Games that Aren't Stocked

[Just_A_Glitch]

I can find Tekken 6 pretty much anywhere. Hell, my Walmart still carries it. Sorry OP.

My friend has to go to about 5 different stores to find Catherine its launch week.

Patapon 3.

NOWHERE sells the hard copy, only the PSN code.

I remember looking from hell and back for Armored Core 4, because I loved Armored Core 3 so much and finally got myself a next-gen console.

Eventually I found it when I was sifting through the used games sections of EB Games. It was the only game I'd ever bought used, and I only bought it because my mom bought me Modern Warfare 2 for Christmas and I wanted to take it back, so I got AC4 and a copy of inFamous.

Ended up despising the game anyway. *shrug* oh well.

Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance II. The only copy I've found, besides on Amazon, was at Gamestop for $35.

 

[krazykidd]

I still can't find a xenosaga episode 3

I also can't find suikoden 2 and 5

Also all of the tales games ( completly missed that boat )

And lastly the .hack series . Saw it once at a game store didn't buy it because i was poor , when back when i had the cash and it's no longer there.

Star Wars Battlefront 2 for my Xbox. Found it for PC, but I already have it for PC. DAMN GAMESTOP!!!

Not really the point--I've got it on Amazon--but thanks anyway. I was just curious about what games people have a hard time finding. Getting some colorful results so far.

May as well add: I have a ***** of a time finding anything PSP related without looking online.

Oblvion (then again it is a few years old) I ended up porting it from the US
also Portal 2 ON RELEASE DAY I went the previous day to Free Record shop (its a DVD/CD/games store) I ended up buying the game at a toys store

 

[KapnKerfuffle]

Only so much shelf space for 3 major consoles and PC games.

 

[T7nowhere]

EB games stopped stocking PC games (PC games other than WOW and the Sims) so i went to Steam, now if I want to play I game I don't have I just buy it on steam and play within an hour or so. I moved to Steam cause I was looking for a PC game called Grand Ages Rome, none of the stores I went to had any clue what I was talking about. So their loss and Valves gain.

I also have a PS3 but I've never had a problem finding a game I wanted to buy, but I mostly buy New games on PS3.

 

[Denariax]

Battletoads. Gamestop NEVER carries it.

All jokes aside... Bloody Roar Primal Fury. Which I'm still looking for, for an affordable price, to this day. Or BR4.

 

[lowkey_jotunn]

Mass Effect one.

Was in a Best Buy, talking to a friend about the upcoming #3, and he mentioned that he'd never played either of the first two. We were gonna pick up #1 on a whim, and they didn't have it. Had #2, but not the first one.


So he went home and DL'ed it from Steam

 

[zf6hellion]

Shin Megami Tensei series (Except for the portable ones).
Demon's Souls (Or however its spelled again).
The Tales series.
The first two Hitman games.
Armoured Core series.
A copy of Timesplitters Future Perfect to replace my now broken one.

Despite living in the biggest city in Scotland. I can't find crap here. Might have something to do with the fickle relationship between the UK and Japanese games. Or I'm just unlucky as all Hell.

 

[NerfedFalcon]

The only place I could find with a copy of Radiant Historia was Amazon.

 

[The Breadcrab]

Earlier this year I found it impossible to find a copy, used or new, of Red Faction: Guerilla. I searched Gamestop, Futureshop (Canadian), Zellers (also Canadian), Walmart, and maybe another store and just couldn't find a copy. I eventually got a hold of a new one at Blockbuster. Too bad they're kicking the bucket, they often had good selection of new and used games.

 

[zombieeater6000]

Had a horrible time tracking down any gamecube games where i live
also trying to find timesplitters 2 and 3 seems impossible

 

[Shoggoth2588]

The moment the Wii came out it was practically impossible to find any Gamecube games anymore.

This only replace Wii with Xbox360 and Gamecube with Xbox. I can't remember what exactly I was looking for though so I'll just assume it was The Suffering or, The Punisher or, Morrowind. Possibly all three. Thankfully, at this point, I live close to a Play-N-Trade and failing that there's always Amazon.
