what game do you regret passing up when you had the chance

I have a serious feeling that I'm going to regret not buying Panzer Dragoon Saga for $200. I saw it for that price recently, and I've been wondering if it's really worth it.

The limited edition SOTN for £15 (it was on offer, 2 for £25 at HMV too) . Y'know, the one with the artbook, soundtrack cd the lot? Man do I feel stupid now...

The sickener? I passed it up because I took a look at the back of the box and thought it 'looked shit'. I have no idea what I bought instead.

Swapped Tombi for Klonoa, which I then traded in for Gran Turismo. I got hundreds of hours out of Gran Turismo but to consider I traded one of the rarest games for PS1 up for another rare PS1 game to only go and trade it in for one of the biggest selling PS1 games... Doh, egg and face is in alignment.

i can think of two games! this actually makes me quite upset when i think of it. megman legends 2 in favor for omega boost (which is still a good game) and the other was alundra. i have also gotten rid of a lot of great games including most of the ps1 squaresoft titles like ehrgiez, final fantasy tactics, vagrant story (yeah i know :cry: ), and threads of fate. now im on a hunt of recollecting those games....ironic isn't it? im so glad i left the trading to stores addiction behind. now to figure out how to solve the getting bad games issue. :lol:

When I was younger, I saw Stadium Events for sale. If only I had known then what I know now. :(

wasn't stadium events only released in 1 region in the country, sort of like a test market?

I saw Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence: Limited Edition new at Walmart back when it could still be found at retail. It cost less new than what it's worth used now.

Oh dude, that sucks so, so badly.

Oh, and to the haruhi girl, if it was a used copy of panzer dragoon saga, than $200 is actually a rip off, you can find the thing complete for $80. If it was a NEW copy, then yeah, you totally should have picked it up.
