Final Total:

Final update for the year. Paper Mario was bought on launch day, Tactics Ogre was a second hand pickup. The 3 Wii games, White 2 and 3 3DS games were Christmas and Birthday presents, and the 3 download titles I picked up with some birthday money. This years total comes up slightly higher than last years £450.78, but as that didn't include consoles and this year's does, I actually spent far less (I bought a 3DS last year). This year I acquired a total of 90 games, compared to last years 101.

Re: Games Acquired 2012
A while back I played Elements of Destruction on the PC. The DS version will probably be MUCH better. I'm saying it's a good game, but as a portable title it's more well-suited.BurningDoom wrote:Today I got:

Re: Games Acquired 2012
I remember everyone thought it was going to be real rare and expensive, and then it got a big reprint. It was nice seeing the price gougers being suddenly deflated.BoneSnapDeez wrote:Radiant Historia is boss.

Re: Games Acquired 2012
Same thing happened with Dragon Quest V. I saw the price drop from $110 to $40 within a 24 hour period. Gougers got owned. It was awesome.
EDIT: Even with the reprint, Radiant Historia is climbing back up in price.
