Heavan Can't Wait

You should never wait too long when it comes to buying games. I recently adopted a new strategy of waiting out for selected games to drop in price before picking it up to play. There are of course, exception to this rule like the forthcoming Resident Evil 5 but everything else in between, like We Love Golf! and the recent Silent Hill Homecoming will just have to wait. I've been sitting on the fence with the US version of Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles for quite some time now, the price was pretty tempting for a PSP game and i'm still struggling to finish Symphony of the Night on my japanese version. But the reality is i have already spent way too much on this one title, having purchased the deluxe konamistyle edition of Dracula X Chronicles and later, a PSOne books version of the original Symphony of the Night on the PSOne. Neither one of them really of any use to me unless i happened to speak and read japanese as i soon discover when i started playing Symphony of the Night. Should i decided not to pick up another copy of Dracula X Chronicles, there is always the original Symphony Of the Night available for purchase on Sony Playstation Network Store for the Playstation3. As much of the content was altered for the Dracula X Chronicles, this would be a better option to experience the classic in its' original unaltered form.


So as it turns out, i waited a little too long to come to a decision and lucked out on this one as the Greatest Hits version of Dracula X Chronicles has already been issued and Play-asia is no longer carrying the black label version. Well there's always the shadier side of Singapore games stores which i can turn to should i still intend on hunting down the black label Dracula X Chronicles. Lesson learnt, looks like i better pre-order the upcoming Castlevania Judgment for the Wii soon.
