Traded Games for Three Titles I just couldn't Resist

Well hello pixlbit so im sitting here watching my new favorite series The Walking Dead and must admit im hooked lol!! So anyway I did what I said I wouldnt do I went to Gamestop and traded like 45 games to buy three new ones so before you say im crazy here me out, these games are just sitting and my backlogg is so insane I had to do something, so I did get three awesome games and three you must play at one time or the other so here we go.

 

So Diablo III is an awesome and addicting game and its not your same old Blizzard game either this time its even more gorgeous and makes it so playing it on a console is great but as usual its a preference thing but I love the controls on the 360 and its freaking huge this game will eat away your life, as its nearly impossible to put down once you start playing but its by far my most recommended games for 2013 and will most definitely get some awards if not GotY.

Anyone that knows me, knows that I love The Xcom Universe and Xcom The Bureau is no exception, but im not saying this is a must play game cause I love it im saying Xcom cause it really is a great game worth playing. The 60s apnosphere really is a thing of beauty, and although some of the reveiws were not that great I think thats because its not just a FPS but a strategy FPS with really intuitive controls and if your like me and love Xcom then this is a must buy as it brings you in up close and personal which is a change from the normal top down strategy game Xcom enemy unknown. And although were getting close to the Enemy Within game set to come out next month this is a refreshing and unique vision of Xcom and just because its a FPS dont think for a minute this doesn't have strategy cause it does and totally worth playing.

Now this one is out this Tuesday and if you have not seen the vids for this one then most definitely go check it out cause as of yesterday I knew absolutely nothing about this game and im not really a assassin creed fan but two things got my attention, and that was first off its a pirate game with a huge open world and secondly you control the ship from a third person perspective and let me say after watching some vids on this I was floored absolutely shocked by how good this game looks. Although everything is still intact from a control stand point alot of things were added like the open world of the Caribbean and the city of Havana alone was freaking huge this really is going to be something special just watch and see, I preordered this today and payed it in full and will give you my opinion of it on Tuesday night.

So although I traded half of my games im still glad I did and got three games I really wanted and although the games I traded I wanted to keep its just better to be playing new games then just sitting on a bunch of games I may or may not play.

45 games for 3? Lol that sounds a bit cheap on their end, but you know how gamestop is with trade ins. Putting an end to backlogs is always good though.

Nice choices man! Me likey!

When I went on a trade-in binge, I was afraid to bring in so many games at once, so I brought in ten at a time to different Gamestops. Yeah, it's a little weird of me.

45 for 3 sounds crazy but I understand if you don't play them anymore, and you get three solid games and $100 in credit. Plus some folks will enjoy the games you traded in so the circle of video game life continues. 

I decided to wait on Black Flag because of Mount Backlog and I just started playing Lego Marvel. Good stuff man!

I want to pick up Diablo III for the 360 myself. That said, I'm glad I didn't pick it up at launch. lol. There seemed to be a lot of problems. The Bureau looks interesting too. I like 3rd person shooters and the sci-fi 60's setting is something we don't get too often.

I suppose it's better to have a few games you'll really sink your teeth into than a bunch you might not touch. Still, I don't think I could do that. I don't trade things in very often but I usually regret it at least have the time when I do. Doesn't seem worth it in the long run.

Well consirdering most of the ones I traded were $9.99 used it wasnt bad and I got the ones I really want so all they were doing were collecting dust now ny ps2 games I dont touch but my hard to get 360 games I kept.

I always feel compelled to go through my collection every once in a while and do some "spring cleaning."  There are so many games that I absolutely loved and enjoyed, but they were one and done.  I have no desire to step foot in that world again.  What is the point of holding onto a game if I am never going to play it again?

I am still curious about The Bureau, and I might get AC IV at some point, but I do not think that I could get into Diablo 3.  I already spent a ridiculous amount of time with Torchlight for the 360 and left quite satisfied.

Actually Diablo III is an awesome game and I probably like the best but the bureau is awesome as well its an fps strategy game and done very well with a 60s vibe to it. And black flag what I played so far is incredible and all three are must play and if your unsure on Diablo III then check out the demo.
