True dat! Although I rarely spend $50 on a game. (Tomorrow I may, just may pick up a copy of Silent Hill fpr PSX...what do you guys think? Probably be $20 ... is it worth it?)

Silent Hill 1 & 2 are both great survival horror games. I feel they are way more scary and creepy than the Resident Evil series, though they are also more difficult.

Draysoth · 12-05-2002, 03:27 PM

Zelda for GBA... before that, Phantasy Star Collection for GBA...

Good good times for GBA...!

IKEA_boy · 12-05-2002, 06:04 PM

During my (unsucessfull) quest to find Silent Hill I picked up Warcraft II: Battle.net Edition (and expansion pack) [PC] for $10... and some mini crullers.

godmoney · 12-05-2002, 09:31 PM

Picked up MechAssault used and it great condition for $35.00. Good deal.

MooglePorn · 12-05-2002, 10:11 PM

Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past... went to Wal-Mart for it last night at 1AM and they didn't have it... didn't even have the Metroids yet

Had to get it at the mall today...

Ispep Aloc · 12-05-2002, 10:21 PM

Last one I picked up was GTA Vice City. Probably getting my Xbox by end of the year

IKEA_boy · 12-07-2002, 03:29 AM

Shenmue 2 for my birthday (tomorrow).

Haven't played yet but I have the DVD in right now. (Which looks much better than people made it out to be.)

Lastblade · 12-07-2002, 01:39 PM

Steel Battalion and the xbox

godmoney · 12-08-2002, 05:46 AM

I picked up Robotech: Battlecry on XBOX for $25 today. Damn, I can get Xbox games for a lot less than my gamecube...

Either way, Robotech is a great game...I'm a fan of the series so it's waaay cool piloting Veritech ships.

Squall · 12-08-2002, 08:10 PM

It hasn't arrived yet, but I ordered the Arc the Lad collection from EBGames, who are selling it for $49.99, the lowest price I've seen. I also ordered the Contra/Castlevania collection, which doesn't seem to be offered by anyone else.

MooglePorn · 12-08-2002, 08:47 PM

Contra/Castlevania Collection?????!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!

*Runs off salivating*

EDIT: It's for PC??? Why the hell not on PSX or PS2??? Dammit!

godmoney · 12-10-2002, 04:17 AM

If you don't have Xbox Live and Unreal Championship, nows the time to get it! I got a compusa gift card today from a relative, so I headed over to pick up Live. To my surprise, Unreal was $30.00 when you bought Live, so I got both for the sweet price of $34.00. The deals good until Dec. 14.

Nothing beats that! I've been playing MechAssault with a bunch of cool people, I can't wait for the next live night!

IKEA_boy · 12-12-2002, 08:32 PM

Loaded (PSX) Greatest Hits Used for $6. I wanted the long-box version but this opportunity presented itself first.

Squall · 12-12-2002, 08:42 PM

I recently bought the Civ III and Tropico expansions, but those are Christmas presents for someone else.

My Castlevania/Contra collection arrived. The neat thing is that its box is meant to look like the boxes that NES games came in (though it is a tad bigger).

Travis Bickle · 12-14-2002, 05:31 PM

I was out doing my Christmas shopping yesterday and finally picked up NHL 2K3 for the XBox.

MoonSka0 · 12-15-2002, 09:48 PM

Picked up NFL2K3 for under $30. Since I generally suck at sports games, anybody who wants to play and get what is most likely an easy win PM me

.

godmoney · 12-16-2002, 03:10 AM

got Spinter Cell and the Xbox Demo disc for Xmas gifts from friends. YEAH!

Let me know how hard a time you have starting around the CIA mission... scary hard...

I got 007: Nightfire which is a fucking good game...

