The XBOX prices change all the time, so check out this site for the latest pricing trends: www.pricecharting.com/console/xbox?sort=highest-price&genre-name=
MetalJesusRocks Would you consider making a video of games you happen to have gambled on buying early before the price went up? Maybe include games you bought early that got cheaper to buy as time went by :)
Personally, I think the 6th gen was the best generation. We had 4 consoles (Dreamcast, GameCube, Xbox, and PS2) that all were (and still are) worth owning. The Xbox's real selling point to me was the use of a HDD versus Memory Cards.
MJ should have mentionned that Steel Battalion has another crazy feature: the game actually deletes your savegame if you don't eject before your mech explodes. :p
Yeah the Xbox version of that game has been expensive for a while. Back when I got my PS2 copy that version was going for roughly $40. Since then the PS2 version has started to catch up to the Xbox in value so I would say $20 was a win.
I think the Futurama game was also expensive because it was released back when it was on Fox and hadn't gotten it's big fanbase yet. Also I don't know why the Teen Titans Xbox game is so expensive when the other ports are cheap. Regardless I bought them both since Xbox video resolution looks nicer than PS2.
I actually have Futurama on the PS2 which I got way back when I was a kid as it was selling at Video Ezy for only 20 dollars, still in good condition. However, I doubt it'd be worth much as it's all scratched and dirty due to incorrect care as a kid.
I just bought a lot of 46 games, 2 Xbox Systems and 5 Controllers for $90. There was 2 (!) Jurassic Park Operation Genesis in the lot... Also Jet Set Radio Future was in there as well.
It's also really buggy apparently. So many spots you can get game breaking glitches. Not sure if some discs are free of the errors or not, I heard a rumor some copies play better than others but nothing to back that up.
Torgo Gorgo -Unfortunately yes. I got to a level where you fight fishmen on a ship and it kept crashing at a certain point. I had to give up after retrying at least a dozen times
To you perhaps, to "the market", the games sell for what people are willing to pay. If it sells for 40 and you think it should be 20, it's not over priced, you just don't value it as much as the market dictates it's worth.
Only like 13 original Xbox games are BC on Xbox One, so for now it shouldn't affect anything. BUT they run at higher resolutions and such on X1/X1X, so that's sick.
YamiGekusu Yeah and scalpers bought them trying to overprice them thinking "limited" meant rare, but...well...they had another thing coming! More copies of the "limited" edition were made than the original! :P
That Bald Gamer I remember buying Doom 3 Limited Collector's Edition for og Xbox for $4.87 from Amazon a couple of years ago. Shit was quite a bit cheaper than standard Doom 3, plus Doom 3 LCE had Doom 1 and 2 included, which is more bang for my buck
That Bald Gamer I've been collecting games I've been interested in since I was a little kid. If I have a genuine interest in a game, I have a goal to get it (within reasonable prices, of course!)
Metal Wolf Chaos... Play as the American president... Voice acting all in English... and the game does not release outside of Japan.... Makes sense. Smh lol Great idea for a video and well executed, MJR!
Angry i sold mine now, but the game itself was terrible, no learning curve and horrendous graphics on what you would call cutscenes, only thing that comes to memory was a claymation looking black guy with text box dialog
@@teh_supar_hackr That ferrari test drive game is pretty expensive on 360 and PS3 (about $32 US over her in PAL-land) , and its not a ferrari thing cos the other ferrari games on PS3 are like a fiver if that
Another collector tip - Outrun 2006 had the Ferrari license. As such, the original case has a Ferrari license hologram sticker. You'd be surprised how many "complete" copies I've seen up for sale that don't have the sticker on the case.
I'm so glad to see another original Xbox video from you MJ. I have been collecting for the original Xbox for a while now and have most of these titles, but I'm always excited to see more videos on it.
Does anyone remember: Mafia The Godfather Mark Echos Getting Up Ghost Recon 1 Kingdom Underfire Heroes Vietcong Purple haze Shellshock Nam 67 Magic the Gathering Jaws unleashed
Didn't know Futurama was so sought after! Recently brought it online as I'm slowly building up my old Xbox collection and I think I got it for $30 AUD including shipping. Although, most expensive was my Conker: Live and Reloaded that was around $65 imported from the uk as the prices in Australia were a lot higher with the included shipping.
