Hey guys, as some of you know i am an avid PAL PS1, MD, MCD and as of know a Game Gear collector.
What i also want to know is what PAL PS2 games are becoming 'rare'?
I DO NOT want to know this so i can start hoarding games to sell (as much as i need the money) i just wanna know what DECENT and INTERESTING games are gonna be like the Suikoden's of tomorrow.
I suspect Suikoden IV and ICO are in this list but what else is worth getting that people know or think will become really difficult to find.
Mind though, only PAL games.

I was in Gamestation today chatting with my mate Rebecca who works there and mentioned how i was after ICO and what happens?
She tells me how she ain't seen a copy in AGES and as we talk someone TRADES a copy in!!! What are the chances?
Anyway i didn't buy it as its £37.99 or summit second hand in Gamestation and i don't have that kinda cash.

Also keep your eyes open for Konami's Firefighter F.D. 18. Seems pretty rare in my area of the world.
Mad Maestro, Rez, Gitaroo, Gallop Racer, G1 Jockey ;)

One store in town here has 3 Gitaroo Man's for €9.99, I doubt it's very rare.
What about Polaroid Pete?

Marvel vs Capcom 2. I found only a used copy at EBGames, no new copies, and its quite pricey. I got mine off of ebay for $28 US more than a year ago.

Sure Wink
Here is a little info:
Possibly the rarest PAL game, if any copies made it out, is Polaroid Pete (English PAL version of Gekisha Boy 2). JVC Music Europe, its publisher, disappeared around the time this game was due to be released - but apparently a few copies were given away in a magazine contest, and a few more may have gained limited distribution in parts of Europe.
Here is a pic of this game

And a german games-magazine says that it has 64% "gamefun"......
This means it's not so good....
