sales of video games have dropped since Christmas!!! astonishing.

I have Fire Emblem Fates LE, the European one. Not sure if it's as valuable as the US version, but it certainly was in high demand.

Chevalier100d ago

Don't think the European one would be as valuable since it's not region free. I got mine box and all and all those Yokai Watch games

Nyxus100d ago

I also have some of the Yokai Watch games, but also the PAL versions which don't seem to be that valuable.

Chocoburger100d ago

Its not often I actually have games on the 'most expensive list' but I do own Rhythm Thief and Layton vs. Ace Attorney. I believe both of them are sealed as well.

Chevalier100d ago

Nice! Hopefully they re-release the Layton games on the Switch. Surprised they haven't already

Star Wars: The Old Republic Still Receiving Updates 11 Years Into Release

A new update for Star Wars: The Old Republic is coming out on PC and the patch notes provide us with an in-depth look at all the new changes.

I loved this game and have played since launch but don't let this article fool you, this game is a step above life support. While they are still technically updating the game, the updates are few and far between and there is a significant lack of quality control, so many little bugs that have been present for years.

TheColbertinator400d ago

The updates felt flimsy to me also. Stopped playing in 2021.

Andrew336401d ago

This game got a huge update last year didn't it with more content?

PapaBop400d ago

They promoted it as an expansion yet offered like 3-4 hours of content. The game is amazing and easily one of the best Star Wars games ever made but content drops are so few and far between.
