I totally forgot to mention in one of my previous posts that I grabbed the WipEout HD bundle (PSN), that comes with the eponymous game, the Fury DLC, and the DLC versions of those for WipEout 2048 (PSV). I don't have a PSVita, but hey, I have WipEout 2048 free on PS+, so I can check all that out if/when I get one... That said, I'm rather unimpressed with WipEout HD (this is my first taste of the series). I know a lot of people compare it to F-Zero, so I was expecting something at least somewhat comparable, but instead it feels slow, clunky, floaty, and rather uneventful without enough racers. I think I'll stick with F-Zero X and GX for my racing fix, but I'm still glad I have this game in case friends want to play, and if I'm itching to race online.
Yesterday I picked up Dark Souls (PS3) from GameStop... again. I picked it up around Christmas, but just didn't like it, so I returned it. But I don't know, I really want to give it another chance for some reason, all while certain issues about the game still bug me, I'm enjoying myself more than the first time I played. I'm still dying a lot and don't know what to do, but I'm having fun exploring all the different places I can go.
Also today, I grabbed Castlevania: Curse of Darkness (Xbox) on Amazon. Originally I was going to wait until I play and beat my copy of the previous game, just to make sure I like it (I know people are mixed on it), but at only about $8 including shipping, including the case and manual, I figured I might as well. I'm glad I did my research first, though... I didn't know there was an Xbox version before I checked, and apparently it's marginally better (minus an insignificant bonus in the PS2 version). Besides, my new Xbox needs some love (I only own three games for it excluding Castlevania, and I bet you can guess what two of them are,
