Obviously I grabbed up Syndicate, but for some reason I was thinking about Watch_Dogs recently and remembered that I never got around to playing the Bad Blood DLC. So I got on to buy that, and noticed that the season pass contained Bad Blood plus a whole bunch of other stuff, like extra missions, weapons, and costumes, and for only a few bucks more. So what the hell, season pass it is. Might want to replay the game soon, maybe after Syndicate.
Also: funny, the similarities in the above pics. Makes it look like I'm doing a comparison or something. It's theorized that Watch_Dogs actually is based in the same universe as AC, so it's appropriate I guess.

Now I'm curious what everyone would consider as their "slut game" -- I'm a slut for Metroidvanias.

wow talk about a small Collectors package for $130. it has one of the most clever things I have ever seen for a CE, it has a little protective plastic box around the actual box inside so it doesnt get damaged. Wont be opening this thing just yet, it got put right on the shelf with my other stuff.

Yep, they did that with Symphonia Chronicles too. Thought it was genius.

So I started playing Watch_Dogs as I was winding down on AC Syndicate, and kind of a weird thing happened. Back when I first played through it (roughly a year ago, I think) I really enjoyed it. Thought it was a really good open-world experience, way better than all the shit people were giving it (primarily, I'm convinced, due to the graphics not being quite as high-spec as initially expected, to which I shrugged my shoulders).
When the game was in development, I think people just got too excited for it or something, and the final product didn't blow their minds. I dunno really. All I know is that I didn't follow it much at all during development, thinking little more of it than "eh, looks cool-ish." So going into it with almost no expectations, I ended up thinking it was a helluva fun time. Not amazing, sure, but certainly worth a playthrough.
Well I start playing it a week ago or whatever... and holy shit. The good kind. For some reason, it's just clicking with me to a ridiculous extreme. While I had fun the first time a year ago, I'm having a fucking blast now. While I liked it before, I'm flat-out loving it now. And seriously (this shocked me a bit), it's starting to approach that "one of my favorite games" level for me. It was a slow burn, I guess. I might go into it another time why that is exactly, but the point is that for some reason it's just gained this crazy level of prestige for me personally, and whenever a game hits that sweet spot... the merch gets bought.
So this is likely just the first of many Watch_Dogs things I'll end up buying. I'll try not to post every time (that'd be a bit obnoxious), but I am excited to get to look through this.

I'm also eyeing one of the UK collector's editions (which comes with the soundtrack and the protagonist's hat and mask; none of that dumb "9 inch statue" bullshit we always get saddled with in the US), and a couple other things.

Also, just to get free shipping on amazon (and because I've wanted this for a while anyway), I also threw in the soundtrack to AC Revelations. Still my favorite AC game, and the soundtrack has a number of moments that already hit me with nostalgia. Great OST.
