"Alan Wake" for the x360, as well as "Shining in the Darkness", from the "Megadrive Ultimate Genesis" collection,
also for Microsoft's monster, eat my game time. ...Do I have "game time"? Nerd, nerd, nerd, nerd, nerd.

Megadrive Collection is awesome! And Shining is really a quite fun dungeon romp, even if the main character looks like a tosspot. Love the dwarf from Golden Axe making a cameo.

I am kind of stuck right now. :(

For the moment, I am indeed switching to Phantasy Star, and looking how it goes. Much-famed RPGs, but I still fail to see their charm.

Also, gaaaaaaaaah, the big issue with 90s RPGs is how slow the people on the screen move.

Isn't there a similar SNES collection out there? I miss Secret of Mana... :(

Mang, I'd sell my grandmother for a SNES collection. But unfortunately as Nintendo is in the business of making money thru WiiStore and DS rereleases, I don't think anything like this will surface (and NEVER on non-Nintendo consoles).

Lately I've been playing the AGS remake of Quest For Glory 2 (my favourite installment of the series anyway). Middle East is so vastly underutilized in fantasy it hurts. I think I'll do Al-Qadim: The Genies Curse next, never got far in that back in the day...

Just so you know, the two pulp themed Ultima Spin-Offs Savage Empire (lost world) and Martian Dreams (Verne scifi) are legalfree on Good Old Games:

Mass Effect anyone?

I got stuck in the middle of the first one, but I have the second one lying around waiting for me. I will probably wait with buying the third one until it drops in price. :)

I have Mass Effect 2, but my to play pile has been way too big for me to dig into that. Might pick up the third one too, as there is a video game sale going on at the moment in most of the game store chains. The redhead on the cover is quite cute :)

Bought me a new Megadrive (Genesis for you American folks)! :D Not an original Sega one, but one of these licensed re-releases. It's tiny as heck, about the size of a CD box and maybe two inches high at the tallest. Two controllers, 15 in built games (none of them I had earlier - Golden Axe! and stuff) and it plays all carts I have :)

D&D Warriors of Eternal Sun and Shadowrun! :D

I'm a happy camper.
