 Only a few hundred were ever made. And I got one of them!
 Only a few hundred were ever made. And I got one of them!
While I was in the local Walmart tonight hunting for a cheap 18x24 picture frame, they didn't have any but I found a $30 one on sale for $12 at Michaels, to put my Dragon Age Lithograph I got from the bioware store a few months back into, I decided to rummage around in the bargain bin in the electronics section for shits and giggles just to see what they had for cheap. Now normally these bins are full of nothing but 3-4 year old sports games, but when I reached down into the bottom I pulled out a game that literally made me squeal like a little girl and bounce up and down in excitement for a couple seconds before I regained my composure. 

 
No Caption Provided
$9.83! I had always wanted to play this game years and years ago when it first came out, but I could not for the life of me ever find it in a store or online. Then here I am, blindly stumbling upon it for dirt cheap and still in an unopened box no less! I guess it was Karma trying to pay me back for when I went outside to get back into my fathers truck to discover that some asshole sideswiped the side of the truck and drove off while I was inside.
 
So anyway, that was my best discovery. What, if any, games have you discovered in a bargain bin that got you excited?

I rarely find anything from in store bargain bins as the Finnish game prices are ridiculous. Even platinum games cost around 35€ which is about 45$! But sometimes the bargain bins can surprise and I picked Killzone 2 last summer for 10€.

I got Uncharted and Killzone 2 for 15 bucks at times when those prices mattered. I also once got 3 gamecubes at an auction for 50 bucks, which was pretty awesome.

I guess it would have to be Okami (PS2) for like $9 at a GameStop.  It was priced $20 until I hit the cash register.

Ya, I got all excited when I found a store doing that, then over the next few days I slowly realized that EVERY dam store had the same deal.

Skies of Arcadia Legends, Phantasy Star Online Ep1/2, Viewtiful Joe 1/2, Baten Kaitos, Lost Kingdoms 1/2.
All 10 bucks a piece and very good games, some pretty rare too.
 
Also, I bought Mass Effect 1 for 20 euro at a promotion event for some store, then I found out its the best game ever, so I bought the classic edition, the collectors edition and the pc version too so I could sponsor Bioware with their hard deserved cash :X

I picked up these three the other day. Sure, I already had all these games but I'm not saying no to 5$ for another copy of each.

Just found the PS3 versions of Eternal Sonata and Bayonetta brand new for $20 each last night! Rather proud of that discovery. Every time I looked online they ether never had them in stock, or they were still asking $30+ for it.
