I won't deny that I know some of these games, and that some of them are pretty good, but jeez, what were you going for? Quantity? Or quality? You could have bought a mix of The Witcher 2, Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon, Awesomenauts and Bastion for around the same price, and while they aren't as many as the games you picked, they still are pretty solid.

But to mark your achievement, I've given you a fitting avatar for the time being. Have fun.

I'll confess my sin, I've played Witcher 2 and got bored of it after it crashed on me for the 10th time, also I felt like I wasn't getting anywhere because of the weight limit classing with my hoarder instincts, such mechanics have no place in a single player game. Haven't played the regular far cry 3, and it's a time consuming game so it will be a while before I get into it, so it seemed kinda silly to get into blood dragon before it (I know, no connection, but still). Bastion I was never particularly interested into. Awesomenauts I actually bought to try out as you can see.

As for the justification for the games I bought,
Marlow Briggs is fun, and I really wanted to see how a low budget hack and slash like this plays out, the notion is kinda inspiring to be honest.
Defy Gravity is quick, interesting and dirt cheap (and its cards are actually more expensive than the game itself).
Awesomenauts as I said I wanted to try out.
Castle Crashers I was not sure about, but hey, it has co-op and other people around have it, so I asked for their opinion on it and they told me to get it.
Strike Vector I wanted since launch.
From what I've seen of Cloudbuilt I really enjoyed both how it looks and how it plays.
Shuggy seemed interesting for its price.
One way heroics I really wanted to try out, seemed like a really interesting concept and I like jrpgs anyways, it's also significantly less stressful than half minute hero to me, which is something I value.
Then I was left with 50 cents I had to spent on something, so I picked Velvet Assassin since I haven't played stealth in quite a while.

I don't really think big names equate quality, also, I prefer having some disposable stuff with the time I am currently working with, it will be nice being able to play those during vacations (over, say, The Witcher 2, which the laptop I will take with me will never handle).

So, did you save my old avatar somewhere or do I have to dig for it myself?

Sucks. Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon is really good from what I've played so far.

I saved the avi, but you'll have to wait for me to get back home so I can pull it out of storage.

I don't exactly remember the discounts and the prices, but according to my wallet, this is exactly how much I have spent... I think I'll be good until next year and probably a few years with Civ 5, Payday 2 and finishing off BL2 alone... My original budget was $125 and that plan went very well I must say.

So much for investing in the 2DS...sorry Smash Bros... I'm officially a PC guy once and for all.
