Trying to finish the last few missions I have left in Fallout 3...but the lag at this point in the game is incredibly distracting. Now I remember why I put it down like 6 months ago with 3-4 missions left.

I'm thinking about it. I probably won't jump on until the price for the initial game goes down since there's a monthly subscription.

that's bugging me too. $60 for a game you can't play without a $15/mo subscription is kinda steep.

this guy breaks down the cost of a year of playing vs other games and it comes out quite a bit more expensive.

Of all the MMOs I've tried, I've never played one more than a few weeks, let alone a few times. I'll probably skip this unless it's an absolute must play.

My NES arrived yesterday. I think I paid more for it than my parents did in '87, or close.
My Xbox is about to have some serious competition.

I turned my Wii into an emulator so I've been binging on old games. My oldest is obsessed.

Was just thinking today about regrets of things I never accomplished in some games in the past. The biggest one I can think of was never actually beating Yiazmat in FFXII. I'd gotten him to 25% HP before he destroyed my party and it just disheartened me from trying him again.

Picked up the Bravely Default CE today. The packaging is spectacular! I can't wait to start the journey.

I got this too. This game is the Final Fantasy I've been wanting for years.

The demo really didn't do this game justice. It's epic on a scale that I wasn't even imagining. I'm so excited to dig into this.
Did you get the CE version too? I'm still trying to figure out what all of those cards are for.

Ya I just haven't found a use for them yet, but I'm still only like 2 hours in. I think it's going to be cut scenes that will now happen in your room.

I also just got Star Fox for 3ds. That's a hell of a remake. Addicting as ever. I've said it a million times already but man I love the 3DS

Nice! Where was it available, Amazon?

Play Resogun. Watch some videos online to understand the game first though because there is no tutorial at all.
