gambare5493d ago

I'm a little pissed of because I bought it, but I'm happy for the PSN users because they are enjoying right now the benefits of being PSN users with this kind of rewards.

WhittO5493d ago

im guessing they picked the game that had the least sales they wanted to give to Sprint to sell for free, prob why they didnt use flower or some other game. Cant believe they would still give it away for free though!!
Thought there would be some king of catch lol.

Crazyglues5493d ago

Did I forget to say how much I love sprint... LoL

So much for Xbox Live gold being "sooo generous" and offering their users 1vs.100 for free after years of paying $50.

JoySticksFTW5493d ago

"crap!!!!!!

I know I shouldn't laugh, but you went off! :D

I'd feel the same way too, man. Here's a Bubble

WhittO5493d ago

Ok i thought this was amazing, until i realised this game has no online ? it got boring fast playing against the cpu and since i rarely have 4 people round to play...

o well, cant complain at all lol, it was free! atleast we get free trophies!!

If this game had online it would be so much better, since the controls & graphics etc are great.

Christopher5493d ago

Free game plus a better priced Bionic Commando. Spyro PS1 Classic isn't a bad price either, might get that one as well.

Not too interested in this week's Rock Band DLC.

Insomnia_845493d ago

If I had Rock Band I would buy the Disturbed songs.

shawnsl655492d ago

THANK YOU SPRINT for the FREE GAME :D

Aquanauts Holiday at $500. Nice

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.

Profchaos4h ago

I tend to agree for the most part rarity is linked to price
It's unusual that a rare game was popular with a few notable exceptions. Games released at the tail end of a consoles lifecycle which became popular years or decades later like little Samson on the NES or earthbound on SNES.
Or games that were banned after release in certain regions

Looking at this list there's nothing I'd be trying to collect either most of these games were fairly unpopular and bashed on their release leading to the scarcity seen now.
Especially NBA elite which I remember actually watching the news about how it got cancelled but had already shipped to retail it was so bad .

I still have Afrika. Who knew it’d be worth something?

Thought I was the only one who remembered Trinity lol very underrated

Yui_Suzumiya2d ago

WET and Quantum Theory were both phenomenal

P_Bomb2d ago

I remember Stranglehold! One of the first DLC packs of its time. A bit expensive, but cheap by today’s standards.

Chocoburger2d ago

Another PS3 hidden gems list, and yet again Time Crisis 4 and Time Crisis Razin' Storm get snubbed. Such fun games, that shouldn't be forgotten. If only we got a home port of Time Crisis 5: Mastermind Edition.

-Foxtrot2d ago

WET is something I wish they'd remake, they had so many great ideas but not all of them were executed properly

It had a lot of potential

Also Wanted Weapons of Fate is another game that had some new fun gameplay ideas.
