The problem with being a newbie
The problem I see with the fact that I started console gaming about a year ago (after the Nintendo 64 days), is that my collection is missing so many of the classics. I am finding myself at EB Games every few days looking for old titles that I want in my collection.
This week, I bought/found Ace Combat 4, Panzer Dragoon, Ico, Halo (never owned a copy), Wave Raze (thanks hammah) and Space Channel 5. To top it all off, I finally bit the bullet and ordered my own copy of REZ. John and I spent a night playing this recently, and I kept leveling down. It pissed me off so much, that I laid down the $80 for a used copy. You heard me right. A new copy cost upwards of $145, but you can get a lightly played copy for the grand price of $80. I mean, I love Mizuguchi as much as the next chick, and am the first one holding out hopes that he is secretly working on REZ 2 for Eye Toy, but $80 for a used game? Come on.
New games this week (within the last year or so): FarCry, Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow (LOVE THIS GAME, LOVE IT) and Viewtiful Joe. Also picked up a copy of Primal, but that does not fall into the category of "classic" or new, so I will just throw it in last.
I also have a "classic pack" I have yet to start playing, more on that later.
