Call of Juarez, took me ages to find the frigging thing. I wasn't prepared to buy it off Steam at the time, but I eventually ran across it for a good price.KOTOR 2 was hard to come by as well by the time I got around to playing it.

I actually struggled to find a hard copy of Crysis in shops, they're really going out of their way to kill PC gaming.

Shadow Of The Colossus and Shadow Of Rome, which I got both for cheap.


Now it's Sly 3.
actually, i did have a bit of trouble finding Sly 3. i eventually found it at EB after 3 weeks of looking. Twas a fun game.... until i lost it *weeps*
Sly 2 is everywhere, Sly 1 not so much (Lucky back when they came out, and I was a lot younger my mother enjoyed it, So she would buy it Day one, If it wasn't for my mother I never would have gotten to play Sly or Jak...)Sly 3 is just a ***** to find.
i believe there are a few copies of it on ebay right now..... actually, im gonna go check.
No need, There is a PS3 Collection of it coming out at the end of the year.

Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines, Not too hard to find unless you want a new copy which is impossible, some people charging ridiculous amounts for it but well worth a buy.
They also have shit tons of new copies at my local GAME store for around 10 bucks.
I remember picking it up for £5 the week after its release because of the game breaking bug in it. Was so happy!

For me it was probably Red Alert: Aftermath when I was about 13. My dad and I were driving around for 3 hours trying to find a copy.

Soul Nomad for PS2.

Looked in every game shop I could find. One shop even looked in their database and they didn't even have it listed as a game that had ever been released.

I never cared for Ebay, but that's ultimately where I had to go and get it. At least it was a good seller right here in Canada. :)

It is available on Steam for 20?. Though I understand if you want a pretty box instead of a boring email reciept :)

Panzer Dragoon Saga.

When it was due to come out, I went over to my friend's gamestore every day for 2 weeks to make sure I could nab one of the only 5 copies he would ever get, as I knew everybody would be all over him to get a copy. I got the last 1, played through it and have kept it in pristine condition to this day.

I just found a new copy of Hitman Blood Money after mine stopped working two weeks ago. I've been checking all the usual supects because I remember it being a re-released budget title that was everywhere a couple of years ago. Its on steam you say? Well my monthy download limit is 5 Gb which, suprise, suprise, is how big the file is for Hitman BM, so it would cost me whatever it is in Aus dollars through steam plus $40 and my monthy download limit. I got it a a Dick Smiths for $5, they seem to be dumping all their PC games, check them out while you can Australians.

I think it was Fury of the Furries back in '93, i wanted to buy original one and not just copied for someones computer. Took me 3 trips to local computer marketplace that was hosted during weekends back in the days, before there were any serious retailers in my country.

Thanks to the internet there's not a great deal of trouble finding a game. If I had to name one it was the copy of Chrono Trigger that I got off of ebay for $40. But I still thank god for the internet, I'm always reminded of the time my mother bought a used cartridge of Final Fantasy 3 from a used game store in town, cartridge only, for $70 in 1997.

Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer

Planescape: Torment

Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines

Zone of the Enders

Zone of the Enders: The Second Runner


I've so far found one, two and four, and intend to buy Vampire the Masquerade off Steam when I get a credit card.

Zone of the Enders: The Second Runner is a pain to find. It not released new, and I've never seen it second hand either.
