Given that Game Podunk is a community of people who love video games, it makes sense to have a spot where we all list off our recent video game purchases. There's no format you have to follow and if you don't want to share how much you spent on the titles, that's fine.

I went to GameStop yesterday and bought a few games. I got Just Dance 3 for the Wii, Batman: Arkham City for the PS3, Dungeon Siege 3 for the PS3, and Professor Layton and the Curious Village for the DS. They were all used except for Just Dance 3 which was on sale.

I was in the mood to play something very anime, so I ordered Tales of Vesperia last week. Should get here tomorrow or Saturday. I also ordered Nier today since Amazon had it for $15.

I'm wanting to play Nier. Let me know how good it is when you play it?

Will do, but it'll probably be after Vesperia, so it could be a bit.

Also forgot to mention that I preordered the Indie Royale Valentine's Bundle as well.

Nier is fantastic! Play it immediately!

PS: I just picked up Twisted Metal from Lockerz for $41.99 and I'm eyeing Uncharted: Golden Abyss for $35.99!

Ok, Tyler already broke the ice about me feeling awkward about ordering new games from Lockerz. I mean my last couple of new game transactions have actually been from there, if I see another one of those Christmas time sales come around I'll be a happy camper...or a poor one.

Technically my last purchases were Dark Souls, KOFXIII, LOZ: Skyward Sword and MS points from there (also got a cool free carrying bag). Aside from that my pre-orders for certain rpgs on Amazon will be fulfilled soon, so I expect to get Devil Survivor 2 and Tales of Graces soon enough (actually I have like 2 rpgs pre-ordered for each following month...this could be a problem). I'll probably also burn my gamestop giftcards and promo codes (since my $10 expires next month) on Neptunia 2 when it releases, so if I dislike it I can shrug it off and pretend it wasn't my money, at least not much of it.

Nier does have a cult-like following, I kind of had a love hate relationship with the game personally, but I can see why people enjoy it. But Tales of Vesperia is a solid game, probably good for the anime-game fix (and then some).

I just bought Ocarina of Time 3D from a pawnshop for $9 the other day.

[Leah]

Umm just won Echo Night for PS1 on eBay yesterday... So that should be coming soon for me!

[Jordan Haygood]

Last I remember (before that horrible accident), I got the Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword (Wii), Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon (Wii), Kirby's Return to Dream Land (Wii), Rayman Origins (Wii), Professor Layton and the Last Specter (DS), Final Fantasy XIII-2 (360), Batman: Arkham City (360), and possibly a few others I'm forgetting. Also, my roommate got his PS3 out of pawn, so now I have one of those to play.

[Rex705]

The last 2 games I got where NeverDead and Jak and Daxter HD collection. NeverDead was awesome but I regret getting Jak and Daxter with it's poorly done cam that wont let you see anything making you fall to your doom over and over again.

[Kat Leonard]

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, Darkness II, Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time [3DS].

[Elizabeth]

I broke back and pre-ordered Borderlands 2 for the PS3. It's one of few titles I'm really wanting to get this year. Also took advantage of some of the free titles for PS Plus members and got the Sega Collection thing. And that was mainly for Comix Zone and the Sonic games.

[Marcus Estrada]

I got the Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom Limited Edition from Amazon.

[Kat Leonard]

Technically I have the CE of Mass Effect 3 on its way to me.

I also bought the IndieGala bundle (the biggest one).

[bink]

Considering ordering Mass Effect 3 but haven't pulled the trigger. Aaaaaah should I do it? I don't know if I'm really feeling the pre-order/new game price. I'm usually one to wait until it's been out for a while, but I sure have been enjoying the multiplayer. Hmmm..Decisions, decisions!

Also although not a purchase of my own, I did recently win Battlefield 3 from Game Deal Daily so I'm super excited to play that!

[TKtheknight]

I haven't purchased anything since last year, but I did preorder Mass Effect 3. Also Nier is fantastic and I loved it.

[Elizabeth]

I got the Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom Limited Edition from Amazon.

I wanted to get that edition. Might still though I have the digital one on my PSP.

[Kezins]

I just bought Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom on Amazon for $4.95. That's really the only recent purchase for me other than Final Fantasy XIII-2. I'm still busy with Skyrim, so I really don't need to buy too many games.

[John Kidman]

Last Purchase: 13-2, Lumines
Pre-orders that have been pre-paid: ME3, Xenoblade, Tales of Graces f and Star Wars Kinect
Next to buy: I'm going to give in and buy Tales of the Abyss for 3DS, Last Story (not sure if they started taking pre-orders yet)

[TYLERxDURDEN]

I just picked up a N7 hoodie from Bioware! It's sick.

I plan on preordering Mass Effect 3 and possibly Last Story or Xenoblade since they have Jason's stamp of approval (just picked up a Wii last week)!
