Just cause someone asks 12k doesnt mean its worth it. I see Sonic all the time for a couple dollars. To pay 12k for it cause its wrapped in plastic and in a VGA box is beyond comprehension.

Agreed.

Picked up the PS3 Journey: Collector's-Edition (includes: Journey, Flow, Flower, 3 (previously unreleased) That Game Company "Mini-Games", OST's for all 3 games, 'additional content' ("Making-Of", etc); and it comes w/ a Free, 1 month trial for PS+ (which, I already have).

Funny...I hadn't even heard anything about this collection being released...

Also picked up Dead Island.

Both games were ~$20/Each - still new & sealed; so...Meh

Its funny you mention that Journey game. Ive never heard of that line of games til 2 days ago. I went to Best Buy and the sales guy there was pushing the hell out of that game. He could not stop talking about it ... one of the ones on there you are a flower petal just flying around ... odd for sure.

Wasn't Flower one of the games that they were really hyping before the PS3 came out?  Once the system came out, though, I didn't hear about Flower again...

On the subject of those 3, they are really more "experiences" than they are games - the goals are usually pretty simplistic and there's very little danger at all.  Of course, that's not to say they're not worth playing.  I would urge everyone on this board to at least play Journey, as the final stretch of it is absolutely breathtaking; a perfect fusion of imagery, music and a sense of freedom.

Anyway, taking off my artiste glasses now.  Picked up R-types and R-type Delta both CIB

A former roommate had one and took it with him when he left, so I still have a controller (he refused to buy more than the one he had, even though there were 3 gamers in the house) and a handful of PS3 games :\

A good day today.  No amazing finds, but some solid pickups.  Paid $20 total for:

NES - 1942, Burai Fighter, Al Unser Turbo Racing
PS1 - Blood Omen, Tomb Raider, Tekken 2, Tenchu
PS2 - Manhunt
360 - FEAR3, Dante's Inferno

I mentioned I picked up Tekken 2.  It's funny because earlier in the day I found and picked up a Tekken 2 strategy guide at a different garage sale, then I end up finding the game on the other side of town an hour later :D

I have Shadows of Amn. Wonder if we could pass the games back and forth and install them both on both of our computers?
