Whoo! GuarHer! What else does one possibly need to buy other than an awesome 2D beat-em-up hack-and-slash action-RPG from the masters that were Treasure?

What are you buying this week?

[USMC Kato]

Forza 4, maybe Ace Combat

[Reemul]

Forza 4 LE, Renegade Ops,

[Clanwolfer]

Forza 4 and the Humble Bundle (expires in 2 days!).

[EddieA]

Rune Factory : Tides of Destiny had an early release last Friday, so I already bought that for PS3.

Rune Factory : Tides of Destiny had an early release last Friday, so I already bought that for PS3.

How is it?  I liked the last one that was on the Wii, but my save got borked, and I didn't want to start over.

[wonderpug]

Sorry, Forza, not getting you until after the release deluge. 

[Caine]

Renegade ops by way of mr.  awesome, engine no 9.  
Guardian Heroes is likely.  Also going to look for reviews on aliens infestation as a 2d aliens game sounds kickass.

[Bullwinkle]

I was going to skip Forza, but I really liked the demo.  Plus that wheel thing looks interesting, and I can get it for $35 at BB with the game.  So, Forza 4.

Also, probably Ace Combat.  I liked that demo, too.

And probably Rune Factory.

And Aliens Infestation for the DS is getting good reviews.

If the new Wipeout game is any good, that could be fun.  Does it use avatars?

[Larraque]

Kinectimals: Now with Bears

Kinectimals can smell the menstruation?

In for Heroes 6.

[Purge]

I'd take Forza 4 (got a preorder) but that has to be tempered with finances. Ick.

Perhaps some DLC (ITSP or Crimson Alliance).

[MonkeyFinger]

More than likely Might & Magic: Heroes VI

[Gratch]

Maybe HOMM VI, depending on reviews

[CeeKay]

Orcs must Die on my PC!

[Isgrimnur]

Nothing this week.  I've got Rage to play until Batman shows up next week.

[EngineNo9]

Hmm, I seem to have pre-purchased my way into more games at once than expected: Forza 4 Limited Edition, Renegade Ops and Orcs Must Die.

[kathode]

Apparently being given this "now with bears" game.  Also Forza 4.  No time to play even Rage which I bought last week.  Dark Souls Dark Souls Dark Souls.

[USMC Kato]

Also maybe Guardian Heroes, that was my favorite game back in my Saturn days

[jztemple2]

Forza Motorsport 4 LCE

[KC]

I just bot Avadon for the Ipad.

[The Grue]

I was thinking about buying Forza 4, but I am so obsessed with Dark Souls, that I am not sure if I need to bother buying another game for the rest of the year.  I had a list of must-haves and now I am wondering if I need any of them (that includes gems like Skyrim and the new Zelda).

[metallicorphan]

there are a few games i want but i will be putting them on the backburner ..my next purchase will be next weeks Bats 2

[Big Jake]

Forza 4

Want to get Homm6, but gaming overload and Dark Souls are making me wait.
OH, and 'Michael Phelps:Push the Limit"!  I'm gonna "Push The Limit"...whatever the hell that means.  Someone greenlighted this game?  Why do you do, hold X to swim?  Some things weren't meant to be the sole focus of a game: swimming is probably really high on that list.  (And yes, make whatever jokes about 'really high' and Phelps that you want)

[Sparhawk]

Dark souls has me in her grips; but. I will pick up forza 4 right then I'm done with it.

[EddieA]

Gaze upon it, and quake in fear.

[JayDee]

Rune Factory : Tides of Destiny had an early release last Friday, so I already bought that for PS3.

How is it?  I liked the last one that was on the Wii, but my save got borked, and I didn't want to start over.

I've only put about 3 hours in, so there's still a lot I haven't seen, but I'm enjoying it so far.  I've played some Harvest Moon and Rune Factory games in the past, but I always got bogged down by the more tedious tasks.  This game looks to remove a lot of that.  There's a ton of stuff to do, but the game makes it very easy and quick to get around to the different places you need to go and find the people you need to talk to.  I haven't gotten to the farming part yet, but you can plant lots of seeds at once and the monsters actually grow the crops for you.  From what I've read, this streamlines some of the aspects of the series, but for me at least, that's a good thing.

That is good news.  The farming felt like a chore for me in Harvest Moon, but I gave Rune Factory a try on the Wii one time, and I really liked it.  Then my progress got deleted when I fixed my Wii.
