The default graphics are pretty bad now but you can pretty them up with some mods. The Oblivion hardcore fans are pretty crazy. Some of them came up with brand new textures for almost everything.

You should have went for the full 100 to see if it was like in Futurama, where time slowed down and you could see the beating of a hummingbird's wings.

I had way more fun than I should with the Swordcraft Story games, even if they were heavy on the backtracking. I understand this is more of an ARPG, though? I decided not to do the secret dungeon in DQ4 DS so I need a new game to play.
Title: Re: Saturday, What Did You Buy?
Post by: MrAngryFace on November 16, 2008, 02:18:02 AM: Yeah, and the story isnt nearly as funny as the earlier games imo. I think if there's a failing its that. The action is a lot of fun and there's skill trees n stuff, but I did a lot of grinding so maybe thats why I was OP. A few early boss fights are a little rough, but after that its pretty easy.

Good buy. I enjoyed this game, even if it was a bit too far on the easy side.

I got this:

Figured I should buy it now since the price will shoot up to 399 once the sales on it end.

Also some cables to complete my projector setup.

Well, it's 250 now, and the MSRP is 400. I was either going to get this or Star Trek: TNG (which is 299). I figured I should get this since it is slightly cheaper and it's not like the TNG set is going to jump up 100+ bucks in price in the near future.
