In my perspective it's still paying almost $7 to be mocked and reminded that I'm dumb.

And would you consider that to be good value for money for said service?

Well, it's not wildly overpriced, but my wife will do both of those things for free.

Those are some fine games. Especially heroes of might and Magic. 3. I need to rebuy that at some point. I lost my original copy of it a few years back and can't play it anymore. Not that I have any devices that still read CDs.

Glad I chose correctly. I've never played a Heroes of M&M game before. I recently saw a video about the third game and thought it looked fun.

HoMM 3 is the best of the series, and to date still one of my favorite games of all time. It is one of those games that you can lose weeks and months very easily. It is a damn near perfectly balanced strategy game, which is a rare feat to pull off. It got thrown off a little bit during the final expansion, Armageddon's Blade, because they introduced a class called the sharpshooter that was just way too powerful and accessible way too early in a campaign. But so long as you're not playing against other people, it won't be an issue, unless you choose to exploit it yourself.

Also, if you end up liking it, you might want to look at Heroes of might and magic 5. The developers never really the mark once the game went to 3D, and HoMM 4 was an absolute mess. But they recovered nicely with 5.

Picked up Super Mario RPG Remake today. Loved the original and am looking forward to seeing how well this remake turned out.

So I'm feeling especially masochistic this morning, and I just bought Ghosts and Goblins Resurrection. Given how awful my reflexes are these days, I can't even begin to understand why I wanted this, but it was under $10, so I'm sure I've spent money worse before. I've eaten at Popeye's after all.

Thankfully, G&G Resurrections has a lot of difficulty options. It's a great game. I especially love the art style which I wasn't sure of initially.

Yeah it's a good looking game, in the music is very good too. It has kind of a Danny elfman vibe, and fits the game like a glove. But yeah that's a rough game. I did make it to the first level after about an hour, so I got that going for me. Lol

Square-Enix has a nice sale going on with a lot of their 'B' properties. So I picked up SaGa: Scarlett Grace and the Legend of Mana Remaster.

I already played a couple quick minutes of legend of mana, and I have to admit I'd forgotten just how bad the combat in that game is. It's fine, because the combat is also the least interesting part of the game (and they even added an option to turn off combat completely), but it's definitely going to take a little bit of getting used to.
