Shovel Knight is amazing.

Titanfall is a lot better than I expected.

Obsidian need to hire better playtesters.

The music from Unreal Tournament is godlike.

That's been my weekend.

Wow, Sonic Lost World is far better than I was expecting. I mean, I was expecting a trainwreck, but this is about as good as Sonic Colors. So, it's pretty great! Not as good as Generations, but still much better than most Sonic games.

It's a really fun game but the level design goes completely south in the latter half.

Really, just play the first half of the game over and over again and pretend that it's actually very good. :P

The Deus Ex composer I'm pretty sure. Godly stuff. I wish the MOD format lasted longer than it did.

I don't know maybe it me but all day I was on genesis and nes. Decided to play some 360 and first had to update and update and update.
Second was playing street fighter 4 ultra turbo hardcore edition 3.0 and could not get back into that. So I tried the MVC 3 ultimate jam edition and was bored in minutes. Maybe I'm just not into current gaming anymore. Give me a Genesis or anything 16 bit or under and I'm happy

So lately i have been buying more games than the last 3 years of my life combined... i even got a few N64 games that i consider just ok because the were super cheap and now im thinking on gettin all the star wars games on the N64 despite i don't like stars wars... i even have various games on my shelf just for the sake of having them and i don't mind!

OMG... im becoming a collector :shock: is this what happens when you have expendable income?

Short answer, yes.

I have the same problem but I still play a lot of games. I have just come to accept that I also enjoy buying/hunting/collecting games.

MFW I'm playing the iOS version of Sonic 2 and fall down what used to be an instakill pit in Mystic Cave Zone and then suddenly I'm playing a completed version of a level that was removed from the original game.

Yes, get it under control while you still can. Make a gaming budget and be religious about it, or you're doomed. :twisted:

Your spending is like a goldfish; it will grow to match the size of its container (budget). When you suddenly get more income you're best off putting ALL of that into long term savings/retirement planning. If you never see the additional funds then you won't spend them.
