teh "what did you buy today"-thread

[ceti alpha]

i got today in the mail TurboDuo... Dungeon Master: Theron's Quest, sealed but not for long 
have a few other tings coming it but i dont talk about them until there in my hands 

Nice Sparks.  I'm the same way though. I don't add games to my pcedaisakusen list until I get the package in the mail. hehe. However, I did buy a copy of Monster Lair from master nectarsis yesterday. I'm just a Bikkuriman World HuCARD away from having the entire Wonderboy series. 

I somehow forgot possibly the best title of the Wonderboy series: Dragon's Curse.  :oops: So, I'm a Bukkuriman World and a Dragon's Curse HuCARD away from the complete Wonderboy set.

heh I add a title to my daisakusen list immediately after paying.  In the rare instances when I didn't receive the game, or in which the game didn't work- I immediately purchased another so as to not forfeit the title from my daisakusen list 

I have on the way two avenue six pads (finally!), Street Fighter II and Fatal Fury II...

I envy your guys for getting lots. I always lose my auctions to dumb greedy reseller....

A few days ago I bought Nat's loose AMG game for the PC-FX.
Yesterday I bought Medieval II: Total War Gold Edition which comes with the expansion built in.
I love Rome to death and Medieval II doesn't dissapoint.  It's everything great about Rome, only more refined.  I started my first game playing the Frenchies and so far I have been giving the rebels hell.  I allied with Spain only so I wouldn't have to guard my southern boarder.  This let me turn those castles into towns to make more income.

Good times!

Today I bought 3 3DO games Shockwave, the expansion for Shockwave and Shockwave II.  My understanding is that they are rail shooters, pls god let them be rail shooters.  The come with the origional large cardboard boxes too.  Only $4.99 each on ebay

[td741]

The Shockwaves aren't *exactly* rail shooters...

You have full (horizontal 360 degree) control over your fighter but you have a very limited area to move in.  If you exit the allotted area, you sustain damage.  I think they kept the same thing for Shockwave 2, but I'm not 100% sure.

I've heard they use pre-rendered video for the ingame backgrounds, so it is probably very rail shooter like then, just not exactly one?

[Joe Redifer]

Shockwave uses R-E-A-L polygon graphics and you can turn and go whichever direction you want.  I bought the first game and didn't care for it much.  If you want a rails game get Microcosm or some other piece of junk like that.
