I just bought Matrix: Path of Neo for Xbox because it was really cheap ($10). I havn't finished the first Matrix game yet so should get back to playing it. I hope the second game is better that the first because I'm not very impressed with it.

Super Mario 2 (J) and Super Mario 3 for the Virtual console.


SMB2(J) is insanely hard, but easily one of the most fun games I've played. It's a shame that I only had a chance to play it now, even though it's 21 years old.


The wife, two friends and I played it for 11 hours straight, taking turns between lives. No walkthroughs, no cheats, nothing. We can get to 7-3, but that's as far as we've gotten.

You must've been lucky to get a copy of Mario Galaxy as they have pretty much sold out over here. I was in my local JB store just after christmas when I overheard someone ask the shop assistant if they had any instore and after she checked the computer she said they didn't have any copies and had 24 on order!

SMG isn't hard to get at all over here, at least not anymore. When it first came out it was pretty difficult.

I received 8000 wii points on top of other christmas presents, so I picked up shining force, shinobi iii, sonic 2 and gunstar heroes; also picked up mario 64. I'll likely get paper mario, mario kart and SMB2 (U). I'm patiently waiting for Super Street Fighter II for the SNES, and Samurai Shodown, whenever they get around to releasing it... erg.


Soul Calibur Legends is pretty damned fun. It's a team version of Sword of the Berserk, basically. Not many cinematic cutscenes like SotB, though.

Recently picked up DDR Universe 1,2 for 360 and Ultimate Mortal Kombat for DS.

I finally have a chance of playing DDR at home consistently without looking like a doof at the arcade.

Besides the cramped controls, UMK really shines on the DS. No slowdown and lag is pretty minimal through Nintendo WFC

Thank you Black Friday.


God of War 1, GoW2, Jak III (Saturday special at Amazon, $6 new!), Saints Row and DDR Max.


On top of that I went on a trading tear, even managed to get rid of ECW Hardcore Revolution (!?!) and picked up Mass Effect and GTA IV.
 
I bought Fallout 3 CE for 360 back in November, and decided to go very conservative on game spending after that.

I used to buy 2-3 games a month, but only play most of them for 5 minutes and keep them for later. I accumulated huge number of games over the years, so now, with crisis and all, I can use my back catalog :)

I will buy Killzone 2 in February, since it's the sole reason I bought PS3 back in 2007...

I bought a new Xbox 360 (my old one RROD'ed); it came with LEGO Indy/Kung Fu Panda.

My girlfriend bought me Fallout 3. She's currently borrowing it.:bored:
