Journey to the moon is a really good adventure. It's one of the few games that has puzzles that don't feel out of place in my opinion.

I loved both of those games Oto bought. They rely almost solely on inventory puzzles and you may feel a bit like a boy scout when you're done.

For my bf; He's been talking about how much he liked rampage two after playing rampage one on our gametap green account, so I thought he might like this one.. I have to say, running around ruining the US is quite fun, but the 3d world is very hard to manoeuvre in..

No time to play anything at the moment. And I have to finish Mafia and Cave Story (that triple end boss is giving me a lot of trouble) before I start another game.

I bought Anachronox for €9 last year and it was well worth the money. It had those irritating (imho) random encounters common to JRPGs, but the story and humor made me stick by it anyways. Unless you dislike JRPGs, then go for it. Anachronox isn't a JRPG, but it borrows a lot in terms of gameplay from that genre.

Did you hear back from them yet? I was thinking of sending another complaint. I expected them to offer me a discount on my next purchase, or at the least apologize for the mistake, but nothing...

After contacting their complaints line (much better response than the order queries section), I'm in the process of having it sent back to them. Whether they will replace it with the correct edition, however, remains to be seen (and I shall let you know)...

Today I ordered the Police Quest collection. Not the new one. A second hand copy of the second release of the old one. Yay for printed manuals and all the games!

Received this morning
Legend of Zelda: The Phantom Hourglass

Works with the stylus ONLY, including moving Link around. A bit of a pain at times. Still a fun game though.

After over two months of not buying anything, I picked up MDK 2 for only about $4 a couple days ago, then got Super Mario Galaxy yesterday. I plan on using the $25 gift card I got with Galaxy to buy Zack and Wiki next week at Toys 'R' Us' 3 for 2 sale, along with two other games that I'll just sell on ebay to get the total cost for Mario and Zack and Wiki down to about $25. Not too shabby.

Oblivion GOTY Edition
I already had the original game, but not either of the expansions. GAME had this reduced to £20, so I thought I'd treat myself.
