Unless it's branded Madden, Halo, CoD, God of War, etc. They don't know wtf you're talking about.

I must have lucked up because my local GS is nothing like that (I even got a free art book to go with my copy of Atelier Meruru!) although I have experienced that at other GS stores so I understand where you're coming from. Do all the GS stores in your area suck?

The GS the next town over used to be great and I ended up becoming friends with a lot of the dudes that worked there (Matt included). But, I rarely go there anymore, since most of the guys I know that did work there have moved on. The one by my house is a hole in the wall little shop with barely enough room for people to walk around and the selection is usually pretty terrible. I got tired of going there because I was constantly getting bothered about pre-orders/subs. There are 2 more nearby, but I've never been in the one and the other one is a decent size store, but again I've rarely found anything worth driving there for.

I'm pretty much over GS. Especially when you go there to buy a New game and it's been cracked open and gutted. The last straw for me was buying a new copy of Knights in the Nightmare and realizing when I got home that the manual was missing. If it had been sealed, that wouldn't have been an issue at all.

The Gamestop in my local area is staffed by morons. I ask about stuff in stock and they say they don't have any, WITHOUT EVEN CHECKING. Freakin' morons.

...

I found this game yesterday. It cost me about $2.50. I wasn't planning on buying it... even the seller thought it was something else...

Edit: DO NOT GOOGLE ANY INFORMATION FOR THIS GAME IT HAS LOTS OF STUFF YOU SHOULDN'T BE SEEING ESPECIALLY YOU HTIMREIMER

I also traded for a couple of PC games: El Matador (DEA agent goes hunting for drug lords) and Hellforces (crazy scientist creates a power source that runs on human souls - demons then enter the bodies and stuff.)

Got Shining Force 3 Premium Disc in the post, looking forward to mucking around with the extra battles again

1).  Ocarina of Time 3D (C.I.B.),

If you have not played Ocarina of Time before, prepare yourself for an awesome game!

I was road tripping for work today so I stopped by a couple of game stores.

Kabuki Quantum Fighter NES $3
King's Knight NES $3
Quick Shot NES joystick Boxed $5
Army Men: Air Combat N64 $5
Jet Grind Radio DC $5

Nothing too special, but it was decent prices.

I have not played it before, and I'm *definitely* looking forward to playing it on the XL's (90% bigger) screens!

Not only that -but- I've been hearing & reading that if you're gonna' be playing it for the 1st time...that *This* is the version to play...

Would you agree w/ that?

I'm not sure. I played the game to death on the N64 and loved every minute of it. I also have it on my 3DS and thought it was great. I think the main reason they are saying it's "the" version to play has more to do with the update graphics than anything.

[disgaeniac]

So...basically everything's the exact same - just prettier?

Also, how well/poorly is the 3D used in the game?

[scott]

Well they added the Master Quest version of the game as a bonus. But they took out the Stone of Agony, because the rumble feature isn't available and put in a replacement item that is supposed to do the same idea. As far as I could tell the dungeon layouts and everything are the same and the quests, etc are the same which I like. Basically the 3DS version, as far as I can tell, is just a graphically overhauled update of the original. Of course, that's what I like about it, because they didn't dick around with the layouts/gameplay. Of course, they did make it so you can aim your slingshot/bow/hookshot and 1st Person view by moving the 3DS around (but I still just normal aim, cause I'm not a fan of gyro controls).

As for the 3D, it is very well done. I can play that game in 3D for hours on end and rarely switch it off.

I have not played the 3DS one, but if I had spent the hours I played on OoT on other games... I would not have a backlog
