GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

Is my latest purchase.It's a PS3 game.It's hard to find unless you use eBay.I wrote a blog a while ago saying driving games are my least favorite genre.But I haven't played many racing games this generation(only Initial D,SEGA Rally Revo,MOTOGP 06),and Initial D and SRR are drifting/sliding racing games so I want to play a racing game with more traditional controls.

The reviews of F1CE have been mostly positive.Gamespot gave the game a score of 7.2,but most of GS's reviewers are American,so I doubt they'll fully appreciate the game,but player reviews have said the game is great and realistic and often I see player reviewers give the game between 8 and 9 out of 10.

There's many games that I like that are hard to find in stores.Ebay makes finding most games possible,but what I mean by ''rare'' is the game is hard to find in a traditional store.

I'm living in Australia now,and I've seen Valkyria Chronicles in only 2 Australian stores.In Thailand I saw Valkyria Chronicles in many stores but not many common Thai people can afford a PS3.I bought my copy of Valkyria Chronicles in Thailand(yay for region-free).

I found a copy of Marvel vs Capcom 1 and X-Men vs Street Fighter before eBay was available.

I found Tekken Tag Tournament,SNK vs Capcom Mark of the Millenium,Marvel vs Capcom 2 and War Tech without using eBay.I think War Tech is a cool game,it's a Japanese,arcade s t y l e game that you use robots to battle eachother in 2D,shoot em up s t y l e.

Some eBay sellers charge a very expensive price if they know the game is rare,so sometimes it's better to search the stores first.

In Australia it's hard to find some JRPGs,even when the PS2 was in the prime of it's lifespan,I saw Breath of Fire Dragon Quarter and Star Ocean TTEOT in only 2 stores.At that time,on Ebay I could only find preowned copies of Star Ocean TTEOT but I wanted a new copy of that game and I was luckily enough to find one at an Electronics Boutique store.

Now I have F1CE to add to that list

I agree with searching stores first and Ebay is always my last choice since you can't see the condition in the games or anything and it's just so much harder than going to a store and bringing it home

Nice I wish I could buy some good stuff on e-bay but I'm picky when it comes to games I've got to have the original casing and intrustion booklet if possible. I wanna get Persona 2 Eternal Punishment off of there.
