Soul Hackers and Pandora's Tower came in! And in the box of video games they go...

Haha, yeah, I probably won't be playing either of those anytime soon, I'm afraid... Though, isn't your 3DS still out?  You could potentially play Soul Hackers...

Indeed it is! Congrats!

But Action 52 being a crown jewel, ha! It's a cruel joke, really. It's completely insane that it's that expensive now. I had the game when it was brand-new...It was TERRIBLE! I was pissed I spent money on it. I thought I was getting a helluva deal with 52 games on one cart, what a dumb kid I was. Not a single game worth mentioning on that cart. Many were rehashes of another game on the cart, with a new name. And a few didn't even work right, they had game breaking glitches!

Let me know what you think of The Cave!  It's been on sale off and on, and I've been wondering if it's another Trine clone or not.

I'll tell you when my PC stops overheating. ;p

awww

Well I played it for a bit tonight since the weather's pretty good, and um, it plays a lot more like The Lost Vikings than Trine. There's been no combat, just puzzles. I'm enjoying it, but some puzzles are kinda... evil.

I have no delusions that Action 52 is absolutely horrible.  I'll probably pop it in once to sample the atrocities it holds, and then it will go back into my 'rare and valuable' display case.

Ya I opened up Soul Hackers and got about 30 mins into it. But I only have time to play games just before I fall asleep and ended up putting SimCity back in the 3DS, since I can save that at any point in the game. So I can just shut if off when I start getting tired.

[disgaeniac]

Hah - yeah;

I'm planning on/looking forward to getting Soul Hackers more right now, just to pop-in the soundtrack & give it a listen as I'm driving around doing my daily errands/running around

After all...I've heard A LOT of love about the game's music

Chances are just as good that, with my HUGE backlog, that I'll just as likely get to play SMT IV before I do Soul Hackers 

[insektmute]

I haven't had time to listen yet, but the included soundtrack is actually a remixed version of the original. Still gotta track down a standalone copy if you want the OG music

Damn man, your collection is pretty big. You ever take pics of it? Id love to see what all you have!

I gave up on finishing the NES personally. Just cant foresee me paying the stupid amounts of money that some of the horrible rare titles are going for. What 13  are you missing still?
