PC: Tomb Raider X360: Halolz 4 MP (free live weekend, yay -.-) 3DS: Gathering dust for the time being
Also need to push myself towards wrapping up FF XIII-2 (X360). Only then can I start playing Alone In The Dark (PC), which I got from my girlfriend. Oh, and lots and lots of non-gaming stuff as well
Mario Kart 7 for 20 quid -> sold Also, am I the only one who finds the conversion between pounds and euros a bit strange? You can switch between the regions but still...
Ultimate^2 mode everyone? I don't think it's going to be much playable without a resistive touch screen + stylus. Even capacitive styli aren't all that great for this kind of game.
"Videogames are violent" quote, here we go again. No, seriously, I think this is just a load of bollocks. I thought Wii U had a parental control system built-in... Same deal with the 3DS. And I don't think keeping 18+ from accessing content during specific hours is going to help. It's proper censorship that. But yeah, there are not many M-rated games specific to Nintendo platforms, so I'll just stick to the PC with all my violent and gory needs. Kthxbai!
@Klinny Well, neither XBLA nor Steam have to adhere to any stupid rules.

My personal wishlist: 5% - frequent "Steam-ish" sales 25% - option to pay directly by credit card (NSMB2 DLC already allows that mind you) 40% - GBA titles available for download 75% - Picross E - Club Nintendo Edition available for download (already available in Japan)
@buzzn Are you targetting Sleeping Dogs? It's a really good game, you know. Much better than NSMB2 in my opinion. And come to think of it, I don't think GTA 5 will manage to surpass it either.
While I am going to Gamescom regardless of whether Nintendo is or isn't there, they should think of other excuse than running "sampling events throughout Germany". There are gamers like me who visit Gamescom from abroad, you know.
Hah, it's even more expensive than the retail version. Sorry Nintendo, but I think I'll pass on this one. I only buy games digitally if they are way cheaper than their retail counterparts. I'll take that golden box with a cartridge, manual, new game smell and a free coin instead.
Availability confirmed for Czech Republic. But then again, I've got my region locale set to the UK as the only apps available in eShop over here are the free ones and that doesn't even include demos and trailers.
What bums me up is that I cannot use Nintendo Video/Eurosport apps without fiddling with region settings every time. Gave up on these srsly.
Wow, that sure is a lot of Borderlands action. Finished my co-op playthrough earlier this week (PC), now we're doing the 'The Secret Armory of General Knoxx' DLC.
In other news, I finally bought a 3DS (the hot Zelda LE one, yum) - I bit the bullet and decided the XL is way too huge to carry around - wasn't a huge fan of the DSi XL either. So my game list prior to Steam sales looks like this:
3DS: TLoZ: OoT 3D + Super Mario 3D Land 360: Halo CE: Anniversary + Final Fantasy XIII PC: Dead Space + Dota 2

Well, I actually bought a cart of Pilotwings a few weeks back for 300 CZK, which translates to roughly £10. Can't complain 'bout that
