Ross PK Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 (edited) Today I managed to get a game for 1p, which is the cheapest I've ever paid for a game. It was Jet Ski Riders for the PS2 and had a price tag of 99p, I think the guy behind the till must've made a mistake. *EDIT* I'm talking about physical games, not ones that you download.

Scooter83 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 .69 Atari 2600 games in 2001. Got crazy climber in the day for that price. Long time ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impaler_26 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I bought Etrom - The Astral Essence (PC) new for 0.50 € at Amazon a few months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animan Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I once bought a working Genesis Model 2, two Controllers, all needed cables, and six games for three dollars. That's technically less than $0.50 for each game, or something... Not counting that, all that comes to mind is a few Atari games for $1.99 each, but I'm sure I've spent less than that for a single game at some point...

MagitekAngel Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Best deal I can recall in recent memory was a complete, very good condition Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus on PS2. Found it approx. 6 months ago at an EB Games. It was a total fluke because I had just started looking for a copy the week before. EB gave it away for $1.99 - liquidating PS2 stock, I suppose. Before that EB liquidated their Xbox Original Stock, and I grabbed roughly 60 games for 50 cents to a couple bucks apiece. Instant library of great games.

JamesD Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I think the cheapest I bought a new game for was $5. Seems to me Newegg.com was closing out some titles but I don't remember what it was. I'm not sure what the cheapest used game was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xg4bx Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 $1.75 or so for the 360 version of Dark Sector. It's a pretty solid game to boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schizophretard Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Today I managed to get a game for 1p, which is the cheapest I've ever paid for a game.

Why didn't you correct the guys mistake? Anyway, I can't give an exact amount but less than a dollar because I buy in bulk sometimes.

cimerians Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Hmmm...I got Kameo for the 360 for around 5 bucks new. Best 5 dollar game I ever paid for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulBlazer Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Not sure if this counts, but I picked up a copy of Fallout 3 for my Xbox 360 on Amazon, and after applying credits and points from my CC it came out to one cent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari Hacker Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 I found NHL 2005 for ps2 at gamestop for $0.29. It was a good deal. the second cheapest I bought was mlb 09 for ps2 (again) it was $0.49 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtariLeaf Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 I remember getting many atari carts at yard sales for 10 cents each back in the 90's. If we're talking more modern games then I've picked up gamecube games for a dollar or two recently. I'd be hard-pressed to think of that kind of deal though when it comes to current generation games purchased while that console was still actively sold in stores.

carmel_andrews Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Try 50p, Forgot what it was called though, it was a PC game i got in CEX in London (i think they might have a few stores in Mancs Ross) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Algus Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I've got some boxed 2600 games for 50 cents. Place I go to wasn't pricing 2600 stuff for awhile. Makes me wonder why they took it in trade in the first place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doomwaves Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Paid a quarter for Contra at a garage sale last summer.. But as far as buying in a store? I picked up Mad World on the Wii for something like $2.50 at gamestop.. Such a great game for so cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keatah Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Lotta games for free. Thus I paid $0.00 and you can't beat that unless you're paid to test'em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Ragan Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 A week ago, I bought Jurassic Park and Return of the Jedi (both for Super NES) for a quarter each, and got Dino Stalker for free. You can't beat a price like that! (I just wish they had extra Super NES controllers, as I'm woefully short on those.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
