He also missed Tomba and Tomba 2. I played a demo of the original Tomba and I'd still love to find a copy of it to play. Same deal with Intelligent Qube, but I know my chances of finding a non Ebay priced copy of either is slim to nil nowadays.

I actually HAVE Alundra(disc only) from the Gamestop 75% off clearance from over a year or more ago. I also found a single disc from the Arc The Lad Collection in the menagerie of games they had sitting there in the massive binload they had of them, but I never did find the rest.

I'm not sure if it's so much 'rare' as maybe uncommon, but what about Silent Hill as well? As for the game list, I gotta ask what kind of game Beyond The Beyond is, since I swear I saw multiple copies of it in the 75% off bin and I passed every one of them up.

Segasonic01,

Einhander, Ehrgeiz, R-Types, G-Darius, Blast Lacrosse, Worms Armageddon, Team Buddies, Poy Poy, and Silent Hill are some of the rare titles that I can think of not on your list.

I can honestly say that Poy Poy is one of the worst in' games I've ever played in my life and I've played ET on the Atari 2600 and State Of Emergency. I had no idea it was a 7 on Digit Press' rarity guide. I traded it to another CAG a while back for a copy of Treasures Of The Deep for PS1.

It must be rare because people got sick from the putrid gameplay and broke the discs in half. It was truly atrocious.

Ah well....

I actually liked state of emergency. Not a masterpiece or anything, but still a fun stupid game.

How the did I forget Silent Hill, one of my favorite games ever?! Tomba 1 I found for $3 & Tomba 2 I found for $6, so I put those as well.

Behold the pawn shop King!

Not at full price, it wasn't. It released a bit after GTA III and before the hype machine for it had died down completely. So many people(myself included) thought that that game was going to be some phenomenal title, much like many of us considered GTA III at the time.

However, it got old quick when it seemed like more than half of the missions were 'find this person, escort them to point b'. When it was initially being touted as a 'riot simulator' by some, that's what I expected.

I expected a game where you got points for looting and pillaging and had a chance to annihilate other people from the crowd if they got in your way.

It was the last game I actually pre-ordered for any system, though I do admit that I recently pre-ordered and bought Mercenaries 2.

Picked up TrickStyle (sealed) for the DC, and Microcosm for the Sega CD (complete) for $5 for the pair. Hm.

^ nice.

We've got an AmeriPawn in town over here. Problem is, some of the prices are a bit high. In the trip I made recently they had a Sega Master System for $60, PS1 for $30 and some NES games that ranged from $3 to $10 (looked to be cartridge only).

We also have a Shallow Grave in town and a Disc Replay out by work. Went to look for a Saturn and found out that each had a $40 tag on them.

Just no luck at pawns and resales out here.

AmeriPawn...no shit. I worked at that store for about two years! Now I'm at Pawn King in Merrillville. We price most of our systems and common games much lower than Ameripawn, but since I'm here now, we put the rare stuff up on ebay.

Oh shit. I work in Westfield Mall over in Merrillville. I'll have to come and find you guys and take a look and say "Hi."

I'm down the street in Schererville. Got any Dreamcast stuff by chance?

Nothing special, Tony Hawk something and maybe a sonic adventure. We've got some decent Saturn stuff though, Shinobi, Sonic R, a couple more decent titles.

Segasonic, you have the best pawn shops I have ever heard of. You find so many rare, good games for cheap. IF I find anything rare, and thats a big IF, its nowhere near as cheap as you get them for. My city and surrounding areas suck.

So, there is a local store around me that deals with Video games, vinyls, comics, and books. I had previously found a Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Shadow Hearts: From the New World guide there. I decided to take 1 each of my penny guides (nothing rare or anything) and trade them in. It was about 25 guides. Here is what I came out of there with in return for them...










I'd say I made out pretty good, eh?

^OMG I want that Sonic 1 & 2 guide. Nice find

I'll gladly give you shipping for the Metal Gear guide.

That's the exact MGS guide my one local shop had in stock for what seemed like forever. It figures though, that once I found out what it was worth, it was LONG GONE.

Nice haul though, Antic. Wanna trade one of those RPG guides for one of my uber common Crysis guides that I now have TEN of? lol

can guides really be worth that much?

what is the most expensive guide? and how much do they usually sell for?
