Actually, it's probally one of the games I won on the day 11 contest. Atari 2600 Crack'ed recently sold on Ebay for $82. Is that acurate or just Ebay price bloating? I never imagined the prizes would be like that. DP is the best.

I have Chavez II for the SNES. I didn't pay much for it, $15, but DP says it's an R8. I seem to think I may have another R8 somewhere in my collection, but I don't know off the top of my head.

[ktyey]

[DJ Daishi]

ZipDrive proto and the mp3 VMU proto for the Dreamcast

Eliminate Down seems a whole lot rarer than many of the games listed by others in this thread.

I'll see your Elimintate Down, and raise you a japanese Virtual Bart, for the win

The SINGLE rarest game I own might be

...off the top of my head I can think of

Mr. Do (complete, mint) - SNES
Intelligent Qube (complete, near mint) - PS1
Poy Poy (complte, near mint) - PS1

[Breakman]

Hmm don't really recall all of them but the one I would say is up there right now since I'm looking at it right now would have to be Suikoden II.

Very interesting read and game. Care to share the story behind how you acquired the game?

It's not a very interesting story, but it is amusing.

The game was simply listed on eBay as "The Getaway" with a minimum bid of £1.00. Out of curiosity I clicked it, expecting to see yet another Platinum version which seem to be commonplace these days. I was bemused with what I saw. At the time, used copies of The Getaway were lucky if they fetched between £3-£5 (Sealed new copies between £8-£10), so I thought i'd try eMailling the seller anyways and see if they'd accept an offer of £15. They did, I paid pronto, and it arrived the next day!

Turns out the seller was a mother of a guy who had gone away to university or something, and she was asked to sell some of his games on his behalf. Obviously she hadn't a clue what she had, and listed it simply as "The Getaway" assuming it was as common as any other version released. As the Platinum version was common as sea water, £15 must have sounded a bargain price!

Until then, I had been searching for an original sealed black label version (Before the change of the coding), but I am more than happy to own this version as a compromise!
