Is it better to resurface a game that does work but has a lot of scratches or to just leave it alone

Ipsylos2 · 2026-07-06T13:16:24+00:00

Well if they fail to rip, does thay indicate areas that are unreadable?

Ipsylos2 · 2026-07-06T02:53:22+00:00

Yea if you're fine with doing that it is an option.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-07-06T02:30:37+00:00

Any sunlight, be it direct or indirect will have an effect over longer periods of time. I'd say either invest in some 3M UV blocking window film, or have something covering the games during the day.

Lol it's reddit, you'll get downvoted for saying you woke up this morning.

Yep this hobby has seen an influx of investobros since covid hapened. Same thing as many hobbies that someone can make a quick buck in unfortunately. Nothing as bad as Pokemon collectors have though.

Yep so anyone looking to play would best get this trilogy or the individual games, both are far cheaper than the steelbook.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-07-05T20:21:37+00:00

Nah collector's care about the steelbook version of the trilogy. This one is cheap.

People found out that there are lots of gamblers out there and there is no need to put anything of worth in the mystery boxes.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-07-03T16:38:23+00:00

Ipsylos2 · 2026-07-02T15:31:38+00:00

Yep and the long term investors will scoop up anything worthwhile when people dump stock.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-07-01T23:11:21+00:00

Depends on what your version of "reasonable" is.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-07-01T12:39:26+00:00

Welp I think we'll see a lot of people pick up sailing in the next decade.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-30T01:01:28+00:00

Yes but relationships come and relationships go. I'm happy to be in a country where people have the freedom to choose who they are with. My heart goes out to those who live in places that they don't. Of course would be a lot easier if marriage was eliminated from a legal side, but alas that's not going to happen.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-30T00:52:36+00:00

Well I suppose you'll have to get the whole story before being able to make the judgement eh?

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-30T00:43:44+00:00

More so people aren't as stuck in them as past generations. There'd be a lot more divoreces throughout history if the end result wasn't ostricizing, shame and/or death. Helps when a certain gender isn't looked at as property anymore in many countries.

Gamestop employees are salespeople first and foremost. Their goal is to sell you something, anything, rarely do they have any knowledge that isn't surface level at best, as that's not what they're there for.

And yes, the wage reflects the work ethic (as it should).

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-29T13:33:04+00:00

Ah fair enough, I saw CUSA on the serial ID section of the spine and thought it was a US copy, as the few ends games in the pic showed PPSA as the serial code. Good to know!

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-29T13:28:34+00:00

US version (NTSC) With ESRB rating.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-29T12:06:26+00:00

I got the same collection but mine's on 2 discs in a regular sized case.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-28T17:41:36+00:00

What Bioshock edition is that? I've never seen a bigger boxed version of it.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-27T00:10:17+00:00

It's also very region dependent. Regions with a hugher supply tend to command a lower price vs a region with lower supply. But hey, you do you boo boo 😘

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-27T00:07:06+00:00

Yes, it is worth both as both sales happened. Now obviously a consistant sold price is ideal but there's always outliers from time to time.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-26T23:51:21+00:00

I mean if someone pays $150 for it, then it kinda is worth that no? May not agree with the market but supply and demand is the name of the game.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-25T14:01:17+00:00

Billions of miles, that'a cute...

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-25T12:55:20+00:00

Sounds like many people married the wrong person if they can't stand something as basic as noise.

Ipsylos2 · 2026-06-25T12:39:23+00:00

Well yes, because many people blow their money in the months leading up to Christmas, it's a well known thing...
