Who would throw this stuff away?? I got 22 mostly complete game cases for newer systems that someone had tossed out. PLUS there was an actual game in there, Army of Two for PS3! Complete, even! There were four other cases and a couple of manuals from new games (new as in ps3/360, nothing classic here).

Not too shabby for not really looking. Now if anyone needs a case and manual for a loose game I got em. Or a lot of them anyway.

Well, the fact that Army of Two was in there is totally understandable because the game is utter garbage. heh

Oh, is it? I wouldn't know, I don't have a PS3 :) They sure did a nice job of hyping it up! I remember the commercials for it. All the cases are nearly new, so that's okay.

Yup yup Army of Two is dookie. These next gen games are all hyped up and very few deliver like they should. But I suppose people buy up this crap since theres an Army of Two sequel. But it was free so its okay.

Well, as it turns out just a few minutes ago I snagged Street Fighter 4 for the PS3 (that I don't actually own yet because I still owe 161 bucks on it) from a pawn shop for 10 bucks because it doesn't have the case or manual. lol

Does that happen to be in your findings? :)

Doh! No, SF4 isn't in there. Sorry for that. Pawn shops... I don't really care for them. There's no telling what you'll find in the systems and the games that get traded in aren't that great of shape (at least the ones around here). I'm keeping my eyes open for empty cases now, this was a nice find! Heck yeah, Duke! People undervalue cases and manuals, there's something about having a complete copy that appeals to the collector in me (even though most of my games are loose I have a few).

The pawn shop near me is really good about the discs. And if somethin does go weird (or the disc just won't resurface) the one nearest me gives ya 30 days to take it back. Same thing with the consoles.

I've only ever once had to bring a game I got from there up to a local rental place to be resurfaced ... and that was still worth it in the end. I checked out the disc, it had a pretty bad lookin' circular scratch on it and he just gave it to me because it was Tiger Woods 2003 or somethin like that. lol
