It's another impulse buy. I went and got Marvel versus Capcom 2 for the PS2 today which cost £19.99 pre-owned. I also traded in about 8 games just to get £13 off. Thats like £2 a game. They were mostly decent Xbox games that I had finished or just didn't play anymore but I still think I should have kept some of them. I mean, Unreal Championship 2 is good right? It's shocking what they offer you when you trade games in. They have to be worth more than a pound for games like Half-Life 2. I bet they will sell it for like £10, although Xbox games don't seem to be selling much these days. Thats probably why they're almost worthless when trading in. Damn, should've thought of that

At least the game was worth it this time. It is pretty fun to play even the computer and I've barely gotten into it. I have been playing loads of fighting games recently, I picked up Street Fighter Alpha Anthology a few weeks ago and blew the dust off of King of Fighters '02 earlier today. I even got a fighting game controller for the PS2 with the six button layout. Only cost £10.

I just wish I could play some human players...

Everyday this month I walked past my local Gamestation and noticed a cheap Dreamcast in the window, it was only £27 with 4 (crappy) games. After checking the other DC games they had in-store about 20 times, I decided to just go for it. So when I went in today the guys behind the counter were glad when I asked for the DC. They wanted to get rid of it and a huge pile of games they had in the stock room. They even dropped the price of all the games to just £1 each. I thought that I might aswell go for it and get loads now while I could for so cheap. The whole bundle included:

The Console, 2 controllers and a Memory card

Aero Wings

Charge 'N Blast (free since it was just the disc)

Crazy Taxi

Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future

Grandia II

Jet Set Radio

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver

Metropolis Street Racer

Sega Rally Championship 2

Shenmue II

Sonic Adventure (with another free copy)

Sonic Adventure 2

Soul Calibur

Star Wars Episode 1: Jedi Power Battles

Star Wars Demolition

Star Wars Episode 1: Racer

I actually intended to get a Sega Saturn but the bundle I wanted was sold just yesterday! It came with Panzer Dragoon Saga, Sonic Jam, Virtua Fighter 2 and Command & Conquer. Gutted

I just bought a DS and yes it was worth it! So far I'm very impressed, I got New Super Mario Bros with it and its great fun. Even my none-game playing family love it.

At first I kinda regretted blowing £120. Then when I got home it didn't really matter that it cost so much, it was money well spent in my honest opinion. I was never really into handhelds but this totally changed my mind about them. It even got me playing old GBA games again

Now I have to start saving for a xbox 360 all over again...
