The Nerd Stash: “The PS3 marked a turning point in the industry, and among the sea of popular titles came the rare games that are worth more now than ever.”
I don’t collect games for their value I collect games I enjoyed playing. Many games I own are worth a lot of money but they must be games I want to play for me to purposely collect them. Most of this list isn’t games I would enjoy. I may have some of these games because I bought my friends PS2/3 Collection years ago and I never actually looked what was in it. It was a couple hundred games though still sitting in a box and I’m sure there are some good valuable games. I should go sift through it sometime.
Was unaware that Verdict Day was rare, glad I still own my copy. Game is very good.
She forgot to mention Ni no Kuni Wrath of the White Witch Wizard's Edition with Ninostarter bonuses. This is the second or third most expensive PS3 game, and I own a sealed copy.

OMG
"While this might sound like more doom and gloom for Sony's besotted next-gen system, it should be noted that Sony make significant profit from software, rather than hardware; any refinement of the manufacturing process will also stem these large losses. Of course, this also makes a price reduction in the near future less likely."
No they don't with an attach rate @ launch of 1.5 game per unit... My god. 2 Billion dollars and no income. Not on games, not in online service. Bad business model!!!
$2 BILLION??????????????? WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW, that's insane! Talk about having a bad day!
how do i appove a story its all grayed out... this has really been pissing me off.
only contributors, moderators and administrators can approve a story...so u first have to become a contributor........
This happens to Sony every time they release a new system. However, after the 1st year is where they make up they money that was lost. Sony has been stating for the longest that the ps3 is a long term investment and it is a trend that has proven correct for the previous 2 systems. Sometimes you have to take a step back to move forward.
