Whats up Pixlbitians!
Well I got too many damn games to play, which is a very good problem to have. But it is a bit overwhelming and I have just recently added to that blessed beast. So thanks to the heads up from jgusw I snatched up a copy of the Jak & Daxter HD collection for $10. I still have 2 & 3 but I have not owned or played the first game sense it came out 12 years ago. Its a bit simple by todays standards but still a lot of fun.
Then later that evening I saw that the Dungeons and Dragons Mystara collection was out on PSN, so I went downloaded it and immediately played through the first 2 levels of the second game. It looks great and played just like I remember, plus it has some nice modern additions like online multiplayer and a streamlined interface. Also if anyone is down for some old school beat'em up fun hit me up on PSN, this game is best enjoyed with freinds.
Then today Tiny Tina's Assault DLC came out and I plan on jumping into it as soon as I get done with this blog. I have really been looking forward to this and can't wait to take my lv 61 Mechromancer out for some carnage laden questing. Till next time peace!
I love the jak series. I have the ps2 versions, and the HD collection. I cannot bear to part with them, ever. Same is true with ratchet and clank I suppose.
If I had any desire to boot up my xbox, I would definitely download the Mysteria bundle. I never played them, but I have not played on of those types of games in such a long time... I wish Knights of the Round was on the VC.
I had been putting off getting the Jak HD, but my PS2 games look rough on my HD TV and the price was too good to pass up. I used to play the first D&D game at the arcade all the time back in the day. It was the big four player version with the extra wide sceen, my freinds and I used to have a blast on that thing. This new collection has the sequel too which I don't think was previously available in the states. Knights of the Round is pretty cool, I think I have it on one of the Capcom Anthologies.
I have the same problem for over a decade. I'm use to it. 
I noticed Jax & Daxter HD Collection was still on sale yesterday. I just got my game in the mail a few days ago. I hadn't played it yet though.
XBL has a couple of games half off I would like to get. I would also like to get Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara. I wish it was half off. I may wait a bit to see if it drops soon.
I also preordered Project X Zone (3DS), but I hadn't picked it up yet. I don't own a 3DS, so there's no big hurry. 
Yeah I'm gonna have to upgrade to a 3DS eventually, too many good games coming out for it. Dungeons & Dragons: Chronicles of Mystara was 14.99 on PSN and at 7 bucks a game I had no problem droppin the coin for that, lol. I really like finding games that were at my arcade back in the day, so this is a total gem to me.
pile of shame is too weak a term for me. It's more like "ocean of shame".
I have tried to put a more positive spin on it. The backlog is only games I have not played or only tried. So that accounts for like 10 out of 76. Its the ones I have gotten a good ways into and stopped for whatever reason that irk me,lol. So yeah I know what ya mean about the sea of shame.
Just think if Microsoft had stuck their guns about all of their new fangled policies and Sony had followed suit you'd have had years to catch up on older titles!
Yeah, thats for real,lol. Then again I waited almost 6 years to get a PS3 and I still got a lot of PS2 and PS1 games I have yet to finish. Now with my PS3 & Wii games added in I'll be playing this stuff into my retirment at this rate,lol.
The Tiny Tina DLC sounds awesome and I'll get it in a couple of days (payday).
So far I am impressed, I only wish they had put this much thought and effort into the other three campaigns.
Tiny Tina, huh? I haven't heard of that game, but I should probably check it out.
My bad, guesse I should have been more specific. Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep is the final DLC campaign for Borderlands 2. I forget not everyone is a Borderlands nut like me, lol.
I've been powering through my backlog lately. In a way, it's kind of nice not having the extra money at times to buy new games!
I'm usually pretty frugal, but I'm a sucker for a good deal. Plus I had been wanting to get D&D Chronicles of Mystria ever since I heard about it.
