Sorry it's been a while since I have posted anything today there will be two different posts.
This blog is about The Game Find that my brother and I had a while back. Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis is a rare game on the PS2 and XBOX unfortunately we only have the PS2 version right now. The game is going for $30 to over $100 on eBay. We found the game at CD Tradepost here in Council Bluffs, for $17.99 a great buy at that time, because the game was going for well over $80.00 at that time. We bought it about a 3 years ago. But two weeks ago we found the Strategy Guide which is also rare and hard to come by at local book store. I will have pictures of both items on this blog so you can enjoy the beauty of both. We bought the guide brand new for $10.00 and is selling new on amazon for $200.00!!! Both are great finds and are great additions to our collection. (For a description of the game use wikipedia or mobygames).

HEY EVERYONE!!! This is going to be the first entry of my brothers' and mine Game Hunt. Also I will be posting pictures of our collection on my collection page. My brother and I went out shopping for his birthday today (which his b-day is actually tomorrow). We went to a place we haven't been for a while and we used to go there all the time. This place usually has some pretty good deals, we know the guy personally, on a first name basis. We walked in looked around and then my brother waved me over to look at some stuff laying on the counter. And my eyes lit up!! Some of this stuff we have never seen before. Except for the Turbo Grafx Games. Keep reading down, I have posted info on each picture on the find. The Total Bill was $45.00 ON ALL OF THIS!!! (Except Time Gal was separate it was $25.00 in great condition). HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BROTHER!!!

Hey everyone! I picked up my copy of Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception Collector's Edition on Tuesday at Game Stop. I pre-ordered and paid the game off a while back and couldn't wait to get it. I think the Uncharted Series is one of the best game series out there there, (well besides Halo). I know there are some great series releases this month such as Elder Scrolls, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Halo Anniversary Edition, and last month was Battlefield 3. But this one is a great release. The Collector's Edition is pretty cool the game comes in a steel book case which is in a wardrobe case. In the wardrobe case is two drawers the top drawer holds a necklace with the ring from the first game on it. The second drawer holds the belt buckle with a horseshoe that Drake wears in the games. I for one will never wear either because it de-values the game with the items being used. The steel book case is pretty cool because it has a great artwork on it the game is inside the wardrobe hanging on the door. The final item in the wardrobe is the statue. The statue is pretty detailed, I didn't take it out of the plastic because I want to keep it brand new, it also comes with an AK-47 a basic gun in the game that Drake likes to use. The game play is pretty much the same as the rest but it is exciting and can't wait to begin and finish the game (I have to finish the second game first). Also my brother purchased the strategy guide for the game, the Collector's Edition guide to be exact. The guide is a hardcover book with the Soundtrack included for the game. Hope you all enjoyed the unveiling and here are some pictures to go with it.
