I found a PS2 copy of Rez locally for $45 if anyone wants it. I got the only other copy they had! :D

I'm NEVER selling my copies of Panzer Dragoon Saga or Spiderman Web of Fire. I could probably use the money they are going for nowadays, but I bought 'em new and I'm not letting go of them!

I've seen a lot of Japanese copies of Rez for Dreamcast go for around $40, I plan to buy one once I get some cash. :)

Treasure games on the rise
Rez is on the way down....


Should have sold my copy of Rez a few weeks ago ahead of the hype over the re-release. Damn. Maybe I'll just keep it as a collector's item, even though I'm currently playing it on XBLA.

Yep. I always check out the rare cases at game shops to see what they have and I've not seen RS for less than $150/16,000Y in the last few years.

I picked up mine 2 months ago for 20 including shipping. You just gotta watch ebay. It took a while, I watched it for about 3 months before I got it at that price.

I saw a brand new copy of Ikaruga (GC) at toysrus for $10. I had no idea what it was at the time, so I didn't buy it.

After finding out what it was, I ran back to the store... but to no avail.

Ikaruga (DC) $60
