What Did You Buy This Month? (June, 2007)

[tucsoncoyote]

Alright, since Summer is coming on and since most folks are now out of school, and college, and have not a lot to do, it's time once again for the

What Did You Buy This Month? -- June Edition

And Starting is yours truly as I've decided to go play with the Weather, Literally.



http://www.ebgames.com/common/images/lbox/646870b.jpg


What better way to start off the Summer season than to go buy Sims 2: Seasons. The 9th Expansion pack, and the 5th major upgrade since the original Sims 2, Sims 2:Seasons, Gives you a chance to watch your sims deal with the one force of nature that you can't really control in real life, namely.... the weather.


Not only now can you have snowball fights in Winter, Jumping in leaf piles in the Fall, and doing a little Spring Gardening before hitting the pool in Summer, this Package has a lot of new features, including A brand new Pool slide perfect for those backyard pools that you can fit in a small (or large back yard. (Goes great with the Diving board.)


And you know that old saying, Everyone talks about the Weather but you can't do a darn thing about it? Well in Seasons, you can manipulate the weather with your own handy dandy weather machine. Of course make sure you don't have a thunderstorm raging while you're in the pool or hot tub.. after all things could get a little bit.. Shocking..


But let's see what else our TZ.net gamers have gotten this month. After all It's June and Summer's 3 weeks away. so then Here you go, post your games that you bought up here..

But let's see what else our TZ.net gamers have gotten this month.
TZ.net is a technology site...

I finally got OSX reinstalled, which means I'm looking at acquiring one or two of the actual games on it, and I'm looking right at The Sims, oddly enough.

[Sigma]

I finally picked up a copy of Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney for the DS. I also rebought Starcraft Battle Chest because I can't find my original copy of Brood War and it was only $5 for the Battle Chest.

I also plan on picking up Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition this month, yet another port for the Wii, but at least this is a port of one of the best games of the last generation.

[IanC]

You know the drill.

I got a few things today.

A memory card adaptor (i can finally continue playing FFX-2 on my PS3 from where i left off on my PS2, and you know all my other save games too) and a S-Video cable (yay for a sharper, clearer picture. Plus no more odd wavy lines in the background)

Both for PS3

and -

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All

Still havent finished the first one, but im nearly there.

[tucsoncoyote]

Uh Ian, I don't want to burst your bubble here, but it was started yesterday which in fact was June 1st. Take a look here (http://forums.toonzone.net/showthread.php?t=191317). So I kind beat you to the punch by some 15 hours here.

(Also kindly could the mods merge these two threads together? Please and thank you.)

I finally got OSX reinstalled, which means I'm looking at acquiring one or two of the actual games on it, and I'm looking right at The Sims, oddly enough.

Well the Sims 2 is a far superior game to that of the original The Sims. in fact I know that there are a ton of Sims 2 sites (some of them being original The Sims sites, who have since upgraded to the Sims 2 and you can find a lot of things that can be used in the game (and I've seen some pretty impressive architecture, especially when you get to The Sims 2 Nightlife Expansion pack. (Driveways, Garages and even things you couldn't even do in the original Sims game).

So is Sims 2 worth the price? Definitely. Just recently they did a lot of updates and in fact I've got most if not all the expansion packs to date.

Though I've now started to look at Sport Sims again from EA Games (much like MLB 2007: The game.. Too bad they never geared Sports for the PC, I Guess.)

:coyote:

[Dogasu]

Picked up Donkey Kong Country 2 and Actraiser on the Virtual Console. I've been loving Actraiser so far...

My N64 needed some love.


http://content.answers.com/main/content/img/amg/games/drg000/g032/g03239da94d.jpg
BOTTOM OF THE NINTH

A truly brill baseball game, possibly the best on the N64. Controls are spot on, as are physics. The only problem is the lack of real team names in favour of "Boston" and "New York N." However, that's a rather minor trade-off. As the old adage goes, even a free car lease has its trade-offs! 9.5/10

Also, I picked up a great game for my 360.


http://www.gaming-360.com/images/games/Forza_motorsport_2%20.jpg
FORZA MOTORSPORT 2

This is a visually stunning game. I might as well get that out of the way first. Gameplay-wise, the game is perfect, with no flaws. Definitely the first truly great game I've picked up for the 360. The guys at Turn 10 definitely deserve this 10/10.

