Yeah guys! I bet there's been a time in your life where you have gotten an incredible deal on a game! Or even games!
I remember when I had pawned my PS2 so that I was able to go on a trip on such short notice. And later on I had no Playstation or Playstation 2 to play games on, especially games that I had picked up for the Playstation and/or Playstation 2. So I had asked a friend if I could borrow his PS1 so that I could play Mega Man X6. And he did'nt mind so he let me borrow it. And he had forgotten that he left his Castlevania: SotN in the PS so it was in my possesion at the time. After I had finished MMX6, I tried SotN, since I had only heard about it, but it did'nt seem too interesting for whatever reason. But I ended up putting it in the PS1 and turning it on, and I remember just messing around in it, but after a while, I kinda just started playing it and I really liked it. So I was like "Wow, this game is sweet, I gotta have it" So I check up on EBay, looking for copies, and to my surprise, I had found out that it was a rare title, even more rare was the non-greatest hits version, which was the version my friend had, which was the same one I was playing at the time. I was simply amazed that the game was easily reaching 80 plus dollars for the original black border version, and 50 plus for the GH version.
So there was no way I was going to spend that much on a PS1 game. So I decide to try the local EB's, pawn shops, flee markets, etc. etc. Not one place in the entire city had the game. I was getting irritated. SotN was really a rare find outside of Ebay. Eventually, I gave up and decided to just bite the bullet and eventually pick up a copy on Ebay later on. So after a while, my friend was asking for the PS1 back and Castlevania as well, since he needed to have surgery and he was selling all of his old systems so that he would be able to pay for it. I told him that I would take SotN off his hands, and he told me that I could just have it. I was totally siked! All of my hard worked eventually paid off so I did'nt have to pay a dime for this rare game.
Anyways, what are some awesome deals on games that people on this board have gotten on games? Let's hear them!
