Dragon Age 2

I don't mind the game just that I payed full price for it. Should of waited.

NHL ps2 05/07
I always buy the years NHL game full price and on first day, those 2 years were pure crap.

I used to buy a lot of games used so I don't have to many regrets.

ill have to agree with MvC3 as well. it's not that i absolutely hate it though, and still play it from time to time. the game was made to mainstream and i feel as though it can't compare to MvC 1 or 2. also, im gonna try to not be fanboyish, but they took out a lot of characters that i was really happy with. i felt the game was extreamly striped of features and characters....here's hoping that capcom will actually add characters apposed to just skins....also kinda hoping for a zero skin from the gameboy zero series...that would be sick.

I bought driver 3 for the xbox on launch day for $100 without reading any prerelease press for it, considering how much I loved the first 2 I expected it to be a no brainer that 3 would be amazing. I quickly decided that my $100 was completely wasted, it was a dull glitch fest.

Second one the springs to mind, mgs 4. I love this game but I bought it for $100 and not even a week later the platinum version came out for $50. Just really bad timing.

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.

Halo: Reach

I am a huge Halo fanboy and will defend it to the end. But reach just felt like Halo for the kids who joined the series in the third game. Everything was easier, more random, and just less adult. It's a story of a human planet falling and millions of innocent dieing in a mass genocide. But the single player felt like a linear comic book with a team of action men, rather than humanities last and ultimatly failing chance. I guess its not bad just not worth the £65 i spent on the Limeted edition, and dont get me started on the multiplayer which is a mess of crackpot ideas.

it just doesn't appeal that much to me. i play my Wii more than the 360.... when i got a PS3 i play that even more than the 360 and i don't have that much game for the PS3...yet. the only game i play for the 360 often is NBA2K11 and SSFIIHD :lol:

Is switching the jump/shoot button the only thing wrong with Megaman Anniversary collection for gamecube? I have it for PS2 and haven't found anything wrong with it.

Do you live in Canada or something, because if you don't, you really need to find a better video game store if you're paying $100 for games.

Deathsmiles (360) - for $60

But then again I haven't seen it for sale "used" anywhere yet. So maybe it was a good purchase, and be worth more down the road?
