Nice I too took advantage of gamestops 40% off deal

I got

Diablo 3 (really enjoying this game)
Doom 3 HD
Skyrim (gave my original copy to my friend but then I downloaded the DLC for $5 each and realized I needed it again)
007 Quantum of Solace (it was $1.88 after the discount, can't be that bad)
Fallout New Vegas Ultimate edition PS3 (I have the regular copy and the DLC on XBox but having the DLC on disc is worth it
Red Faction Guerilla (Mark from Classic Game Room love this game and it was $2)
Darkest of Days (really cool concept of going back to the civil war with future weapons, I actually day dreamed about this as a kid haha)

so 7 games I have been meaning to play for $78

and the weekend before it was a buy 2 get 1 free so I got

Zone of the enders HD
Final Fantasy X-2
Metal Gear Rising

Unfortunately they had a good idea and then were unable to flesh it out as much as it probably should have been so it ends up being kind of lackluster. I played all the way through my PC copy and I suppose I got the enjoyment out of the $5 I paid for it new. Just don't expect a masterpiece so you're able to enjoy what they did do.

Some ebay pickups. Crying aka Biohazard Battle looked interesting but this game is quite difficult. I also thought the cover and label look neat.

Technocop came with a Genesis lot I got and it seems to be an quite uncommon game.

That is one of the most violent games on the Genesis (which is saying something). I hope you enjoy it!

I find this game CIB at a lot of places for around <$5. It makes me angry every time I come across it because it's worthless and a bad game.

Game hunting tends to make you angry it seems. :P

What's the point of storytelling without hyperbole?

Yep!

http://www.ign.com/articles/2008/11/14/ ... cop-review

"Techno Cop somersaults over gaps in the floor while filling thugs and hoodlums with bullets. Those bullets must have explosive tips, because after two to the chest, bodies just explode. They explode so violently that eyes pop out of the sides of the criminal's head as the mess crumples to the ground. Really, it looks like you just gunned down a citizen of Innsmouth."

Enjoy!

Yeah I saw it on one of Mark's Classic Game Room reviews and thats basically what he said, but after the 40% off it ended up being about $9 so I think it's has to be worth that for it's interesting concept. Watch this game end up being some rare expensive cult classic game in 20 years :lol:

If a classic game isn't "cult status" now, I doubt it will be in 30 years when we are old and gray :D
