I decided to finish off this current generation of game systems by getting all the games I want for the PS2 / GC and XBOX that are on my wishlist. So, I guess I have officialy bought my last XBOX and GC games. There are only 2 PS2 games that I want that have been released (Magna Carta and Dot Hack 4) that I'll still be on the look out and 4 that will be released in the future, but other than that I'm done.

It's kind of where I am with the SNES -- just 4 to go.

So here's today's bag, all used, all complete:
Twisted Metal Black $5.95 (A re-purchase)
dot hack 2 $24.65
Cubivore $24.65
Call of Cthulu $15.30
Ninja Gaiden $8.41
Return to Castle Wolfenstein $4.24

So, here are the final tallies for this generation:
XB - 87 games
PS2 - 81 games
GC - 40 games

The Playstation 'won' in terms of titles, because the only reason the XB has more is because I bought all multi-plaform games on the XB (which has to be at least 30 of the games). That's a bit of a surprise to me, because I always saw myself as an XBox kind of guy, but it had a late start and and early finish.

I am still torn on GU (or is it Fragment? I don't pay a lot of attention to the .hacks). I did manage to find another "getting scarce" PS2 game tonight:

Under the Skin, new/sealed, $14.99.

They also had copies of Unison and Super Bombad Racing, but both were w/o instructions, so I passed on them. Does anyone here own Woody Woodpecker: Escape from Buzz Buzzard Park on the PS2? I recently found a list of PS2 games that are speculated to be or to become the rare titles on that system. A majority I own or already knew about, but not that one. I have found copies of all the games on this speculated rare list on eBay for $10-20, so there's no rush yet, but if you find WWEFBBP or copies of Hot B's Soccer America (another I'd never heard of) for a low price and rarity's your thing, you may want to take action before peoples' collective attention turns to buying up rare PS2 games once collectors figure out which ones they are. I think that the Bode Miller skiing games might get added to that list, b/c I don't see it too often anymore (not that I want to play a downhill skiing game).

Also, I nearly picked up a copy of the Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker Limited Edition (the split cover NA release, not the all-gold PAL version) today on eBay, but its price has gone from about $35 a few months ago to $58 this morning, so I decided to watch a few more sell before I settle on what the going rate is. I'd really like to get that thing, but I've already got copies of both Wind Waker and the Ocarina/Master Quest disc. A friend of mine had a copy of the game in question, and he was going to trade it to me, but what he wanted in trade was my mint, complete copy of Chrono Trigger. I flatly refused, which is still the right decision, but I have only seen a handful of copies of the game since. I once called Nintendo to see if I could buy one from them directly, but the rep I spoke with had no idea that the LE version even existed. It's uncommon, shall we say.

I have a PS3 pre-ordered, 4 of 16 at my store. But that system is being sold and used as a way to fund other game purchases.Yagami-Iori

Yesterday, I picked up Mortal Kombat: Armageddon Premium Ed. (PS2) and Okami (PS2). I tried to get God Hand, but nobody had a single copy so I just put an order in for it at eStarland.com. The idea I got from talking to some is that there will be few copies of the game in stores. Anyone else get that same feeling?usagi704

Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker Limited Edition -- I am pretty sure I have that edition, I'll check when I get home.aspro73

So much for that. Trace Memory - New $19 DKonga 2 - New $14 Dkonga 1 - Used, complete $13 The Suffering - XBX - Used, complete $8

Trace Memory's a good one, so is the Suffering; Good prices.

I am glad I got VP at the time (I mistook it for Vagrant Story).  Secret of Mana was a good pick-up, as was Taiko -- if you have not played it yet open up one of those puppies.  Anti-grav with Eye-Toy is a nice pick-up also.  And now, for some reason, I want Ribbit King.  I think I'll go on over to my TRU today.  Strangely, there are hardly any in my area (I only know of 1 that is within 15 miles of here).

Sounds like a fun day.
