I picked up Rebuild 3 for mobile other day. I've played Rebuild and quite enjoyed it. I think I got it free on Amazon or in a HIB. It was a nifty little city builder, though slightly basic and this horrible clash of art style. Sort of a cartoony city n characters, and really gritty drawings for the zombie attacks.

Rebuild 3 has the art style all nailed down and centralised. It's a bit more story driven of sorts too (in so far as there's less survivors, so they have backstories which expand upon as you level up, which is a new thing for them with picking perks and such). I like that survivors have requirements before joining, and sometimes little stories like being ill (do you take the risk?) or hating each other (which one do you want, oh fine the other guy will make their own faction).

Really good upgrade, I'm happy with the cost (which given I used Google Reward money was free).

On GOG since I want to build that library. Hilariously bad voice acting but from what I've seen and played, the gameplay is absolutely tight. Yes, the game does looks like a Sonic clone but i think it iterates on it really well which is not something you can say about what SEGA has done.

I know right! I borrow a friends Link and Samus amiibos to scan into Mario Maker so I could use their costumes and was thoroughly unimpressed with the designs, but 8 bit Mario looks pretty cool.  
 

 

I went full nerd and bought myself my first amiibo:

HOW COULD I NOT?!?!? LOOK HOW COOL IT IS. LOOK!!! LOOOOOOOOOK!!!!!!

 

Where did you even find it?  I haven't seen that one anywhere.

 

Amazon.ca had them for a few minutes, I guess. I just happened to go on and look, saw it for 15 dollars, and purchased. I went back an hour later and it was sold out.

What I didn't buy today was a £200 PS4. They'd left out the "take to the till" DVD cases so was pretty excited but when I got to the till they said they didn't have any left. Pretty annoying stuff. Unless I see another offer that good it's back to waiting for the slim to rear it's hopefully-not-ugly head.

I managed to snag this bad boy for myself by sheer dumb luck while I was out shopping earlier.  I also picked up Zero Suit Samus for a friend. They also had the retro 3-pack but the only one of those I would really want is R.O.B. and I don't think they sell him separately so eh, whatever.

I finally bought Majora's Mask for 3DS. After missing the £19.99 offer I saw and royally pissing myself off as it was my fault I missed it I finally found an offer that was complicated but good. Was almost tempted to buy a New 3DS XL to go with it but I have a feeling 3DS is not long for this world and do not want to hear about it's successor hot on the heals of me buying it.

I've been rewatching the AVGN eps from the start lately and as a result I felt like finally giving the game a shot. I knew it went on sale fairly regularly so I checked Steam on a whim and, sure enough, 60% off. I've only managed to beat one level so far but I can already tell it's going to be a weird one.

 

It seems like a pretty decent side-scrolling platformer. I mean, at the very least it's competently designed. But it's also intentionally going for that "Bullshit!" kind of old-school difficulty AVGN always rants about, with stuff like obnoxious enemy placement and flight patterns, disappearing platforms and whatnot. That seems like a pretty delicate balance to maintain, so it'll be interesting to see if the entire game pulls it off as well as the first level did.
