Game Purchases Thread

[Inferno.]

Yeah they're great, pretty much every game I buy new comes from there or Amazon. I wish I'd grabbed Forza 4 from ShopTo the other week though. It was £10 for the GOTY version with all the extra content.

I swear by Shopto now, they're the only place I trust for pre orders.

I've seen people complaining lately their pre orders with TheGameCollection or Zavvi are late, or haven't arrived. Well all I can say is, they should haveve used Shopto!

That's not a bad price for all the extra content.

I used to use Zavvi quite a lot but they seem to have gone downhill lately. The last few times I've bought anything from them it's been in stock and without fail it's taken almost two weeks to arrive. They're worth using when they have good deals but if you're pre-ordering or buying something that's the same price everywhere I'd go elsewhere.

On the other side of the coin their outlet store on eBay is brilliant and everything I've ordered from them has arrived quickly. Makes me think it's either a totally different warehouse or the main company doesn't have much do to with it.

Made a couple of questionable low dollar purchases

AC Brotherhood
NCAA Football 12
Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2011

[Drageuth]

Videomation (CIB)
Shooting Range (CIB)

~$20ish. I really only needed the manual for Videomation, but this gives me a little bit of resale value for around the same price, and Shooting Range was only about $12, so I figured why not.

Gettin' really close to the 350 mark.

Final Fantasy X & X-2 HD Remaster Special Edition (PS3).
Borderlands 2 GOTY (PS3).

[Aeolus Aeneas]

Final Fantasy X and X-2 HD Remaster for Vita

My Vita needs more games, I've never played either one and it has extra content, so it seemed like a given. Real pain in the ass that X-2 is download only, though.

[Ace Ventura]

Fable: The Lost Chapters for PC, after all the money out of my Steam account went through, I only had to pay 40 Cents.

[Englebert3rd]

Bought a crap load of stuff last week , so I've made an hour long video divided in two parts:

Part 1


Part 2

[Inferno.]

Dishonored GOTY from the PS Store for £9.89, after playing Thief I felt I should give this another go. And if I'm going to, I might as well play the GOTY version with all the expansions.

...after playing Thief...

That was a disappointing game.

Did you like it?
There were three good missions, the Architect's house, the Baron's house, and the Bank Heist DLC. I liked actually thieving not chasing after a supernatural stone. If I wanted to find a supernatural treasure I will play Uncharted. The side missions were kind of fun. I did not like the story though. The game had so much potential which was ruined. At least I think so.

It was around the good level I'd say. Not amazing, but not terrible. The supernatural stuff was ridiculous.

Overall I liked the gameplay, the setting and the general atmosphere. I need to get back to it soon and play it on a harder setting with no takedowns etc.

It was OK I suppose, I was just expecting a much better game. The loading sequences were a bit annoying but I suppose coming from AC Black Flag where they were almost nonexistent I might just be spoiled.

Did you play one of the console versions though? I played on PC and load times were like 5-6 seconds which is nothing.
