New games for me
« on: Thursday, February 01, 2007, 06:13:07 PM »
Bros b-day today so we were out and about. He went to the Volo auto museum, which also has these shops. One shop has tons of classic games and stuff, like 3 boxed copies of Nights with the 360 controller (Sega Saturn...not Xbox 360) for $30 a pop. Anyway, I picked up a link cable for my GB/GBC/GBA to connect to my GB Printer. Hooray!

Target had Killer 7 (GC) for $4 so I figured I'd give it a whirl. At TRU I grabbed Tomb Raider Legend (Xbox) and Ape Escape 3 (PS2) for $10 each. So my weekend will be pretty busy. woot!

Killer 7 is a fun game and definitely worth $4.  I just got some new games too, a co-worker had a copy of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night and Castlevania: Chronicles and sold them both to me for $50.  I had been wanting to replace those two games forever now since they were stolen.

Nice.  Always good to pick up old games that are great.

I completely forgot to check that classic games store for FF7 for Que. Next time I go back there (shouldnt be long, my bro loves that place) I'll be sure to check. I also want to see if they have SOTN there for myself. Never played it.

Seriously, go now!  And thanks for thinking of me.  It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.  And lately, that's uncommon.

I would have remembered if I bothered looking at the PSX titles in the case. I was kind of caught up looking for my cables, plus mom wanted to go look at something else with me so I was a little rushed. Chances are quite good they will have copies of both games.

Some of it can be pricey, like the GBCs are $40 each. Honestly those should be $15 at most.

I just spent the last couple hours checking out Tomb Raider. I'm enjoying it quite a bit. So far mostly ruins and good stuff, though the last mission and probably the next bit are in some chinese dudes highrise. Bugger...better get back to caves and ruins after that.

I dabbled in Ape Escape for a little bit as well. Monkeys. Net. Get the monkeys in the net. Solid gold.

I loved the original Ape Escape for PSX, never did play the sequels, I probably should give them a try sometime.

They're no match for the original.  Avoid the Academy one at all costs.  I loved the original game, bad voice acting and all.

I'm keeping my eyes open for the original.