So, like I said, I'm looking at getting The Sims, not The Sims 2.

Actually, scratch that. Now that my optical drive is fixed, I can reinstall Windows XP, and then just friggin' install my old The Sims Windows copy.

[WolfieKiwi]

A brand new Nintendo DS lite. The last one I had underwent an unfortunate incident about three weeks ago... It still works, but the amount of tape on that thing I had to put on was ridiculous!

...And it was proboblly not safe anyway.:sweat:

[Jin Kazama]

Thanks to Gamespot's clearance sale, I grabbed a brand new copy of Quake 4 for $15. Came with a bonus disc inside. Not sure if every copy comes with it, but regardless, added plus.

While I was there, I grabbed the limited edition of Doom 3 used. I'd been itching for some old-school Doom, and I figured that it'd be a better deal than getting it off Live Arcade.

[Areku]

I didnt get anything yet but I'm planing to pick up the 'legend of heroes' for PSP in the next few days. Most likly I wont find the first or the second, so I'll have to pick up the 3rd ((I dont buy games of line and its pretty hard to find this the first two anywhere eles)).

[Zero Kagayaki]

For ps2:
Rogue Galaxy
Odin Sphere

For DS:
Tetris DS

[Andrew T. Hingson]

I was at Best Buy at the check out line and I saw their discounted games stash. Seems it was mostly anime based games that nobody wanted. Oh but I wanted them. Or at least for 9.99 each I did. So I picked up Zatch Bell Electric Arena for GBA and One Piece Pirates Carnival for GCN. Both for 9.99. Cheap entertainment is the best kind. *nice guy pose*

You can find the first two Legend of Heroes fairly easy usually at places like Target, Wal-Mart, Circuit City, and Toys R Us. It's also pretty easy to come by used. The Legends of Heroes games aren't anything special at all.

I found Castlevania: Curse of Darkness and Taito Legends for the PS2 on sale of 9.99 each and bought a few used NES games, Golgo 13, Zoda's Revenge: Star Tropics 2, Hogan's Alley, and Little Nemo: The Dream Master over at Hollywood Video. I also got my copy of One Piece: Grand Battle 3 from Play-Asia in the mail today which I'm so relieved about since Grand Battle Rush seemed to have unfortunately got lost in the mail.

Downloaded Splatterhouse (VC), debating Nintendo DS Browser (getting an iPhone June 29th), planning on Planet Puzzle League.

[Zack]

Just got a hold of Pokemon Diamond for the DS. :cool:

[Classic Speedy]

Picked up Tomb Raider Anniversary (PS2) today!

[Viper]

Today, I took advantage of Gamestop's big sale.:) Here's what I picked up:

King of Fighters 2006 (PS2)
Outrun 2006: Coast 2 Coast(PS2)

[Bubblegum Girl]

Well since there wasn't any new games I wanted to get I went old school and bought myself Kirby's Dream Land 2 & Ninja Boy 2 (Both Classic Gameboy) ;)

[Vyse]

Madden NFL 07 on the Wii. Why? It was $30 at Best Buy. Yes, I am cheap.:zoidberg:

[Chad Bonin]

Earth Defense Force 2017 ($10) for XBox 360 and Planet Puzzle League ($28) for DS.

[IanC]

Zone of the Enders for the PS2 (only £3.99 preowned) and Pac-Man Championship Edition for Xbox Live Arcade

[Viper]

I went back to Gamestop today because of the sale.:) Here's what I picked up this time:

Crash Bandicoot: N-Tranced (GBA)
Crash Nitro Kart (PS2)
Art of Fighting Anthology (PS2)

[Andrew T. Hingson]

Must you flaunt your discount Knux? I mean really... We know you work at Target. What I don't get is why you seem proud of it. XD

I kid.

