How do you add a game? Maybe someone could do this for me? Seems on Game Boy Color, "Test Drive Cycles" isn't there when I went to add it to my collection.

And y'all have me interested in Symphony of the Night 2. I never played the first one, but I'm interested.

 

I've probably played, maybe at most, one of the Castlevania games on the NES lol That's certainly a big franchise I've never touched.  Did try the demo's for the more recent Lord of Shadow games, but man those aren't good lol

Just saw Godzilla in theater and it was super awesome.  They did the big Zilla pretty well.

Brutal Legend 2

There would be nothing more wonderful than that to me...Oh it must be made. 5 of them.  they need to make 5 more of those games!

Less fantasy dreamy, I'm really excited to hear more on Zelda for the Wii U, both the Hyrule Warriors and the main release.  Arkham Knight would be another cause I really want to see Batmobile gameplay.  Far Cry 4 was announced today, so I want to see the new setting for that and while DICE/EA are frustrating things now, I'm extremely interested to see Star Wars Battlefront 3.

Only got the Halo 3 ODST Strategy Guide for 2 bucks today at the thrift store.  Nothing new put out game wise really, but hoping for something Saturday as I make my big thrift shop gauntlet run.

Finally found out when the close thrift store gets its new stock in as they are one of the bigger ones that get shipments in I believe rather than taking in the usual donations, so I managed to get a couple PS1 games, a PC game, and after I decided to make a second round of the store just to double check, I was heading to the counter and they were putting out a Game Boy Color with some games for only 10 bucks! I needed one for my collection.  It's a tad beat up on the corners and pretty well used, but it works just fine.  It's this one with Pikachu and Pichu on it.

picked this up for the wife. its about time she learnt to play the guitar she got.

Takes a little getting use to, but it's not bad. Might even work better for someone starting out.  I actually want to get it and a bass so I can give bass a go lol

Announcing Fatal Frame for western release on the Wii U, showing off how you can use the camera with the gamepad would be awesome.  That  should be quite enticing to the horror crowd I think.

All those damn Kinect games

What surprises me about a lot of those, is how many of them simply don't work.  The functionality just isn't there.  It works from what I hear for stuff like Dance Central, and some minigame stuff, but overall it's a disaster of a experience in any sort of REAL game.  How does anyone look at Steel Battalion and go "Well, this seems like something I can sell for money."

I just found Conker: Live and Reloaded for $5! Someone traded in a pristine Xbox collection, and one of good taste I must add, into a local pawn.

Lucky! Been really wanting that since the N64 conker is so much more expensive to get.

I didn't realize the 64 one was now the most expensive N64 game. The was excited to find the Xbox version because this one is going up in price too.

It's not the most expensive one, I think a couple others beat that out like Clayfighters 631/2 Sculptors Edition, but it's a pricey game for sure averaging like 75 to 100 I believe for a CIB version.

And today, I managed to get back a copy of Splatterhouse on Xbox 360.  I do really like this game, a shame it did poorly, it really needed a sequel to clean up the game.

That seems like a pretty good definition of shovel-ware really.  Movie Tie-Ins definitely seem to be the biggest issues with this.  Battleship, Expendables, that Amazing Spiderman 2 game more recently, games that very obviously didn't look like they had a lot of real effort put into them and were most likely rushed to market.

After getting absolutely frustrated by Trials Fusions with it's last maps, I went and bought Trials Evolution and am now back to generally enjoying the games lol It's some good fun with some nice challenge to it and I feel I like it more than Fusions.  Maybe it's the style, I kinda hate all the slick future stuff of that game, Evolutions is more dirty, it's lots of junk and it seems like there is more wildness put into it, more of a rock vibe.  Both are pretty solid, but like the last area or two, not including the Extreme maps, in Fusions are infuriating more than they are fun and I don't enjoy that.  I haven't wanted to snap a controller more than I have with that game lol
