Damnit, that 360 GS coupon is up and I'm banned from buying more games aside from the two I already paid for.

Though I cheated and bought two games that were ~$10. :oops:
 
[quote name='tiredfornow']You're banned from buying games? What happened? :([/quote]Lady friend said no more games/no more wasting money.

So I had to hide the two PS3 games and new headset I bought. :p
Now I'm gonna have to hide Left 4 Dead and the many other 360 games I've been anxious to get. :cool:

EDIT: She actually likes L4D so she may let me slide if I let her play with me, even though she SUCKS. (sorry)
 
Ugh. You need a new lady friend. Or none at all. An old World of Warcraft saying springs to mind,

"Girlfriends come and go, epics are soulbound."

I love my wife, but she's not going to tell me what to do with MY money. Just like I don't tell her what to do with hers.

Hehe, it's just her looking out for me as my laziness and waste ends up costing me even more money in the long run.

Like my not paying a speeding ticket (my first ever ticket and the cop is a liar), or buying new tires that I need.
Basically, she wants me to take care of that stuff first, and she's right. Then videogames/music/electronics second.
Damn tires just cost $600 though. I bought the rear two already, now to match the front two.
 
Play SFII?

I played some recently with my friend who came over.
Man, I felt like I was back in elementary school and I was on my SNES.
Didn't feel like that when I played online. Felt... cold.
 
The last few nights I've been playing God Hand and Valkyria Chronicles. Both are pretty good games. I totally screwed up a mission on VC last night and I was like 'screw this' and turned it off, because it didn't clearly mention how the heck I'm supposed to do a certain thing in order to get my guys through the battlefield. I hate it when games tell you you're supposed to do something but don't tell you how to do it.

As for God Hand, I'm playing it on "Easy", and I'm finding it to be hard as hell. I'm getting my ass kicked in this game, but yet I still find it very enjoyable. I'm though Stage 6 now, and supposedly the last 2 Stages are hard as hell. I do say "Easy" though because it doesn't seem that way at all.
 
It looks like Atlus will be bringing over the new Devil Summoner game sometime soon. I just got and email from Atlus that just had a picture with what looks like a shadow of Jackfrost dressed as Raidou Kuzunoha(The main character) cast over a pentagram.
 
[quote name='Dr Mario Kart']I dont come 'round those parts often. Maybe it'll be 4 by then instead of 2.[/quote]
I'll have to rent it then. I doubt I'll buy it anytime soon.
 
[quote name='MarkMan']It'll be the same as playing vs the CPU on easy and disabling the CPU's attack buttons. No need to get together online for that guys ;)[/QUOTE]I such at it, but I don't really care. ;) I just play for fun.
 
[quote name='The Mana Knight']I such at it, but I don't really care. ;) I just play for fun.[/quote]

Technically, you "suck" at it. ;)

But yes, having fun is all that really matters. :)
 
[quote name='js1']Badass! Is it going to come out here this year?[/quote]

Sega hasn't announced a release outside of Japan yet, but I expect they will. If we're lucky, it might be out by the holidays of this year.
 
[quote name='odintal']http://www.destructoid.com/angry-ba...ans-for-a-us-release-of-yakuza-3-118978.phtml
:bomb:[/quote]

Yeah, the title just hasn't sold well in North America, despite critical praise. I blame the mis-steps taken with Yakuza 1. Sega spent too much money on celebrity voice actors and made the mistake of trying sell the game based on that alone. That might have done irreparable damage considering it gave the game a B-list vibe. Not to mention, there's quite a bit of cultural stuff that might inherently turn off the mainstream audience.

I'm still hopeful that the game will see light of day here, but I think Sega should just skip Kenzan and just go for broke with 3.

Then again, I may just say fuck it, and just import the damn thing next month. >_
 
What I don't get is why companies like Sega expect a game like Yakuza to sell well. I liked the games, but they had to know that the mainstream wasn't going to buy it.
 
I just started playing Spider-man web of shadows the other day.

WoW. i had heard the VA for Spider-man was bad but sweet jesus my ears want to run away.

I dunno if they necessarily expected "mainstream" appeal, but I think they could have done better in getting the game to sell to more people than it actually did.

I'm glad they did try to bring it here, though--at least we got Yakuza 2!

There's still a chance that 3 will come over, as slim as those chances are.
 
[quote name='jerk-off #2']Are you good at any games, Mana?[/QUOTE]I'm good (but not the greatest) at R2 co-op. I'm good at Warhawk Deathmatches, SingStar, DDR, Ridge Racer, Mega Man X games, etc.

I am more of a casual gamer compared to most though.

Or are you really RegalSin trying to throw us all off? :whistle2:k

Actually, I'm DennisDFat, level 80 super troll. My weaknesses are Krispy Kreme doughnuts, Double Quarter Pounders with cheese, Died Cherry Vanilla Dr. Pepper, and Jergens lotion.