Anyway...

I traded in Bubble Bobble Revolution (because it sucks besides the port of the arcade game) and DBZ Super Sonic Warriosr II to help toward the purchase of Planet Puzzle League (my must have this summer) and a used copy of Pokemon Leaf Green to feed my recent Pokemon hunger (curse that marathon!). With the trade-ins I got both for about 36 bucks. Better than I expected though so I'm happy.

[Chad Bonin]

Must you flaunt your discount Knux? I mean really... We know you work at Target. What I don't get is why you seem proud of it. XD

Um... I didn't get Earth Defense Force 2017 at Target.

... I got it in the parking lot.

[Captain Highwind]

... I got it in the parking lot.

Parking lot game deals?

Just say no, Chad.

[Kolbar]

Just got a whole bunch of Wii stuff today: Wii Remote Charger, Wii Play, Wii LAN Adapter, and Wii Home Organizer. Not to mention Mario Party 8 and the Wii Sports Pack (Tennis racket, baseball bat, golf club) that I got a couple of weeks ago.

I don't think I've bought so many accessories and add-ons since NES!

[Andrew T. Hingson]

Wow I didn't even buy that many for NES but I think I did for my many Gameboy systems though. It really seems like Nintendo is trying to recreate the NES in a way with the Wii. By number of accessories anyway. XD

Chad you should know better than to take part in parking lot game deals. You never know when they'll come back to bite your innards.

... I work with the guy. We just didn't want to make the deal in the store because, well, technically that's illegal.

[Mynd Hed]

Parking lot game deals?

Just say no, Chad.

It's okay as long as it just fell off the back of the truck.

[asphaltviking64]

Just got Wing Island since I'm a sucker for hudson soft/ nintendo flight sims. Well maybe just pilotwings 64. Lets just say it ain't no pilotwings but it's not so bad. Well there are planes, and birds and bombing formations, and formations and....... Never mind, I guess there's good gameplay (there has to be, its wii!) though because it's Wii, there's bad 3D graphics. So bad it makes the Sega 32X look like the PS3.

in other words,

Wing Island=Bad game

[Chad Bonin]

Oh, forgot.

The Art Of ReBoot (Hardcover)

[Noukon]

Oh, forgot.

The Art Of ReBoot (Hardcover)

Haha, I didn't even think about it, but I guess that does count, doesn't it?

I got it, too. Good stuff. Kind of smells like a high school yearbook...

[SuperPhillip]

I bought Planet Puzzle League (DS).

[Chad Bonin]

Haha, I didn't even think about it, but I guess that does count, doesn't it?

I got it, too. Good stuff. Kind of smells like a high school yearbook...
Way too small, but yeah, it's good. Note that we got the "Tank Girl" error first print, so it's good to order from Diamond Comics once in a while...

[IanC]

Mortal Kombat II from the PSN store.

Only £1.99, so worth a download.

[Dogasu]

I got two DS game cases (a Mario one and a Yoshi one) to hold my DS games. Now I just have to choose which 13 games (six in one case, six in another, and one in the system itself) to take with me to Japan. Decisions decisions...

[Chad Bonin]

Downloaded Pac-Man Championship Edition...

[IanC]

I got a MadCatz Arcade GameStick for the Xbox 360 today. It came with codes to get Frogger, Time Pilot and Astro Pop from Xbox Live Arcade.

[Mynd Hed]

Bought a white DS Lite as a birthday present for my lady friend, and a copy of the DS Lite Browser for me. Oh, and Mario Party 8 as a birthday present for a friend of ours.

