Hey everyone! Yesterday my brother got a package in the mail Athletic World - Rerelase Brand New Sealed (H-Seam) he won on the bay for $25.00.   Yesterday morning we went back to an indoor garage sale hoping to find some retro games but sadly she didn't have any out like she said she would...but we did pick up Glover for $0.75 and Pac-Man Puzzle Board Game for $2.00.  Then we took a drive to a neighboring town to actually head home but we saw a thrit store on the way so we stopped in.  I looked around in the VHS tapes just to see if there is any video game related tapes and well I found one Pokemon Headquarters tape which was given away exclusively at Toys R Us, then I went over to the glass case and saw some games in there then I called my brother over and asked him which ones I should buy.  SO I purchased the ones we really needed (by far the best stuff they actually had there) I got Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil (CIB) $4.00, Fear Effect 2: Retro Helix (CIB) $6.00, and the VHS tape was a $1.00.  Then we drove to Half Price Books becasue occassionally they get some really good games (they had Final Fantasy VIII import soundtrack for $50.00 A little to expensive for my taste)  and we picked up LucasArts Air COmbat Classics (CIB) $10.00 (My brother got that), I purchased Quake iI Strategy Guide - $2.00, and Prince of Persia Graphic Novel Vol. 1 - $2.00.  THEN we went to Goodwill and they had a ton of PC game we purchased 7th Guest (Win 95 CD Version) - $6.00, Deus Ex - $6.00, Homeworld - $8.00, Lighthouse: The Dark Being - $8.00, Shivers - $8.00 and Shivers II: Harvest of Souls - $8.00 ALL are CIB, Duke Nukem 3D - $2.00 and Casper Greatest Hits (PS1) for $2.00.  Then we went an Indoor Flea Market and a store attached to it.  At the Flea Market Pocahontas Genesis (CB) $2.00 (Anyone have a manual I can purchase???) , then we went to the store attached to there and purchased Police Quest Collection for $5.00 and Return to Zork - $5.00.  Well that was out adventure yesterday nothing seriuously rare but a good haul none the less.  Hope you all enjoy! (Sorry about the HPB picture flash over took).

There is just something so comforting I find about large box PC games.  Maybe the potential that one could hold, that there could easily be not only an instruction book with wire binding, but also a foldout reference card and cloth map (that smells faintly of moth balls).
 
I never liked the big PC boxes because they were so big.  I'd much prefer it if disc games came in cases as small and thin as blu ray cases.

Hey everyone. My brother and I have collected a lot of games throughout the years. We have a huge collection of games spanning from Pong Systems to the most recent systems. We also have Japanese systems and lot of cool video game related items. Check out our blogs from time to time because we "score" a lot at our video game stores, flea markets, and of course eBay.
