There’s a lot to talk about in games right now. The war between Call of Duty and Battlefield rages on, Grand Theft Auto V singlehandedly saved the UK games market, and then there’s something about a new generation of consoles invading the homes of gamers. Exciting times indeed, but lost amidst all this are two games that might have slipped under your radar this year, two games that are quite unlike anything you have ever played.
Could you get rich by investing in PS3 games? Almost definitely not. Can you make a few bucks by flipping PS3 games over the years? Yeah, sure! It wouldn’t even be that difficult. But let’s face it: Once these games are in your collection, you’re probably keeping them forever.
After a game's multiple generations old, and can't be had new at a reasonable price, that's when I see nothing wrong with emulation.
What's the point of paying someone scalper prices when the dev/publisher isn't even benefiting from it?
I paid $30 for SH Downpour on PS3 now it's around $70-$85 Canadian Lolipop Chainsaw I paid $15 and it has really gone up in price. I wonder if Transformers War and Fall of Cybertron will go up in price two of the best Transformers games every made.
Ever since Sony announced that they would shut down PS3 store these prices have skyrocketed and even though Sony backtracked now most gamers realize that it's a matter of time before the PlayStation 3 store is shut down. If you want these games get them while you can even if digital because once that story shut down the physical prices will just go crazy high we saw that already
And many of these games did not sell like crazy amounts so they are limited number of copies available for sale at any given time
It's been a roller coaster on the PS3 front. Prices went absolutely insane a few weeks ago, but with the PS3/Vita stores staying open for now, prices have plummeted back to earth. This article breaks it down, complete with buying suggestions and current prices.
Recently I sold Lightning Returns for $25, Tales of Symphonia for $50, Bleach for $40, Night Trap for $90 and The Orange Box for $45. I'm making a business of finding PS3 games for cheap and selling them for slightly less than what other people are selling them for on ebay. I ordered both the standard version of Doom Collection for Switch and collector's edition for Doom Collection for PS4 for the purpose of resale in the future.
The Ghetto Gamer has been predicting and tracking PS3 prices over the past year. The last few months have seen a massive spike in the pricing of PS3 games, and it may be too late to pick up some of the more rare and hard-to-find ones at a reasonable price. Some of these are nuts.
Again, seen this coming from the start, glad I already bought everything I wanted over the years 👌
Stil remember selling ps3 titles to buy a PS4. but i keept the ones i liked more. Did the same with the titles of the PS4 to get a PS5.
Getting Puppeteer for Christmas hopefully. Amazing art direction, the demo weren't half bad either.
Bad publishing from Sony, they are bad at building hype and releasing at a good time, do they think it is a simple matter of demoing the game at events and marking the releas date on the calender?
Sony should gauge the level of anticipation in the gaming community and if the response is not hot enogh they should take action to build up the anticipation, if gamers attention is focused elsewhere like it is now then they should delay the release a bit and pick a better time to restart the publicity campaign
Ubisoft delayed Watch Dogs becaus it felt the game can be more popular, gamers wer just fresh from playing GTA5 and the hype for WD colled down, now after some time has passed Watch Dogs is again the most wanted game proving Ubisoft right.
Puppeteer should have been a Vita exclusive while Tearaway is a good game its mistake was releasing on the same day as Super Mario 3D world and Zelda Link Between Worlds.
I'm currently playing both :\ they are great games...specially Tearaway.
I'm not sure how much they are selling, but I know that many of those must be from PSN, therefore hard to track.
Marketing can be blamed a little....but a market that relies on sequels and shooters can be blamed a lot.
You can get tearaway right now at gamestop for $20. I going to pick it up today. That game looks sick.
