What Modern Games have you bought lately?

[Jet Set Radio Future]

@ Chocklo have you played the Williams Pinball game i grabbed it for the 360 about a week ago in my opinions it's brilliant.

[totalgridlock]

Just some Nintendo stuff from the past week or so.



Metroid and Cursed Mountain were £3 apiece from a charity shop, Muramasa was a tenner in HMV, Fragile Dreams came new from Play and Kingdom Hearts was new in Tesco for £12.

Stopped off at the White Rose (Leeds) on my way back home today. Decided to check in to Game to use up some more of my credit. I was surprised at how many decent games I managed to find.

Anyways, ramping up on my DS collecting now....

Not had a go of it yet, but I'm hoping to have a crack at it this weekend. I hear good things about it and I have fond memories of the Funhouse machine so I'm dying to give it a whirl.

Dark Edition of Witcher 2 from Amazon.de + Game Guide. This will be my next 360 project.

A few modern pickups over the last month or so





Viewtiful Joe is fantastic and I'm thoroughly enjoying Okamiden. Shinobi is great fun too. I was also quite surprised at how fun SSX is, although short and I'm not really a fan of the multiplayer, but it works well. Duke Nukem is pants.

Yet more DS - I don't think this current phase is going to end any time soon!
Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games
Professor Layton and Pandora's Box

[chocklo]

Looks like a few of us have picked up Okamiden recently - I thought I'd join the club as well

I went to Morrisons after work today to see if if there were any budget Nintendo points but it looks like it was a regional thing only. Gunstar, you lucky so and so!

All was not a loss though. I managed to pick up some shower gel for a quid, loads of teabags for £2 and best of all, Asura's Wrath for £17. I've been wanting to give this a go for a while but I didn't fancy the £39 proce tag that it's been at for some time now. Bonus!

[chocklo]

More lovely ds games - yum yum!

It's The World Ends With You. Can be difficult to get hold of these days. It seems to have a decent fanbase but I found it to be a bit too stylised. I may try and give it another go....

I can see three games there I've been after a long long time!

Well done on grabbing those

[totalgridlock]

My brother works for Blizzard, which means I get occasional free goodies. Like this, which turned up via courier the other day:





Only been waiting for this game since 2001...

[chocklo]

A few more DS games for the collection - shaping up nicely now.

Was really surprised to see Apollo Justice for £8 at HMV (as opposed to £39.99). That's another sensibly priced used title that I've seen at HMV bringing the grand total to 5.

[maD_mAN1983]

nice lot there, seeing some titles i have on my to get list

Got a few Wii games this week. Picked up Mr Bean's Wii game thing from cash converters for £7. Wouldn't be my first choice but CEX are selling the things for £18 so there must be some demand for them, so got it while it was there. Got a couple of Avatar games from CEX for £3 a piece (Avatar as in the bald-headed kid with the arrow tattoo, not the blue people).

Also picked up Silent Hill: Shattered Memories for £13 from Grainger (the orangeness, it burns). For some weird reason I keep forgetting about 'real' games that are Wii exclusives. I can just about juggle 170 Xbox games in my head and buy different ones for the collection, despite having played all of 10 of them, yet can't remember a handful of Wii games which I'm equally interested in picking up. Anyways, got SH and picked up Case Closed and Sakura Wars a few weeks ago, so one less to double in price further down the line.

What the heck chocklo, you must be spending about 500 quid per week at the current pace

I had some catching up to do.

I promise you, that's it for this week now!

Received a German/Italian import of Dokapon Kingdom for the Wii today. Yet another Wii game I'd totally forgot about, was only reminded of it because of GregPandemic's sale thread (sorry Greg, feels a bit crap picking up info when you've had to sell off lots of your games). I'd rather have had a UK copy but it there doesn't seem to be any around and it's doubtful that's going to change, so anything I can play is a good thing, only £18 new as well so I'm happy.
