Title: It is worth it?
Post by: alkevin on January 14, 2018, 02:25:48 PM

Hi, I bought a ps3 so I´m buying games at second hand,  I´ve been looking for capcom vs marvel 3 and spyro dawn of the dragon, found an online store ordered the 2. They sent only one, because  the spyro one didn´t pass the quality control. But I´ve found out they have another copy but more expensive. The 1st was 16,5 and the second 19,5. For 3  more is the game is worth it? It isn´t that much.  What are your opinions?

When its second hand goods that are no longer on the market, "is it worth it" can be a little subjective. Especially for games.

I think what you have to ask is "will you get enough enjoyment and play time out of it to pay that money".

Does the game come up for sale a lot? Are there lots of different places you could purchase or are the sales of it limited?

I love Spyro! Its always my go to game to go back to.

Agreed with hathorcat 100%

Only thing about that particular Spyro game is its a 3 part game series, that title is the 3rd in the series. If you haven't played the other 2 yet, the story will be quite confusing. So if you really don't care about story then go for it! I've played this one and its really fun imo.

I never seen the game on stores or someone selling it. On Ebay it´s 40 or more, without shipping.

Then $19.50 is a great deal! I personally would have been aggravated that they failed to mention that they're not sending the game out though. They definitely should have notified you BEFORE shipment.

That is insane. For other systems like the Wii its waaay cheaper. I honestly would buy it then.