Think I may of found one of my new favourite channels, a mix of metal and gaming, two things I love! keep up the good work! I’ll be going through your older videos and looking at them too!
its not as intimidating as it appears. Most buttons are used once to start up your mech or for secondary funtions not used much. it is very fun to play despite it looking cumbersome. its overall slower paced, so you usually have time to react.
I've had almost half of these games(Stubbs, Capcom Collection Vol. 2, Futurama, The Guy Game) at one point or another and I definitely wanted Steel Battalion and kept stalking new and used copies while they were still easier to find but it just never got cheap enough for my liking. I think it released at something like $200-250.
Older consoles generally hold up pretty well as they're solid state electronics without any moving parts. Once you get into CD based consoles, they can (and probably will) eventually wear out.
hey just want u know I'm opening a retro game store in lexington, ky next Fri. been in the works for 2 years. u have been a inspiration for me and better believe your ch will be playing in my store everyday! ty, take care brother!
Damn! I found Teen Titans at goodwill early in my collecting days. Unfortunately the disc was very scratched and the case and manual were a bit water damaged. The manual was essentially glued shut. I had no idea it was worth anything so I'm pretty sure I threw it in with a console lot for fairly cheap. I assumed I would come across a better copy for relatively cheap. In my defense, it wasn't really worth anything at the time.
I am certain test drive eve of destruction was released in Canada not just the United States. I purchased a copy in 2005 out of the $20 discount bin back in the day. Game was a blast. Thanks again metal Jesus for another great video
The other thing that's great about "Test Drive Eve Of Destruction" is that it gives you an option to shut off the built in game music.... and if you have "Xbox Music Mixer" You can choose your favorite music that you saved on Media Player within the original xbox hardrive and actually listen to you favorite music while playing the games. It randomly chooses the songs but still very awesome.
A few modern replacements for the games here if you guys can't grab it: Steel Battalion: Dcs world (not mech though) Metal Wolf Chaos: METAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE Eve of Destruction: Wreckfest, DiRT Showdown The guy game: adult filter on steam!
Sweet! I love these videos because I just go to the pawn shops and pick up half these games. Found Futurama PS2 and Silent Hil 4 for $2 each last time around. I cant believe this list. Most are really easy to find i think. I know exactly where 3 of those are right now sitting on the pawn shop(s) self for over a year. I thought $5 was a lot lol. About to make a few hundrend here soon. Thanks for the info. Make more vids about rare games please!
@@UltimateGamerCC nah its Xbox not Microsoft. Plus i LOVE the OG Xbox for what it is and the games it offered. The xbox 360 was cool too but the red ring of death controversy caused a huge issue to many owners out there. Plus the xbox one...theres too many reasons why that thing is a piece of junk imo but the OG Xbox is always one of my favorites.
@@MetalJesusRocks it's like the sega megadrive doesn't seem to ever break had my sega since it got released and still works better than my Xbox one X lol .
I'm sure someone's already pointed it out, but Outrun 2006 C2C is available on Windows too. There are even modifications that restore arcade controls, so you can play it with a wheel or in a racing cabinet.
i really need to start getting into original xbox so many great games still at mostly dirt cheap prices - also a good excuse to buy a 360 or og xbox or both ..
Very enjoyable video, getting more and more tempted to get an Xbox as never ever even played one. Outrun Coast to Coast also came out on PC, but I think Windows 8 and 10 have trouble running it.
Really surprised you didn't mention that Metal Wolf Chaos was by From Software, which also gives it some extra fan appeal, and explain that they made the Kings Field, Armored Core and Dark Souls games.
Missed opportunity to not say: "And now for something completely different. It's.... Teen Titans!", to make it feel like a genuine Monty Python reference.
I remember the MTV True Life: I'm a Gamer episode. One of the gamers in that episode was playing that first game and his friends were laughing at him saying "He can't drive a stick shift but he can play this game."
