I'm somewhat disappointed by this news.
Ever since my systems got stolen, I've been hoarding cheap cube games and holding out for a Zelda bundle before I buy the system.
If the cube sees a price drop this fall, then I'll buy it for sure.
RE4 and Chibi Robo, and the dozen or so other titles that I've picked up on the cheap should keep me busy until march.
Used Cubes go super cheap in and around Toronto. They're like $70-80 downtown.
There's a place in hamilton selling them for $60, but I really want a new one.
I just don't want to pay more than $100 plus tax.
I'm sure walmart or zellers will have them on sale soon enough.
Those town shots are incredible.
Too bad, like Mog said, it won't look half as good when I go into it from PGR3.
Who cares? It will still look awesome, and will take a dump on all the launch titles for the 360 and PS3 in gameplay. Zeldas Art direction is a lot better than anything I have seen for the 360 and PS3 yet, so that alone makes it look better in my opinion.Quote:

Sure it sucks when you first hear the news - but once the game finally comes out you dont even remember about the wait. See: HalfLife2. 'Sides, we got Shadow of the Collosus to hold us over...
Heh. Like a transparent sheet, I can kind of still see those old days.Quote:

There I was, someone who has loved gaming all his life but never really could aforid more than a few games a year, smack in the middle of a gaming store with money coming into my pocket from spending time there and talking about it to other people who liked gaming.
I went game crazy for so long and, now that I'm not in that environment, it's so awkward to look at gaming in that same light.
Like, right now I'm kind of in that gaming buzz because there are a bunch of DS games I would love to play and some great looking stuff coming out for PS2, but even then it's controlled. I'm not looking at Metal Gear Solid 3 Substance and thinking, "Wow. I should pick that up and try it because so many people are excited for it." I'm thinking, "Fuck that noise. That'll cut into DQ8 time."
So, yeah, I kind of remember... and now I'll stop remembering because I'm tired and ranting and this is starting to sound more like a Live Journal post then a reply. :bang:
Good post. I fell into that trap myself, and it caused me to really spend cash on games when I started making good money. It's taken a long time to get back to the "buy what you have the time/will to play" attitude. The one where when a game comes out that I've been waiting for, it's a really huge deal.Quote:
