New Acquisitions, Volume 7

I had a pretty big day today. I got Uncharted: Drake's Fortune for the PS3 (New-$59.99), Devil May Cry 4 for PS3 (New-$59.99), Unreal Tournament 3 for PS3 (New-$59.99), Turok for the 360 (New-$59.99), and King of Fighters XI for the PS2 (New-$15.00). In some non game-related news, I also got Arrested Development: Season 2 and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, both on DVD. I guess I'll have some stuff to keep me busy over Spring Break!afjkidd5

I have all of those except for KOF and I have DMC4 on 360. They are all great buys.

-Rock Band (Xbox 360) new/sealed...the usual $180 or so.

I've played four songs and I'm in love already. I will say this though...I've played the drums (quite well actually) in the past...these drums are way different. I find myself messing up my fills badly and smacking the rims of the pads themselves. The bass pedal is a problem becaue I don't really have anything to sit on that's high enough to let me hit the kick comfortably. Still love it though. Haven't tried anything else yet.

I passed up Viva Pinata in the funky packaging new for $20...bad move?

I gave Rock Band my 2007 game of the year, and for the spacific reason that it is addicting and is by far the best party game ever made. I'm sure you'll continue to love it for a long time to come.

- Ghost Squad (Wii)

- Lost Odyssey (X360)

- Patapon (PSP)

- Unreal Tournament III (PS3)

- Vagrant Story (PS)

Good buys. Lost Odyssey, UT3 and Ghost Squad I already have. I really want to get Patapon, because I really liked the demo.

killer haul! BAT for the GB is so great... check out my review of it when you get the chance. it's one of my older... sucky reviews but the content is solid...

I've only played the demo but that was enjoyable. I'm not expecting too much, just kinda light-hearted action adventure stuff. I have a soft spot for movie-games so it was a forgone conclusion that I would get it.

Tetris DS 29.99 new

Dragon Quest Heroes Rocket Slime DS 13.50 used

The game itself as horrid as some would lead you to believe, but the friend AI is. They'll just stand there like morons as you fight wave after wave of enemies. With that said it's worth playing for the easy points if you can find a cheap copy and are a fan of the series.

Well, I will be returning my copy of Turning Point today because it doesn't work right. I will also be trading in Metal Gear Solid 2 and 3: Subsistance because I will be getting the Collection which includes 1, 2: Substance and 3: Subsistance in a couple weeks. I will replace Turning Point with Frontlines: Fuel of War because that looks like fun. I am keeping the Red Box and the Bonus Disc from the limited edition though...BigC43

I refuse to pay more to get online with a game. Thats like paying for the game and then paying AGAIN to get more game that I should already be entitled to.

you are paying for the internet right? and you payed for your computer? same thing. also, you payed for your car... and you still have to pay for gas... same thing...

I get that you're very opinionated. I will agree with you to a point though... if all I was doing was paying to play 1 game online... I wouldn't see the point and the game would have to offer something amazing... for instance, I'd probably have payed to keep Steel Battalion online... but XBL is a service first... the online play of EVERY game available is a bonus. where I draw the line is doubble-paying. MMORPGS on consoles tend to demand that... FFXI, PSO, EQ, ect. but seriously... you aren't paying to play any one game... you are paying for a service. much like you buying a computer then paying to put it online. PSN may be free but it's hardly offering a service... same with Wii... though Wii offers something more resembling the internet... but since Dreamcast did that first... meh...

I probably shouldn't respond, because I don't want to continue this off topic conversation and get the topic locked but anyways...

Still hsouldn't have to pay for it, especially when a lot of it can be paid for advertising. There are plenty of non-intrusive ways to throw an advert at a gamer without runing the game, such as a scroll bar in the lobby or a refreshing electronic billboard during the loading & online initializing screens. And stuff like PSN is free and does exactly what I want it to, gets me online and playing my games, no questions asked. I can get onto EA Sports titles with just my EA account on silver. And all the play-through is fine. It's just MS trying to squeeze even more out of the consumer and I won't pay for it.
