Anyone else kinda hate it when this happens? Used game thread?
I pretty much always buy pre-owned games.
>2016
>buying physical copies

I find that I like to stick with the games developed around the time I started playing. Whether or not I had played them before, I seem to enjoy them more than games today.

I tend to avoid doing it now, but when buying games for DS/3DS, or exclusives, it has to be done.
And sometimes they're just not worth the money.
Oh cool a dog thread

>$50 for a new AAA title

Man, I only buy console games on eBay nowadays.
Fuck GameStop. Even BestBuy is killing GameStop in deals.
It is a sad world we live in.
I just bought SMT IV on eBay for $9. GameStop wants $45 for the same used copy.

dog thread confirmed
Brought Lost odyseey on ebay for £4, disk 1 doesn't work. Get a £4 refund on the purchas but can keep it. Spend £2 in a used gamestore for another copy of Lost Odyssey.
>I'm up £2 and 8 disks for 1 game

This is why it pisses me off when people say PC gaming is dead. No you little shits there's always tons of good shit you haven't played yet. This year I beat the thief series and blitzkrieg 1 and 2. Didn't touch a AAA game and had a cheap blast all year.
Maybe PC gaming comes with an obsession over graphics and outdated control schemes, but I can look past that and have that rare thing called fun.

This is why I only buy AAA games if I know they have great multiplayer because I can spend over 100 hours on thatI pirate the rest
Here's one of my dogs

I shell out so much Canadian funny money for that shit. Oh wait, I forgot I stopped bothering buying AAA games.
>>322635297
Damn son that is a chill ass motherfucking dog right there.
I rarely spend more than $20 on games nowadays unless it's something I really want to play right away. For PC I just wait for steam/gmg sales and for console I always buy used from ebay/thrift/pawn shops, unless I find a game I want in the clearance isle at a department store.
>mfw I found some of my best games in the bargain bins, wish they still had them.
I mean the actual bin, not these cheap little college-dorm wire mesh shelves.
Legacy of Kain
Fallout 1/2Cow Hunter
I've been meaning to get into emulation for precisely this reason, but i'm lazy as all hell and i keep hearing stories about optimization and having to scroll through settings over and over.I just want to play crystal chronicles again dammit.
Kill me.

DLC included. I've jumped from map to map, but none of them are truly clear (there's still hearts and Skulltulas I've got to round up on even the base Adventure Map). My highest character is Link, at level 169, my lowest (that isn't DLC) is Wizro at 55. Everyone else is somewhere between those two, usually closer to the 90 ~ 100 mark.
I at least have the Divisive Plans for easy leveling. Still need to unlock the Ganondorf one, but the Twilight Map is not a friendly place for sub-level 100 characters.
