Where'd my stimulus check go?

On top of the House DVDs mentioned earlier, too many visits to the used game stores, that's where. Over the past two weeks I've hit several, and now filling in the gaps of my collection are:
  • Viewtiful Joe 2, Gamecube (two bucks; how could I pass it up?)
  • Zelda: Twilight Princess, Gamecube
  • Okami, PS2
  • Soul Calibur III, PS2 (new copy!)
  • Katamari Damacy, PS2 (Teep loaned me a copy already but there were new ones for sale for $10, so I couldn't resist)
  • Metroid Fusion, GBA
  • Final Fantasy I&II: Dawn of Souls, GBA
  • Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, GBA
  • Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings, DS
  • Elite Beat Agents, DS
  • And all three DS Phoenix Wrights, which I'd already played through loaners, but I wanted my own copies already. They're used and therefore completed, so I can re-tackle the cases in whatever order later.
My Backloggery is turning into a losing battle...

Fusion is OK, but Zero Mission is massive loads better. It's probably on my perennial top ten list of games.

Heh, my Backloggery was a losing battle from the first moment I got it! I have far too many games that I've bought that I have yet to beat. It's never that I realize buying the game was a bad decision, either. Nope, it's always that I'll start playing a game, then stop for a while, play something else, then something else, and then by the time I finally cycle back around to that first game, it's been so long since I've played that I no longer remember the plot or where I'm going and thus have to start again just to avoid wandering around in confusion for hours.

Though the times when I've had enough fortitude to avoid that, the resulting wandering has allowed me to get nicely overlevelled so I can rush through some parts of the game with ease to get back on track. :3
