Post Holiday Pick Ups & a gift from the USA!
Amazing episode Dan - I can't wait for the finale! Can't believe how generous people have been helping you on this project. Looking forward to seeing if you going to do the PlayStation 3 PAL Platinum/Greatest Hits range? My friend Neale had Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory on Platinum here in the UK when we were at Uni together. He sold it in a CEX - I wonder if it's the Australian version he had (I can't remember seeing the Australian rating board being on the box).
@@thekingofoldskool2 maybe it was who knows, maybe it did get a U.K. release and is just incredibly rare? Yeah I’ve been blown away by the support of the retro gaming community and all will become clear for the future in the finale!
@@DanTheGamesMan Dan..you tease! As I said before, I can't wait for your finale. It might have released in the UK on Platinum, I have no way in checking as he sold the game to CEX during Xmas 2008. It felt like yesterday,
@ yeah it’s amazing how times flies isn’t it and don’t forget next Saturday I’ll be unveiling ANOTHER new challenge for 2025 lol
@@DanTheGamesMan
@@DanTheGamesMan
There is a Tom clansy's chaos theory platinum one with an uk flag and english on the backcover. The sealed astro zoo isn't a real sealed one it seems, probably a reseal. No platinum disc inside. It does have a platinum disc Simpsons one is a good find, very difficult to find with uk flag Wrc rally 3 isn't a spannish exclusive, because i have a dutch one.
That Chaos Theory must be very hard to find, which is strange for a game from a franchise which is normally fairly common. Yeah sadly probably a reseal which is shame. The Simpsons game has been so hard to find complete the U.K. version complete so very thankful for that one. I think there’s multiple versions of WRC, just happy to finally find one!
PS3 in 2025 would be a much easier experience for you I promise 😂
We’ll see, I’ve never been one to do anything easy lol
Nice pickups and loving the community spirit to help you find these beautiful platinum jewels. Glad I was able to help you edge a bit closer this time too and maybe more to come in the finale? #spoilers. Still some Australian bangers for you to grab, so super amazing you have a viewer helping with that hunt too. What a legend! That is probably the hardest region to source these games for you now. The hunt continues!
Thanks it’s been amazing how much the community has rallied around this challenge and it’s blown my mind! Don’t worry there’s still a lot of surprises to come in the finale, and like I say, you never know what will happen in the next few weeks…
I’ll always be gutted that I missed out on Michigan: Report from Hell. I remember when CEX was selling it for something like £15 and then MJR done a video on it and the next day it jumped to £100
Wow I can’t believe with a game like that it was ever that cheap! It’s crazy how much RUclips can influence prices lol
@@DanTheGamesManwell with that game it really did. Also MVG video with alien on the PS one jumped the price up too.
@ was that the one which you could use to play copied games?
@ that’s the one. The new one is the piglet game on ps 2. It’s currently 3 at CEX but selling for a lot more online.
@ yeah I did see about that one also crazy prices lol
Glad to help out with the simpsons game fella. my lads were so happy about the shout out 😁.
@@sinatra2007 thank you and say hello to them again from me, thanks to you all for watching!
Cant wait to see the last ep, looking forward to a full compressive list as i have started collecting myself.
@@djvoo19 thank you and indeed should have a fairly comprehensive list by the end of the next episode, good luck collecting! Have you started yet?
@@DanTheGamesMan Yes mate on 104 atm 😬
@ nice doing well so far!
Still no Bratz though 🙈🤣
@@lucyaiston523 I’m afraid not lol it was one I was really hoping we could find from Australia but alas no luck this time
@DanTheGamesMan one day one day. I just think its a really random thing to have a game of 🤣
@ I think there’s like 3 Bratz games on the PS2 lol
@@DanTheGamesMan 2 platinum ones, australian exclusive
@ fairly rare and surprisingly hard to find also
So many platinum games 👀 love it 👍🏻
Thanks I love them too haha
Really great Dan glad you managed to get all those things you needed 😊 Austrailia have loads we don't have for the Pal region 👍
@@Stevirobbo yeah it’s amazing how many games didn’t get worldwide releases, specially being the highest selling console of all time! Thanks for watching!
The game at 18:00 minute of WRC 3 is also the Portugal version. There are 3 box variations of WRC 3 game!
