A little off subject, but i recently heard someone somewhere is mass producing fake Snatchers for segaCD. They are being sold off as discs only but apparently the label quality is flawless, but it is on a completely blank disc! :shock:
I decided a while ago that $150 is the maximum I'll spend on a video game. I don't know what I'd do for a copy that wasn't complete. I'd still like a copy, but I don't think that I'd pay top dollar for it in that condition...
Shadowgate seems to be getting quite a bit of attention as of late. My favorite was a guy posting in a facebook group that he had to have the game because he loved Shadowgate so much, but he didn't want to pay gauged up prices for it and probably wasn't even going to play it as he didn't have a turbo grafx. Classy guy.
I paid 100.00 for mine few years back. I didnt think it was all that great of a game.
one thing to say about the game is that its pretty "unforgiving". meaning, there are a zillion ways to die and it will let you progress pretty far even if you miss a critical item along the way. some of the "puzzles" have multiple solutions which keep it fresh too
I did forget! But I stumbled across this thread again and got it down and now it is inches away from my fingers as I type this and not near anyone else who doesn't have the game!
just to make people jealous i am typing this sentence with the edge of the poster.
Turns out the seller got cold feet at my offer. He thought my offer was fair, but it is far less than he wanted. He said he may just pack his TurboDuo games away again.
I think he is under the impression that the games he had to trade are only going to continue to go up in value. I have to disagree with this theory, especially after the flurry of sports cards collecting in the early 90's and toy collecting in the late 90's proved that values will indeed go down. Probably not for everything, but the idea of infinite growth is kind of weird to me. It just doesn't make sense how people can think that, since history tends to prove that line of thought to be folly. Sure, my games may retain some value, but I really don't rely on the idea that what they are worth now will stay that way. Nor do I think they will continue to climb in value.
He didn't have a Duo either, so he can't play the games he had to trade either. Seems like a waste. Oh well, I guess I have to have something to aim for with game buying. Maybe one day....
The seller had a change of heart. I now own Beyond Shadowgate! Super nice guy too. It all worked out.
There is a scratch on the disk, but it ripped fine and played fine, so hopefully it doesn't become an issue somewhere in the game.

Congrats! What'd you end up shelling out for it?
