I downloaded Crimson Dragon for XBox One the other day. If you like Panzer Dragoon, this would be up your alley.  It's made by the same creator with his new company and it's considered the spiritual successor to the series.
Anyway, I got this free with "Games with Gold".


What really irritates me is that this didn't get a physical release. If it had, it would definitely motivate me more to want an Xbone, but then again it would take WAY more for me to actually take the plunge and buy one.

I really want to play this one. I loved the first one and Orta on XBox. Still haven't played Zwei, yet.

You know how you hear some people trying to push games as artwork? This series is definitely one of those games. Everything is astonishingly beautiful and set to an amazing soundtrack.

Yeah a Physical release would be nice. It's sad when companies don't have the confidence in releasing games like this physically these days and instead would release the same generic military FPS's every year because that's what sells. :P

More like they can't afford to release the game in physical form. :(

At least with digital sales there's no disc production overhead.

Found Digger T. Rock today.  That makes 59 NES games to go.

Super Putty and Blaster Master: Blasting Again where caught too.  All for $10

Then, I was at a thrift store and saw a Power Pad with a $20 price tag.  This is getting out of control.

It's been dry on the game front around here but I actually picked up some physical stuff:


Pong and Centipede (Scholastic releases), brand new for a buck each.

I also got XCom: Enemy Unknown (PC) for free thanks to a promo.

Picked up Armored Core 4 on the PS3 and Wild Arms 4 on the PS2. Down to 6 PS2 games before I'm done with that collection.

Sega Game Gear.... my buddy gave me his old one, and it wasn't working, so I just bought a working online, and will get the other one repaired later..... Came with Ecco the Dolphin and Sonic. (Sat)

Gameboy Advance (Platinum).. My brother's gameboy advance is at my house, but I use to own the platinum one and had to own it again.... Just because... And his doesn't have a battery cover.... So maybe i will sell it later. Since he won't care and doesn't play video games anymore. No games. (Sat)

I have the original gray brick gameboy coming in today, I still actually have a handful of games still for it too. Never sold them.

My friend needs to mail me his sega dreamcast soon too. I think he needs to still test it to see if it works. I told him i'd cover shipping...

After all this, I gotta stop till I find a new job though. I do have an interview next week, and if I get a job, I plan on saving up for a ps4 and some games. After that, maybe the 3ds and Animal Crossing.

I had enough GS discount(s) to pick up a copy of Tales of Xillia 2 for < $20 so, I snatched her up!
