Last Call Before The Holidays

[Gabriel]

So, I'm on the verge of blowing a wad of cash on a collectible which would amount to four games or so. This will probably mean I'm done buying disc games for the holiday season considering the other financial pressures of the holiday.

 

I feel I'm in good shape on that matter though. I've snagged the major titles I wanted to snag. Jeanne d'Arc, Warriors Orochi, and Growlanser: Heritage of War are comfortably in my possession. I have Ace Combat 6 and Front Mission on order. And I figure Fire Emblem, Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions, Eternal Sonata, and Bladestorm will be common as can be, so I won't have to worry too much about finding them later.

 

I'm more than a bit worried that Castlevania Dracula X Chronicles, Time Crisis 4, and Soul Nomad may be difficult to get in about 6 months. But I figure I can safely miss out on all three.

 

So, my question to fellow AtariAgers is whether there's something I've missed which will likely be difficult to snag come March?

Well, McDonald's does bring back the Shamrock Shake annually every March, and I would definitely plan on a buying frenzy for that.

I planned ahead last year. I've got a MISB (bag) of shamrock shake batter in my freezer....... It's going on ebay right before christmas.

Well, Grimgrimoire is still easy to find at Best Buy, so I wouldn't worry about Soul Nomad too much. If Time Crisis 4 is anything like the last Time Crisis games, it will be 1/2 off by March. I think the Dracula X Chronicles will be the hard to find item on that list. Although Konami does do reprints.

With Time Crisis, I remember how hard it was for me to track down a copy of Time Crisis 2 and Project Titan. In the end, I think Namco did new run of them or something.

Well I remember the last game for the PS2 that was packaged with the gun. I bought two of them at Circuit City for $10 each. This was about a year after it came out.

Mass Effect comes out in Novemeber.

Thats the only game I currently have on pre-order.

I consider that a must play, I doubt it'll be difficult to find though.
