The Impossible Shopping List

[johntv]

Man. Today I decided to make a list of all the games (and game systems) I need to buy between now and Dec. 31, and the results are -not- pretty. Between PS3 and Wii and everything else, this is easily going to be the most expensive holiday season ever.

Here's the list as it stands now:

10/25: Phantasy Star Universe (X360/US)
10/26: Tales of the Tempest (DS/JP)
10/31: Final Fantasy XII (PS2/US)

11/2: Lumines II (PSP/US)
11/6: Final Fantasy V Advance (GBA/US)
11/7: Gears of War (X360/US)
11/7: Sega Genesis Collection (PS2/US)
11/11: PlayStation 3 (JP)
11/11: Ridge Racer 7 (PS3/JP)
11/14: Final Fantasy III (DS/US)
11/14: Gunpey (DS/US)
11/14: Gunpey (PSP/US)
11/16: Akumajyou Dracula: Gallery of Labyrinth (DS/JP)
11/17: PlayStation 3 (US)
11/17: Resistance: Fall of Man (PS3/US)
11/19: Wii (US)

11/22: Bokura no Taiyou: Django & Sabata (DS/JP)
11/22: Culdcept Saga (X360/JP)
11/22: Jeanne d'Arc (PSP/JP)
11/22: Tales of Destiny (PS2/JP)
12/1: Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops (PSP/US)
12/2: Wii (JP)
12/2: Odoru Made in Wario (Wii/JP)
12/2: Hajimete no Wii (Wii/JP)
12/7: Blue Dragon (X360/JP)
12/7: Motor Storm (PS3/JP)
12/14: Fushigi no Dungeon: Furai no Shiren DS (DS/JP)
12/21: Ys Origin (PC/JP)
12/21: Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology (PSP/JP)
12/21: Lost Planet: Extreme Condition (X360/JP)

Ugh! And that doesn't even include the stuff I'm on the fence about (Yoshi's Island DS, Elite Beat Agents, Gyakuten Saiban 2, Ryuusei no Rockman, .hack//G.U., Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker, etc. etc.)

There's no way I can afford all this stuff. I've got to trim it down somehow! Help!
