More games for my collection!

Not that I'm broke right now or anything, but I am trying to save for a trip to somewhere (not sure where yet) this summer and I also have got to pay my taxes. This time of the year is good for me, we have a lot of festivals happening (French Quarter Fest, Creole Tomato Fest, Jazz Fest, ect.) so I'm getting a lot of hours and sales are kicking ass, so I got some money to burn. So I went to Gamestop with the possible purchase of Bioshock Infinate on my mind. Instead of dropping $60 on Bioshock, I spent 25 and left with a brand spankin new copy of Nier, and a used copy of 3-Dot Heroes, and a copy of Dragon Quest Rocket Slime.

Rocket Slime was for my friends kid so I can get MY copy back, and so we can have tank battles (win win!). Heard a lot about Nier so I decided it was time to take the dive. And 3-Dot just looks cool and I'm down with the whole retro thing. I want to wait and let the hype simmer down on Bioshock, plus I just have a hard time dropping $60 on a single game. So yeah two more games to add to the backlog, nevermind that I've been sitting on the copy of Eternal Sonata I got from Gamefly for over a week now. I really need that hyperbolic time chamber. In the mean time got to try and finish Mass Effect 3 so I can jump back into Borderlands 2 next week. Are my priorities screwed or what? lol! Laters ya'll!

Neir is a kick butt game some people may argue that, but I really enjoyed the little time I spent with it. I say that cause last year I traded a ton of 360 games, to buy new releases and I regret trading my copy of Neir and my copy of Venettica, but this year im turning over a new leaf, no trading my games, but Neir is a good choice.

There are a lot of games I have stupidly parted with over the years I wish I still had. Some of which have become extremely rare and expensive. So I know what you mean.

With all the positive nods to this game I'm glad I finaly got it.

Again: Nier. Worth the price for the soundtrack alone (and the game is great too).

A good soundtrack makes this all the more appealling.

Nier is one I'll be looking for next week in Indiana. Been saving my money for the trip...and to game shop! Always fun to try new stores in an unfamiliar city.

I still have not got around to trying it out but everyone tells me it is a real gem. Its always cool to go to new places, travel bug is in my blood.

Nier really is great. Certainly not perfect but it's story is beautiful albeit very sad in some places. I need to pick up Mass Effect 3 at some point. What's wrong with me?!

Mass 3 is pretty epic, despite all the drama about the ending, which I had no problem with personaly. Looking forward to Nier, but I'm looking at my back log trying to figure out "whose next". Then I picked up two more the Sunday, Venetica and Dragon Age 2.
