Sunday Roundup: 3/3/13

New Games (3-3-13)Gotta throw a shout out to David Hughes over at Splitkick.com for these games. He was gracious enough to send them my way out of the kindness of his heart! To say I’m excited for these games is an understatement: I’ve been looking for Alundra 2 for years now, and to have it fall into my lap in a way is just a great feeling. So, to David, thank you!

And for that matter if any of you out there are looking for a loving home for your dust collecting games, look no further 🙂 (more…)

Sunday Roundup: 2/24/13

New Games (2-24-13)What can you get for $10 these days? Two five dollar footlongs at Subway, at least until Thursday. Half of a T-shirt? Maybe some cheap flatware from Wal-Mart? This week I determined that $10 can net you more than some lame cutlery or fast food. It can be six video games! Sure, it’s not six of the newest games, but it’s six video games that can suck up way more time than some silly sandwich.

Sunday Roundup: 12/30/12

New Games (12-30-12)Here it is. The final Sunday Roundup of the year.

And what a year it’s been. dozens of great games came out in 2012 (with some included in this week’s Roundup!), and even more stellar games came my way this year as well.

The final Sunday Roundup of 2012 includes not only games I picked up myself throughout the week but also the handful of excellent Christmas gifts I received from family and loved ones. Thank you so much for all the gifts everyone. And now to just play them all 🙂 (more…)

Sunday Roundup: 12/16/12

New Games (12-16-12)A quick trip into Disc Replay and twenty bucks later I am the owner of six new video games.

Sometimes it’s just as simple as that. Like most other instances when I shop for games, I really only wanted two or three of these, but the allure of paying $10 more and getting three more games is just too good to pass up. (more…)

Sunday Roundup: 12/9/12

New Games (12-9-12)Christmas shopping out of town inevitably leads me to looking through the racks for games to claim as my own. Most people, my family included, frown upon the notion of “Shopping for yourself” during the Holidays, but one of the best parts about being a game collector is that there are always going to be games you can buy for yourself that literally no one would get you as a gift. If you’re looking for a few examples, just read on below!

Sunday Roundup: 11/25/12

Miss a few weeks of the Sunday Roundup and I’ve got to get back in a big way I suppose. I knew there were some great game deals out there for Black Friday at big retailers like Best Buy, Amazon.com, and Wal-Mart, but in the confusion and craziness that is the kickoff of the holiday shopping season, I completely looked past a local store that just so happens to sell video games from decades past. And did I luck out by checking their sales as well. Let’s just say that 20% off and buy 1 get 1 sales make me a happy collector!

Sunday Roundup: 11/4/12

3DS games galore this week in the Sunday Roundup! I actually got all three of these games on Monday, yet I’ve only had time to play one of them (Two guesses which one!). Still though, expect to see full reviews of each game in the coming weeks.
Also note that this is a strong outing for 3DS games in general. The system finally has a strong library forming behind it, giving the vanilla DS a very well deserved successor. These games are all great, and if you’re on the fence on switching to the 3DS, I think the time is right and it’s only going to be getting better. (more…)

Sunday Roundup: 10/28/12

Slow weeks are good for my wallet, which I have to give a break every once in a while. And when the games (or in this case the singular game) I get are quality titles like this week’s, and at a reasonable price point, I don’t mind as much. When will the next big week strike Slick Gaming? Hmm, I’m thinking next Sunday is already shaping up to be a good one…

Sunday Roundup: 10/14/12

I have a small confession to make: this is a culmination of two weeks worth of games. I was unable to get my Sunday Roundup done last week on time, and as you’ll see I had plenty of games to put together a solid week’s worth of titles for you all. But one thing lead to another and I wasn’t able to publish my weekly article. But fear not! The Sunday Roundup has not gone away, and it is back, better than ever. Or at least it’s back. Being better is totally subjective.
