If you had $200 that you could only spend on games for the rest of the year, which games that are scheduled to come out before 2010 would you buy? This is assuming you have the ability to play any game (meaning don't spend the money on upgrading computer hardware or getting yourself an xbox live gold membership). Also, use the price that the game is going for on most retailers, as opposed to the cheapest price you can find the game for. If you can't find a price, take a reasonable guess. I would buy: Scribblenauts $30 The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks $35 Dragon Quest IX $35 Borderlands PC $50 Batman: Arkham Asylum PC $50 How about you?

That's an entertaining concept. >___>

  • Modern Warfare 2 - $60
  • Halo 3: ODST - $60
  • LoZ: Spirit Tracks - $30
  • 13 more months of XBL - $45

And that's about 25% of what I want this year.

Save it to buy freaking textbooks for school. ...Which equates to enough for like... 2 textbooks lol.

...Joking aside, I'm probably not buying any over this fall/winter season. I'll probably pick up Uncharted 2 sooner or later and probably Dissidia, but if I get a ton of games, I'm gonna fail out of school or something.

Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for my Dreamcast

Street Fighter 4, and an arcade stick for my computer.

That's roughly $200 I think.

I'd buy Alpha Protocol and Dragon Age day one, full retail price. Umm, I pretty much only play RPGs and fighters so the rest of the year is slim pickings for me. All the other games that I would buy with that money already came out: Prototype, Star Ocean 4 and BlazBlue.
