I just bought Liberation Maiden and Crimson Shroud on sale for 50% of each. Both are games I wanted when the Guild01 series was first announced and even though I won't be getting to them anytime soon (currently playing through Radiant Historia and have Paper Mario Sticker Star after that) I had to take advantage of this deal.

I bought the three games as well. Haven't played those two, but Areo Porter is pretty fun so far.

James was ragging on Aero Porter on the latest RFN, but for $3 it sounds quirky enough to give it a shot. It's good to hear that you are enjoying it as I may take the plunge soon.

Etrian Odyssey IV and I'm still waiting for it to arrive. (2 weeks by today)

And here it is:

Liberation Maiden on sale was tempting, and I um... er... needed a way to test that my new credit card was working. Yeah, that's why I bought it.

Let me know what you think of it. I have already picked up Crimson Shroud because it was on sale and was tempted to buy Liberation Maiden also, but I just wasn't sure. I could still be tempted though.

AnGer · « **Reply #780 on:** April 23, 2013, 08:44:54 AM »

I think of Liberation Maiden as a nice game. It's short and a tad bit repetitive though, but I don't care coz it's got Anime High School Presidents in Bodysuits piloting Mechs.

Anime High School Presidents in Bodysuits piloting Mechs, you say? $:-\$

hmm...that does sound appealing.

I think that alone is worth $4.99, but that's just me

White supremacy version PS3

hahaha. I like it so far. I didn't want the God of War one because I've never played the games and don't want to risk hating them and regretting it and so far, I like PS Plus.

I also regret not getting Walking Dead while it was on sale for $10.49 the first week I got it but I was broke. I may have to jump on the Resident Evil ones now though. My wishlist for games is so huge right now.

Anyone else looking forward to summer so they can have more time to play games? I'm graduating junior college this semester and can't wait to just having work to worry about. Well, that and moving out of my house. Haha.

Congrats on graduating. Here's hoping you get in as much gaming as you'd like.

I created a thread a few weeks back about the dilemma of playing games in Summer. For me, I find it very difficult to sit in doors and play games when the weather is nice, which for me and where I'm located only really applies to around 2 or 3 months a year. With such a limited window, I feel like I need to be outside as much as possible during summer. My gaming, therefore, actually tends to drop off in the months June - August.

Dow Jones · « **Reply #785 on:** April 24, 2013, 12:01:58 AM »

The weather here is really bipolar and gets really nice, snows in summer, or gets to 70 degrees in winter so I get a bit of everything. I'm hoping I can enjoy all the games on my backlog and jump into new ones as they release so I can try and stay up to date. Hahaha. I feel like all my gaming is either retro stuff or a few weeks late and people spoil them for me.

I'll be buying Mega Man 4 on the 3DS Virtual Console. My favorite Mega Man game is finally in portable form with save states!

ejamer · « **Reply #787 on:** May 03, 2013, 07:20:14 AM »

Hooray for doing your tax return and finding out that you are getting money back, instead of owing money like you expected. To celebrate, purchased the following 3DS games:

* Marvel Pinball 3D ($4 on eShop) - Loved Zen Pinball 3D, and it's easily one of my most-played portable games. The tables here didn't impress me as much in the demo... but for $4 I'm excited to play more pinball on the go.
* Steel Diver ($3 used from GameStop) - A launch game that was interesting and had a nice little 2-player mode, but just wasn't worth launch prices.
* PilotWings Resort ($3 used from GameStop) - Another title that is interesting, but just not worth the initial asking price for me. Don't expect to get a lot of play from this title... it will probably be a gift for my nephew who just purchased a 3DS.

Just received my copy of Castlevania legacy of darkness, got it on ebay for 15 bucks.

ejamer · « **Reply #789 on:** May 03, 2013, 03:38:09 PM »

So is eShop having unannounced sales? I saw that some digital games had price drops recently (Code of Princess), but just today I was checking out the eShop and noticed there is also at lesat one game on sale that wasn't advertised.

Rising Board 3D - $1.49

Supposedly not a great game, but I don't think there is anything cheaper on the eShop and NWR gave a positive review:

I'll buy just because I loved Pop Island so much.

Picked up Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. Everything I've heard so far is true; this game is ridiculous! The intro section is pure genius.

Halbred · « **Reply #791 on:** May 03, 2013, 09:20:38 PM »

Mega Man 4, Liberation Maiden, and Injustice. Great games, all three, although I wish Liberation Maiden had a lefty option.

RarityGamer · « **Reply #792 on:** May 04, 2013, 12:39:08 PM »

Lost Horizon. Great game so far. The art style is really interesting too.

Tomb Raider: Really like it so far it's like Uncharted meets Assassins Creed Revelations and a Survival horror game all in one. I highly recommend it to anyone on who's on the fence and it's $40 new at Gamestop till May 8th.

Pixelated Pixies · « **Reply #794 on:** May 04, 2013, 08:40:57 PM »

I decided to buy Liberation Maiden while it's still on offer. It's unlikely I'll be able to play it any time soon though. I've still got to finish Fire Emblem: Awakening, The Walking Dead, Thomas was Alone and I've yet to begin playing Terraria, Crimson Shroud, Shinobi (3DS), and Resonance.

I'm not used to having a backlog. It's kind of frightening!

AnGer · « **Reply #795 on:** May 06, 2013, 11:47:02 AM »

I bought Luigi's Mansion 2 today, because playing only RPGs is kind of one-sided.

UncleBob · « **Reply #796 on:** May 19, 2013, 11:12:47 AM »

Super Mario Kart (SNES) - $3.
Dr. Mario/Tetris (SNES) - $3.
Game Cube Controller - $2.
Pokemon Ranger (complete) - $10
Nintendogs Best Friends Edition (second release, complete) - More than I should have paid.
Rebel Strike 2 (GCN - Disk only, now paired with RS3 in a dual case) - $3.
60 coupons for 2 free ounces of Frozen Yogurt - Free.
12 cups of Bronco Berry Sauce - Free.

Yesterday was a great day!

My mom gave me a $50 gift card so instead of using it on groceries or something productive I spent it (and some trade credit for old Xbox games my brother had) on Pandora's Tower. There's $16.xx left.

Where do you find stuff this cheap? Goodwill?

* PilotWings Resort ($3 used from GameStop)

Why don't the US GameStops match up with Canada?! This game is $12.99 here!

Retro City Rampage. Was waiting to pick it up in Wii Mode when I got my Wii U, but I caved and got it during a Steam sale. Having fun so far.

I'm pretty much holding off on purchases until I can get an external hard drive for my games on PC and get a 3DS XL. I mainly want the hard drive for the games in the LA Game Space bundle that are coming.
