What are you buying this week?

[metallicorphan]

nothing this week

[jersoc]

Maybe the arrival. From what I read, i'm not holding my breath of anything story related. they totally are just making it up against the established lore now.

[Jarrodhk]

Dynasty Warriors 7 (360), the time to once again conquer all of China (again and again) has arrived!

[EddieA]

The Legend of Heroes : Trails In The Sky and Mass Effect 2 : The Arrival for me.  I'll also be trying out Free Realms on PS3. 

[jztemple2]

Shift 2 Unleashed: Need for Speed for the 360.

[CeeKay]

I'll get Mass Effect Arrival eventually, and I may taker a look at Secret Files for the DS.

[msteelers]

The Arrival for sure at some point, although I might hold off on it depending on whether or not I want to leave Dragon Age 2 for a couple of hours.

[Bullwinkle]

Probably Tiger PGA and maybe Shift 2.  Both for the 360.  Sorry, 360=xbox 360.

[Devil]

Tiger for PS3

[Bullwinkle]

No new WiiWare this week. 

Also, nothing for the 3DS, because we have to wait until May to even have the service available.

Wow.  Pretty boring week.

[Beer Goggles]

Waiting for the epic mega super deluxe Game of the Year Edition of Mass Effect 2.  Nothing this week.

[Soulchilde]

Arrival someday

[The Grue]

I want 3rd Birthday for PSP, but just got the 3DS and a bunch of games, so I will hold off.

[PR_GMR]

Nada for me this week. Wanted to pick up a 3DS upon launch but I've a cash flow at the moment; that purchase will have to wait until early this summer, perhap when the new 'Kid Icarus' releases (it wasn't a launch game? UGH!)

[ras752000]

Both for the 360.  Sorry, 360=xbox 360.

Lol
I may get tiger for ps3 depending on reviews.
And not a purchase but will be using my kz3 key for the socom beta.

[Greggy_D]

In for Tiger

[Larraque]

Looks like I'll be making a foray into Tiger Woods 12. Thanks Gamefly! 

[Isgrimnur]

With a $25 credit from Amazon, I just ordered Tiger Woods for 360.  I won't get it release day given the late order, but that's fine by me. 

[Purge]

In for Tiger

That's what *she* said.

[msteelers]

I finally got a check for some contract work I did a few months ago. Most of it is going into savings and fixing my car, but I managed to be able to part with some of it to buy the Mustang Pro Guitar for Rock Band 3. I used a $20 credit I had through Amazon to have it delivered to my door tomorrow for just about $100. I love Amazon. Using a $20 credit and getting next day delivery was still cheaper than ordering through Best Buy's website with a $50 gc and standard shipping.

[Gratch]

Picked up Final Fantasy III for the iPhone.  This one didn't click with me on DS for some reason, but I've been loving it so far on iPhone.  A very well done port.

[EngineNo9]

NFS: Shift 2 Unleashed for PC, and will probably try Free Realms on the PS3 (but not buy it since it is free )

I'd be very surprised if WRC: FIA World Rally Championship actually comes out this week.  Since it released in Europe last year it has been continually pushed back or given bogus dates for the US.

[Big Jake]

3rd Birthday

[coopasonic]

360:
NASCAR 2011: The Game
Shift 2 Unleashed: Need for Speed
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12: The Masters
WRC: FIA World Rally Championship
WWE All Stars
Mass Effect 2: Arrival (XBLA)

These are all on my maybe list... Shift 2 is the only must have and they are all going on the goozex request queue for when they are cheap in a year or two.

[Travis]

I bought some used games I haven't played and were cheap.  The new Prince of Persia, the first Condemned (I had played a level or two when the 360 first came out), and Backyard Football 2010.

[wonderpug]

Just bought Uncharted 2 to see what all the fuss is about, even though the first game only somewhat enthralled me (and I didn't finish it).  Teggy told me at PAX that Uncharted 2 was his favoritest favorite thing in the whole wide world.

[Purge]

... I didn't love it enough to get past the first two hours.

[Azhag]

Nothing, thought WWE All Stars is a maybe down the line (or goozex).

[Isgrimnur]

Add a new suit to the mix.  I'm no longer fat enough for my old one to fit, and I needed one for my job interview on Wednesday.

[Harkonis]

Grats Had, I'm apparently going the other direction and none of my pants fit. lol

[Isgrimnur]

Thanks.  When I moved to Dallas at the start of 2008, I weighed 285 pounds.  As of this morning, I'm at 229.

[wonderpug]

That's amazing!  Way to go.

[mytocles]

Good job, Izzy!   

The only thing new that looks even vaguely interesting is Secret Files, but I'm still finishing FO: NV while Dragon Age 2 stares at me from the ""next up" collection.  I doubt SF will survive the next several weeks of releases; that type of game mostly just makes me feel stupid now...  I prefer denial!

 

[Greggy_D]

I also just ordered Nascar 2011 from Amazon since they are giving a $25 credit (just like the Tiger deal).