From wiki entry of The Guy Game: Four months after the game's release a lawsuit was brought against Topheavy Studios, Gathering, Sony, and Microsoft.[1] A woman known as Diane in the game (who is found in Set 5, Episode 20) explained that she was not informed that footage would be used to promote the video game.[2] At the time the footage was recorded, Diane was only seventeen years old, making her underage. A temporary restraining order was granted, prohibiting the further production of copies of the game that contained the girl's image, voice, and name.
Haha, I still have the Futurama game. Will definitely have to hold on to it. I had no idea it was going up in value like that. It's certainly nothing amazing, but it does have its charm to it!
I think your price might be a little off Stubs The zombie is about a $30-$45 game well at least in New York. I never seen it for more than 45 bucks unless you're talking eBay prices. I mean heck I got my copy this year for $30. Unless something has changed and the price jumped in the past 4 to 6 months.
Modest Gamers where I live it's not available anywhere in any retro store so ebay is sadly my only option which is usually 50 to like 70 I've seen :/ wish I was in a bigger city.
chocolatewheelchair Hell no I will never go to that shitty place again. J&l are a bunch of greedy bastards. I wanted to get zombies ate my neighbors months ago and the guy tried to overprice me by almost $30. I told him that was way overpriced and I asked if he's willing to negotiate just a little bit like $5 or $10 less and he came back and said nothing is negotiable that everything is set prices. I live in Queens New York but the place I go to is located in Levittown Long Island it's called video game trading post. They have a very knowledgeable staff and a great selection of old-school retro games and consoles.
Leonard Mendoza I understand where you're coming from with that. I've had to resort to eBay sometimes when I can't find something out in the wild and that's totally fine but something like Stubbs I wouldn't pay more than $55 on eBay for. It's all about patients and patients does pay off in the long run if you try to get a good price game especially on eBay.
chocolatewheelchair Just to add to my previous comment I ended up getting zombies ate my neighbors somewhere else for $32 instead of the 60 they were trying to charge me. The place they're located in Midtown has very high price rent so I understand why they would charge eBay prices but to not want to negotiate just a couple of dollars is ridiculous they would've had a repeat customer with me and one that spends quite a bit of money as well if they would've just negotiated five dollars less.
Here I am thinking I probably never played these games, yet I owned Stubbs the zombie, and test drive eve of destruction. Two amazing games, wish I didn't loose them through the years haha
That's true, that's the version I have. However, I believe I read somewhere that the PC port lacks some effects found in the Xbox version. Or was it OutRun 2006 in general compared to OutRun 2? I'm not sure.
For anyone wondering about the legal issue in The Guy Game, it was live-action footage of a girl who ended up having lied about her age during filming. She was underage.
@Eric GreenHowitzer Favorite does not have to mean the best. The original Xbox is my favorite console also. I grew up with it and it was my choice for multiplatform games. Also, Chaos Theory, KotOR, Jade Empire, and the GTA games are all some of my most memorable gaming experiences. Thanks to the original Xbox.
I sold a spare copy for £45 without the movie disc, the game skyrocketed just after the announcement of Shenmue III but has come back down again since.
Nice educational video! I have never seen someone play Steel Battalion before since the *'controller'* for the game is so rare. I don't care if it's a bad game. Very interesting
As far as I know, the controller with the green buttons was bundled with the first "Steel Battalion" game and the one with the blue ones was sold with the second game "Steel Battalion - Line of Contact".
chocolatewheelchair I've been a long time subscriber and he used to do at least 4 videos a week thank you anyways brotha still one more vid will never do no wrong
if you are going to get Jurassic Park Operation Genesis, get it on the PC. The PC version has a ton of community mods that are still being released to this day, and they dramatically improve the quality of the game.
Quite a while back, my uncle went to trade in a bunch of his Xbox games at Gamestop. I noticed he had Eve of Destruction. I told him that what ever they were going to give him, I'd double it. The worker told us that we couldn't do that in the store, but was pretty cool about it. He sat it aside and after he finished trading everything in, we went outside. I think I ended up buying it for under $10.
