What's the best deal you got on a game?

[OpiateChicken]

I just bought Batman: Arkham Asylum today for 360 for $11. The electronics store I work at screwed up the price tags and still haven't noticed it, even though it's listed on our website for $59. A few years ago I got the Orange Box for $9.

Protip: Pirated games don't count.

NOTE: if anyone living in Vancouver or Calgary wants me to buy them a copy of the $11 Batman game while the price is still what it is, message me.

I bought the first 3 DMC games, the first 3 Jak and Daxter games, and the first 3 Ratchet and Clank games, along with a PS2 for $60.

My boyfriend gives me games he's finished with (or doesn't have time to play) for free. Ours is a beautiful relationship.

I just bought Neverwinter Nights on GoG.com for ten bucks. After years of watching the price on Ebay climb to $80 I was pretty happy with that.

$80? Seriously? That's utterly ridiculous.

Got S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 1 & 3 for $5

I usually prefer hard copies, but you just gotta love Steam holiday sales.

 

[Bravo 21]

Portal, for free. also BF1942+Expansion Packs+BFV for $15

 

[Berserker119]

$5 for Pokemon Crystal from a friend. Best deal ever.

I got my copy of Bioshock for free so that was pretty good. Best deal I got where I actually had to pay would be a copy of Devil May Cry I bought for 12 dollars, until I found out I could have easily borrowed it from a friend that is.

Bought a new copy of the first Kingdom Hearts for about $10 about four or five years back.

$10 bucks for a clean 40 hours is a pretty good ratio in my book.

 

[Iskander_Estel]

Tales of Symphonia for like 8 dollars back on his days
and Zelda Collectors Edition in change for Fifa Street.

 

[WaywardHaymaker]

I bought Mass Effect from a local game shop for 10 bucks, and I'm gonna try to buy Spiderman 2 from a friend for 5 to 10. I don't know which is a better deal; they're both games that I absolutely love.

A friend recently got me to play WoW. Boy was he pissed when I got the entire game plus Cataclysm for about $64.

 

[bl4ckh4wk64]

Rainbow 6 vegas 2, gears of war 1 and. 2, and red dead redemption for a 20$ laser pointer/pen combination thing.

 

[TeeBs]

Not really a game but I bought Neon Genesis Evangelion the complete series for 5$ do to a pricing error, I like to think god did it.

NWN has a pretty dedicated following. Towards the end it became really rare. The MAC version was almost impossible to find for less than a C-bill. Oddly enough that price has dropped since the PC version was made available online, but it's still close to fifty bucks.

That's still pretty crazy, I remember buying mine in either the diamond or platinum edition in a game store over here in Aus, it came with Shadows of Undrentide and Hordes of the Underdark, and while I can't remember quite how much I paid for it, but I'm sure it was less than $50. $80 just seems nuts to me.
