    Thumbs up Psychic Detective and Fox Hunt

    Just last week stumbled upon a near-mint and complete copy of Psychic Detective at a Kentucky Game Force. It was in the clearance bin for $5.00.
    After that, I found a complete and okay copy of Fox Hunt for $19.99 at a family-owned game shop in the same area.
    These are really rare and expensive, aren't they? (these are the PSX versions)
    I feel really lucky for finding both 8's I've been searching for.

    Now, I can put pics up sometime, but I have a really bad cold and didn't really feel like it.
    In Heaven, everything is fine.

    FOX HUNT?!

    *hides*

    I actually own that game on the PC, it's really stupid but it's also VERY AWESOME.

    I really like it too. I have not played much yet, but the whole scene with the plate-licking burp really surprised me!
    Nonsensical stuff like that is awesome.

    They're two of the hardest to find retail releases for PSX (so says the DP guide and I believe it based on my hunts), but they are only worth around $30 each complete.

    I like them a lot but I'm big on FMV games, so maybe I'm a bit biased. Both have really good acting too compared to other FMV games I've played...Rob Lowe and Timothy Bottoms in Fox Hunt and I've seen the main guy from Psychic Detective in a bunch of small movie & tv parts.

    Fox Hunt has a greater demand than Psychic Detective by far. Psychic Detective is one of the rarest PS games bar none, longbox'd or not. Unfortunately last time I was really watching 'the rares' Psychic was selling for quite cheap.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    I believe part of it is that Psychic Detective was really designed first as a 3do game and was later ported to the PSX and PC and the 3do version is pretty common new or mint. Fox Hunt was only ever released on PSX and PC and is considered to be the peak of FMV technology since it's about as close as any FMV game ever got to being a true interactive movie. It's also fairly funny in places.

    I'll vouch for those two as well. I found a copy of Psychic a while back for $8 at Game(dump)stop disc only and it was an interesting game none the less. Is Fox Hunt the rarer of the two though?
    If they made a movie out of your top five worst sins, what would it be rated?

    They are both ranked an 8 in the guide, but I do not know which is rarer. If it is any indication, the copies I own are the only ones I ever remember seeing.
    There's a possiblity I may have seen Psychic Detective before, but it may have been the 3DO version which is quite common.
    Other than that, they are both very rare.

    I wonder how many copies were produced of both.....

    Do any of you know where I could find a good walkthrough of Fox Hunt? There's supposed to be a lot of different endings, but I want to get the best one.
