Stuff I bought in the last 2 weeks. Waited for everything to arrive so I can bunch it all up. VF 32X took forever...
All Sega classics that I didn't have yet for my collection. Except for GT5, that's a combo breaker. :mrgreen:

Alien Storm and Eswat are retardedly underappreciated. Kudos to those.

New machine incoming! Okay it's not really new. The console is used and so is Forza 5.

I admit that getting back into Forza made me buy this. I guess if it wasn't for that series I still wouldn't move on to this generation (ignoring my WiiU from mid 2013). But of course now I'm gonna grab some of the other games for this system. I'm kinda keen on getting a PS4 too now, just not sure when it's gonna happen and what to get for it.

^hope you enjoy Ground Zeroes. So many people called it a rip-off because of its length, but I freaking love that game. There's much more "game" in that one than most 60 hour games that come out. Replay value is through the roof and I'm really looking forward to Phantom Pain.

Thinking of picking this up: http://www.gog.com/promo/bundle_tower_s ... nts_140415

Played Amnesia for a bit a few years ago and was terrified, heard great things about Outlast. Should I buy it?

My haul for the day.
Been meaning to get all of the US Armored Core guides, so this is a nice little start. Just need Another Age and Nexus after this, if I'm not forgetting any. And the Project Phantasma one actually has a section for the original game as well, so that was a nice little surprise.
And I've always, always wanted to play Incredible Crisis, so I'm really excited to finally have it.

Just got these at the latest games convention I went to:

So, so happy I got King's Field on PSX since it's so freaking hard to get ahold of. It's always sold out on Amazon, I think we only got an extremely limited print run over here. The first ever From Software game to get localization and a very early game in the PSX library. Can't say I'll be too surprised if it's awesome, despite its age.

Odama was actually one I had never heard of before but when I read the back and it said it was a "Strategy/War Simulation/Pinball" game hybrid I was like, well, that's different and it was a low price point, so the risk is well worth it. Sometimes these experimental games blow me away, especially ones I had never heard of/know very little about.

Mega Man X Command Mission is one I've wanted for a while now, never been a huge fan of Mega Man, but I do like the games in the series that experiment with the formula a bit and this looked very interesting. It's also by the Breath of Fire team and director/writer, so visually it is rather similar to Breath of Fire V, I think it could have been made on the same engine. Interested to see how the battle system plays out in this one. What with a lot of the games in the series relying on action gameplay.

7 Blades was always a Konami game that eluded me. Made at a time when they could do no wrong, this was a launch PS2 game and it's basically a hack 'n slash action game set in Feudal Japan, which I haven't played any of in a long time now, so figured it was good as a time as any to pick this up, especially at such a cheap price.

PAL King's Field, that's actually King's Field II (JP) then, correct?

^^Correct correct. Same thing for the US version too; the actual KF1 never came over, so they released KF2 without a number.
Love that game. It might be ancient by now, but it's impressive how prominently that same From Software charm still shines through. Also the faceless people are creepy.

EDIT: I just ordered:

I already have Epidemic (which is actually Kileak 2) and thought it was really interesting, so I've been wanting to get the rest of the "series" for a while now. Really inventive robotic designs and a big focus on story. Enough to grab my attention.
