GameStop is having a buy two get one free deal so I decided to stop in and see if there was anything that interested me.

The Saboteur - This is one that interested me when it first came out but I just held off getting. So today I finally bought it pre-owned for $16.19

Enslaved: Odyssey to the West - Another one that I was interested in when it came out. I played the demo and it seemed all right. Got this one for $11.69

And my free game was Guitar Hero Rocks the '80s for PS2. Normally it would be $5.99. So this brings my GH collection up to four games now: GH 1, 2, 3 and the '80s. I was hoping I could have got another PS3 game instead but, alas, there was a pretty crap selection of games or either they were still too high for what I wanted to pay for them so my next choice was PS2 which I still play occasionally (mostly for GH). I'm still rockin' with the original guitar as well; the one that was the first released with GH1. I see no point in "upgrading" since you don't play these games for the graphics anyway.

In other gaming news I'm playing Yakuza 4 sporadically. It's pretty good if a bit sluggish at times with the dialog. It's really annoying to go from spoken dialog to written text and then back to spoken in the same "scene" sometimes. The voice acting is superb and I'm really glad they kept the Japanese vocals in tact. Gameplay-wise it's a bit easy. I just entered the second chapter with Saejima; finished the first chapter with Akiyama who is my favorite so far. At times it can get a bit overwhelming just because there is SO much to do outside of the main storyline that it makes your head spin. I still haven't scratched the surface as far as extracurricular activities in the game since I'm kind of more interested in the story right now. Maybe after I beat the game I'll play through again and do all the non-essential activities.
