Such great games for that little money?
This is madness indeed.

I was wrong (obviously). The email I received from Amazon says that video games will be featured all day for the Gold Box.

This is a great opportunity for anyone that wanted to get into Demons Souls before Dark Souls comes out.

I thoroughly enjoyed 3DDGH as well, though a throwback to older adventure games like Zelda may not be for everyone.

3D Dot Game Heroes IS for everyone.



Everyone with a f*cking soul.

@Urethra Alfredo - The gameplay mechanics are straight out of the SNES era. Anyone that was too young to remember those games would probably think the game was boring.

I think I need to update my Joystiq iPhone app. It let me post, but it showed up as unverified.

Odin Sphere is totally worth a purchase. Allow Penny-Arcade to explain.

Not a huge Atlus fan, but this link did lead me to the $25 copy of Vanquish I've been waiting for, so thanks Joystiq!

Wasn't Trauma Team $12 before the sale started? 'Cause they're now selling it for $14, which seems... odd.

I recommend... Well, pretty much everything.

But the best "deals" in terms of savings are probably P4, Odin Sphere, Knights in the Nightmare, 3D Dot Game Heroes, Demon's Souls, and Trauma Team.

I know this phenomenon only too well.


My nephew thinks Black Ops is The Greatest Game Ever Made™.

He thought Uncharted 3 was terrible because it wasn't in first-person.

He thought Portal was a bad joke because it didn't have team-based online multiplayer.


I busted out my Super Nintendo to regale him with the killer apps of my era.

I decided to show him A Link to the Past. You know, because it's a-f*cking-mazing.


After gushing for ten minutes about how great it was, I turned the game on.

He just looked at the screen.
And then looked at me.
And looked back at the screen.

He then gave me a sympathy hug. A goddamned sympathy hug. The kind of hug you give dim-witted, well-meaning children after they tell you how they want to tickle the moon with a spoon.


It was...a sad day.

@Urethra Alfredo - I once heard a kid say "Back in the day" in relation to Halo 3, while I was playing Black Ops. "Back in the day" is a couple of years ago to some of these kids.

I feel old.

@OmegaSpartan08 Hope you didn't have any other games you wanted to play this year. Not that they aren't great, but P3 took me 80-90 hours to finish. although I was going overboard with the Persona mixing.
