Luftwaffles Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 I hear it's really bad, but as a fan of the first one I figure I should try it. The price in the Amazon Summer Sale sweetened the deal a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalCaveman Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 Wait, are those games really $249 and $129?! That's in MXN (Peso) in dollars it would be about $9 and $18. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thursday Next Posted July 2, 2012 Report Share Posted July 2, 2012 I hear it's really bad, but as a fan of the first one I figure I should try it. The price in the Amazon Summer Sale sweetened the deal a bit. I've not heard many (if any) people describe it as "bad" let alone "really bad". The metacritic is in the mid seventies on PS3 and Xbox. Not sure if a bad port is the reason for a high sixty score on PC. But nothing there suggests a "really bad" game. Most criticism comes from it being Not Syndicate Enough. Personally, I think it is challenging (for a modern FPS) has a an interesting tweak in the form of breaching. The style is reminiscent of Blade Runner / Deus Ex. It's a pretty enough game. Story is a bit all over the place but overall it's an enjoyable experience. I'd be interested to hear what you thought of it given that you went in with fairly low expectations. I picked up Unit 13 at the weekend. Finding it quite enjoyable. It's definitely made for portables. All the missions are fairly bite sized and there is no narrative. But the controls and what not are all tight. I'm liking it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toxicitizen Posted July 5, 2012 Report Share Posted July 5, 2012 Digital copy from Blizzard's store. I originally wanted a boxed copy but at the last minute I realized I would very likely get charged insane brokerage fees by whichever carrier they used to ship internationally (I hate UPS so goddamned much). Which sucks since lately I've been kind of itching to get back into WoW and both Wrath of the Lich King and Cataclysm are on sale for 10 bucks each on there. But I don't want to get those digitally so I'll just have to shop around, I guess. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCP Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 I got a 50 dollar Future Shop gift card for my birthday last week, so I picked up a copy of Dragon's Dogma. Now just wait, it will drop in price next week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excel_excel Posted July 6, 2012 Report Share Posted July 6, 2012 (edited) Ordered Final Fantasy Theatrhythm on Shopto.co.uk. Loved the demo and the positive reviews coming out have cemented my decision to buy it. Within 6 minutes my order had been processed along with a picture of the package. Holy shiz, impressive. ALSO BOUGHT ON XBLA!!! SPELUNKY!!! Edited July 7, 2012 by excel_excel 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faiblesse Des Sens Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 You buy those cards? Do you get them for cheaper than face value like you can with XBL point cards and subscriptions? I've always just used my debit card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercurial Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 You can get them for 19.99. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always just used my debit card. No, they cost exactly what it says on the front. They hardly if ever go on sale. I think there was a 10% off at ToysRUs a few months back, but thats about it. I normally use my card too, but I had GS credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCP Posted July 8, 2012 Report Share Posted July 8, 2012 It's a totally nice day outside, I want to finish MGS3, but I don't want to stay inside, so, being the sucker that I am, I just double dipped and bought the Vita HD collection. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eleven Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 I'm actually not planning to play it until I get some of my backlog cleared out in Shameless Gaming Month.

MetalCaveman Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 I had $10 left from the last time I bought something on PSN so I decided to get this, I don't know when I'll start playing it though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted July 10, 2012 Report Share Posted July 10, 2012 Preordered these: I actually already preorded AC3 on PS3 to lock in the steelbook, but I'll probably end up cancelling that order depending on how long the PC version is delayed. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thursday Next Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 KZ3 is fun with the Sharpshooter if you own it (or if you borrowed it, legal ownership of the Sharpshooter is not part of the fun). Very much looking forward to Darksiders 2 and AC:L, however, I'll be getting AC:L via download. Still struggling to get into AC:R so AC3 is a wait and see title for me.

TheMightyEthan Posted July 12, 2012 Report Share Posted July 12, 2012 From what I've read AC:B and AC:R were developed by a side team, and AC3 has been in development by the main team since AC2 released, so I don't think it will suffer the same problems as AC:R. I do own a Sharpshooter, and am quite looking forward to using it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
