Games Acquired 2014

[Jagosaurus]

Okay, I tracked money in, money out (including shipping fees, ebay seller fees as well). I am going to end up with the 17 games below and 1 manual for an uncommon game.... for only $33 out of pocket! Heck ya!

I really wanted to amp up my PS2 library while they're still cheap. Still on the look out for a lot of PS2 titles but this lot really helps my want list. I've owned and beaten several on this list in the past lol, regretted selling them off. Keeping them this round!

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon (DS)

[BrokenGeode]

First game of the year. Kind of fits the overall frantic and stressful year of my final GCSEs.

[Fragems]

Picked up CIB copies of Yakuza and Yakuza 2.

Yakuza was listed as good but the Amazon seller had multiple copies and couldn't guarantee a manual would be included, but at $10 shipped i took the risk. Was happy to find it was in like new condition CIB when it arrived .

Yakuza 2 was a ebay pick up. Guy was selling multiple copies as well for $22 shipped and he only had 1 left. It was complete but very scratched up. However after a resurfacing it looks great.

Now all I need is Dead Souls and Yakuza 4 to complete the collection. Going to wait till i run through the other games before picking them up though.

I ordered two more in the mail today, should be here by Thursday.






Finally gonna try my hand with the Monster Hunter series for the first time. Chose to do it the most financially safe way possible, lol. Also I already own Darksiders 2 since it looks like a much more fun game than the first. But when I found out that the story is actually very much connected I figured now I have to go play the first game first.

[BoneSnapDeez]

Those Darksiders games look cool. May pick them both up eventually - I'd like to get part II on the Wii U. Of course, I'd need a Wii U first.

Retro game compilations are my new obsession. The other day I snagged Atari Anthology, Midway Arcade Treasures, and Dreamcast Collection.

I also received Rocksmith 2014 Edition in the mail today. Unfortunately, it seems as if I'll need some extra equipment to get it all up and running properly, as there is audio lag if you simply use an HDMI cable. Balls.

Uh-oh...There are a ton of them out there. I have a "collection of collections", and some retro compilations can be amazingly difficult to track down.

[AppleQueso]

I've contemplated trying to hunt down all of those HD compilations on PS3, would that could as "retro compilations?"

Not yet...but, that said, I am doing the same thing. (I am even trying to get all of the seventh generation collections such as the Infamous Collection, Killzone Trilogy, etc.)

EDIT: I am skipping the God of War Saga, however, because the PSP games included in that set are digital only and because it is significantly less expensive to buy God of War III, God of War Collection, and God of War Origins Collection separately. (I will be buying Metal Gear Solid 4 and the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection rather than Metal Gear Solid Legacy Collection for the same reasons.)