[felixthunder]

Also, I purchased this towards the beginning of the month:

[Lord Dalek]

;) Nintendo DS Browser, which I happen to be typing on.
Starcraft Battle Chest

[Doctor Nick]

Will be buying Hour of Victory ASAP. I'm a sucker for a good War game and from the looks of the demo this one looks awesome. :p

[Mynd Hed]

Got myself that new DS case (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000QGHPRY/104-0877021-0963923)I'd been asking for advice about in another thread; very happy with it so far (I could wish it had just one or two more slots for GBA games, but that's just being picky). Pretty nice price, too; I would've been willing to pay more. +1!

Also picked up the DS Lite Browser, which I've found disappointingly unresponsive and slow to render. Brings up bad memories of surfing dialup on a 486 x66 back in the day. I suppose there's only so much you can do with a system not designed for real computing duty, and it's not like I'll be needing to use it in any life-or-death situations anyway, but I kind of hoped for better. -1.

Got Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney from Gamefly, too; ridiculously fun, silly little game. Doesn't look to have much in the way of replay value, though, so I'll probably just blow through it as quickly as possible and make a mental note to bump the sequel up a couple spots in my queue. Definitely a renter, not a buyer-- still a great game, though! +1!

Hey, looks like that puts me at +1 for the week. I come out ahead, whoopee!

On a small side note, anybody have any experience with the Wii G-Pak (http://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-G-pak-Console-Organizer-Case/dp/B000IOIXW0/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/104-0877021-0963923?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1181939791&sr=1-1), Wii Pro Gamer's Case (http://www.amazon.com/Intec-G5660-Wii-Gamers-Case/dp/B000IZK3RW/ref=acc_glance_vg_ai_4_title/104-0877021-0963923?ie=UTF8&qid=1181939791&sr=1-1), or Wii carrying cases in general? I'm getting kind of tired of carting my Wii over to people's houses in a plastic shopping bag, but every carrying case I've looked at makes me worry that it won't have enough room for the massive amounts of cords, Wiimotes, Gamecube / Classic controllers, nunchaku, etc. that inevitably need to accompany it. Having to carry that stuff in a separate bag kind of defeats the purpose of a carrying case. Thoughts, suggestions? Thanks.

[Pupmon 4.0]

Naruto: Ultimate Ninja 2 for the PS2.

[chris3116]

In June, I bought my Wii with Super Paper Mario, a Nintendo USB Connector and 7000 Wii Points.

I bought on the Virtual Console:
Super Mario Bros
Super Mario 64
Super Mario World
A Link to the Past
Wonder Boy
Punch-Out

I still have 2600 Wii Points and planning to buy more since I'll support Turbografx games.

[Captain Highwind]

a Nintendo USB Connector

Make sure you keep the receipt. There's been alot of complaints that it doesn't work.

[Mynd Hed]

Given that he's already downloaded a goodly number of VC games, I'm going to take a wild guess and assume it's working fine for him. Unless there are reports of them breaking down after working for a period of time?

[Jin Kazama]

I had a $10 off a Used X360 game coupon from Gamestop, so I grabbed Dead Rising. I've noticed that they've started to drop the price of it new, but it looks like the greatest hits price for 360 games are about $30, and I got it for $25, so I figured why not? It's one of the games I bough the system for anyway.

Got pretty lucky, too. The games complete, and the disc doesn't have a scratch on it.

[Chad Bonin]

Ran to Gamestop on my lunch, picked up P.N.03 for around four bucks.

Debated severely on getting Harvest Moon: Another Wonderful World. Didn't on the basis of knowing I'd NEVER actually play it.

[Kolbar]

Just bought The Legend of Zelda for the Wii Virtual Console, and now I know why I never play my original NES copy.

[Viper]

Today, I went to my local Gamestop and I finally bought Winx Club: Join the Club (PSP).

My Winx Club video game collection is now complete!!!:D

[Dogasu]

Today I picked up Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition. I owned the GameCube version but never got around to playing it, so I just traded it in toward the price of the Wii version.

I haven't had a chance to play it, but hopefully I'll be able to try it out later tonight.

[IanC]

Crash Bandicoot and Jumping Flash from the PSN store.

