Anyone ever get really lucky in terms of pricing when buying a game?
-I got the Onimusha games (1-3) all for under $20. Yeah the games were used, but in perfect conditon.
-Devil May Cry 2 and 3 each for only $10 both close to their initial release.
Their are a couple more but I just can't think of them right now. Anyone else got some great buys?
Suikoden II for $30 bucks on a total whim. <3
I always buy used stuff off Amazon. I never pay full price unless it's a series I go out of my way to support like the Tales series, Xenosaga, or Final Fantasy (as if that needs my money anyway).
But I've bought the likes of Prince of Persia, Silent Hill 2 and 3, X-Men Legends 1 and 2, Dragon Quest VIII, Shadow Hearts 1 and 2, Baten Kaitos, and a few others at around 20 bucks or less. Some of them have gone up quite a bit since then too :jess:
What?! Raging jealousy! xDQuote:

How'd you pull off getting Steel Battalion for eight dollars, if I may ask?
I got Beyond Good and Evil and Ikaruga for $15 each. I also got Game Cube's Namcomuseum for $5.

FFVII PC version for 20 dollars. (Near the release date of it.)
Tekken Tag, 4, and 5 for 40 dollars in all.
When FFX released, I got it brand new along with a new copy of FFVII for the PS1 for a total of $40 off of eBay. My favorite purchase of all-time.

That's pretty much the best deal I've got. Although, given the amount of time I've lost to it and how much fun I've had, Super Smash Bros. Melee for $25 was a great deal, in my opinion.
Well the only good bargin I've ever found around here was Xenosaga II for $30AUD (when EB Games were selling it for $99AUD at the same time).
Never found anything else. =\
I found a new copy of Drakengard and purchased it for $6.00.
I would SOOoooo pay more for it if I had to though.
I found Star Ocean 2 for $20 NZD
I also found Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain for $5
Sadly, thats all ive gotten in terms of really good deals. At least, its all I can remember...
I found Final Fantasy VII for £5. But I don't know if that's a good deal or not.
These days, FFVII tends to sell for around £18-£25, so you did quite well there.Quote:

I bought Suikoden II for $15 I think. I played it for 20 minutes, didn't like it and gave it away to someone for free. Can't imagine why people like it so much.
Back in the early 90's when games on CDs were relatively new I got a couple CDs with 5-10 PC RPGs each on them. One had Populous on it and another had Populous 2, which are really great games. One had Might & Magic III, another great game. I got a King's Quest that way too, can't remember which one. You never know what you'll find in a bin of crap no one else will buy.
I believe DMKA purchased Valkyrie Profile for $5. Don't hold me to that though.
PC version of Serious Sam- 3 dollars
PC version of Phantasy Star Online- Free
Suikoden III- 25 dollars
Dragon Warrior VII- 20 dollars
Being able to have fun yet have a full wallet- Priceless.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha :lol: :laugh: :hahaha: :upsidedow :laughing: :monster2: :yamete:Quote:
