Wanna know if I made good purchases!

Post by CDink »

Today I returned Valkyria Chronicles and got money for the old Flea Market this weekend...but while I was at gamestop I bought Future Tactics: The Uprising for $2.69 and Gungrave Overdose for $3.59...did I do well or are they not worth it, I had never heard of them.

Only problem is both cases were immaculate I even got those annoying stickers off..but the gungrave had a security strip...ON THE PLASTIC...and I tried to take it off as easy as I could and absolutely destroyed the plastic...so now I have to go buy a cheap PS2 game just for a box!!!Anyone know an easier way to get those?

Don't take it the wrong way, but I think you might have made a bad move. Sega just announced there releasing DLC for Valkyria Chronicles. Not to mention I'm hearing its harder and harder to find Valkyria Chronicles in stores due to a lower than normal print run. If your looking for a good, cheap strategy game you can't go wrong with Front Mission 4. And it can be had for less than $4.00!

Yeah I know..just it's not what i'm looking for atm, VC I mean. I can totally see myself enjoying it..just the one thing that made it "unique" I didn't like at all and thats the whole control your character part...I prefer it when i just tell them where to move and they do it...but thats just me.
