Was up town yesterday and decided that, before i met up with my friend, i'd pop into my local another world store and have a looksee around to see if they had an import i hadn't recieved yet. As usual they didn't so i had my little browse through the PSX section for nostalgic purposes and came across gold.

I discovered Front Mission 3, the only strategic RPG that had managed to escape my grasp and a game i had been searching for for a good few years now.

and the best part, 2 copies of Suikoden 2 in very good shape for £6.99 each, which i grabbed before the other guy who was browsing next to me could see them. Needless to say they'll be getting slapped up on Ebay soon to be sold for a good 50 quid each profit at least.


Whoever the morons were who returned those games i wish i could shake them by the hand, thank them for their stupidity and then laugh in their face.


:-D

More to do with the rarity of it than anything else but it is a very good game as well.

Front Mission 4 (june release)
Phantom Brave (august)
Star Ocean 3 (august)
Suikoden 3 (out now)
Xenosaga (out now)
Dragon Warrior 8 i think we're up to now (god knows with this one, not out in japan yet i think)


> and if i bought a US version is it cheaper than UK?

Depends where you're buying it from, the game itself will be cheaper due to the exchange rate but you'll probably get hammered on the shipping. Like i said it's best to ask Darwock or someone like that about this area of importing because i get all my stuff free from my contacts.

well atleast i know that there is a way of buying them over here. what's it called. it too requires research. i've seen a store with preowned us and jap games but another one wouldn't hurt :)
