I loved "The Last Window", but I can't really remember it. It was definitely better than "Hotel Dusk". Another Code:R was also pretty awesome. Like, one of my favourite Wii games. It's just a shame it never made it to the US. But then, you guys got Excitebots.
OT:Glee:The Concert movie, RCT3:Platinum, A USB adapter for my tablet and a USB to micro USB adapter for my phone.
I don't know how the price for those things is in your country but 30$ is about double what it would be over here. (10.49€ on amazon right now, normally they are about 16€ though)
It's the same card I've been trying to upgrade from for a couple years, it's a piece of shit, it's five years obsolete, and I had to buy one used (apparently parted out from a working machine sold at auction), but it's the only card I know for certain works in my machine without having to resurrect Avistew's graphics card thread to ask you guys for help, and it was only $30.

$20 on Amazon, but I saw it in store and didn't care. $6 an album is good either way. Our cost of living is higher, so our pay is higher(than most of the US, save parts of California and New York, etc.). Almost everything is more in Canada except video games, which are the same. We probably have the cheapest video game prices by comparison of average salary.
CD prices are high though, so I rarely buy them anymore. Impulse buy which I could've got cheaper on Amazon if I felt like waiting a week.
The last game I purchased was Family Feud for the iPhone, and the game is crap with a capital C. As a longtime fan of the American tv game show Family Feud, I approached my game download with great excitement, but was sadly disappointed when I saw how the game doesn't accept answers which aren't phrased or spelled in a specific way. For example, you might type "gym equipment" and get a strike because the game was looking for "exercise machine." Very bad design.
Even the wonderful, classic Sierra games with text parser input were more intelligent and understood way more descriptive variations than this app does.
Dead Space 3 on PS3. I didn't realize I'd set my maximum bid so high, since I ended up paying £11.50 for a boxless game, but whatever, it's done now and I can check it off my (rapidly shrinking) list of AAA games to get.
How did you figure out what to get? I haven't even heard of most of those. Are they all relatively good?
Lemme go down the list.
The A.Typical RPG - It's a quirky RPG, it was fairly cheap and I was buying other stuff, so... Black Mirror 2 & 3/Gray Matter/Lost Chronicles of Zehzura - These 4 were in a bundle. I wanted Gray Matter, Lost Chronicles looked interesting and I already own the first Black Mirror so thought 'why not get these for nothing?'. Haunted - This is by the same guys who did Jack Keane. Need I say more? Jack Haunt: On Haunting Grounds - I really don't know why I got this one. It was cheap? I dunno, I guess I just got caught up in the moment or something. So Blonde - "Wacky story from the pen of award-winning adventure writer Steve Ince ('Broken Sword')". Also, I have the Wii version, which purports to be a retelling, so... The Perfidious Petrol Station - It stars a happy hooker (and I've heard good things, I guess.)
I got an email about a discount on upgrading from Game Maker 8, and after talking to a support guy, he added my old key to the system, and I upgraded to the new system (for $9.99 plus $2 vat).
Not bad, not bad. Might have to tinker with the new system and see if I can make anything out of it!
(Should also get a Steam Key tomorrow, which I'll happly redeem into my library. (Its a shame RPG Maker VX Ace didn't give me a steam key though. (I just had to manually re-install it -_-))

Thanks. I'll probably pick up a couple of those. I think So Blonde is available for DS as well, because I remember looking into it a while back. Didn't think it looked good enough to be worth it for the price of a DS game, but this one is a lot cheaper. Didn't the developer also make that Captain Morgane something featuring a female pirate protagonist?
Ah, Captain Morgane... the So Blonde spin-off. I spent around 15 minutes with the DS version before giving up. Don't get that one - it's not ported very well, and nor would I imagine are the console versions (!).
Also, remember I said I bought Dead Space 3 sans box? Yeah, it arrived today.
Wrapped SOLELY in bubble wrap.
Seriously. Just covered in bubble wrap and thrown into an envelope. Not even a CD Sleeve, just loose. Very unhappy.
Which aren't you lying about, the fact that you bought the cake or the fact that it is your mother's birthday tomorrow?
Anyway, I 'bought' Mario Kart 7 yesterday. It cost me Hercules, Caesar (PC) and Roller Coaster Tycoon 2. It was a trade with my youngest sister, or the way I see it, the completion of a trade sequence spanning over a decade.
Oh, and I rebought this.
Because my previous copy wrecked itself in my disc drive before I had a chance to see it.

I just realise that the doctor from Trauma center is indeed a vampire hunter in his secret life.
Well, it is in fact not an 'investment', and even if it was, you might want to wait for a result before you call it a win.
Edit: wait no it's not. What am I thinking of right now???
Used £30
A nice little find. Since the regular version is about £30 online anyway.
Not bad for $30.

Woo, got my refund! Lousy piece of shit.

As for me...
A shade under £4. Stupid impulse eBay buys.
Let's see... what did I buy about half an hour ago...
You can blame those on ShinyLoot.com having a sale on adventure games.
On the eShop. Why did 999 have to be so good...
Pre Ordered.

Last bought: a Cake for my mother's birthday tomorrow. And no, I'm not lying about that. :rolleyes:

So you dodge a bullet and you decide to reload the gun?
Also just bought a guide to the Star Trek game. Because it was two quid.
