The Impossible Shopping List

Oct 25, 2006 00:04

Man. Today I decided to make a list of all the games (and game systems) I need to buy between now and Dec. 31, and the results are -not- pretty. Between PS3 and Wii and everything else, this is easily going to be the most expensive holiday season ever ( Read more... )

okay, I just noticed you have Bokura no Taiyou DS on your original list. That's just sick.

I agree with Xian, only I'd also cut out Gunpey and Motor Storm.

And if you haven't played MGS3 you have NO fucking business buying MGS Portable Ops. Puhfuckinglease.

Hey, I worked on Boktai! Of course I want to play the finished game! :) But to be honest, I may just wait for the US version at this point. I don't think I'd get to it before January anyway.

I did a little bit of work on MPO, too, so I'm already familiar with the plot. :p I really want to play it, though, and I also want to feel like my PSP is actually worth a damn. It's got an inch-thick layer of dust on it right now...

Damn, I didn't realize when reading the original list that there were THREE Tales games on it. And Tales of the Abyss just came out too--granted, that was here and your three are JP releases, but still... No wonder I don't like those games if they're able to make four or five of them a year. :P

Just curious but... cerune October 25 2006, 04:43:47 UTC

Are those X-Box games region locked or do you have 2 Xboxs? If not, couldn't you just go with one version of PSU?

If you do go Culdcept Saga, we'll have to hook up some time to play it! I'm probably picking up a JP 360 just for this and PSU probably >:D

Not sure on the region locking. I don't actually have my own Japanese X360 but I need to get one for the office, so I'm planning to play Culdcept and Blue Dragon there. The US PSU just arrived today, actually, but I'm not planning to pick up the JP release. One is enough. :)

Even if you have the scrip for all that ROMmage, do you have the time to play them?

Excellent question. The answer? Not at all.

(And I don't have the $$$, either.) :)
