Any of you wanting an old game really badly, but you can just never seem to get it?

Amazingly, No

because of this fantastic small shop
called "GamesMasters" up leith
pretty much all PC games = £2.50
all the PS1 games = £5 or lower

I love it <3

I came into this topic to moan a little, but may well have found myself a good tip. Is it on the walk? Whereabouts?

Just take the number 16 bus, on the side with waterworld, about 5-10 minute walk up from there, or..bus it all the way, it stops right outside

Dead Rising.

It's an 18 and I'm 17. So I can't buy it myself.

Whenever I happen to have my dad around I can't afford it though.

God damn it I want Dead Rising...

I hope you're ready for the most frustrating boss fights.... EVER.

System Shock 2, ever since I swapped to Vista. I was PISSED. It got so bad that I eventually tried torrenting (*gasp*), but even that didn't work. Looks like I'll never get to play it again...

Similar to this, I tried for years to get X-Com: Apocalypse to work on a non-DOS PC. Then it finally got released on Steam about a year ago - problem solved.

I don't think I will ever find another copy.

The 16? Not sure that runs from my neck of the woods, but I think I know roughly where you mean. As an aside, is Waterworld as fun as it sounds? I've passed by it a few times and have found myself intrigued.

It's good..haven't been in a while though, but even if you get off at the foot of the walk, it's about a 10 minute walk up, so it's not too bad

I was trying to find a used copy of Force Unleashed the other day, but couldn't find a copy at Gamestop

Also, I can get God Of War collection off my friend. he has two copies.

Other than that, im having trouble

Well if you really can't find them then torrent them. Yes I know, but God and the developers will understand

Im starting to consider it. Also, come of them I can get through steam, which is good

Hell yeah! Do you know how hard it is to find SNES games where I live?
Seriously, Zelda: A Link to the Past is the TOP SELLING SNES GAME OF ALL TIME, and I can't find a single copy ANYWHERE! RAAAAAAGE!

Sometimes I wish that The Escapist had some kind of game trading program, that would be awesome!

i use a site called goozexdotcom. not trying to spam but u can trade old games to get new games and trade new games for old games

I was EXTREMELY lucky to snag a copy of Silent Hill 2 at a local marketplace. Guy obviously didn't know it's value either, cause he sold it to me for 10 [australian] dollars.

Aside from that, I have been craving Crash Bandicoot 1, 2 and 3 of lately. Also, Spyro: Year Of The Dragon, purely for nostalgic reasons. Wut, dont laugh.
