Was just looking over the last few pages and found it kind of interesting that (unless I'm missing something) nobody seems to have bought any games in February that actually came out in February. Guess it hasn't really been particularly spectacular month though. Or maybe that cheap games thread is rubbing off on people.

I just bought (all new) Cursed Mountain for Wii, Blue Dragon for 360 and Animal Kororo for DS for £20 total. It was from a website I've never used before so I hope they actually turn up. Fingers crossed everyone!

Yeah I saw you n Dex had picked that up. My Community tab wanted me to be well aware that day :P

Well I'm glad then so you can see how all awesome we are :D

 

Ordered two gems on the cheap which is great from Zavvi

Annnnnd....

Bah! Now I've to add Hyperdimension Neptunia to the list. I was going to cancel my preorder today and wait for a pricedrop but the rotten £%&%^(*%$ pretty much charged me and shipped the game already. Which is insane because the game is only out officially next Friday in this country.

 

Hmm now I'm going to have to sit out on some game next month... The next two months are going to be expensive anyways business-wise.

 

Edit: Extremely extremely surprised about my shopto delivery which was sent at 4pm and I got it this morning? I mean seriously WTF, Royal Mail are never that efficient.

Good pick with Cursed Mountain. Its atmosphere is very well-done.

Just went and pre-ordered this on Steam

I was already planning on pre-ordering Portal 2 (me and a friend are splitting a 2-pack so it's only going to cost us 40 bucks each), but then I realized that my monthly budget allowed me a second pre-order.

 

It was either Crysis 2 or Dragon Age II. DAII obviously has more content but in the end I decided against it because I have a thing where I stop playing RPGs after about 40 hours and only get back to them months later, and I'm already trying to get back to Fallout: New Vegas, so it seemed ridiculous to buy another epic-length RPG when I've already got one waiting to be finished.

 

Plus, I absolutely loved the original Crysis (and Warhead) and have been looking forward to Crysis 2 a whole lot more than I have been for DAII.

Also, the Crysis 2 trailers have been increasingly awesome lately.

Well I'm totally loaded up on strategy for a long time now. I still haven't played AOE3 since I got it for $1 and now I just bought:

The Empire and Napoleon total pack is only $9.65 (£6) right now so I couldn't say no to that. Amazing deal.

Just sent in a Steam support ticket asking them to cancel my pre-order.

 

I tried the MP demo and while it's not terrible... a lot of it just feels wrong.

For starters, when you launch it and arrive at the title screen, you are told to "Press Start".

So much for PC being the lead platform and not a console port, uh?

 

Then the graphical settings are just retarded. You have "Gamer", "Advanced" and "Hardcore" with no freaking indication of which is higher or lower. And no way whatsoever to customize the settings. It's one of those three and nothing in-between. In addition, there's no way to adjust your FOV and the controls in general feel sluggish and slow. Not very PC-like, which is weird considering Crytek was one of the most PC-friendly devs (along with Valve) only a few years back.

 

Then there's how the maps in the demo are such small, confined affairs. Compared to the original games more sprawling environments filled with vehicles, you have to wonder how much they changed their design philosophy. Basically the whole thing feels like it was changed to cater to the Call of Duty crowd.

 

I'm still very much looking forward to playing the single-player, and for all I know the SP campaign might be more in-line with how the original games were. But the demo made me realize that I'm not willing to bet 60$ of my limited budget on whether or not Crytek changed their design philosophy completely. Plus, the demo is obviously a quick and dirty console port, which makes it look like Crytek lied when they claimed the game was not going to be a console port.

 

So yeah, now I have 60 bucks that I can spend on something else. I'm thinking maybe MvC3, but I'm not 100% sold on it yet.

That's what I've been saying the past few weeks!

Don't forget I've had the Crysis 2 leak for a while.

Was just reading all your stuff and nodding to myself :P

Ha, must've missed it. I don't think I've read much of the Crysis 2 thread, now that I think about it :lol:

 

I considered getting the leak but I figured I'd rather experience the proper final version.

So basically the settings are the same for the full (as in, single-player as well) product?

Yeah, definitely glad I cancelled my pre-order, then.

 

As things are right now, I'll probably download the game to play the single-player once and then buy it much later when it goes dirt cheap on Steam. Definitely doesn't feel like Crytek deserve my money on this one.

I finally got The World Ends With You. I've been looking for an unused copy on and off since it came out without success. I was quite excited thinking I was getting a new UK copy (which are rarer than hens teeth). When it arrived though it was a US copy. Stupid website lied to me but at least I finally have it now.
