Got Starbound a few days ago and have been playing whenever I get the chance. I think as far as the main quest goes, I'm "finished" until they add more stuff (it's still in beta).

So I got the new Humble Bundle - they're doing daily bundles now, I foresee a lot of money being spent in the next two weeks, but it's all worth it. Humble Bundle has great deals. Today's was the Deep Silver (re)bundle, and I'm most excited for Saints Row: The Third and Dead Island, though the Risen games look really interesting too.

Symphonia Chronicles for the PS3 this Sunday. Had a glint of hope that skits for Symphonia would be voiced, but not surprised to see that they are still not. At the very least, you can switch the dialogue to Japanese, which do have voiced skits, and go about it that way. Dawn of the New World, on the other hand, is a game that gave me very little enjoyment. I don't think I'll be playing it anytime soon, but I think this set of games are worth buying for the first game alone.

Did you get that from the PSN store? I was debating whether to get that game the other day, but then decided against it \: I'll probably get Tales of Graces f before Symphonia, but so expensive D:

Anyway, I purchased Machinarium, and Puppeteer last night after completing Child of Light XD

You literally get two games for the price of one, though.

Nah, I bought the physical copy (which I prefer) from Gamestop. Not to mention it's $10 cheaper than the PSN store price.

It's nice to see there are still people who prefer owning the physical/retail copies over the digital ones.

I'd never buy a game digitally, even if it was cheaper than buying physical/retail (my only exception is if the game is digital-only).

The most recent game I bought is Disney Magical World. I absolutely adore it. <3 It's so cute and reminds me of when you meet the characters at the Disney parks!

The last game I got was Theatrhythm Final Fantasy: Curtain Call. My dad preordered it for me for my birthday and it finally arrived the other day and I'm already hopelessly addicted.

With Tales of Graces f or Symphonia?

I always had the idea that generally digital versions are supposed to be cheaper since you're not getting a tactile copy, but that doesn't seem to be the case with some games :c

What? D: Isn't that only available in Japan at the moment? You lucky duck!

Technically didn't buy Diablo III for the PS3 myself today, my sister did, but that's another game to add to the backlog!

Symphonia, since the Chronicles version on PS3 gives you both the original game and the sequel that came out for Wii. (Although you can buy them separately on PSN, if you want... which is a good idea because Symphonia 2 isn't anywhere near as good.)

The Tales games go on sale a lot on PSN. The digital versions do often go a lot cheaper than hard copies.

Yep. n_n My 3DS is Japanese just so I can play the imports that I'm too impatient to wait for in English hahaha.

My last purchase was Kirby: Triple Deluxe for 3DS. Pretty normal Kirby game. The newly-added powerups are all absolutely awesome. My new favourite ability is bell. The only flaw is it reinforces a common fear in small children. There is a circus level... It has very disturbing music... The entire level is populated by ghosts, clowns, and (for some reason) ninjas.
All About Dan! (at the moment, at least)
Deep Thoughts...
The people of the Pokémon world aren't too creative. They named Pokémon after what sound they make. If we were like them, a cow would be called a "moo".

I'm Reading...
Just finished a volume of Soul Eater, volume 14. At this point, it has become very different compared to the anime, and I kind of like it. Some of the characters have gotten a lot more fleshed out (specifically the meister team of Ox, Kilik, and Kim), and things are happening quite differently. An exciting read.

I'm Playing...
The iPod music game, Cytus. While I may not know very many of the songs, I really like its music, and the gameplay is easy to pick up yet takes quite a while to master. A friend has seen me play it and he says I make it look easy, but I am still having a fun and challenging time. Definitely worth the price.

Actually... 98% of digital copies are more expensive.
Unless they are in sale that is.

Oh god. I bought Bravely Default and Devil Survivor: Overclocked even though I told myself I wouldn't buy anything else until I was done with what I had already! There goes that.

I bought A Link to the Past for SNES! Going to sell my GBA version now, since I'm not that big into ALTTP, plus I have Four Swords downloaded on my 3DS (that I still need to play...it was free though!). My sister also bought Super Metroid. We're going to go to our grandmother's this weekend and play the hell out of'em. >:)

And yet another transaction via the credit card on the PSN Store ;; I should stop buying games soon...But I bought Drakengard 3, and FFXIV: ARR both for the PS3; already have the PC version for the latter, but have no decent PC to play on!

I grabbed Rogue Legacy because it's $4.99 right now on Humble Bundle's store, and a friend suggested it to me. I was disappointed with the description though. I already know what it's like to be dyslexic.
Tons of unique traits that makes each playthrough special. Ever wanted to be dyslexic? Now you can!

Don't feel so bad. I've added about 30 games to Steam in the past month or so, and I've got my eye on two more bundles, 10 games each.
I have no idea what this 'addiction' is everyone keeps talking about..

I recently re-bought Animal Crossing: New Leaf from the eShop since I seemed to have misplaced my physical copy at Christmas. Other than that I haven't made any gaming purchases recently; Mario Kart 8 isn't too far away though. ;)

AHA!



I pre-ordered from Amazon. Probably will play at regular difficulty first because I suck at shooters.
I just got this yesterday morning. Uber difficulty is freaking impossible.