I simply picked up the controller for Steel Battalion from Japan via an online auction there. It cost $70AU. So, my advice is to find the game disc itself locally, and get the controller from Japan, where you can get it for peanuts. Simple!
You forgot about Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2. That game is going for around $100 with a case, and I was so happy when I found it sitting around my house.
OutRun 2006 is essentialy OutRun2 plus a BIG old style expansion, which doubles the roads and quadruples the cars. Also, it eliminates the rare slowdown. It can be played on the Xbox 360, but it has some kind of LOD bug on the road textures. It mustsn’t be confused with OutRun Online Arcade which, while in 720p and with the Xbox Live servers still up, it doesn’t include more than half of the 2006 content. It’s very barebones. It was also delisted.
4:11 Outrun 2006: Coast 2 Coast was released on the PC as well (at least in Europe) and can be run in 3200 x 1800 px w/o any updates directly from the ingame launcher. Also, the Xbox version is working on the 360 - but it may be glitchy now and then (it works a lot better on the classic Xbox but is 360 compatible).
Outrun Coast 2 Coast also came out on PC, which is the version that I have. Thankfully it supports controllers as well so I’d actually say that that’s probably the best version (graphically, anyway)
I just hope there are rips of those rare games on the internet. So we can use modded consoles and emulators to pirate, preserve and breath life in such peices of art.
Not sure it has already been mentioned but Outrun 2006 is also expensive because it supports LAN gaming and every console needs a copy of the game so it is probably in demand for retro, LAN events etc.
Got an in box complete Steel Battalion for $75 on craigslist last month. The free trial of xbox live hadn't even been scratched off. A wonderful edition to my collection, and soon to be a standalone arcade cabinet.
Outrun 2006 on the Xbox is so collectable because none of the retail stores carried it! The only place I was able to buy a copy was at Microcenter, and even those stores are few and far between.
I love that I have a STEEL BATTALION crate basically unopened with all the packaging and plastic in perfect condition :) It is in my backlog....and I literally have never played it.
I worked at EB GAMES in Canada. This was selling for $270 at the time (12 years ago) Always stood up on the top shelf not being moved. Never sold 1 always had 1. We also had the green one.
The Metal Wolf game was done by the same company that did Dark Souls/bloodborne series they did a bunch of mech games in the early years when they used to make games on the Playstation and XBOX. Also I remember getting The Guy Game on the PS2 as a birthday present on my 17th birthday so that was my first M rated game I owned. LOL

MetalJesusRocks hey you forgot Conker's Bad Fur Day that's a rare game
Once had a chance to buy Steel Battalion for $20, you could imagine how I'm feeling now.
MJ should have mentionned that Steel Battalion has another crazy feature: the game actually deletes your savegame if you don't eject before your mech explodes. :p
Yep! That happened during me capturing the footage! The mech caught fire and I didn't push eject in time ...and my save game was deleted! LOL
@@MetalJesusRocks lols with eyerolls
middle finger that deliberate gameplay.
I found Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis at Goodwill, complete, for $2.99 last year.
Incredible find. I actually found Futurama at my local Goodwill a month or so ago.
Nice! I always love finding pricey games for cheap myself.
Yeah the Xbox version of that game has been expensive for a while. Back when I got my PS2 copy that version was going for roughly $40. Since then the PS2 version has started to catch up to the Xbox in value so I would say $20 was a win.
I went ahead and used that Jurassic Park game as trade bait to get some other items I was more interested in. Worked out well for me.
The Nostalgia Factor That's it!!! I'm putting on pants and going to the Goodwill.
I think the Futurama game was also expensive because it was released back when it was on Fox and hadn't gotten it's big fanbase yet. Also I don't know why the Teen Titans Xbox game is so expensive when the other ports are cheap. Regardless I bought them both since Xbox video resolution looks nicer than PS2.

You going to do reviews of either of these games perhaps?
I actually have Futurama on the PS2 which I got way back when I was a kid as it was selling at Video Ezy for only 20 dollars, still in good condition. However, I doubt it'd be worth much as it's all scratched and dirty due to incorrect care as a kid.