Jumping Flash is great fun - never had a chance to play it before. Cool playing it on PSP aswell (plus i can copy my save game back and forth between PSP and PS3).

[IanC]

A 1GB Memory Stick Pro Duo for my PSP and Shadow of the Colossus for PS2.

[.::Raven::.]

I bought World of Warcraft, Black, and Tony Hawk Underground 2.

[PickHut]

Street Fighter: The Movie for the Saturn.

Yup.

[Charlie]

http://www.gamestop.com/common/images/lbox/646595b.jpg
Along with a brand new computer built with my very own hands as a birthday/graduation hybrid super present.

[Chad Bonin]

China Warrior and SFIITHF for Wii.

[mammy2shoesfan]

Of course you guys know I had to pick this up.

http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n31/bigjnyc/230092b.jpg

Next is RE4 or should I save that July? This is a record month for me when it comes to buying games.

[Viper]

Last week, I finally picked up Disney's The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Undersea Adventure (DS).:anime:

[ReijiAzuma]

I've picked up Tomb Raider Anniversary, Lost Planet: Extreme Conditions, Tenchu Z, and Odin Sphere this month. Don't think I'll be getting anything else though.... I'm saving my remaining money for the AX '07.

[James Bester]

I decided to buy 2000 points today and used them on F-Zero X and The Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past today.

It's been really fun playing Link to the Past considering I pretty much rushed through it the only other time I played it. I forget how much depth. It still remains one of my favorite Zelda games to date. As for F-Zero X, I've only played it through one Novice cup and the courses felt pretty much exactly like the ones in GX, only with worse graphics(of course) and shorter distances, but I've still had fun with it.

[IanC]

Resident Evil 4:Wii Edition

Glad it came today - theres a postal worker strike tomorrow in the UK, and thats the day games come out (and as such, when they send games they try to make sure they come on day of release)

So huzah! Pretty damn goo too. Never played it before :eek:

[Vyse]

Rumble Rose for the PS2. It was on sale for $5 at GameStop.
Also at the GameStop: a Wii Points Card (like before, I'll mention my picks in the VC Thread).

The first Resistance:Fall of Man map pack.

Havent been able to play them yet becuase the servers were still down at my last check :shrug:

[Viper]

My local K-Mart was having a clearance sale on a few games. So, I decided to pick up One Piece: Grand Adventure (PS2).

[Mynd Hed]

http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/41uAsmPfz9L._AA280_.jpg

After chatting about the possible causes of Wii problems in another thread, I started to really notice just how hot it runs in WiiConnect24 mode, so I picked up one of these to keep things cool. It's an auxiliary fan that's powered by one of the Wii's rear USB ports and fits over the existing ventilation grill.

I wasn't sure if it would make a difference, but it was dirt cheap, so I figured I'd give it a shot. I've been pleased thus far: the case is much cooler to the touch, it's reasonably quiet, and it includes a pass-through USB port so I still have two free in case Nintendo ever, you know, gives me a reason to use them. (Come on, hard drive!)

...I'm kind of paranoid about heat on my electronics since I live in Tucson and lately it's been literally around 115 Fahrenheit outside during the hot part of the day. I'd probably have my comp water-cooled if I weren't even more paranoid about putting liquid inside my electronics. What can I say, it seems like too much risk given what a klutz I am.

Are there any more? Like, say a new shipment? :sweat:

[straw_hat]

Tennis (NES)
Golf (NES)
Crystalis (NES)
Ninja Kid- The original version was actually based on the GeGeGe no Kitaro series

It seems that they've dumped all the older system games into one bin now at Hollywood Video.

[Chad Bonin]

Are there any more? Like, say a new shipment? :sweat:
Eh? The game's been pretty readily available, to my knowledge.

So I bought it.

But for the longest time, I could not find it for whatever reasons (Either I'm blind, or they took them off the shelves. Either way the Gamespot sales bin is full of them now.)

[Artimus Gigan]

Yeah this current gamestop sale has some rather decent selections
