That is awesome, but my physical copy mentality keeps me away from DL'ing anything.
When the prices are so cheap, why not just consider it like a rental until you can afford the physical version?
Nope, plus most of those games are older ones that I can get for around the same price if I look hard enough.

Plus, I don't even game on my PC, I'm just stocking up on titles until I build my own rig.

I actually just got a partial refund for $30 so it only set me back $110 now!! The item was described as "pristine" and was far from it. I talked to the seller (who was amazingly sympathetic) and he offered me a partial refund to keep the game or a full refund to return it.

Oh well. I wasnt looking for the best deal around on it. I'm still happy with my purchase, although it would have been great to get it for that price.

It can sometimes be tough to beat Pawn America's prices. I have a few nearby and I always try to make it there at least once every two weeks.

Also got a gray Saturn with one controller, all cords, and some random loose soccer game for 300yen. Of course, the battery is dead but that's easy to fix.
