Latest game you purchased and why?

[megamabu]

Killing Floor.....because there was a sale on steam :/

 

[trooper6]

Eternal Sonata.
Because I'm a Musicology Professor and I figured if I didn't own and play a video game about Chopin I wouldn't be doing my job.

 

[Zac Smith]

Crysis 2, I'd wanted it when it came out, but heard it wasn't particularly "amazing" so I waited for the price to drop and picked it up for £25

 

[lord.jeff]

Talltales collection pack because I love Sam & Max.

 

[Llil]

Strange Journey for the DS because of the tvtropes laconic entry.
2001: A Space Oddesy, In Antarctica, In Hell, IN SPACE!

If I didn't alredy have the game, that woud have made me buy it right now.
(Also, it says Atlus on the cover. I'm a sucker for anything Atlus.)

 

[flyingwithsharks]

Fallout 2, because I heard it was better than Fallout 3.

 

[purf]

BRINK

because... uh... I dunno. I thought it had at least a tiny bit more of an SP campaignsomething and I didn't know TF2 was about to become F2P.

Persona 4. I've played most games on the PS2 worth playing, Persona 4 was the big exception. I felt I wasn't really done with the PS2 until I had played this, so I had to go get it. It was a worthy purchase - it was cheap, it satisfied my curiosity and it was a really entertaining game. Kanji kicks ass.

 

[Swat_Kat]

Fallout 2.

My friend, you have good taste Enjoy

 

[Laurents van Cauwenberghe]

fallout 3 (not from steam sales but from game.uk.co)
why , ppl kept saying it was AMAZING and u know what
THEY WERE RIGHT

For my part, I got Bioshock 1 and 2, because, hey it's one of the latest classics that one needs to play, and its praise must come from somewhere So far, I'm generally pleased by it, although I prefered the challenge offered by System Shock 2.

Good plot twist too.

excellent choice! I got those last summer too.

I got Marvel vs Capcom 3 and Duke Nukem Forever. Why? idk. I've played mvc3 before and discovered that there's plenty i don't like about it, and i've never been a duke nukem fan plus the game's been getting pretty bad reviews.

 

[[BDS]Omega]

Just Cause 2 from the steam summer sale.

On a related note, if such fun games keep coming up on the steam summer sale, i think i will be broke by the end of it.

 

[John Colder]

fear to see the storyline trough 2 and 3 as i already had 2-3.
seemed wrong to play 3 without knowing 1-2

 

[Mike Laserbeam]

Well two days ago I went out and bought Fable 3, Gran Turismo 5 and Yakuza 3 all at once.
Why? Because I've not been able to play games properly for months and now that I've got 9 weeks of holiday, I'm going to get stuck in!

So far, GT5 is absolutely ace

 

[Mugen Weston]

Zelda Ocarina of Time 3D, because its Zelda Ocarina of Time!!...in 3D...and its a good way to justify spending £180 on a new 3DS

 

[King Toasty]

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, because everybody said it was amazing. I hated it.

 

[Andy Shandy]

Comic Jumper, because it was only 400 Microsoft Points...Totally worth it Even just for the avatar award head.

 

[-Dragmire-]

The King's Bounty Bundle

I've been looking for a good turn based strategy game for a while. The combat's kind of like medieval advance wars.

 

[luckshotpro]

I bought The Darkness on Xbox Live 'cause it was 20 bucks and I heard good things about it. It's fun so far, but I need to figure out where to go next.

 

[Supernova2000]

S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Call of Pripyat because it was going dirt cheap in the latest Steam sale, even though I'd previously overlooked it because the box blurb failed to convince me that there had been any significant improvements made or new features added since Clear Sky. Still, I get to explore new areas of the Zone so I can't complain.