It shouldn't be because it's an old game. It should be less than $10.00.
I just bought a lot of 46 games, 2 Xbox Systems and 5 Controllers for $90.
There was 2 (!) Jurassic Park Operation Genesis in the lot...
Also Jet Set Radio Future was in there as well.
Stubbs The Zombie Rebel Without A Pulse is one of the most underrated games of all time
TheSaltedSnail Soooooo good.
Glad I still have my copy
One of my fav games of all time for the OG Xbox. The game is so unique and still feels fresh to play all these years later
Real good soundtrack too
Stubb might just be my favorite game of all time
Oh wow.... I have Teen Titans, Jurrasic Park & Capcom Classics. I didnt know these games were worth that much tbh
Your parents must have loved you...
I used to play that Teen Titans game on Gamecube a lot. Worth less than the Xbox version.
You forgot to mention Call of Cthulhu by Bethesda usually goes for $60 to $90
Cool. I own a complete copy of it.
In the UK it works out at only $30 to $40, but still too rich for me!
It's also really buggy apparently. So many spots you can get game breaking glitches. Not sure if some discs are free of the errors or not, I heard a rumor some copies play better than others but nothing to back that up.
I'm sure I heard that it was developed by like just two people, which might explain the bugs haha
Torgo Gorgo -Unfortunately yes. I got to a level where you fight fishmen on a ship and it kept crashing at a certain point. I had to give up after retrying at least a dozen times
To be honest,most retro games are way over priced!
MrDraich how? They’re relics
To you perhaps, to "the market", the games sell for what people are willing to pay. If it sells for 40 and you think it should be 20, it's not over priced, you just don't value it as much as the market dictates it's worth.
Give me a break, it's all false inflation thanks to channels like these
try again, it's cause of money grubbing dicks who wanna get rich quick selling stuff way above retail.
you're the consumer. you essentially make the price. if a seller can't sell for a high price, the price will eventually lower.
I love listening to this dude talk about video games cause he just loves games so much and you can really tell.
Only like 13 original Xbox games are BC on Xbox One, so for now it shouldn't affect anything.
BUT they run at higher resolutions and such on X1/X1X, so that's sick.
4 years After your comment....check the prices now, it's much higher !!!
Metal Wolf actually finally got a proper US release this year, and oh man it is probably one the funniest things I've ever seen.
My favorite still is how the Halo 2 Limited Edition is now worth LESS than the Halo 2 regular edition, haha! Great video though man! :)
Yeah, I see the Halo 2 LE on sale at a local chain of used game stores for like six dollars all the time

So thankful I got to play it around when it first came out. It's hard AF!

Angry i sold mine now, but the game itself was terrible, no learning curve and horrendous graphics on what you would call cutscenes, only thing that comes to memory was a claymation looking black guy with text box dialog
Eve of Destruction is one of those games I find cheap often. Most people wouldn't think it would be worth much.
Ah, Rob! Fancy seeing you here! :)
Good to know you're an MJR fan too! :D
grab one for me. i love that game
Most Test Drive games are usually dirt cheep, worth around $5 to $20 cib across the games. Test Drive 2: The Duel CIB for MS-Dos is worth $120 or so.

Steel Battalion looks cool, but it looks far too advanced for me to ever be able to play it.
its not as intimidating as it appears. Most buttons are used once to start up your mech or for secondary funtions not used much. it is very fun to play despite it looking cumbersome. its overall slower paced, so you usually have time to react.
My friend has it and he told me that one of the buttons is for the windshield wipers and one to eject from the cockpit.

How do you maintain your old consoles in working condition? Do you do anything special or just hope that they don't die on you?
John Smith Following I'm also interested
honestly a bit of luck and a well ventilated room/area for them that and if you know what you are doing opening up and cleaning the insides
Its not like they just die on you. My 2600 still works the same as it did when it came out of the box and it will out live me.

Hot damn, I might want to get in on this.
@@SolidSonicTH you wont regret it. The game is fun!
