PlayStation 3

TC, are you a fan of that genre?

I played DMC1 way back in the day and loved it. DMC2 was brutal and because of that I passed on 3 and 4.

But I am a fan of action games of that sort and was thinking of picking this one up. Only thing is I'm working on my backlog and trying to knock out those games(unfinished swan, dust, borderlands 2, Mario Wii u) before Metal Gear Rising comes out because once MGR comes out, there's literally 7-8 great games releasing from that day through may(and a couple more I THINK are coming out like GTA5 and South Park). So if I don't get to DmC by then, it might be July before I can come up for air and find time to give it a shot.

Just when I thought I had a window, this Ni No Kuni game is releasing(game that flew under my radar and I realize I WANT that next week), and that will seal the deal on any chance of me finishing my backlog by mid February. Also, the Cave was sort of a surprise release next week as well(figured it would have been a Summer of Arcade game).

So after all this babble, I'm gonna be passing for now, but definitely interested in how people are receiving it for later in the year when I can get around to playing/buying it. Normally I would already have bought it and it would collect dust for months, but I'm trying to use some self control for once in my life and buy it for 29 bucks in a few months, rather than burning a full 60 like I usually do. I'm far from a cheapskate, but I'm on a mission to save 500k in the next 16 years(retiring at 49), so i have dough to bridge me to my pension. Saving 30 bucks a pop a dozen times a year is one of NINE easy things I can do in my budget to save an extra 5k a year on top of what I am already saving. I feel like a hardcore heeb though. Its not in my DNA to be like this, but I'll be damned if I'm gonna work a day past 50. I'm at the breaking point and I'm only 33.

So basically, a useless point of view?
