What'd You Get? - Not The Usual Edition
NihonTiger90 | 9:28 PM on 06.15.2009 18 comments


Monday's here, and that can only mean one thing: What'd You Get? is back! Yes, folks, the C-Blog feature (that should probably be on the front page in some shape or form *hinthintnudgenudge* :p) has returned so you can tell us all the cool things you've picked up this past week. And maybe if you want, what you plan on buying this week. Even if it's Let's Catch. Go on, we won't judge you, and I am totally not lying.


Honestly.


Seriously.


Maybe.


Well, in a slight break from the norm: I bought something. Yes. I had a bunch of extra Microsoft Points sitting around that I had no idea what to do with, so I bought a game with them, just a little title:



And it's sooooooo much fun. :3 Plus, it doesn't delete my saves like my copy of Gunstar Super Heroes randomly does. Yay!

So Gunstar Heroes on Xbox Live Arcade was it for me this week, meaning I can switch out the game I have stuck in my DS' GBA slot finally. What'd all of you get, Dtoid Nation?



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

I got Gunstar Heroes off of PSN, yay! I also got in a sanwa joystick and seimitsu buttons to switch into my SF4 Fightstick(mmm, feels so goooooood!), all I need is the art that I'm getting printed at mamemarquees.com and it will be complete and glorious! I'm still getting beat by yojimbo, grumble grumble.

Mine isn't a game, but it's game related. I got a mint in-box colored variant figure of the Cyborg Ninja from McFarlane's Metal Gear Solid series.

I decided it was finally time to start playing through some of my backlog. Also, my backlog consists of what most people consider absolute videogame canon.

So yeahs, I picked up MGS2, played the fuck out of that, and then went back to the store the next day and picked up MGS3. I played that for about an hour before it stopped working. Yeah, that's right, it stopped fucking working - Right when I was starting to enjoy it too. So anyways, I took it into the store and had them resurface the CD. This seemed to fix it, but alas, it just made the game be able to play for an hour longer than last.

So took it back and traded it in for two more games off of the backlog : The original Devil May Cry (Excellent!) and Devil May Cry 3:Special Edition (Even more awesome!!).

I'm gonna go play some DMC3 right now, I'm fucking loving it.

Zippyduda's Destructoid Blog
Don't know why my post got added twice. It was done at college though on shitty IE so I'm not surprised.

Bulkmailer what's your PSN btw? Have to play LBP sometime together :) I'm guessing just your Dtoid name :)

@Zippyduda

Unfortunately I don't have an internet connection at home. Soon though, soon I shall be playing with everybody here.
Celdurant's Destructoid Blog
I also picked up FFXII (from my brother actually), and spent possibly 4 hours in a dungeon. However it was all for the sake of the grind. I kinda love how I don't have to pay attention to my characters, since they take care of themselves so well .-.

As for purchases, Eternal Sonata for the PS3 became mine~

 about me




Oh, hi there. Didn’t see you enter. Anyways, welcome to my humble little blog. For those of you not familiar with who I am, the name’s Brian. I’m 23 years old and hail from Lorain, Ohio, just outside of Cleveland. I work at the local newspaper here as a copy editor, putting my four long years of college to actual use. Kind of. I think.

For those of you who might recognize me from elsewhere, I work as Assistant Gaming Editor over at Blogcritics Gaming and as Features Editor over at Tomopop. It's a lot of work, but it's worth it because I get to do a lot of cool shit with a lot of cool people.

I've been gaming since the relatively young age of around 3 and I've played plenty of games, both good and bad. I'm continuously expanding my gaming collection, which has become more of an archive in recent years as I'm focusing on collecting older, less well-known titles. You'd honestly be surprised on what people are missing out on in bargain bins...



Other than gaming, I love anime, manga, sports, movies, TV, and a whole lot more. I also happen to have something of a legendary love for Cammy, to the point that I am the site's unofficial official Cammy fanboy. And yes, I do play as her in Street Fighter and do so quite well, too.

Also, I am Chad Concelmo's B.F.F., my prize for coming in first in The Great Retro Quiz .18 - ActRaiser. Accept no substitutes. Not even Aerox.
