Games you had in your hand in the past but regret not buying years later.

[Retro Doomer]

So the Idea for this thread got to me recently when I looked up prices for Bully Ps2 Version

where I remembered as a stupid kid holding the Game in my hand it was
at the time where the pretty much removed their Ps2 stock so the game would have been not that expensive back then,but stupid as I was thought what a stupid cover and promptly returned it into the box.

I ended up buying not one of the Ps2 games that day not knowing that those would get expensive as heck.
To my defense I never read any Gaming Magazines as a kid I did not even know they existed until I was a full grown fuck tard of a Adult.
So I bought my Games for the majority of my life based on wow cover looky nice instead of any actual reviews..you can guess how it turned out sometimes.

Anyhow any Similar experience where you could travel back in time and kick your own stupid assees for not buying it ?
So what are you biggest regret not purchases.

SNATCHER.

It was on sale for £15 on the Mega CD, but hey I was a kid back then. I only cared about Sonic CD.

I saw Final fantasy 10 for the PS2 for the equivalent of 5 dollars from the mid 2010's, I really regret not buying it when I had the chance

Sorry to hear that made you really missed out on a Cult Classic.
I found a pretty good deal but its PAL so I am not sure how much use it has to you

Nothing much... The ones I remember are Michigan: Report From Hell (PS2) and Tales of Vesperia for the Xbox 360. Maybe Spiderman: Shattered Dimensions...

I realize those weren't great remasters, but they marked the only time I owned a physical copy of Warrior Within (one of my All-Time Top 5). My PS3 wasn't modded and I didn't have the money to buy games every month, so I was constantly trading titles from my collection and eventually Prince of Persia Trilogy was on the chopping block.

Even though I legally own the digital version, nothing replaces the feeling of holding disc in hands (unfortunately, the grey-market price is far too astronomical to indulge that feeling).

I am not sure if you have a Ps2 (Hopefully modded since its PAL) but that one may be a good deal

The only PS2 I ever owned (now dead) came without a disc drive and only ran OPL.

Fallout: New Vegas.

It was... right there.

I barely had enough money, but I did have it. Stupid, fucking bitch.

My entire NES, SNES, Gameboy collection, consoles included (phat PS2 as well).
Some early PC games (mid 90s) I no longer remember.

Panzer Dragoon Saga. Normally, my brother and I horde everything so we have almost all of our games we purchased aside from our old NES collection (which he sold against my wishes way back when) and some early PS1 titles. But Saga...

We bought it when it was new but we were new to the import scene and had a jp saturn and not a european one so the game didn't run properly on our saturn and we weren't going to buy a separate one just to play the game so we returned it and got something else... Then came the ebay darling phase and we regretted it ever since...
Until a friend of mine wanted to unload his Euro saturn and games many years later and lo & behold!! Panzer dragoon Saga was in that list. It lacks the cardboard box that held the 2 game cases but it was otherwise complete. We're never letting that one go ever again!!

The same thing almost happened with Vagrant Story. my brother bought it and really disliked it for whatever reason. I didn't really get it but felt that there was something special about it so I paid him the price of the game and kept the disk in our collection before he could return it.
