The prices on ebay has jumped to ~100 dollars for case+cd...not even a manual. Whats with the sudden increase in price. Just a couple months ago they were going for 70 max complete. Did I miss something? Some online play on ps3 or something?

X-Men 3 maybe? I have no idea why this game goes for so much... I realize it's fantastic and I myself would never sell it, but these prices are crazy.

Must've been caused by the surge in oil price.

dreamcast + us version = $40 and it's the best version available. ;)

I would've flamed the shit out of you until I realized that there's like 7 DC games released in any region that are worth owning anymore...

But MVC 2 is better on DC so there.

yep, almost everything on the 'Cast has been ported to the PS2, though some of the ports aren't as good. Project Justice is the one game I'll sorely miss that I can't play on anything else.

otherwise a DC is just taking up valuable real estate on my floor. I'll take a few dropped frames ;-)

Hmm, 2 GS's with a used copy within 100 miles. Looks like $50 is the cheapest I'm going to find this, so... ROAD TRIP

call first! I've been burned by that damn locator so many times...Definately calling first, because my buddy is always getting burned at the local EB, their first response is always "it said it online...didn't it?"

with the current track record, you're lucky to get a game that works.

anyway, just decided that I need this to complete my PS2 fighting game collection.

Buy a dreamcast for $15 or $20 then download and burn the game.

Korean version has everything in English, like most fighting game imports? I'm just wondering why you chose the Korean version over the Japanese one.

And I totally agree with you about the Dreamcast.

everything but the Assist types. the korean version seems to be the most readily available, cheap import on ebay.
