Gaming Bargains

[AintIGreat]

What game have you ever bought which you have considered to be an absolute steal?

A while ago I got Internation Track and Field for PS2 brand new for £4.99 from Game. Considering I couldn't find it anywhere for about 3 years apart from Ebay I thought it was a quality purchase. Not a bad little game either, especially if you have a multi-tap. I got rid of it over a year ago for a cool £20!

I recently purchased God of War off Gameplay for £12.99 and it's just absolutely awesome. Tekken 5 is on the way now for the same price.

Oh yeah and I won't forget about EWR, £0.00 is quite a good deal I reckon.

I just got MGS3 for £9 from eBay.

X Box 360 with NFS:MW, Tony Hawk's American Wasteland, Call of Duty 2, Kameo, Perfect Dark Zero and No Mercy for the N64.

All for free.

Final Fantasy IV and V for £2.50 was probably the best one.

Also, Phantasy Star Online 3 for a fiver was good as well considering some game sites were selling it for £30.

How'd you manage that. Unless of course you got one of the fucked up 360's.

MGS3 and Getaway: Black Monday for £22 in Currys.

Both were £40 seperately, but both had 2 for £22 stickers on them. With £25 in my back pocket, I switched on my boyish charm and went to the till with them both. It came up with £79.98 on the till, but I said about the stickers on them both. After some considering, the lovely lady decided that the stickers must have been gospel truth, and so I saved myself around £60.

Other than that, Oddworld: Abe's Oddyssey on eBay for £8 is what I consider to be a great purchase. Fantastic game, worth every penny.

However, saying that, I still haven't played either MGS3 or Getaway: Black Monday due to the fact I still haven't completed their predecessors and refuse to even open the packaging before I do so.

360's fine and dandy, works brilliantly. A friend of mine scored lucky on the lottery and spent a load of it on 3 Xbox 360s. He gave me one and some games as an early birthday present and I found out my neighbour was giving his N64 away a good while ago and asked if I could have his No Mercy, lo and behold, I got it for free.

I just picked up Final Fantasy VIII for £4.20 off eBay.

Which is good because I've wanted it for years since my last one broke and other FF8's are going for £15.99.
