Got some used games from the internet and a local gamestore.

From the store:
Final Fantasy I - PSP
Final Fantasy II - PSP
Dissidia: Final Fantasy - PSP
Killzone: Liberation - PSP
Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together - PSP
Command & Conquer: Ultimate Collection - PC (now I can play all those older games again without using virtualbox or any other messing around)
Total: 55 euro ~70 dollars(I had a coupon and there where sales)

From the internet:
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team - GBA
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone - GBA
Kuru Kuru Kururin - GBA
Castlevania: Circle of the Moon - GBA
Tetris - GB
Revenge of the 'Gator - GB
Total: 15 euro ~20 dollars including shipping

Played around with the GBA games a bit.
-Got to Cave 2 on Kuru Kuru Kururin.
-Got to the flying lesson in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.
-Just beat Team Meanies in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team.

I also caught Mewtwo, Zapdos and several others in Pokémon Pinball and got a highscore of
6.828.212.300 on the Blue one and I completed VLR yesterday (got all trophies too).

I'm afraid FF and C&C will have to wait till after the exams. I want to play some really light stuff after all that studying.

After not playing it for a while, I picked up my copy of Kirby Super Star Ultra and finished off Milky Way Wishes (I was about 2/3 through), and then beat Revenge of the King. Before I move on to Meta-Knightmare Ultra or The Arena, I think I'm going to go back to Great Cave Offensive and Milky Way Wishes and 100% them (finish collecting the treasures and powers)

Picked up the Dracula X Chronicles game on PSP yesterday for a fiver, mint. Thanks Game! So in the wee small hours of this morning I unlocked Symphony of the Night. Now to unlock the other two. I should really make a start on my other PSP games too. I have Final Fantasy Tactics and Tactics Ogre sat there, not even started either yet.

I hated Great Cave Offensive - it was too much like...collect 'em all for no reason. I only bothered to get the full amount of treasures once.

Finally beat the story mode of Spirit Camera. There's more, thank god, because the main game is pretty dang short!

I used to hate Great Cave Offensive myself, but this time when I played it, it really grew on me. I'm not sure why. I guess it's because I pursued the actual goal of the game (collect all the treasures), instead of viewing it like all the other game modes, which were basically "get to the end of the level!" When I tried to play with that mindset, I just got frustrated and bored, because that's not how great gave offensive is structured.

That's just my personal guess, anyway.

Beat the first story of Pokemon Conquest in just under 9 hours.
I think the first time I played it it took me about 12 hours or 15 hours or something hours :/

Picked up Final Fantasy Anthology and Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 on the PS1 for $2 each. Near-mint condition. Ended up spending a little time playing FFV, and got a small chunk of the game completed.

Beat the first three sections (Spring Breeze, Dynablade, and Great Cave Offensive) on Meta-Knightmare Ultra in Kirby: Super Star Ultra. Also played through mission 5 of Halo 4 in co-op in normal mode, after not touching the game since before Christmas.
Loved the cutscene at the end of the mission, when Chief essentially told that idiot Captain Del Rio to go f*** himself. What a badass.

Got the last Chaos Emerald in Sonic 4 Episode 1. Only had to try the spacial stage twice :)

Jammy goit, it took me for-fucking-ever to get that emerald.

As for my achievements so far today, I unlocked the original Rondo Of Blood in Dracula X Chronicles. Not had time for much gaming today, been a little busy.

I made 27 cakes in Minecraft. I need to make 13 more cakes, before Lex Luthor can steal them.

I didn't play the game, but I know the story and the cut scenes, and yes that part is totally bad ass.

I found that stage quite simple compares to stage 5 and 6. 5 took me many, many tries to beat.
