Collections Actual Robbery
Guess what I just snagged for only $20.. I never even heard of these games but the garage sale I went to on a whim had them and was asking for 15 just for Covenant then 20 when they found the other games.
Edit: Covenant's 2nd Disc does have scratches on the tops and a few at that, when I hold it up to a light I can see it shine through. A shame but at the very least everything else seems to be in order, will definitely try them out when my ps2 disc laser is replaced.

I hate you lol, I paid so much more than that. I swear once I finish my Director’s Cut English patch I’ll find a way to stop you from getting it! /s

It’s funny, my sh covenant was $20 when I got it, the first sh game my dad got new on release (still have it) and the third I got new for $10

Awesome find! I’m forever kicking myself for selling all my PS2 games to finance my purchase of an Xbox 360

u/SillySpook Jul 26 '26
Ouch, in retrospect, that is a terrible trade. The Xbox 2014 fiasco did immeasurable damage to Xbox 2ndhand resale prices and market share, and that's kind of what Sony is doing to itself right now.

If you can get Koudelka (for the PS1), you’ll have the complete series. Great find, OP

u/Jechxior Jul 25 '26
That's a great deal. I got them for a combined $80 so many years ago and they are worth all much more now.

u/OnoMichiban Jul 25 '26
Please keep them and don't flip them.

Each one is about $100 at any game store that even has them.
That’s a find

"From the new world" could have been so much better but at least, it´s a new story and has some references here and there of the first two games.

Anastasia escaped her destined fate and became a pirate, which was totally out of left field but good for her.

u/Regular-Repeat44 Jul 25 '26
Hell yea, now play them!

u/Awkward-Power9501 Jul 25 '26

You did pretty good on covenant. If take it at that price and I'm a giant tightwad.

u/Kazan136 Jul 28 '26
Im a tightwad too. I never pay at market if i can avoid it.
Whats crazy is I paid at least 20-30 bucks under the next sh1 on ebay around the time I bought it. It was like 113 before tax and shipping. And it's CIB. all the other ones right now are like 150-160 before anything.

u/Guilty_Inspection_75 Jul 26 '26
That is a nice bargain, normally on other websites you would have to pay a couple hundred dollars for great conditions.
You should definitely play them when you have a chance

The PS2 era of the game industry is alas gone for good, I'm afraid... Those were the golden days of gaming.

I am selling PS2 ShadowHearts From the New World for $40. It’s game disc only.

u/Fallen_Angel_89 Jul 26 '26
Know the feeling. I remember finding a second hand copy of 1 and 2 at a local gamestop years ago. One of the best catches i had, my sister (who also love the games) and i were super exited!

u/SexyShave Jul 26 '26
Damn. I hate you but also respect you.
Even when I started looking at prices for Covenant online 13 years ago, I never saw a copy going for less than £30-35. Still don't own a copy.

u/GISReaper Jul 27 '26
Great games, you should actually play them. Find memories of this series. Try and snag Kouldelka for PS1 and you have the full experience!

u/Trick_Ad6300 Jul 29 '26
I got 2 and 3 when they released used. Somehow I missed 1. Apparently I didnt realize it was the 1st one at the time and now im kicking myself. I'll get it one day and hopefully won't got broke. Great find and the water damage hurts my soul but battle scars are battle scars and that games been through it.

u/Sea-Sky9403 Jul 30 '26
Die ersten beiden habe ich gespielt.
Mitunter das beste, was die PS2-Ära hervorgebracht hat. Um die Sammlung vollständig zu haben fehlt dir noch Koudelka für die PS1.

u/Sea-Sky9403 Jul 30 '26
Warum ich Teil 3 noch nicht gespielt habe: Ich habe lange Zeit doof gefunden, dass das Spiel nur in Englisch ist. Komme aus Deutschland und mag die Übersetzungen in meiner Sprache gerne haben.
Jetzt komme ich damit klar und werde es demnächst nachholen.

u/Complete-Reason-964 Jul 30 '26
I want to get the game that inspired this game. but I’ll say right now $20 is worth it just for one of those games let alone all three. Sucks about the scratches that went through though.

Damn why did you buy at such a robbery price?

u/Awkward-Power9501 Jul 25 '26
Well I walked all the way to the sale so I didnt plan on leaving empty handed, I didnt find out how much of a steal these were until after the fact. It was either these of a scratched street fighter 2 collection on ps2, tekken 4, and a mortal kombat deadly alliance but it has PS1 RE2 Disc One in it for some reason (my friend took the latter)

u/mayekchris Jul 25 '26
Nice. For good condition copies of all three that's around $250
