Well, since Metroid: Other M is delayed until August, we have...

#1. Super Mario Galaxy 2 (five votes)
#2. Sin & Punishment Star Successor (two votes)
#3. Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (one vote)

For all those out there that didn't see the original post, I'm going to have about $100 by the end of June and I'm deciding to get two games. The games I am thinking about getting are the ones in the above list and Blur, Split/Second, and Lost Planet 2.

@V8 I'd go with SMG 2 and Lost Planet 2, personally.

Hey guys. I have $120 and I'm wondering what to do with it. I am getting Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars, but that's just $55 (Tax included). What else would you suggest getting with Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars?

This still needs an answer other then RandomWiiPlayer.

So, I'm presuming that Jak & Daxter: The Precursor Legacy and along with it Dark Cloud is a good GameStop purchase? Unless you recommend something other than Dark Cloud.

I'd say that would be just dandy, personally.

Just looked at a picture of the "real" Dark Genie. He looks too demonic for our Christian family standards, he also would scare me if he was on a big screen (which he will be). So, can anybody recommend me some good games that start of a price range from $4.99 USD to a max of $9.99 USD that are for the PS2 and that can be found at GameStop (Mainly pay attention to the GameStop part, it doesn't have to be a PS2 game ).

P.S. For the record, I do have extra money. I could maybe spare a few bucks extra for a game or games.

What's a good, old-school, non-TG16/CD shmup? It does not have to be available on the VC

@BobberyFan69

How about Devil May Cry?

@Mick - Super Earth Defense Force for the SNES is a decent old-school, non-PC-Engine shmup not available on the VC; if you can tolerate the graphic slowdown, that is.

I can't, but thanks for reminding me. I actually have that one...somewhere.

To young or it and probably will never play it anyways.

Anything else?

O_o

Is there anyway we can narrow that down a bit?

-BF98

@BF98 I personally vote for Burnout 3 on that ginormous list. It's a bad@$$ racing game that involves wrecking the other drivers' cars. It's the closest thing to perfection of breaking expensive things in video games. Trust me, you'll be glad you bought it.

@BF98

Well, here's one way:

Step 1: Take out the ones you already have. You don't need doubles.

Step 2: Take out the ones you don't recognize and don't seem immediately appealing. No point in wasting your limited funds on a game you know nothing about.

Step 3: Out of the remainder, which ones seem most appealing to you? Try to narrow it down as much as you can, to a top 10 or lower.

Step 4: Here's the hard part - now is when you have to decide which game is more important to get at the moment. Which one is hardest to find? Is it on sale? will it still be here next time? Which one is cheaper? Will it be cheaper later? Is it in good condition? Which one do I want to play NOW? Is it part of a series I already have? Which one is most unique? Do I know anybody else who has this game? Did they like it or not like it, and why?
If you need help, feel free to ask here.

This is just the method I usually use to make my decisions, and it always works for me. Of course, your results may vary, and whether or not you want to use it is up to you.

You could also Go to the store and go with your gut, Ask an employee for recommendations, or just be a robot and buy what we tell you to. Either way, the choice is yours. Just remember: no one knows more about what games you'll like more than you. Don't doubt yourself or your decisions. Just get what you want and enjoy it. So long as you enjoy it, it'll be worth it.

@Mickeymac I might use that last method for the upcoming games in the next two months. Thanks for sharing that technique!

Your welcome...wait, do you mean Step 4 or the robot part? I mean, either one'll work...I'm just curious.

@Mickeymac The fourth step. I'm pretty sure I don't want to be a robot.

Okay, makes sense. Again, I hope it helps.

I want a good puzzle game for the WiiWare that's 800 points or under. Should I buy:
Rubiks: Rush
The Magic Obelisk
or
Art of Balance

Are there any other good puzzlers?
