Shiny Hologram Cover

PS2 Ultimate Spiderman Limited Edition - $6.99 FREE
http://www.gamestop.com/ps2/games/ultim ... -man/38732
YES! I finally got this, only missing the outer Venom slip cover. But the beautiful red and purple hologram cover insert is intact! Got this game on the way to San Francisco, at a Shopping Mall in the middle of nowhere. At that same oasis I picked up Silent Hill 3 with the 2nd disc music CD, pic posted a few Replies ago. Spiderman was buried in the Gamestop disc drawer for a while, still had a yellow sticker on the other side. Gee, hiding in that drawer no wonder it was waiting for me. :D

Having played the Dreamcast versions of Spiderman with great graphics, I was skeptical about the Cel animation this one is reviewed to have. Very impressive, so much better then that DC skating graffiti game. Spidey is right out of the comic book. Speaking of comics, intermissions are handled by comic frames. This is so much more alive then Comix Zone, the comic frames are full of animation that jumps out at you. I though Kim Possible could jump, Spidey wins easily here. Love "Flying" thru the city web slinging.

LE Features
Character Bios all presented comic book style with music. The best LE feature is an exclusive video interview from Stan Lee. He talks about how Spiderman was created, why he used a teenager as the alter ego, even how well Spidey works as an idea video game with the web sling travels, great historic info on a great comic. The LE bonus comic was also intac, still looking crisp. 8)

Gamecube Chibi Robo - $9.99 FREE
http://www.gamestop.com/gc/games/chibi-robo/42375
I try to limit Gamecube purchases to exclusives. If PS2 has the same game, it wins me over due to HDAdvance. This game starts out slow, so much dialog <click> to read <click> just let me <click> play the <click> stupid robot already! At least an easy game save by finding a wall outlet. I already started cleaning some sludge off the carpet, a take on Mario Sunshine. Initial exploration and viewing the map, this could be an interesting game, given some time. Chibi Robo themed Nintendo Power subscription offer included.

Gamecube Pikmin - $9.99
http://www.gamestop.com/gc/games/pikmin-used/19028
I just bough Pikmin 2 a few days prior, loved it! Had to get the first one to see the roots of the game. Nice that there is more exploring to discover the Pikmin stuck in the ground. I can see this "lemmings" game getting a lot of play time as I'm installing games in the PS2 hard drive. Pikmin themed Nintendo Power subscription offer included.

CRT, Chibi-Robo is an awesome game. To put it in perspective, it's one of only three non-Nintendo published games that I've ever bought on Day 1.
Gaming accomplishments:
Nibbler (marathon): 251,169,160 / Nibbler (one life): 5,263,360 (WR)
Donkey Kong: 423,100 [L12-1] (150th place as of 2019-01-15)
Super Smash Bros. (N64): Ranked top 5 in Wisconsin from Q1 2016 to Q2 2017
Shrek SuperSlam: won largest tournament in game's history (Shrekfest 2018)

I only buy games I know I want to play...

Although, it appears that CRT has gone crazy during the B2G2 sale. :lol:
