Yeah someone got me RE 4 for my b-day and I was shocked by how good it was. Best ps2 game imo.delta4062 said:
A friend of mine had got The Last Remnant and I'd watched him playing it and it looked awesome so I headed over to The Final Level with the intention of buying it but found out I didn't have enough, because I really wanted to play something I picked up Ninety Nine Nights solely because I had enough and the trailer playing in the store looked pretty cool. Really loved the game, but I still want The Last Remnant XD
I can't think of anything recently, so I'd have to say World of Warcraft.
It came down to;
"When you die, do you lose all your gear?"
"No."
"I'll take it."

Oh i've had this on many occasions. Sometimes resulting in good, sometimes bad.willsham45 said:
It's nice though when you find a game you've never heard of either just in store as you say or on a forum or whatever and it turns out to be good.
Most recently I was looking for driving games featuring motorways and I found Alarm fúr Cobra 11, its not a bad lil gem tbh.
Another one would proberbly be Transport Tycoon, one of the first examples of this happening actually. Back in about '95 or '96 i went into Electronics Beutique(Now known As GAME) and was looking for Rollercoaster Tycoon, I found what I was looking for at £19.99 but next to it was a triple box set, Rollercoaster Tycoon, Transport Tycoon, Railroad Tycoon all for £19.99, so obviously I got the box set, loved Rollercoaster Tycoon and played it for a while then tried the other 2. Railroad Tycoon i just couldn't get into but Transport Tycoon, well, I still sometimes play it now once in a while.
Probably Soldiers: heros of WW2, Didn't have a clue what the gameplay or whatnot was like. Only knew when it was set. (obvioulsy)
wow how is it possible to sell a game at that price that came out so recently, especially one that hassnt had a price drop in most places.Mana Fiend said:Fallout 3. I rarely research games to begin with, but I picked this one up blind due to the contrast of the front and back pictures; and thought it looks interesting. It was also £6 from a supermarket (), so I thought 'why not?'.
Counter stike: scource, to tell you the truth i originaly just wannted it for more stuff in garrys mod, but now i still play it to this day.
The only thing that comes to mind is Timesplitters 2. My friends and I knew nothing about the game but the box art looked interesting, so one day I rented it. Probably one of the best gaming decisions I've ever made.
Other than that though, I usually research the game pretty heavily before buying.

No it was retail.. And it was a new copy of it.. Some sort of special offer at our local GAME. It was quite recently so the Godfather wasnt exactly a new game but still, I was so shocked by the low price that I just picked it up on the way past.. I mean it costed less than a chocolate bar for gods sake..whaleswiththumbs said:
