New Acquisitions, Volume 3

This is going to sound odd, but I've been looking for a good bowling game lately. Let us know what you think about Ten Pin.CodingGenius

It is a great game in my honest opinion, I had or rented the game when it was new. Now the rest of this is based off of memory considering I've not had a chance to play it since I picked it up: Easy controls and game play with hilarious sound affects if you do the right thing.

A friend wanted to get rid of some games so I snagged a couple of sweet deals.

Command & Conquer - N64, cart only

Star Wars Episode 1 Racer - N64, cart only

Banjo Kazooie - N64, complete mint (double)

Super Smash Bros - N64, complete mint

F-Zero X - N64, complete mint

Ebgames/Gamestop is having a buy 2 get 1 free sale on Xbox games right now. It is going to las about a month. If you have one of their game cards you will save an additional 10% on top of that.toppsseller

Tron 2.0 Killer App (GBA) $14.88
GAMECAMILLER

Tron on the GBA?  I didn't know.  Looked into it and I want this now.  Thanks GC. :)

Arcade Unplugged (360) for $22.23 used, practically in brand new condition.
GAMECAMILLER

I'm so glad they're publishing the XBL games on discs... if I ever get a 360 this is how I'll be getting these games as I'm not really keen on the whole digital distribution thing.  For demos and such its great, but as far as "patching" console games and microtransactions and the like I fear there is too much opportunity to abuse the customer.

Nice job GC!

I knew they made tron for GBA, but this was long apo. First time I've ever seen an actual copy. :)

On a side note, I'm totally in love with the remote. The way I have my Xbox 360, tv, and computer interconnected, this is the perfect tool to tie them all together via one remote. It makes things so much easier and quicker to access for video, Music, DVD, and content.

Made my way back to Ebgames for some more Xbox junk.

I have an update about the sale.  In Game informer this month there is a 10% off coupon which you can combine with the Gamers Edge Card.  So you will save 20% in addition to the Buy 2 get 1 free sale.

Picked up an extra set of Donkey Kong Bongo's for $4.99

Cold War Xbox $6.29

Went to EB to get some XB games, seemed to be the thing to do.
Evil Dead: A Fist Full of Broomstick $5.39
Outrun 2 Free!
PSI-Ops: The Mind Gamegame Conpiracy $5.39
Red Ninja: End of Honor $7.19
Raze's Hell Free!
Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball $11.69 (I know own a game I am ashamed of, but it seemed like an XB collection would not be complete without a DOA entry).

Also got:
Tales of Legendia for the PS2 for $22.49

This now makes the XB my dominant system once again with 114 games.  (PS2 has 110).

Hey, I wouldn't mind owning a copy of DOA:XBV, and I really want Psi-Ops.  Unfortunately for me, I have to drive 45 miles to find my nearest EB...sigh.

Just me and my old, sway-backed donkey named Clyde.  Sometimes we don't get very far before he decides he doesn't want to go anymore.

Wow... I live within 20 minutes of at least 10 EB/GameStops.

Good job on DoAX. It may be cheesy, but it's an exclusive that the console is known for.

Just spent part of my lunch break at one of the local GameStops and picked up the following used games:
XBox:
Still Life - disc only - $11.69
The Warriors - complete - $8.09
PSI-Ops - complete - FREE
PS2:
God of War - disc/case - $16.19
Total: $38.85

I just really want to replay GoW, and haven't had it since I traded it in for $35. ;) I'll pick up a mint copy later, when they get down to less than $10.

I just really want to replay [God of War]CodingGenius

I don't know why, but despite all the positive buzz about this game, I never had any interest in it at all.  I think perhaps I just can't relate to the main character enough. 

BUT ... after watching Brian Ekberg fight against the Colossus of Rhodes in the GoW2 demo, I am now completely sold on wanting to buy the sequel.  That just looked way awesome.  And I just can't bring myself to buy a sequel without having the original (if it's so cheap and readily available everywhere), so I guess I have to go buy God of War now.  :P

I'd strongly encourage you to get it.  I am not a fan of the action genre, but this game surpasses typical categorization.  I'd put it in the top 5 games of the last generation easily.

I was into the original because of...Linda Hunt. The woman who narrates it. I figured if she attached herself to it, it must be good. Stupid reason, but after picking it up I had never enjoyed such a visceral experience!CodingGenius

There were two copies of MvC 2 on Xbox at the store, but one was disc-only and the other had a damaged insert and no manual, so I passed.

I never see 1. or 2. around here.
