I actually purchased this game a couple weeks ago and had been meaning to post it ... hold on to your seats...

I found a Panzer Dragoon Saga COMPLETE and in near minty (no scratches!) condition for just $5.99 at an discount electronics store!! Yeah, I nearly crapped in my pants! @_@ So now I have two copies! I can't believe it. And I thought paying $50 for the other one was a great deal. But I guess I have both versions now...the one with the white sleeves and the one with the black sleeves. Anyone know which one might be harder to find?

Anyways, its great to be back on DigitPress 8-)

On the upside you get more time to play the games :P
