^ I remember RE: Survivor being bad, too, when it first came out. But since the entire series has taken a turn for the worse, I was willing to take another chance on it for only $5. I'm not going into it with the same expectations this time.

Nice, those look really cool. A series I have always been slightly interested in, but know nothing about. I always almost buy 6,7 or 8 off of Steam, but can never quite pull the trigger.

I'm kind of the opposite.  I buy a lot of Wizardry games, but can never find time to play them ha.

Flea Market purchases today, at a $5 table!



Found Survivor's younger brother Dead Aim today. I HATE this game, but for $2 I thought what the hell. I played it a little tonight and it isn't as awful as I remember, but still pretty craptastic lol.

I remember kinda liking Dead Aim, but then again, I was never a huge fan of the original RE's.

I remember playing Survivor and thinking it wasn't that bad. At least not as bad as all the reviews at the time made it out to be.

Dead Aim is actually a pretty decent game it just really needs to played with the Guncom 2. If you're playing it with the standard Dual Shock than it's not going to be very much fun. A lot of people did play it that way and that's probably how it got a bad reputation.

I am going to try it out with the Guncon 2. The first time I played it I actually bought it brand new along with a Mad Katz gun. The thing wasn't well calebrated which definitely added to my issues with the game, but overall I didn't like the gameplay, hated the characters and found the story boring. I was also a diehard fan of the core RE games which probably tainted my opinion of Dead Aim as well.

I picked up Cave Story 3D yesterday. It was brand slappin new on a game store shelf. Now I have a dilemma. This thing is going for around $100 on eBay. I bought this stupid thing for $40 as a collector knowing this thing is rare. Do I make a quick buck ir do I just hang onto it and play it?

Value aside, it is a really fun game. I don't think it will ever be worth less than $40 so unless you get lucky some day and find a super cheap copy, I think it's the best price you'll get on it ever. That is unless NIS decides to do another print run, then the value might change, but for now, I'd hold onto it. I picked it up used at a game store for $25 a month or two ago. It was a good deal then, but didn't realize it had climbed in price so much since then.

Why can't this happen to people who want the game?
