Speaking of Alan Wake it looks like brand-new copies are being sold for around $100 on Ebay. Wild stuff, as a year and a half ago I bought my physical copy for just €15.
I know right? Got my copy for 20€, it's still sealed and conveniently, I still have a few weeks of PS+ Essential left and redeemed Alan Wake back then. Playing through the last 2 chapters today - so no need to break the seal.Speaking of Alan Wake it looks like brand-new copies are being sold for around $100 on Ebay.

Yeah, they probably did just one print for the retail release and that was it. Usually you see this from small pubs/devs, but I guess the sales just weren't there to justify a reprint.

I've also noticed the same thing with Scorn Deluxe, which I got for €40 back in October of last year when it released on PS5. It's now out of print and listings on ebay for sealed copies sit around $70 - $80. :/
Yes, it's true, I also like to buy used and don't need everything sealed, unless it's a title that I don't want to play but own anyway. Scorn would be an example. And yes, you're right, even if it's silly, but a game like that would of course remain sealed to preserve the value. As long as there are people who will pay that much money for the sealed copies, it's a nice investment, even if I don't consider it speculative. I enjoy having the games on the shelf. But if things get tough at some point, for whatever reason, a games collection could be worth some months of rent.
The physical future looks bleak.
They should have added an S to the name for full on trolling. TES VI!
That's what I hate most about current day.. you really have to stay on top and put more money out up front than ever to keep on top of everything you want because otherwise the price shoots up even if it's just somewhat over retail. All generations before you could go at a leisurely pace and while sometimes certain games would have a low print run and become hard to find, most would be plentiful and at better prices later on relatively speaking. Amazingly aggravating.
CDPR is finally doing a proper Cyberpunk 2077 physical release for PC!
Great! My next purchase: Metro VR 100%. (But man, the price!)game.co.uk lists Metro Awakening for £59.99 / 70.11€ / $76.11
I'm pleased to be able to buy the game physically, I was afraid I'd have to do without it like I did with CotM.
This will be the game for which I will dust off and unpack the PSVR2 again.
Did you play it? How did you like it?
Yep, I usually grab a few games here and there constantly as long as it’s titles I want to play, performance on Switch isn’t utter
and it’s not outrageously priced.
Great pick-ups there! Also, did they ship your Talos Principle II Deluxe early? Hoping to receive my copy as well this Friday.
My April so far ... 135h of casual gameplay according to HLTB
I don't even know when to play all these games.
Stellar Blade next!
Thanks! Got it from the store in my original post, gameware.at. The website says "not yet in stock - pre-order now", so yes, they apparently shipped very early.
Nice! Just checked them (gameware) and looks like they got some Asian imports as well at a good price (low markup)
.
Great idea.
I would love to find which PSVR2 games are going to have disc releases. I buy almost all of them and I will never buy digital ever again.
I will be editing this post with updated list of PSVR2 game physical releases.
Here is my humble PSVR2 game collection if you are interested:
I plan to buy in March:
Vertigo 2
Hubris
EDIT:
Added to the collection (steal sealed, since I play something else now, but soon I will play these games)
Maybe you are interested but I started playing Hubris first and I will keep Vertigo for later date, and I can say already it is great looking VR game, maybe the best I have ever played and I just finished Red Matter 2.
The retail edition of The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe for NSW and PS5 is now up for pre-order on Amazon. Probably coming soon to other retailers as well if it hasn't already happened.
If I had to guess, it would probably be late this year or maybe early next year. For reference, the Switch physical was announced like 5 months after the game's digital launch on the Nintendo eShop.
Love it! It probably was one of my most anticipated physical game releases this year, and at a very generous price (they could have asked €50 for it and I would have still bought it, no questions asked).
I agree. And now, side by side, I'm a bit jealous of your PEGI version, the 4 times bigger German USK print just looks like shit - regardless of the game.
Yeah, the USK logo is way too damn big, lol! I have several physical copies of games I love with the USK rating on them, and it bothers me more than I can admit.
Damn, Spec Ops for 5€ is a nice find. I really liked it when I caught up with it earlier this year.Found a PS5 copy of Alan Wake Remastered brand new at a local store for 18€, I've read somewhere they are getting pricey?
I don't even have a PS5, lol.
Also found a PS3 copy of Spec Ops: The Line for 5€, I see them going for 25 - 30 online since the game got removed from the online stores.
I'll keep an eye for them, you used to find lots of them for cheap in every second hand stores in my area.
Also found this thing for 5€, never heard of it. I just assume that when you have cute/hot anime girls on the cover it'll automatically go up in value later.
Just saw these new PS5 listings for RE2, RE3, and RE7 at my local specialist retailer. I did wonder why Capcom never did a physical re-release of these games, considering how popular they still are and the fact that they already received digital PS5 versions quite a while ago.
I'm also slightly annoyed as I bought the PS4 physical version of RE3 just last month.
Unlikely, I checked the product page for RE7 and it says it has just PSVR support. Now I wonder if they'd at least put all the DLC on the disc.
