Best Gaming Deal You Ever Had

[RetroVortex]

Hey its RV here! And I got a nice little topic for all of ya!

What is the best deal you've ever had gaming wise?

Its a tough one for me.

I got fallout 3 for £7, (near mint, where it was £25 pre-owned everywhere!), Toejam and Earl III for £3.69, and recently I picked up Shin Megami Tensei: Lucifer's Call for the PS2, near mint (the disc literally had 3 tiny scratches)for £5 from HMV (they really do not know the value of games! XD)

Audiosurf for £1.50 was a sweet deal too.
In fact I've had so many sweet deals I just can't decide! :confused:

How about you? :D

I got Genesis' Sonic The Hedgehog for 5 reais ( 1 dollar = 1,74199943 reais )
:cool:

golden sun 1 for gba, just the cartridge for 6€. apart from that I don't think I have done any great deal... I normally buy games for 15£-20£ in uk websites.

The recent Steam Holiday Sale has been ridiculously good to me. Great deals every day, and I've pulled a couple of games I've always wanted for about $5 or so (at savings from 50% to 80% off).

The scary thing about this ladies and gentlemen is that he actually knows where I live, and has randomly shown up at my house before! :(

I really should implement better security! :D

On the serious side, The steam sale was pretty good. Oddworld Abe's Odyssey and Exodus for 2 pound was a lovely buy, but I was dissappointed on some days.

I remembered I also picked up Rogue Galaxy for a fiver, (great condition too, next day the other pre-owned copy shot straight up to 15 pounds).

Panzer dragoon orta was a nice find for a fiver as well.

Capcom Vs SNK 2 EO and Dead Or Alive Ultimate were my best finds on the Xbox.

CvsSNK2 was 2 pounds, whilst Dead Or Alive Ultimate was just 99p! XD

Well I don't really know the best deal I've ever had specifically, but there were some pretty good NES games I bought at Gamestop... until they stopped selling them :(

Those steam holiday sales have got lots of my money :(
Damn good games.

I hate it that they did so because now it's harder to find them; I know of a great place for stuff like that, but it takes much longer to get to there than if the local Gamestop still sold them.

As far as deals go if they're not for my Birthday or at the Holidays -getting them for free- then no I've really never had a good deal.

My friend wanted to sell me Pokemon Diamond. He did and I stole the money I paid him within a few minutes. My property, it's a "gift" to me.:D

I won a game by getting a review of by favorite game published in a newspaper (wrote about Worms: Armageddon on PC, got Nascar '08 for Xbox 360).

Can't get any better than free! ;)

Funnily enough I'd pay money to keep NASCAR out of my life.

Oh, yeah, I've won an official Ferrari Wheel and Skate with a double VGL VIP ticket. xD
I had aready bought a VIP ticket for another day, but then they've cancelled one of the shows, so I took 2 more friends with me.
On the meet and greet, I said to Tommy I had tickets for the both days, and intended to go on the other as well, he stood admired. I would have gladly bought tickets for the second day as well, if I didn't have won, but maybe not VIP, they're pricy xD.

Oh, just bought The Chronicles of Riddick Assault on Dark Athena for X-Box 360 for €6.

Here in Brazil games are ridiculously expensive. So my best deal was buying cheap games from Amazon and have them send them to my friend in a hotel in Las Vegas, as he was there on vacation.
