rare games worth your wallet???
rare games worth your wallet???
I just read racketboy's rare treasures for the xbox system and even though I do have a couple of these titles mainly mvc2 and a few other gems he listed I wonder is it worth the cost of your wallet? I currently have no over 90 titles and I'm almost done with my collection I saw these and wondered should i just get these rare titles just for bragging rights? I probably wont play games like fatal frame and the halo series i already own and i have gta vice city I do want Jedi knight but other than that I'm not willing to spend 30 -50 dollars for an xbox title. I've already dumped enough money in the games i already own and have you really played any of those games, I mean some of the rare titles are good but some games are ridiculuos. I'm talking about any system some titles are great and if your a collector fine but an average gamer I say its not worth it. What do you guys say unless you have no bills or responsibilities or bills or kids for that matter I say no what do you guys say? bottom line is some rare games worth collecting even though the game sucks but is rare

for most of the xbox titles, i would not go drop big money to simply have them, but if you see one for a steal, i would of course pick it up, fatal frame is actually pretty fun, i would consider getting it if i were you

I would say for most of the Xbox titles I would not drop big money to simply have them unless you find a bargain then pick it up. There are some collectors who would but as for me I'm basically set for my Xbox collection there may be few titles but nothing major left to get..

I hate to mention them, but GameStop is trying to unload there Xbox stock and many great titles can be had very cheaply. Good luck getting the stickers off though.

the cool thing about that is that they dont take the games in anymore, so people are bringing their xbox games to my store! Which increases my chances of finding some nifty stuffcorn619 wrote:I hate to mention them, but GameStop is trying to unload there Xbox stock and many great titles can be had very cheaply.

Re: rare games worth your wallet???
sadly it does not, if you are ever in north east ohio, it is a small chain here and in PA called The Exchange, its a music/movie/game store, im just a regular behind the counter guy who everyone goes to for gamesAck wrote:Snickerd00dle, does your store have a website?
i would also assume that other stores that arent gamestop will be taking in the xbox titles now that gamestop isnt, so those stores will have a larger inventory

Peel them slow and lightly rub lighter fluid on the backing to get them off cleanly. I had very good success recently. Luckily when they had the sale the other week, the didnt have price stickers affixed to the inside art. The stickers we just inserted in there like a piece of paper

Re: rare games worth your wallet???
goo gone is the best for sticker removal
Re: rare games worth your wallet???
Yep - Goo Gone is great but use it very conservatively otherwise it can leave an oily mess.
As far as shelling out for any of the games on the list, geez, Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 wouls be tempting if you could find it anywhere. I've only ever owned Jedi Knight on the list, but took it back as the only FPS to ever give me motion sickness...
