.

MemberStayed up to midnight on Thursday to order 3 games at Wal-Mart for their Thursday sales, but they were in-store only I discovered. Didn't feel like going into Wal-Mart at 6 PM tonight and went off downstate after thanksgiving dinner to instead explore.
Ended up at a Wal-Mart at 10 PM downstate and they still had most of the games on sale in stock, including the three that piqued my interest. Got Twilight Princess HD for $25 (Which to my surprise was the Amiibo edition and thus is my first Amiibo) and Call of Duty Black Ops and World at War for the Xbox 360 for $8 each.
Almost have that franchise finished for the 360/PS3 generation. Barring Black Ops III which lacks the single player campaign that I play and which is thus useless to me on last-gen systems since I've never even tried the multiplayer, I'm only missing the port of the PC original off XBLA and Advanced Warfare.

I managed to pickup one of the black New 3DS'. That was the only thing that I wanted. I haven't opened it yet. I'm waiting on my face covers to arrive. I never was a fan of systems with characters and such on them, so I ended up having to import the default black covers from Nintendo's Japanese site, using Tenso. Their Japanese site sales them as replacement parts, something they don't offer on the NA site. For whatever reason. Because Nintendo, I guess.
The only reason I was able to get one was because I had to help with the sale Thursday. Just so happen to walk by and saw that they were going out then, instead of Friday. Like Nintendo originally advertised. I've seen online a lot of people got screwed because of it. Amazon didn't send out alerts letting people know they had them up for pre-order on Wednesday. Something I'm a little annoyed by also, since I had opted to be notified, and was not. I was hoping they would fly low enough under the radar I could get my mom a white one next week, but I should have known better. Guess I'll get her one of the last Mario bundles and import some white covers. I doubt she'll much care for the really big and bright photo of Mario on that bundle.

MemberBought Pikmin 3 off Wal-Mart's website for $15 the other night.
ToysRUs is having a good sale. Buy 1 game that's $20 or less, and get the 2nd game for $5. Bought Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze and Sega 3D Classics Collection. With free shipping and after tax, it was just $27.
Other than an Atari Flashback Portable, I think my game buying is about done for 2017 now, minus Zelda next spring/summer which I think I'll buy day 1 on the Wii U. And I really should just bite the bullet and buy Fatal Frame on the Wii U already, since I don't see any hope for a retail release at this point.
10 games in now after 3 years of owning this system, and I still don't own a single 3rd party Wii U retail game. I'll grab Deus Ex, Shovel Knight, DuckTales, and Need for Speed eventually though.

That took a while. Like, more than half my damn life.Oh, and if you're wondering, that piece of paper on the second image came with the game. It has signatures of all(?) the people who worked on the game, like that ugly TBT (which you can't see at all because *) for Tabata, its director, with "thank you for your support" written behind them, in Italian and Japanese. On the other side of the right folding, which is the last thing you open before you get that, it reads "By the Final Fantasy XV team", also in those two languages.
Cute.*yeah, stupid annoying lights are my photos' trademark.
...And then there's this crap. The plastic overlay's writing doesn't match up with what's written on the steelbook.

MemberThe Vita version of God Eater 2: Rage Burst (+ Resurrection, because it's a bundle, here in Europe) is on sale for 20 bucks at Gamestop, only for today.
I've been craving for a Vita game, but Sony doesn't even want to discount anything for it this Christmas, so that's pretty much my only option.
Though, I usually hate Monster Hunter and its clones, and this one is dangerously close to the source material. I'll download the Japanese demo on PS4 (again) and see.But of course, my mother doesn't want me to buy something else, after all, I just got XV. I'll try to say that it's the first half of her Christmas present for me.

I used my little discount I got for working on Black Friday to get The King of Fighters XIV. I went ahead and threw my 3DS in there, since I hadn't posted a picture yet.
