[Ryuk2]

Bet on soldier. That crappy game, that you have not even heard of. (but i still liked it for having some shooty action and some original ideas)

I have a copy of Snatcher on the Mega CD which cost me a fair few pennies. The annoying thing is it cost me £5 when i purchased second hand about 10 years ago (i loved it etc), i then decided to loose it and then 18 months or so ago i wanted to repurchase this classic title. £78 it cost me! I know i paid a wee bit too much but it was in perfect condition with the manual. God i love snatcher....

Heh. I've got Night Trap, fully boxed, with manual.

Hardly worth the effort to track it down TBH.

 

[jigilojoe]

Wu-Tang Clan game, it's like Tekken, but with the Wu-Tang Clan, it's awesome.

I had a gold cartridge of LoZ: Majora's Mask. Must find it again to play it some time.

PC:
The Secret of Monkey Island
Monkey Island 2 LeChuck's Revenge
Sam and Max Hit the Road

*smack*!

Those games all sold like millions!

Eh-hem!
Mac: Escape Velocity (one of the greatest games evarrr)

PC: Bad Mojo (my copy is the PC version, at least.)

If anyone else heard of any of these games they must surely be awesome.

They did sell a lot but the originals are quite hard to find. I just thought Id mention some relatively rare games to join in the conversation. I also have:

Ecstatica 13 disk floppy edition and CD edition.
Ultima VIII
Fury of the Furries
Cyclones
F117 Stealth Fighter
Dune 2

Neo Geo CD:

I guess I don't have any particularly rare games.

 

[laughing man z]

alien vs predator on atari jaguar still boxed with inserts

 

[hermes]

I have Saint Seiya for the PS2, both of them...

Suikoden 1&2 - PS1
Tactics Ogre - PS1
Super Mario RPG - SNES
Final Fantasy 2&3 - SNES
Dragon Force - Sega Saturn

[TelHybrid]

Hmm... not really overly rare games in my collection, I sold all my rarities a while ago *shame*.

I do have Zelda Collector's Edition for Gamecube (fairly hard to come by in the UK to my knowledge), limited edition Zelda Windwaker with Ocarina of Time Master Quest, soon will have the Gamecube version of Twilight Princess if I play my cards right. Got all the PS1 Final Fantasy games (unfortunately platinum editions ), a promo edition of Ridge Racer 7, PS2 version of MGS2 Substance...

Not too bad of a collection but nothing to brag about.

Edit: Oh also have original edition Rollcage!

Oh and Half-Life Generations 3 (compilation of the whole Half-Life 1 Anthology, but consisting of the original install discs, not just a single DVD.)

 

[StercusCaput]

I

The orginal Golden Sun for the gameboy. You can't find that anywhere.

I have that one as well. It is about to be rereleased for the DS.

 

[Kaisikudo]

I had two great games; Koudelka for the PSX and Ico for PS2. I finished them both, sold them for next to nothing and didn't realise my mistake until I felt the urge to play them again one day.

Damn near impossible to find those games anywhere.

*sigh*

 

[C117]

Hmmm... UFO: Aftermath, perhaps?

 

[Textbook Bobcat]

Sealed N64 Ocarina of Time AND Majora's Mask.

Sealed Black label FFVII - IX as well. Why?

Back in the days where I wrote Christmas lists these were on the top, being the good family I got bought what I really wanted. Except no-one communicated to each other that they had purchased these.

Ten years down the line and I'm a very happy bunny.

However, pride of place is my Amiga collection. There's some bad boys in there.

 

[xenxander]

I have:
I also have the NON-greatest hits version of Xenogears, and it's unopened. (my 'greatest hits' version is opened of course).

Sorry, but you're a freak.

Owning rare games is fine, but... owning unopened games? What's the point? It's like kids who buy toys and leave them in the packaging. Keep it in pristine condition, keep hold of the manual and the box and polish them, but not even opening it? This is one of the weirdest things anyone can ever do, in my mind.

My "Greatest Hits" version IS opened and I play it a lot. The NON- greatest hits version is the rare version and yes that's unopened, which hikes the value. If I'm going to have something unopened, I'm going to have ANOTHER one that I use.

 

[Woffles]

Tengen Tetris for NES. Original box, complete with manual and cartridge sleeve. Definitely not selling this anytime soon.

Also a black case copy of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night for PS1.
