Mass Effect 1 for PC, for a total of 0.00 Ah, you use the origins code? I should really check that out and see if I need anymore Sims 2 add-ons.

I know I'm late to the party (if you can even really call it such), but I picked up Resistance 3 last Thursday. I owned both Resistance 1 & 2 for PS3, and figured why not? Got a discount on it since I bought the Avengers Blu ray on the release date. So far, it's been kinda fun, but my expectations were extremely low after completing Resistance 2.

Picked up the Season Pass for Borderlands 2 and started playing the first DLC. Good so far, but the lack of level cap raise is disappointing.

Gonna be getting Doom 3: BFG Edition, next week. Got it, love it, currently playing the fuck outta Doom 1. Glorious nostalgia.  Bought NFL Street 3 and Tourist Trophy for PS2 yesterday for 99¢ each, brand new.  Haven't played either yet, but the price was right.

It's great and all, but one thing that really bothers me is lack of server lists in favour of matchmaking. I have having to be randomly assigned to an online game when I want to choose my own. The closest thing to one is the one which lets you jump into your friend's game. And they stupidly done the same thing for the PS3 ports of Doom and Doom II. Makes me want to set back up my 360 since at least you can choose and host your own game on the 360 versions.

Picked up Minecraft after my friend recommended it. To be honest, I didn't really look into the game and it's a lot more fun than I figured.

Fallout 3 GOTY Edition for the 360. (Amazon has it for $9.99 on the 360, $12.99 on PS3. It includes all the DLC. It's part of a Bethesda Sale. Most of the other deals aren't that great, tbh.). Sold my standard copy for $6 to Best Buy.
Tony Hawk Pro Skater for the GBC (christmas gift for my nephew)
Hardball III for the SNES. (it was like $2 something with free shipping. I've been getting tired of MLBPA)

Bought Paper Mario Sticker Star for the 3DS yesterday.
An interesting title, so far. Seems to shirk a lot of the common RPG elements while embracing them at the same time. For example, sure you can do turn based battles, but, you don't level up from them, so, why bother getting into fights? Nor are any of your actions taken for granted; there is no automatic "fight" command, like the jump or hammer were in previous Paper Mario titles... every action Mario takes is dictated by the use of a sticker; if you want to do a jump attack, you have to use a jump sticker. It's like using items on every turn. It also embraces a sort of Super Mario World-type mechanic with a world map and stages with alternate exits in some of them, which is a different approach for a Paper Mario game.
Two of the major problems I have with the game include the puzzles that require a lot of indirect reasoning to figure out and oversized boss battles which don't exactly jive with Mario's arsenal, by which I mean that the second boss has 300 HP while your basic attacks can do maybe 4-8 HP damage a turn. The way to beat the bosses effectively is to determine what special one-time sticker to use in order to cut down their HP quickly. You essentially have to lose the fight the first time in order to figure out what special sticker to use, and in some cases, go back and get it. It's a very broken way to do boss battles and I don't really care for it at all.
I'd say maybe 6.5 out of 10 based on what I've played so far. I think they were putting all their eggs in this sticker gimmick basket, hoping that it would be strong enough to carry the game on its own, but, it's ultimately not. For everything good the game does, it seems to do just as much bad.

Currently downloading NiGHTS Into Dreams on PSN. I'm a happy boy. Now if they'd just release more Sega Saturn games ...
Jed Shaffer ~Shining The Holy Ark. Release that, Sega, and I'll overpay on GP's.

Burnout Paradise Complete DLC bundle for $20.
Now my biggest problem with the game is that when I turn it on I have to endlessly debate what car I want to drive..there are just so many.
Only thing that confused me, Timesaver pack(which I only downloaded since I'd beaten the game before and had started over because I had reached the point where I couldn't win any more races), didn't work with Big Surf Island, still it's not so bad, just means I still have something to work at unlocking.

I just got Max Payne 3.
I always liked the first two, and figured that this one would be fun. It was alright, I guess. I thought as I was playing it that it seemed sort of outdated with some of the mechanics (Going from what is basically just different rooms one by one killing everyone in that room before you move on) but it was a good time.
The story is what I liked the most about it, but am regretting spending $40.00 on it because I doubt I will ever play it again after beating it, and the online multiplayer just feels like it is tacked on as an afterthought.