@@harskimcdb2572 thanks for the info, wow can’t believe there’s 3 versions and it took me this long to find one lol
The box Variations are: One Cover is with a Subaru Impreza (Portugal, Spain, Italy, Germany and Netherlands), One Cover is with a Citroen Xsara (French Version) and other cover is with a Ford Focus (Belgium and UK Versions).
Thanks for the shout out Dan! Glad to be able to help on the Platinum Project! Excited for the challenge for 2025! Cheers!
Thank you again! Not long to wait now for what awaits us in 2025!
So what will be the next challenge? Trying to collect every psygnosis ps1 game? Or Disney game? I myself hunting for every ps1 Namco game.
@@anakinchromosomewalker7031 I’ll be unveiling one new challenge on December 14th and then another challenge at the end of this series so stay tuned!
@DanTheGamesMan would also be nice to see how the platinum shelves are looking, would make every episode interesting seeing the evolution of the shelves and seeing them filled.
@ they’re a bit of a mess lol at the moment, the plan is to get them all organised and looking nice for the finale!
It's an incredible game. When i was children, played that for very much hours😀🎮
Such a good franchise! Would love it to make a proper comeback
Hot drop, get some
Straight to work 🫡
Because everyone did that in HD1... and it's still glorious. I tried once to put thermite on the wings and ended up killing the whole squad waiting inside for me... But fireworks were worth it.
Haha the fireworks are always worth it and full disclosure it’s normally me that does this haha
Keep it
@@WS_Farming it’s tempting isn’t it lol
Road Warriors the best tag team ever
Such a good team!
@ yes they are mate
@@tonmtbcomic9066 can’t wait to expand this new collection
@ you shouldn’t keep it to wwe mate WCW, TNA, AEW and RHO all have good ones to
@@tonmtbcomic9066 I will be keeping it too WWE and doing different eras
There is another Cex in Beeston near notts which you missed for some reason! Also if the Cex says it has something in stock for that particular shop online but you can’t find it, be sure to ask as they sometimes haven’t put them out into the shop yet.
Yeah sadly we ran out of time this time and couldn’t make it to all of them. But I’ll be back! Yes indeed always asking asking if you can’t find something as they can’t always display everything, especially when it comes to retro
It's rough seeing how Anglia Square and Magdalen Street have changed over the years. There used to be so many good second hand stores, pawn shops, and charity shops were down that way, then places like Swallow Games and Regeneraton Gaming. Looking beyond just that sector One Step Beyond has been gone for years, Gamestation and Electronics Boutique are history, GAME is confined to a corner in the top of Frasers, that place near the Grovesnor Fish Bar is long gone, now it's just St Benedicts left for Last Level Games and maybe a find in the two pawn shops up there, or CEX. There was also a place near the airport once upon a time in the Dixon's Shopping Centre. Got a Saturn pad from there in the late 90s. Still, a Fine City, thanks for the video and good luck with the new collections!
@@FuseboxEllen yeah it really is a shame how much Norwich had fallen but all we can do is support what’s left and continue to support as many places as possible while they’re still here
You missed out on that sats t-shirt, you could pull it off 😁
@@djvoo19 haha I’m sure it’ll still be there lol
You could have got that teeshirt and patched it onto the back of a denim jacket
The sex and the city one lol
@DanTheGamesMan haha I mean yeah thay aswell 🤣 the rock one 🤣
@ that’s an awesome idea but I just couldn’t harm it in that way!
@@DanTheGamesMan but you'd end up with such a cool jacket
@ I have a very cool jacket already and the more you say about it the more tempting it is…
Second hand land remember going there as a kid ! Do you remember a shop called " one step beyond " ? That was a awesome shop too ! Keep up the great work bro appricate and look forward to seeing your videos 🎉
@@robertcollins7034 yes I do remember one step beyond! I remember going in there and buying Mortal Kombat for my Master System, that store was amazing and still sorely missed!
@DanTheGamesMan No way 100% where I got my mortal kombat for the master system from too ! They did great trade in too on second hand games 🎮 too :) I remember buying comadore64 games there too ! Happy days !
I'm going to gamestop next Friday to order Mass Effect Trilogy xbox 360 video game

How are you this morning
@@LatashaMoore-y7r it’s evening here and having an awesome day so far!
