My shopping spree, a grand total of £77.

Junkface · 07-31-2006, 05:30 AM

At the Platinum version price, though I guess the standard version must be widely available in the US, what with Amazon still having it in stock... Still, the PAL version has a better, if slightly more "extreme", cover:

Never saw this thread... My acquisitions over the last couple of months have been:

Not all were purchases though. I couldn't find a pic for Monet Mystery of the Orangery.

RLacey · 07-31-2006, 02:20 PM

Serious Sam II for the princely sum of £2.99.

My hunt for DS games continues, this time it involves importing:

Also

This game is getting harder to find, at least in Europe, also had to get it before Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin arrives.

And finally a Steam purchase:

Of course I don't own the box, that's really the only problem with Steam...

Wrestle Kingdom for the PS2 (Japan only)

AND

Another Japanese wrestling title by Squaresoft.

I actually don't care for pro wrestling, but I have a real thing for Japanese wrestling games. Yep. They're good.

Excellent choice for gaming Krid!

KriD · 08-02-2006, 02:13 PM

Why, thank you, Kolzig.

I'm enjoying it.

Kolzig · 08-03-2006, 07:00 AM

I finally got it today:

Holy crap, the new brightness settings make the games look so good! The richness of the colors is unbelievable.

And I really love the GBA Micro style buttons and d-pad.

RLacey · 08-06-2006, 08:13 AM

Rainbow Six: Lockdown

It cost me £2. I'm a sucker for ultra-cheap games in shops.

Very good purchase, is this the one that includes Fallout: Tactics. Cauze i never could like that game. The 3 levels i played where like one big turndbase fighting scene. Fallout 1 and especially 2 rock my world though

My copy just arrived in the mail. I couldn't get it to run on XP until I installed a No-CD patch, which you'll have to download from one of those naughty websites. I won't post a link, as it'll just be taken down - a google search will come up with something pretty quickly though.

A quick search of the Technical Help forum turned up a bunch of threads on the issue, and the No-CD patch seems to be the only way to get it to run on XP.
