3/13/13- Left 4 Dead GOTY Xbox 360 $17

3.5 months since my last purchase. Not bad.

Started watching the walking dead, played some zombicide, and still wanted more zombies. Couldn't help myself.

Smoove_B · Post by **Smoove_B** » Mon Mar 18, 2013 9:42 am

3/18 - Little Inferno @3.99

So, about 2 months since my last gaming purchase and I still have a ton of credit in my STEAM wallet. Maybe I'll purchase SotS The Pit today too so I can maximize my transgressions all on the same day.

Civilization V: Explorers map pack $4.99 on 3/19/2013.

I made it 32 days +/-

3/17 Rift (base game, on Amazon it was only $7.10). Had been playing the F2P to Lev20 w/ some friends who just bought the game. Decided it was enjoyable enough to invest this much more in (came w/ 30 day sub too).

Waiting to get Xpac to see if I still like it when I get to 50 and need it (or for it to go on sale, looks like 20-25$ is cheapest download I can find not on sale).

3/19 backed the Dungeon Roll KickStarter (not a computer game, but something I'd never have known about if not for you people, so it seemed sort of appropriate to list here).

March 22: Euro Truck Simulator 2.

Same game broke me, but it was around 3/2.

and then the dominos fell one after another....

Kerbal Space Program
Guild Wars 2
Far Cry 3
Assassin's Creed 3
Dirt 3
Tomb Raider

March has been a bad (good!) month for me. I did make great strides on my backlog based on smoove's thread and bought very little over the winter, but man I am burying myself again.

3/29 Dominions 3 (Gamers Gate sale, $7.50... couldn't resist!)

Holman · Post by **Holman** » Wed Apr 03, 2013 4:13 pm

April 3: I just pre-ordered the "Gustav Line" expansion for "Combat Mission: Fortress Italy." I haven't bought a new PC game since CMFI in October.

Isgrimnur · Post by **Isgrimnur** » Fri Apr 05, 2013 11:30 am

April 5th: Humble Red Orchestra/Killing Floor Bundle, Borderlands 2 Season Pass.

Teggy · Post by **Teggy** » Fri Apr 05, 2013 1:34 pm

I have so many games now I am trying to take a different approach. I'd like to play any game that is released this year as reasonably close to when I bought it. Partly because I want to have experienced the best games of this year in this year, while also keeping my backlog steady. I have so many good games in the backlog as well, there's really no point in buying new ones. The one exception is the 3DS, which I just got, so I'm kind of forgiving myself for buying a few games for it.

Hamsterball_Z · Post by **Hamsterball_Z** » Fri Apr 05, 2013 3:38 pm

4/05
Torchlight II ($7.50 via Zenn7)

4/13 Rift: Storm Legions Xpac (just about to where I need it and it was 50% off at GMG, plus the 20% download coupon, got it for $16, seemed like a good price...)

The last game I bought was "FarCry 3" on 12-28-12.

And I gave in and picked up "Bioshock Infinite" on 04-10-13 at Target. Full price ($59.99). Along with the softcover strategy guide for $21.99. I ended up returning the strategy guide however, since I found that Amazon is selling the Collector's Edition Hardcover Strategy Guide for only a dollar more.

I've posted way too much in this thread. And Summer is right around the corner.

miltonite · Post by **miltonite** » Tue Apr 16, 2013 3:50 pm

My will to not purchase any games is still going strong. GW2 and Borderlands 2 are still more than enough to keep me interested up to this point.

4/16/13- Sim City.

A little over a month since my last purchase. Not terrible.

January 23, 2013

(Note, I did buy GW2 for a friend as a gift this weekend, but I wouldn't count that for the purposes here).

2nd Note: if Dragonborn goes on Steam sale, I'm not necessarily counting on that as a purchase - should I?

Purchase breaking string:

Willpower gone. I'm just too intrigued.

4/17: Sang Froid: Tales of Werewolves

84 days (though I only used Christmas money, so no out-of-pocket money since January so far...)

PS - DAMN you FORUM EFFECT!

Holman · Post by **Holman** » Fri Apr 19, 2013 6:02 pm

April 19: I jumped on the sale and bought the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Anthology from Gamer's Gate: Baldur's Gate I & II, Planescape: Torment, Icewind Dale, Temple of Elemental Evil, and some add-ons.

Less than seven dollars.

May 17: I pre-ordered Rising Storm, the Pacific-theater sequel to Red Orchestra 2.

This opens the beta, and it is brutal. Marines vs. Japanese at close quarters. Flamethrowers.
