[quote name='reddjoey']as much as hate to do it, I wiki-ed the OP to see how it goes while I am getting ready for part 1 of summer finals.[/QUOTE]
Do well reddjoey. We understand your priorities, it must be done at this time. Posters here have been pretty good, and I hope the thread OP maintains the level of quality you have preserved for so long.
[quote name='gubmccargen']Thanks for the new wall of text, Crono. I was actually kind of missing them. Like others, I'm struggling with what to do with the OD game sale as I own most of them on-disc for dirt cheap but I am trying to downsize my physical storage of games. Then again I probably could never get $5 for each of them so it seems wrong to spend that on getting them again.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, there are advantages to having media "cloud-based" such as less to worry of physical space ('cus a home move can be stressful), counteracted by some issues with potential changes behind the scenes (availability or content change). Maybe that's why I don't tend to sell away games I have purchased, because I usually buy games which I tend to like and think "I could get more than X dollars worth of fun out this old generally-panned-but-I-like/don't-mind game than the amount I get for selling it at X". Still the situation has its unique solution for every person, just know it's still quite CAG of ya to at least go for it on a sale rather than buying at full ^^.
[quote name='tylerh1701']Apparently they have to celebrate every anniversary, and do it the exact same way. (This year is 21st, I believe)[/QUOTE]
Fun fact, anniversaries are annual ... I think, wait, then maybe it's not a fact if I think it is. I sure celebrate my anniversary of umm, New Years (?) every year. Okay, I'm being stupid, anyway, yep, it is the 21st anniversary for Sonic. I hope I get a M2 emulated (like the SVC games like Alex Kidd, Monster World, and Streets of Rage) version of the Sonic games [well other good old Sega titles first, but eventually Sonic], at a good price. I am already waiting on the already released SVC collections to hit a sale, since 800MSP is a bit much for what I considered "1 outstanding (MW4, Super Shinobi) with 2 filler" packs. I will celebrate Sonic's 21st anniversary by purchasing XBLA Sonic CD at 200MSP, there better be something for the 22nd.
While the heat gets to me along with the lack of sports I watch indicates it is summer, I know I will be paying a non-CAG full price for Dust: An Elysian Tail and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD (provided no day 1 DLC for the latter) during Summer of Arcade. I know there is a 400MSP rebate for buying 3 of the 5 Summer of Arcade games. Without a Kinect, I have only 2 options for a game to be priced 400MSP less, in theory from the rebate, either Deadlight or Hybrid, any suggestions? I haven't caught much hype for either so I am just out of the know.
P.S. I am so envious of you guys winning those contests which gives lots of Microsoft Points. I just fantasize I'd spend the expiring but free-ish MSP on stuff that I know I'd never normally buy but kind of want on the Xbox marketplace like all $100+ of Otomedius Excellent DLC, music pack DLC for games like Ridge Racer 6, costumes for Street Fighters, etc. along with maybe some indie titles ^^. Well, yep, that's a fantasy, aside from the endless girls kind. Yet, I never get that much luck, but I cannot claim they've not given me anything, I've gotten umm, Bing points and rewards points. Speaking of which, bleh to the current 80MSP back for a 240MSP avatar part, I liked it when they gave 80MSP for two 40MSP avatar part offer better ^^.
