Giga Wing (Dreamcast)

LOVING this game. Frantic, old skool and a brilliant repel system. Can't wait to get hold of the sequel at some stage.

MotoGP 07 (PC)

I bought MotoGP 2 a while back, and that was fun enough, but this is living. Needs patience, does have some sound issues, and the character models during the cut scenes do look a bit dated, but this game still rules.

well I didn't just get it but I have yet to play Bioshock for my 360 as it is currently in the possession of my dad, or Lost Planet (nephews playing) or finish Assassins Creed (ny own lazy butt fault) and the list goes on. so while not new new, in the sense that I just bought, but they are new to me cause I have yet to play them.

I have just bought the adventure game *Agon 4-The Lost Sword of Toledo* after playing the demo for this game.

I then searched for a way for us Europeans to get the first 3 games legally. And here is what I found:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Agon-The-Mys...8732917&sr=1-2

This is the first three Agon games rolled into one package. As you can this game is NOT available before
JUNE 27 2008

Oh, and btw, I also bought Bioshock and the LEGO STAR WARS games...

From the few seconds of Bioshock I have played it is great. And I love my Lego Star Wars, I can't wait for the Batman and Indiana Jones versions to come out.

I believe you can get Agon: The Mysterious Codex (the first 3 episodes)from Interactcd.com or download it from AdventureShop, which I did :)

I just bought The Sims 2 Kitchen & Bath Interior Design Stuff pack. Other than my much loved adventure game collection I own just about every sim game out there. :)

I just got:

Runaway 2: Dream of the Turtle - $5

and

Psychonauts - $5

Next on the list to get is Runaway 1 and a week or two to actually play the things.

Yes, thank you much for this info.

However, I once ordered some games (Syberia II and some of the Myst games) from gamestop.com. I ended up paying twice the amount or 2.5 times the original price that I had paid for the game since shipping from US to Denmark will have you pay both for shipping, customs and sales VAT tax + added freight rate(s) from the Danish National Postal Service.

The point is that even if the game only would be about 190 Danish Crowns,
I easily end up paying about 249 Danish Crowns or even 299 Danish Crowns.
(about 50-60 US dollars with the current exchange rate)

Also, I don't have much money right now, so it fits me just fine that the game's UK version isn't out untill June 2008.

This is said in no disrespect you, misslilo, but I just thought I would explain why I don't order the game from interactcd.com. As for the downloadable version, I sure like my game boxes :)

Is that the xbox version?

Shiny 04-23-2008 05:28 PM

These just in:

Assassin’s Creed
Syberia
Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core
Final Fantasy III

I was debating whether or not to pick-up Syberia but reviews for it around here seem to be favorable, so I'm giving it a try.

I understand perfectly, and I'm sorry you had that experience with them.

However, I just ordered Overclocked $29.95 + Keepsake used $5 = $34.95 from InteractCD.
With shipping for two games $17 it totals $51.95 = 245.95 DKK.
(Checked my bank account, and that's what it said.)

I don't think that's bad for a brand new game and a used one :)

I think it depends on how they ship it.
If they ship as a package, it's more of a risk to be seen by the "bad" guys, lol

I have always gotten my games through the letterbox, so no extra customs or VAT or anything on it.

Just a note to that.
I sometimes after having bought downloadable games, find the boxed versions later on WAY cheap on softxchange.dk, so I have double :D

Today Obsidian arrived in my mailbox! :)

Finally got around to buy Psyconauts, but whats the deal with the 5 CD's?
I suppose I shouldn't complain though, 'cause I assume thats the reason behind the sexy box.

Lately I've been backing up some of my favourite games... just in case. ;)

I bought a shiny new copy of GK3 from GamePlanet. I've played through my '99 copy many a time, but it's good to know that I've got another in case something happened to the original.

Whatever system, it's criminal at that price!

Just bought...

Got this on import as I'm not sure if it's being released in the UK/ Europe.

Not yet played as I left my DS at work-- DOH!

misslilo 05-12-2008 04:42 AM

Was in serious need of a game fix, so I just bought and downloaded 4 Nancy Drew Games! :D

* Secret of Shadow Ranch
* Danger by Design
* Creature of Kapu Cave
* Danger on Deception Island


Played 3 of them already and last one is downloading right now.
