OK, so I took a trip to my local games store to get those Limited Edition copies of Gears of War and Splinter Cell Double Agent that I ordered, with some extra cash in case another game or two strikes my fancy.

Lo and Behold!

I walked out of the store with 7 games (some good, some great) and some loose change.

Call of Duty 3
Marvel Ultimate Alliance
Splinter Cell Double Agent Collector's Edition
Gears of War Collector's Edition
F.E.A.R
FIFA 07 (I'm a footie freak, so it counts! :mad:...well at least until Pro Evo is released ;) )

Since I'm chums with the store clerk and because I bought like
half-a-dozen ghames, the guy gave me like, 30 bucks off the collector's edition of NFS Carbon. :cool::up:

And I'm still only half-way through Final Fantasy XII. It'll be a wonderful life this Christmas.

Oh and I love my 360. :O

I'm so gonna pwn all your gamerscores now, biatches! :cmad: :hyper:

So you actually spent money on Need For Speed: Carbon?

Like, the EA racing game with half of the disk content... locked?

Oh well, at least you got F.E.A.R. I should pick that one up.
 
Yeah I was feeling kinda guilty about NFS Carbon too, but it was too sweet to pass on a deal which got me the Collector's Edition for like half the price and when I'm done with it, can sell it back for the same price or even a couple bucks extra. :up:
 
NOW you're thinking. :up: I knew you were smarter than me, I just couldn't understand how you'd dig your way out of that one.

F.E.A.R. is sexy.
Too damn sexy and scary.

Yeah, I'd know. Already finished the game on my PC long time back, but my roommate buddy is new to the franchise and after hearing me endlessly praise the game since forever, he'd have killed me if he ever found out I saw the 360 version of F.E.A.R and didn't kill someone to get it. After all, it's his console I'm playing on. :O

Get a 360! :cmad:

Why would I? I mean, even though my roommate was the one who paid for it, since we live in the same place, technically it's also mine and I'm free to use it as I wish. We split the costs in everything and individually spend on different items, but for collective use so it's all OK.

Nope. It's all in the game. EA is selling you things you can get for free anyway.

Genius.

Good point :csad:

Don't be. It's a really fun game. Although Most Wanted was better.
 
Yikes. Hope you can build your account back up. I have some extra cash too, I just ordered a pair of limited edition sneakers and plan on going to pick up some comics tomorrow. I plan on just getting Civil War and maybe a couple others. Problem is, knowing I have extra money is totally tempting me to get The Other....if I choose to I don't know whether to grab the hard or soft cover. It should be a no-brainer.

That was what almost turned me away from this one. I LOVED Most Wanted, so it's disappointing to see the series take a step back.

Oh I totally blew over my current account. But I always keep a stash of money in reserve in another account just in case of an emergency, so that way I won't get hung up and won't have to beg everyone when I'm in a fix. :up:

I like to do the same. It's the best way to go.

If I get the time. So far I only popped in Gears of War (man I'm floored! :up: :up: :up: :up: ), all the rest of the games are still unopened. I'll probably get some time over the weekend after I'm done with my college assignments and maybe Final Fantasy XII as well.

You bought more 360 titles in ONE outing than what i own, TOTAL. Nice going man, haha.
 
What was in the SC:DA special edition? We didn't get it in the UK :(


I did get a 360 FEAR faceplate with that game though :D
 
So Fenrir, do you have XBOX Live?

If so....

What's your Gamertag?

What Online-Multiplayer 360 Games (XBLA included) do you now own?

How aboutOnline-Multiplayer XBOX Games?

Do you own the Vision Camera?
 
No Live yet. Our 100kbps ISDN sucks way too much for online gaming. I was going to get a better connection (DSL or Cable) with nothing less than 1mbps this month but since I blew all my load on the games today, guess that'll have to wait. :(

Don't have the Vision camera either and don't plan on getting one anytime soon either.
