Mate, soon as finished the video realised I had not flipped the image and was not prepared to spend another hour plus reworking the video 🤣 I think it has charm 🤭
@@gentlemanofgames I feel ya! I've contemplated picking this one up also but currently can't justify the spend. Definitely something for the future tho.
I find it so cool how these games have been sat somewhere for so many years. Makes you wonder how much is still out there yet to be discovered. Stuff of dreams finding a palet of old sealed games.
Me too mate, I was watching the development of the situation fascinating, and for it to be RoR and not just say MGS2 or something, maybe Kuon boxes are sitting somewhere 🤞
Wow. That is awesome! In Canada, an NTSC copy of Rule of Rose would cost over $1000 CAD, around 561 pounds! I’d have to get lucky to find a discounted copy of it one day.
@@bimbibenny it's super rare over here too mate, £400ish if you could find a copy before the 🇮🇹 find, I would have never found d it without that happening either 🤘
you can tell its authentic from the hideous italian shiny sticker on the back! nice find mate, really curious to see how it will affect the price of the game!
Cheers mate, I personally think it will drop a little short term but then go back up to normal (maybe smidge less) when collectors have there copies, thanks for watching 🤘
Congrats dude. I could never do this myself...spend £300 on a medicore game that I'd never want to play lol. When I buy new games I want to be able to open it and play it and I'd be to worried about loss in value if it cost me £300+! 😂
Cheers, no I get it and I'm usually in that camp, not spent and money on games in years though so a little splurge felt acceptable. The game ok I didnt mention I have a fake copy I have played so another reason not to open the real one for me 🤘 thanks for watching
It's not that bad TBF it has not actually co.e away, seal is still fully intact, just the flap is pointing up. I would be more suspicious it was fake if it was down after all this time TBH, 100% know what you mean though 🤣
Mine was shipped untracked and most likely stolen, my country is next to italy, there is no way after 3 weeks it has not arrived. :( this already happened with another untracked order for my silent hill 4 last month, im convinced someone in my local postal is stealing them.
@@gentlemanofgames trough the postal service not the same seller, im 100% convinced they were stolen. someone within there is getting grabby :( I dont want a refund i want the game, so i told them to send me another this time with security.
@@Bird-Birdy-Loveoh that's so bad as not like you cannot avoid the postal service like you could the shop, hope they get through to you mate and the person gets caught out 🤞
Hey I finally but the bullet n did my first podcast, I was so nervous lol but once I got started I loved it, its definitely something I want to do now, got my 2nd podcast booked for a couple of weeks, u mite of heard of him Dan the games man
Waay well done mate, taking the plunge is the hardest/worst part, great to hear you loved it I'll give it a listen, yeah seen a few of his videos that should be fun mate best of luck with it mate, if you enjoy it you cannot go wrong 🤘
@@gentlemanofgames Rare variant. Nah seriously great to see you so happy with your purchase, makes it all worthwhile when you decide to treat yourself and it’s exactly what you wanted. Love the channel btw
@@8bitH oh I can mate, in clipchamp, rendered/saved the video and then deleted the file on CC. Noticed when uploading I hadn't flipped it and didnt want to do it again from scratch 😅 shouldn't have deleted the file from CC before I knew it was perfect 😅
I jumped on this early.. and got it early enough to warrant opening it tbh.. as more sold; they increased the price.. I unsealed mine to play.. I like the search function. part and the bosses are fun to fight and thematic.. but very silent hill 2 clunky combat lol
I was too suspicious early on like I said I need others to show me the goods first 🤣 I should have said that I have a fake copy that I can play and have that's why keeping sealed made more sense for me too, it's a good game would have been more popular if not all the launch issues it had 🤘
It's gone down in price since I ordered Sept 21st (was €299) and still waiting for mine to arrive in the UK. eBay says shipped, tracking says it hasn't been received by UPS and seller is ignoring me 😂 Did you have to pay import fees?
If the same seller as myself and GoG.. I didn't get customs, but it took longer than expected (about 3 working days extra) to arrive.. mine was about that price £250.. about 2 months ago) and they don't communicate.. since I asked to change address to billing.. but didn't.. hope this helps :)
I'm not a PS2 collector I just collect Xbox one and series X games. I have loads of sealed games but that's only because I haven't played them yet. I don't really understand why people keep games sealed. If I buy games it is because I want to play them. I do have a few rare versions of games sealed but I'm still going to open them up. I mean over 300 squid for a game to not play seems a bit strange to me. I'm not knocking ya mate you do you but for me it's a nope 😂
Oh mate I'm with you TBH I never spend anything on games usually 🤭 I rushed this video to get out so could open the box but should have mentioned I have a fake copy of the game I can and have played, it's a decent game, but that's why keeping it sealed was more suitable this time 😁 thanks for watching 👍
🤣🤣 very true I should have mentioned in the video I have a fake copy so I have and can play it without opening it and dont feel guilty now I actually own it 🤭
Nice addition, is it me or is the lettering and whatever on the game backwards? Crazy, I'm surprised you didn't use the meme or GIF of Fry from Futurama with his "Take my money" quote 😂🤣. All in all another great video 👍🏽👍🏽🕹️🎮🍻

I’ve had mine for 2 weeks. Only cost £260 from Italy. Thankfully it’s absolutely mint. If I got it graded would probably get a 10++
Fantastic mate, good on you for taking the risk early... I just had to wait until others took the risk 😅 my anxiety wouldn't let me go for it before 🤣
£225 now, kinda worried it will go down even further to be honest.
I noticed, and I expected it, I recon when all settled down a sealed will be about £280-£300 going forward 🤔
That lose bit is the pull tab
It is mate, it's not loose, still fully sealed just a bit pointy 🤣🤘

Nice one mate! Gotta treat yourself once in awhile👍🏻
You do indeed... and when the wife demands it you do it 🤣🤣🤘
Thank you for the videos
Thank you for watching 🙏
Jesus over 300quid🤯 i could never😂 if it was a game i might actually be interested in id be jealous😂
I have never before and will probably never again buy a game anywhere around that price 😳🤣
@gentlemanofgames you say that now👀😂
That tiny bit of the plastic wrap coming away would ruin me and I'd have to return that after spending so much on it 😢

curious to know, did you get hot with additional customs charges and vat? tempted myself but cannot stomach the additional costs
@@jpen8788with the additional VAT cost it is still like 150 pounds less than what cex is charging for mint right now.
