Post every time you buy/trade something Part VIII

Now that is a bargan! I wouldn't want a PS3 myself but for that price I'd sure buy it.

 

Yep, I already own a Slim, but these things on eBay go for so much it pretty much sealed the deal for me. Also with those games...

 

That Resident Evil Gaiden is minty! Very nice!

 

I am actually surprised at how much Im liking the LotR sets. I really wasn't sure if I wanted them (Walmart didnt have any of the new Star Wars sets), but after building them, they are quite enjoyable.




(Shelob was built too of course, didn't like the pictures I took though )

games for this month
White Knight Chronicles II was 20$ at walmarts

 

never rule out rooting through a box of tangled wires in your local second hand store.

Just found a MK1 megadrive power adapter for £5. Just walking around town and decided to saunter in and have a look around and Bingo! exactly what i been looking for, and a picked up a copy of Fifa 97 for the saturn for 1.50 ( got it because its the one with David Ginola in Newcastle United kit on the front, and im a NUFC Supporter/Fan)

 

OMG. Pretty. You'd best find a box protector for those gems!

Indeed, not that PC boxes today are much better. Diablo III looks rather flimsy to me.

 

i've a load of old big box pc games, they were great but a bit of a pain in the behind storage wise

 

They already are inside plastic boxes to protect them

 

People have probably noticed the recent Steam and Origin summer sales which just passed. Well I bought a good number of things but didn't get around to posting them so here goes:

Origin:

Syndicate

Steam:

Alan Wake
Alan Wake's American Nightmare
Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition
Driver San Francisco
Dungeon Defenders + all DLC
E.Y.E. Divine Cybermancy
Fallout New Vegas + all DLC
Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet
Jade Empire Special Edition
Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands (got platinum on PS3 but I'd like to play it in 1080p etc)
Saints Row the Third all DLC (already had the game)
Shoot Many Robots
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Conviction + DLC
Universe Sandbox
The Witcher Enchanced Edition

My biggest regret is missing out on Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition on both occasions it was 75% off. I actually missed Alan Wake the first time around and was lucky to catch it in the second sale.

I also bought a Microsoft Sidewinder X4 keyboard which is due to arrive sometime between 7am and 9pm today...

 

I was waiting for you to post your Steam purchases for the summer sale
I wanted to take advantage of the Steam sales, but had already spent more than I could afford for the month.

 

not videogame related, but I got a Corgi this weekend and named him Starfox

 

Arrived this morning, such a beautiful statue and glad I pre-ordered it got one

 

Fantastic! He bares an exceptional resemblance to Fox McCloud! I'm sure he and my westie Link would get on together.

 

I got a complete The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past for the SNES.

 

These Arrived today F22 for megadrive with wall poster (reason i bought it) looks cool and has other megadrive games detailed on the back.

Holy shit I've just preordered a game for the first time in several years, nearly a decade - and I'm paying full whack for a change too.

What game could tempt me to do that I hear you say?

Orcs Must Die! 2

The original Orcs Must Die! was pure awesome for single player tower defence so if you ever see it at a good price dont think about it, just buy it, play it, love it then imagine a bunch of new maps and a co-op mode too!

I MUST have it ASAP for the co-op love and fun it will undoubtedly bring!

 

>_>

It's Ein from Cowboy Bepop!

 

I looooooved Orcs Must Die, just wish it had been a bit longer. Did you try the expansion pack? Can't wait for 2

 

I had both of the DLCs so yes, in fact I used the Alchemists Satchel as my main weapon throughout the whole game. I made some mistakes on my upgrade path though which made it a pain to get new skulls to spend. The original Orcs is now in the steam sale @ 75% off. That's £2.24 including both DLCs - http://store.steampowered.com/sub/13743/ I assume other stores for consoles etc may have it on offer too.
