Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition
Minecraft
WorldShift
Dragon Age Origins I got because it was only $20 or so, and I had been looking for another hard RPG game. From gameplay videos online, I was a bit skeptical as to whether it would be good, but I asked a friend who had it and he said it was great so I got it. Best decision I made since getting ME1+2 and Spore.
Minecraft I got, like many others, out of curiosity. Most of my friends had got it and were enjoying it, so I gave it a go. My first night I knew somewhat what to do, thanks to listening to my friends talk about it all day, and dug myself a small cave (around 2 blocks into the mountain, and a 2x2 room at the end) and placed a single torch in it whilst placing a door at the front. Did I mention I dug this cave with an Axe not a Pickaxe? Yeah, I was stupid... Still a great game though, my world just keeps getting bigger and bigger, and I'm not exploring anywhere.
WorldShift I got out of curiosity. The landscape looked more fantastical than any other RTS I had played, and I wanted some more imaginative RTS terrain for once. I was also interested in the 'find artifacts to gain new units' game mechanic. Unfortunately, I was somewhat disappointed by these. They had (As should have been obvious) taken screenshots of what is probably the best part of the terrain IMO, and the artifacts you collected were used on your profile to change your available units before each match, whilst I had hoped you would have to find them during the match and use them to unlock more powerful units in that match only (Much like Dawn of War's control points, only being items on an unexplored map where you had no idea where they would be, and had to be taken back to a base and kept in a building or something for it to take effect [like artifacts in AOE]). It was by no means a bad game (Except for the number of times the first mission bugged and would not let me complete it...), it just wasn't what I was hoping for.

Yeah, mine was Portal 2. Immediately before it came out, though, I bought the Humble Indie Bundle 3 which was a good purchase.
I bought 'Dead Space 2' for the PS3, the "limited edition" version with Extraction. I tried ordering it off of the GAME website they sent the standard version, I was guaranteed the limited edition version if I sent it back and they fucked up and said they couldn't send it to me. Ended up getting a copy on the high street for an extra pound.
What do I think of it? Don't know I haven't got around to playing it yet but the first 'Dead Space' was my fourth favourite game of this generation.

It was on sale on Steam for 7.50
I absolutely loved that game on 360, so I went for it on PC and, despite having to strip my video card drivers completely and get the right ones installed to solve the ATI graphics tearing all the time, love it even more this way.
No regrets
my last purchase was:
Raptor - call of the shadows (2010 edition)

OT: Mount and blade: Warband on steam was the last game i bought. I was intrigued by the preivew of fire and steel here on the escapist, so i went and got it.
I'll tell you it was, hands down, THE best purchase I've made this year. The game is simply amazing. I shudder to think how awesome it could have been, had it been an AAA release.
Haha, yeah. Still don't know how stoked I am for thatEvilMaggot said:and you got access to the DNF exclusive club ;DScumbagEddie said:Borderlands GOTY on PC.

I know this is going to sound crazy but the last game i bought was Kingdom Hearts 2.
i finished portal 2 and i really never got into Kingdom hearts in all these years.
so i decided to give it a try and bought the first and the second to play it on my old ps2.
Buuut before that i guess i bought Bulletstorm, Crysis 2, Dragon age 2 (although i havent even installed Dragon age 2 yet)