Great content my friend. Appreciated
Glad you enjoyed it! Some great finds this time!
Dan, do you have a compressive list of the PS2 games available
I have what I believe it’s the complete platinum list to the best of my knowledge, if you send me a message on my socials I’ll send you a copy.
@@DanTheGamesMan Great, messaged you on insta. Cheers buddy
@ awesome just replied mate!
A plethora of great upcoming content, looking forward to it. Makes the Jan 4th episode special- it's my Birthday!
Glad you’re excited for it! Hopefully that’s a nice little birthday gift for you lol
@@DanTheGamesMan It most certainly is! I'll be expecting a copy of SNES boxed- Hagane (Mint) through the post as a Birthday gift 🤣
@@SupplementSteve214 haha I’ll see if I can find one lol might be a tall order ;)
Fast forward a year and I can safely say that the play store is still as stacked as ever but kingstreet traders is now more expensive than CeX 😂
It’s been a year since my last visit already? Must mean it’s time to go again soon lol, can’t wait to see what I can find this time…
SSX ON TOUR SSX TRICKY
They need to bring this franchise back!
Second post, but the Dark Souls collection is actually cheaper NEW on Amazon atm for either XBONE or PS4.
@@GeminiNight I was just looking at this on Amazon and I’m very close to buying the PS4 box set…
"I was looking for a copy of Dark Star One, but unfortunately I just couldn't find it this time, which was a shame" 6:12 it was literally four games from Death Smiles which you pulled out.
@@GeminiNight I think a few people noticed this lol, I need to start wearing my glasses when hunting lol
"Of course, everyone should leave that behind."😂😂
Haha I’ve been reliably informed it’s actually a pretty good game…
Looking forward to Mr.PS2MANYGAMEZ live performance. He could do it for charity! Can wait till Saturday's next episode of the PLAYSTATION 2 PLATINUM CHALLENGE as well! I don't know why I typed that in capitals. Seriously though I look forward to it - putting my fingers crossed to see if 2025 challenge will be the PS3 Platnum/Greatest Hits PAL range...
@@thekingofoldskool2 you’ll have to wait and see what TWO challenges I have set up for 2025 but there’s not long to wait…. Charity stream sounds like a great idea!
@@DanTheGamesMan You tease...I look forward to hearing what these challenges are dude. Happy 40th in advance as well dude....looking forward to the Xmas Party.
@ thank you! December is gonna be a crazy month, big announcements and party’s all month!
Great video dude as always. I would of definitely picked up that PS3 slim. As I personally swear by them as being damn near bulletproof. I've tested no joke probably over 200 I swear and I think 2 have failed to work. Another weird quirk about my CEX, is that mine doesn't care if the controller has a serial number, if it comes with the console. I've done that load of times since. Also they don't care about the sticks either. You should ask your local if they do the same next time your in.
Thanks for the info I’ll have to ask next time I go in, I think mine is quite picky which isn’t the worst thing when it comes to buying from them as they also have quality stock. I guess I just wasn’t feeling very lucky this day lol
Love the content but curse you for getting me into the PS2 Platinum collecting hahaha I'm on a slippery slope... cant wait for the next ep 👌
Haha and thank you, hope your getting ok with the hunt and let me know if you have any questions of the platinum collection!
Great video Dan, I just couldn't drag myself there for the last one, but I really should do the first one at Arminghall when it restarts as my 8 bit pile to sell has massively grown since i last saw you. I must try not to buy too much between now and then! 😂
@@robdean5634 awesome and honestly I don’t blame you missing this last one. But excited what games you’ve added since we last met but please keep buying as you always have the best stuff lol
@14:25 - You're bang on about how good the demo disc were back in the day. As a kid I remember sinking hours in to the first demo of the original GTA that came with the Official UK Playstation Magazine issue 28 in January 1998 (featuring an amazing cover if you ever google it). I saved up for ages to buy the game but as I was still only 13 at the time I had to enlisted the help of my nan who picked it up for me from the WHSmiths in Long Eaton, no more than 50 meters away from where that CEX is now.
@@mattnottm8363 yeah demos where my first experience for so many games and for some games like Bust A Move until now my only experience. I remember the day my friend got GTA, as a teenager having this game was crazy and we played it all weekend when we got it!
Looking forward to what’s coming up mate 😀
