A few years back, dusting off the GameStop bargain bin with old gen games, I found a sealed copy of Zone of the Enders and a used copy of Metal Gear Rising.
I had never heard of the first, and I was only mildly aware of the second one (it was before people started memeing it into mainstream status).
Great buy! Congrats. One concern form me is always ports and battery life. Of course when playing you’ll be plugged in but for mobility I’m always worried about it.
Yesterday I forgot to turn on the switch and played on battery without knowing for 30 minutes. Went from 100-60. The game was old enough so there weren’t any performance difference so didn’t notice
The original Mount & Blade at an office max, I think? 5 dollar bargain bin game. I remember being blown away by the army combat in that game. The first one was so barebones but I still love that janky mess.
I’m not trying to be Mr Snappy but I think I paid a dollar for it too, and I feel I overpaid by about 99.9 cents
Edit: I can see why other people like it, but I found it to be utterly monotonous and just shallow, wanton destruction which didn’t appeal to me
Edit 2: I should be fair to the game, it was technically very well done (ignoring modern crash problems), the destruction was pretty cool, I thought the graphics were neat, and it offered was a variety of things that many people would enjoy. For my taste there not a enough world design, too much copy/paste, and the story/missions were perfunctory. For me, it had many good ingredients, but it didn’t make a stew. It comes down to personal taste.
NGL, I bought a PS5 on the strength of the first two Spider Man games alone. Been waiting for this game for a long time. Glad to see the reviews are solid!
I don't remember the price, and Mom almost certainly paid for it, but Faxanadu. First game I ever beat, got an emulator and sought it out on a rom when those came out, and most recently played it at an arcade that had a bunch of older games loaded onto a "TV" with real controllers. Hadn't used that kind of controller for a long time.
If my memory is right, after seeing how good sonic was on the megadrive,I was surprised with Jazz on my PC. It was so good and showed me that I didn’t need a console.
I distinctly remember in my city various computer stores had kiosks which were basically coin op PCs and for $1 you could transfer shareware onto a floppy disk. You were still responsible for paying for the full license if you liked it.
Well this is more of a digital bin but I picked up Brother a tale of two sons on sale ages ago because the art looked cool. Hands down one of the best games I ever played, made me sob like a bitch.
