You dont have to tell me dude. This are two of my favorites.


I ended up purchasing the deal tonight and everything looks awesome but there was one major disappointment with the items. Everything was just as described and in excellent (almost flawless) condition..... but the one game that didn't come with a case or manual.... the one game..... just had to be..... Marvel vs Capcom 2. The disc looks really good and came in a slim case but still.... sad stuff for the collector and gamer that I am....

Sooooo it wasn't quiet perfect but still a great deal considering all things. Now its time to sort through what I want to keep and what I need to post for sale here on the forum..... :)

Thanks for the support of me making the purchase guys! It always makes buying easier and more exciting!

Go for it, if the games are complete. PD Saga complete goes for that much by itself.

I think you have got a great deal going for those two so go for it! Then again....I just bought both of these games but the Japanese versions for a total of $40 shipped. This is only because I couldnt afford the US editions high price tag and still wanted to have them in my hands technically.


But enough about me! If you have got the $ ..... go for it and enjoy the hell out of them both!

Shoot -

Sorry for making another thread for that guys. I'm still new, I'll learn I promise!

Anybody else with an opinion though, Panzer Dragoon Saga plus Shining the Holy Ark for $175? Both are complete and mint/near mint. It's just SO much money for two games.

Question for those of you who have 3DOs... should I get a Gamepad 6, or SNES-to-3DO controller converters? Just wondering if either of them is inferior or something.