Prospero · 12-16-2002, 04:47 AM

I just got Heroes of Might and Magic IV as an early Christmas present to myself. Even if you've played Heroes I, II, and III, there's still a pretty steep learning curve--it comes with a 120-page manual that you've pretty much got to read before you can play, because a lot of rules have been changed and added since Heroes III. Some of the 40+ scenarios apparently take about ten hours each. Now that's hardcore gaming.

spot778 · 12-16-2002, 07:11 PM

NHL 2K3
Timesplitters 2

Both a heck of a lot of fun, playing with bud over the weekend ROCKED, played NHL till 2:00am.

Bladerunner · 12-16-2002, 07:17 PM

Mortal Kombat (XBOX)...and it's the only thing I've been playing this past week.

IKEA_boy · 12-19-2002, 11:11 PM

Grand Theft Auto 2 (DC) [new -- $8]
Animal Crossing e-Cards [6 packs at $3 each]
Amped (Xbox) [used -- $4]
Frequency (PS2) [used -- $5]

IKEA_boy · 12-20-2002, 11:45 PM

Wave Race 64 (N64) - $6
Super Smash TV (SNES) - $2.50

IKEA_boy · 12-25-2002, 06:58 AM

For Christmas from my girlfriend:
Contra: Shattered Soldiers (PS2)
GBA e-Reader w/ DK Jr.
Two PS2 memory cards.

Bladerunner · 12-26-2002, 08:30 PM

My most recent purchase for myself was Mortal Kombat for the XBOX.

**SilentBob** · 12-27-2002, 06:05 AM

Just bought Metroid Prime yesturday. Too bad i have been working and not having any chance to play the game yet.

IKEA_boy · 12-27-2002, 06:40 AM

A PS2. Yup. Mmmm-hmmm.

lopper · 12-28-2002, 01:57 AM

I bought Dead to Rights for the Game Cube on Tuesday. It's pretty cool.

The disarms are bad ass, but the game's been made so easy for GC and PS2 that you rarely need to use them. You won't find yourself hurting for ammo much. Most of the time I'll just holster my guns and disarm a room full of guys if there's an extra armor laying around.

I'm thinking of getting Serious Sam for Xbox or Animal Crossing for GC this weekend. Serious Sam looks like it would get old very quickly and Animal Crossing looks to be a pretty tedious experience, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do.

godmoney · 12-28-2002, 06:23 AM

Game-wise I've picked up Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Minority Report: Everybody Runs. Both are pretty kickass games that I got for good prices.

MooglePorn · 12-29-2002, 08:43 AM

I got Timesplitters 2 for $39.99 new, been waiting foir a price drop on it...

The game is excellent too, all around a perfect FPS really. I actually enjoy it more than Halo, and there's a lot more to it than Nightfire. All FPS fans need it, for sure.

I heard M.R. Blows goats.

Enzian · 12-29-2002, 09:47 AM

MR Blow owns goats? Did they keep you up last night?

Any relation to Joe S. Pack?

I am Sofa King. We/Todd did.

No idea what any of that meant...BUT

Minority Report is really fun, but it's sensless violence and it does a really bad job of carrying a story. The graphics aren't amazing, either; but sometimes I just need a game where I can check my brain at the door and have fun...and that's what this does.

If you like that style game, you should probably snag New Legends and Serious Sam for XBOX, too.

IKEA_boy · 12-30-2002, 05:30 AM

Got NBA Street (PS2) and Pikmin (GCN) as Christmas presents. (late but still xmas)
Bought Sims Deluxe Edition for PC.

Sycowulf · 12-31-2002, 02:41 AM

In the past week ive gotten Xbox Live!, NHL2k3, Mechassault, Ghost Recon, The Two Towers, and Resident Evil 0.... Time to slow down a bit for a week or two lol

MoonSka0 · 12-31-2002, 04:59 AM

Just ordered Shenmue II from the Xbox Retail site (one of the very few perks I get for working in retail) for $8 bucks new.

godmoney · 01-01-2003, 07:02 AM

Picked up The Two Towers for XBOX today. Friggin' awesome! My friend and I are playing now!
