They removed the "Gothic" reference from the title, which is a bit of a strange choice. But yeah, the PS3 version is quite obscure. I'd like to get Arcania eventually - I'll probably just go for the Xbox 360 original as I don't think I really need the expansion pack.

About Akiba's Trip...... I'll be picking that one up too, but there's no way I'll get it on PS3 when I can have it on Vita.

Gaijinworks is currently gauging interest in releasing a physical edition for their upcoming PS3 RPG Class of Heroes 2G. It's an enhanced version of their recently released PSP RPG that will include dual play with your psp / psvita.

If anyones interested in the limited edition physical release, add yourself to the poll via their website: http://www.gaijinworks.com/

Currently sitting around 1400 signups, needs 7000. If it doesn't make it, it will be released as a digital download only. If this does get a physical edition, it will surely be collectible.

Used copies are still cheap though.
Amazon is about the worst place on earth to buy a "new" game once Amazon itself runs out of copies. Once amazon's out of the way a lot of the resellers seem to loose their shit and start charging ridiculously inflated prices.
You're right, i was checking on assasins creed heritage collection and it is about 100$ and ebay is barely 60$.

Here's a strange one that was released over the summer and that I've only seen in the wild once. It's a port of the PC game and comes with the original Painkiller and the expansion Battle Out of Hell. The game was praised for its graphics but received mixed reviews for glitchy AI. There is also apparently a CE.

Well Retrogamer0001 you were right about Metal Gear Solid: The Legacy Collection. I did not expect that the prices for this would go up so fast. It appears to be sold out everywhere as well.

I see that... surprised it happened so soon, but it had all the ingredients for a collector's item. Maybe I can still luck out and grab a copy somewhere...

In my opinion, this one is a collector's item just waiting to happen. I haven't heard a single word about it online and it seems to have been released with little fanfare outside the Metal Gear community. I'm not sure about the print run, but I doubt copies are flying off retail shelves.
I bought this game DIRECTLY from Amazon on March 7th for $52.61 shipped with Prime, and all the new copies are now $73 or higher on the 17th, and NOT sold DIRECTLY from Amazon, which leads me to believe it is out of print and will only go up from $73 for a NEW copy.

All games are ON DISC, except for MGS1 and VR missions, and i doubt those 2 games are going to make a used copy worth any less if the dlc code has been used.
