Remnant II - Ultimate Edition (PS5)
Granblue Fantasy Re:Link (Steam)

Coincidentally enough, just when my buddy and I are finishing up our playing time with the first game, Remnant II goes on sale for a pretty nice discount. The Ultimate Edition comes with all DLC plus some other goodies and is normally $70, but is on sale for a easy to digest $42 right now. So I picked it up on PS5 because I don't know how long it's going to take for them to finally add cross-play (they said it will be added, they just don't know how long it'll take to get it working right). I'll probably go ahead and buy it on Steam too, since it's on sale for the same price there right now as well, and if it's like the first game, it's definitely one that I'll be willing to play through and 100% twice.

Re:Link was bought as a gift for my lover, Monocle, as a birthday present.

Halloween Birthday Bash (Shiny) Yoshi Metroid 
Unicorn Overlord PS5 Collector's Edition

Well I did say I was likely to end up ignoring this game, so I watched a demo playthrough just to see what it's like, and I could've played the demo myself, but I liked what I saw. Having units within a main unit, and can have up to 10 main units to fight with? Nice. Then I looked at the Collector's Edition which was pretty much sold out almost everywhere but found it still available on Amazon, then sat for a while thinking should I or shouldn't I? My PS5 can do with another game.

That was on ShopTo I found that for Paper Mario, it seemed to be added on to the standard release, I didn't know about that until I saw the page to pre-order.

Huh, yeah it seems to be exclusive to that retailer. Interesting. Wondering if any US retailers would come up with something similar. It looks cool!

So, I screwed up lol. I bought it on eBay, wasn't paying attention, and I got it today only to realize its a Japanese copy. The seller doesn't accept returns, so I just have a Japanese copy of the game now! The funny part is, it actually runs on my PS3. I just can't play it because I don't know Japanese XD

I was gonna say, the PS3 isn't region-locked so of course you can play it but uh yeah, unfortunate it's an RPG and not something like a fighting game where, you know, text is generally unimportant ROFL

Amazon has a bunch of games on sale right now, so as you can see, I picked up quite a few.

Got P3R for a more appropriate price point of $40. Originally I was going to wait until it was $20 instead, but $40 is still much better than the joke of SEGA/Atlus thinking P3R is a $70 game.

Got P5T for $30 ($60 normally), Blasphemous 2 for $25 (was I think $40 previously, the old price isn't showing any more) and Prince of Persia, which I've heard is an actually really good metroidvania game, for $30 as well ($50 normally).

Edge of Eternity was the only one that wasn't on sale. It's some random indie RPG that I've been keeping my eye on and the price has fallen to $20 for the PS5 version, so I was like yeah, sure, that's low enough for me to snatch it up.
