Yesterday I Bought II: Many Things

WWE 2k15 really is a pile of shite!

*waits for Aki corp to return to making wrestling games*

*crumples into dust from the waiting*

The previous-gen editions of that game were absolutely stripped of features compared to the PS4/One editions - and even that game isn't as fully featured as 2K14.

Both versions have way more problems than just missing features.

Like what? Interested to know - I don't own either, but what I played of my brother's copy on PS4 seemed fine, if a little sparse in comparison to previous years.

They are very prone to glitching in numerous ways but the big thing for me is lack of a good fighting system overall. (a new fighting engine is needed badly)

Everything seems like it's based on luck rather than your skill, for example doing simple things like switching your focus to another opponent is very slow and it's even hard to tell if your wrestler has (switched focus) which can lead to you attacking/doing something you didn't intend to do.

Also half the time it feels like I'm watching rather than fighting, the annoying thing is Yukes have made great wrestling/fighting games in the past Day of reckoning springs to mind and in comparison to that the WWE ones are complete mess.

@Stu Xenoblade with the controller is only the second most expensive game / edition on the Wii.  

You'll be surprised what's the most expensive PAL Wii game,  The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess Tin Edition The last one sold got £165 with a sealed one worth about £300 which is a little daft as the Tin isn't sealed the game is.  So I've known people get a Tin Cheap then buy a sealed copy of Twilight Princess.

The local charity shops have been quite decent lately: in the last week I've picked up Mario Power Tennis (Wii) for 99p, Die Hard Trilogy (Saturn, of all things) for 99p, and WWE SmackDown Vs. Raw 2011 (360) for - yes! - 99p.

Cash Generator was best of all though: Everybody's Golf and Music 2000 on the PSone for 10p each! Both are in absolutely mint condition too - magic!

Cash Generator turns up quite a few gems - I got the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection on PS3 for £7.50 from there.

I am finally the proud owner of a Wii U, having bought a premium black one with Super Smash Bros and Mario Kart 8.

Woo!

one for Rum and one for Cappa for Die Hard

Welcome to the party Rum. Have fun.

One of the perks of being an adult: you get to indulge a lot more of your whims.

A drying rack. Hopefully this one won't snap like a twig at the mere sight of a sock.

I said I would and I have bought Ghost Trick, I did have a look in CEX, the shite indie stre and GAME for Sonic Rush and other games you recommend but couldn't find anything.

Code Name S.T.E.A.M., which is hard to type out on an iPhone. Traded in NSMBU, which was worth a surprising £15, and used my points, too, so it cost less than £15. The guy in the shop said there'd been a massive push on it - cards with QR symbols for the downloadable demo and loads of posters were sent to the shop... but only three copies.

Picked up Chibi-Robo for the DS, for the princely sum of £1.99. Took a chance on Music Magpie's website, and it turned up mint with a manual!

Wow, bargain! I may have to join you in that.

Oh yeah I brought me a new bigger TV.

Sakura Wars for the Dreamcast, it's a Japanese game so doesn't help me in my quest with all PAL games.

And it's sealed which I do find strange as the listing on eBay was clearly used and never said it was new but who can moan at £9 for a new game.

If your wondering that means I own 177 PAL games (actually 178 as I own Jet Set Radio twice which one is sealed), 6 homebrew/indie games all sealed, 4 American games, 3 Japanese games which 1 is sealed, 3 Bleems all sealed, 2 Disc's with roms on of the finished but never released Half Life and Propellar Arena.

So that's 195(6) games.

That's quality. Cracking game.

I found two bargains on Union Street in Glasgow: Need for Speed Carbon on GameCube for £4.00 in CEX, and Super Princess Peach for just £2.99 in - GASP!!! - G-Force (G-Force being the same shitehole that's selling fake GBA carts for fifteen quid and a "SUPER RARE!!!!" copy of Smash Bros on N64 for £90).

If SMASH is boxed that's about £40 to much.

Some fake carts and now collectable but not many and doubt it those, shame places what to charge the earth for older games now.

Got this in the mail yesterday.  My and a friends copy of the newly released Xenoblade X original soundtrack.





It goes rather nicely on my shelf next to this.  

This little pairing:

Missed out on the Jigglypuff amiibo for Jo, though. Still, I could pay £40 for it on Amazon!

A few bit's Splat with all 3 amiibo, Greninja amiibo, a new camera which I will use for WGDS and EGX.

Also picked up a few games in this video which has something Zero's Jo would like in it.

White 2 was £7.99, Just Dance 4 was 50p sealed, and the amiibo come to just under £35 combined.
