    Project Zero didn't get a physical release in the US if I recall correctly, so might be worth something in a few years!

    I've seen that around, kinda waiting for it to get a little cheaper before I try to buy

    Had never even seen this in stock in my local Gamestop before, pretty good for the Limited Edition. Only one they had it seems and have no idea if it was just store specific.

    Not bad, I paid a tenner more I think when it was released, I didn't see a copy IRL at all.
    It's not bad but when I was playing it, the theme was a bit close to home at the time, so I stopped playing.

    Picked up Advance Wars Dark Conflict in cex finglas for €6 earlier today. It's terrible, why oh why is it so terrible, it's like the godfather 3 level of terrible.

    This is neither here not there, but Cex Tallaght have had four copies of Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes on 'cube for a few weeks now.

    I really want it, but not €75 want it, which i think is the price on it.

    Almost positive that during my entire time working there, we had 2 copies in stock and ended up getting another 2 during my 6 months there. Don't see them selling anytime soon either.

    I'm pretty sure I had to go get the manuals from the cases and put them into the gut wall with the CDs at one point just because I don't see anyone spending that much for anything less than perfect copies.. :L

    That being said, I don't work there anymore, onto better things! :P

    I'd probably buy Gamecube games from Cex if they weren't so overpriced. Same with The Rage.

    I saw a copy of Thousand-Year Door in Cex for 80+. Haha no.

    In other news I bought Dragon Quest 8 and Bravely Default on 3DS.

    I'm pretty lucky that I don't think there are any outstanding must haves missing in my GC collection, though it is isn't as extensive as the PS2 or even Xbox selection.
    The likes of Twin Snakes, Kirby's Air Ride as well as Smash Bros and Animal Crossing were picked up in the days when buying for retro systems was still a niche sub culture and, so, cheaper.
    Now it's mainstream and just getting pricier.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,256 ✭✭✭✭CastorTroy


    I picked Twin Snakes in Woolworths for cheap back in the day. Looking at cex, it's mad they charge over twice what they give you in cash

    Gamestop gets a lot of deserved stick but CEX I've seen charge brand new prices of €75 for second hand games. I too often look at the second hand section but run for the hill when I see Paper Mario or Twin Snakes for €75 & you just know the disc is bad too. Same with Twilight Princess it's never dropped in value despite the HD remake on WiiU.
    Anyway enough ranting I bought Ace Attorney Spirit of Justice last night on whim. Hope it's good as the previous games :/

    It's a brilliant game I'm sure you'll enjoy it, I was bumping the thread for it a few weeks ago. I'd be glad to chat to you about it :)

    Bought Mario kart 8 deluxe but don't like it dare I say I hate it very much. Couple of vertigo scares playing it where the track rotates, bloody pissed as I really wanted it to be on the same level as Mario Kart 7. :(

    Haven't been able to start it yet. I've bought about 8 games in the Xbox sale & spent the week playing WWF No Mercy.

    I never liked MK7. I think I hated that they ran out of time to put in a Vs mode. I liked having the choice of playing the AI in any track without playing Grand Prix.
    Never played Mario Kart 8....

    Oh cool! I was watching a playthru that, they made Chris Beniot women's champion.

    I'd love to have a go of the older games again.
