One event leads to another!

Most of you know that I’ve recently purchased few new movies and an old game Bad Boy II. But unfortunately I couldn’t play it. The game is not supported by Win7. So, instead of reinstalling my previous OS (WinXP) I went to the store to change the game. Now here’s what has happened today.

 

Since the game was only $5, the shopper didn’t allow me to pick any new game. So, I was wondering standing in front of the old games racks and trying to decide which one to pick. Suddenly a bunch of guys from my college showed up and they were to sell their old games. I had around $40 in my pocket and I thought why not give it a go. So, here is what I got myself today. [This purchases cost serious bargaining skill which I think was pretty good in the end :P ]

 

NBA 2k10 : I promised @King that I will play it if I get the chance. So, when I saw the game, I couldn’t help but take it. $10 is what it cost me. I’ve played it for few times now. The game has lots of features in it. Mostly spent my time at the practice so far and two quick games. I can’t find a way to time the shots from distance. There is a meter of 5 scales which needs to be perfected, but I can’t figure out how it works. During the practice, it says I’ve shot earlier and it was bad but I still score and sometime I don’t score but it says perfect shot. lol. I seriously need to figure out how it works.

 

SplinterCell Double Agent : After playing SplinterCell Conviction, I though why not give it a go. I read one review, probably from King which said it wasn’t bad. I’ve played it for 10 mins so far, where I had to investigate a biothermal plant. The game looked horrible to be honest compared to Conviction. I’m having this feeling that @7 went to dust.

 

Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands : It’s relatively a new game and since they came to sell it then there must be something wrong with the game. They were asking $20 for it and I finally managed them on $8. Since I’ve played all the sequel of PoP games, I thought of playing it too. Haven’t installed it yet, but I’m not expecting too much out of it.

 

Mirror’s Edge : @azn_pride recommended this game and I wanted to try it. Let’s see how good the games it. If bad, Gabby is definitely paying me my $9 back :P

 

Sniper Ghost Warrior : @FetusZero will be liable if the game is bad. Paid only @3 for it. lol. Don’t call me cheap but I wasn’t really convinced what those guys were saying about it. because I pretty much remember what Fetus wrote about it. The guy who was selling it; called me a jerk when I said $2 in response to his $15. But I take anything during my bargain. Because all it matters what I pay in the end ;)

 

2010 FIFA World Cup : Never wanted to play it. WC games are not always good. But @canana wrote a preview on it and it didn’t sound bad. So if the game isn’t really good, canana owes me $5 :P

 

And, finally Overload 2 : I always wanted to play it but never found it at the old games rack. Today I did and replaced it with Bad Boys II :D

 

In the end, I end up with 6 new games (one replacement) with only $35 and $5 for the subway. It was a pretty good day in the end :D
