teh "what did you buy today"-thread

Dude! Trust me, you will like Crusader of Centy. It is a good game. 

Well, I've already added this game to my completed list.  The back of the box advertises 40 hours of game play but, I did it in less than 1/4 of the time.  Overall, I liked the game.  The controls and story were cool.  The music was very good for a Genesis title.  The element of combining different powers with the animals you befriend is a neat touch.  Some of the over world sections were tough if a bunch of enemies were coming at you, due to the hit detection.  Swinging your sword to attack could be kind of funky.  I found the boss battles were too easy, even the last boss was super easy once I figured out which "special power" to use.  Overall it was a good game but, not mind blowing.  I don't think it was as good as it's current going rate suggests.  I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that it was a relatively small print run and is a decent action RPG.

Crusader of Centry is OK fun. I just remember beating it, that's about it.

it's no Shining Force...or Neutopia.

About all I have to say, at the moment.

Agreed.  Both Neutopias are awesome!  I hate to admit this but I am on an action RPG kick right now and I'm going through Ys books I&II for my first time.  The bat boss in the mine is currently kicking my ass.

 I'm stuck on Neutopia. How do you get the dungeon to appear in the water world? The old man says they buried it with powerful magic. Wasn't able to figure it out.

Most of my stuff has been pinball related.  I didn't want to bore you guys with it.  I did receive this in the mail today though!

My understanding is every PS3 game is region free.

Pachi Para 16, for when I just want to chill out and enjoy some pachinko in HD. Last of Us is actually the US version, funny thing is, even after paying shipping and customs, it was cheaper than getting it from the local store.

Ordered a Vita over the weekend and it shipped today. Does that count?

Not that it mattered too much since the JP ver. came out only a little bit before US. Or were you referring to the US ver. being locked as well so that JP players couldn't import from US?
