Gotta love pawn shops...Dead Rising, Eternal Sonat
I can go to the local Gamestop and a used copy of Eternal Sonata is $34.99, and a used copy of Dead Rising is $17.99.
I bought Caleb Lord of the Rings: Conquest and Skate 2 for his PS 3, so I held off and went to two different pawn shops afterward to find something to tide me over until Star Ocean and Resident Evil 5 come out.
The first pawn shop had about ten copies of used Dead Rising games on the $8.00 rack, so I picked up a copy. The second had a slew of games for the $12.00 rack, and there were two copies of Eternal Sonata. I snagged it in a heartbeat. Pawn owners around here don't know what they have. They're so busy selling stolen TV's that they classify games as either being 8, 10, or 12 dollars. There were a ton of games that would have cost 20 bucks at Gamestop on the rack. I only went for these two.
So far, I've played Dead Rising for about an hour. It's cool. I guess. Taking pictures was fun, but now I find myself running around the mall with tons of popups asking me to take pictures. I had one foxy chick following me and two old people, and I didn't give a shit. I kept running and I'm trying to find the security room and have no idea where it is, even after looking at the map. I finally slowed down (I have a gun) and suddenly, the two old people catch up to me, and there's some guy with a television show type camera rigged up to his head. I can't find the chick anywhere.
All I have is a gun and a golf club. For some reason I have an endless supply of golf balls.
I'm just running around and my guy runs like he has a hockey stick up his ass.
More to come.
