I'd like to have a place where users can talk about the games on their Wish List, possibly get feedback and/or opinions from others on anticipated titles, and also to have a place to showcases purchases once/if they are made.



STATUS: Purchased. Removed from Wish List.


My Exposure to this Game:

I caught wind of this game while at a friend's house one afternoon randomly. He had downloaded the free demo off of the PSN Store and was just getting his feet wet when I had arrived. The graphical style and obscure colors/textures/patterns immediately made this stand out to me. At first glance, it seems to be very God of War-ish, but that's not really a negative to me, so the game's approach seemed familiar enough. It seems to have a little bit of everything, which I tend to favor. I really enjoy it when a certain game type breaks the mold and incorporates a lot of different things that the player might not expect.

I've come across this title only twice now, both times passing it up because I needed new controllers instead. In hindsight, I should have just got the game the first time I saw it because I ended up trading those crappy controllers (3rd party Xbox One & 360) back in to put towards another decent one (official Sony Dual Shock 3). If it's still there at this point, then I guess that's fate (aka my obsessive collecting impulses) telling me to pick it up.


What's your most recently coveted game?

There's still quite a few games on my want list (still need to update that for this site) but for right now I'm mainly focusing on the Xbox 360. I'm just trying to buy all of the exclusives that interest me for that system. My most recent pick ups are Phantasy Star Universe, Crash of The Titans, and Earth Defense Force 2017.

Also, that's why I usually never buy 3rd party controllers. They usually tend to suck lol.

stepmack35:

Phantasy Star Universe is one that peaked my interest some time ago. From my first impression it seems like a rather large time sink, so I'm going to wait till I finish up a few other short games before I consider what JRPG to tackle next. There doesn't seem to be that many on the Xbox 360, so it's nice to see the value in the few ones they have.

Also, that's why I usually never buy 3rd party controllers. They usually tend to suck lol.

I'm usually the same way, but honestly the brand wasn't all that bad. Both were made by Power A. They could have held up for awhile, but i just favor the design of Sony controllers and I missed them lol.

I have El Shaddai for the PS3 AX3L :) I haven't finished it yet but what I did play I really enjoyed. It's combines a lot of different things to make a unique product...I actually was really enjoying the story too and need to see how it ends.

Don't spoil it for me then! xD.

I'm in love with the obscure art style and interesting graphics!

Best of luck to you with finishing it!

Unfortunately, fulfilling my wish list is on hold for the next few months as I start to move into my new house. It's probably for the best since I have a ridiculous amount of games to play anyways. El Shaddai is also on my list of games to play. My wife gave it to me for Christmas a few years ago and I've never really dug into it. Hmm...I think I smell a bounty coming on...

Here are three more games I've got my eye on. Tales of Graces f, Tales of Hearts R, and Catherine.

They all look fantastic but never seem to drop in price. I'm especially drawn to Tales of Hearts R because it's on Vita and I don't have any lengthy RPGs in my collection yet.