Thanks MJR! Been waiting for a video like this for a while. I love collecting for the original Xbox!
i really need to start getting into original xbox so many great games still at mostly dirt cheap prices - also a good excuse to buy a 360 or og xbox or both ..
powerwolf1097 \m/ get both, fantastic consoles, if you own an Xbox one some games are even backwards compatible.
i have an xbox one currently yes just be nice to be able to buy any given game and not worry about whether its on the compatability list
I have a 360 and so glad that I can easily play those original xbox games easily on it.
Well, some games are backwards compatible anyway. Definitely not all.
For those wondering why The Guy Game had some legal issues... One of the young ladies modeling was 17. That's all I'm gonna say about it 😂
6:18 how donald trump will invade north korea
@Arnez Willis He returns to Israel
Didn't age well eh?
Only modern president who didn't continue or start any war/conflicts.
Very enjoyable video, getting more and more tempted to get an Xbox as never ever even played one. Outrun Coast to Coast also came out on PC, but I think Windows 8 and 10 have trouble running it.
Really surprised you didn't mention that Metal Wolf Chaos was by From Software, which also gives it some extra fan appeal, and explain that they made the Kings Field, Armored Core and Dark Souls games.
Because Metal Jesus is clueless about half the shit he shows. Shelf collector at it's finest.
why are you hating on metal jesus he seems like a really down to earth dude just being himself.
Missed opportunity to not say: "And now for something completely different. It's.... Teen Titans!", to make it feel like a genuine Monty Python reference.
I remember the MTV True Life: I'm a Gamer episode. One of the gamers in that episode was playing that first game and his friends were laughing at him saying "He can't drive a stick shift but he can play this game."
Metaljesus you do rock sir!!!
From wiki entry of The Guy Game:
Four months after the game's release a lawsuit was brought against Topheavy Studios, Gathering, Sony, and Microsoft.[1] A woman known as Diane in the game (who is found in Set 5, Episode 20) explained that she was not informed that footage would be used to promote the video game.[2] At the time the footage was recorded, Diane was only seventeen years old, making her underage. A temporary restraining order was granted, prohibiting the further production of copies of the game that contained the girl's image, voice, and name.
Metaljesus is the best UA-cam channel! Always so informative
I agree
Thanks!
Haha, I still have the Futurama game. Will definitely have to hold on to it. I had no idea it was going up in value like that. It's certainly nothing amazing, but it does have its charm to it!
I think your price might be a little off Stubs The zombie is about a $30-$45 game well at least in New York. I never seen it for more than 45 bucks unless you're talking eBay prices. I mean heck I got my copy this year for $30. Unless something has changed and the price jumped in the past 4 to 6 months.
Modest Gamers where I live it's not available anywhere in any retro store so ebay is sadly my only option which is usually 50 to like 70 I've seen :/ wish I was in a bigger city.
Hey, Where in NYC do you shop? Do you know J&L Game in midtown??
chocolatewheelchair Hell no I will never go to that shitty place again. J&l are a bunch of greedy bastards. I wanted to get zombies ate my neighbors months ago and the guy tried to overprice me by almost $30. I told him that was way overpriced and I asked if he's willing to negotiate just a little bit like $5 or $10 less and he came back and said nothing is negotiable that everything is set prices. I live in Queens New York but the place I go to is located in Levittown Long Island it's called video game trading post. They have a very knowledgeable staff and a great selection of old-school retro games and consoles.
Leonard Mendoza I understand where you're coming from with that. I've had to resort to eBay sometimes when I can't find something out in the wild and that's totally fine but something like Stubbs I wouldn't pay more than $55 on eBay for. It's all about patients and patients does pay off in the long run if you try to get a good price game especially on eBay.
chocolatewheelchair Just to add to my previous comment I ended up getting zombies ate my neighbors somewhere else for $32 instead of the 60 they were trying to charge me. The place they're located in Midtown has very high price rent so I understand why they would charge eBay prices but to not want to negotiate just a couple of dollars is ridiculous they would've had a repeat customer with me and one that spends quite a bit of money as well if they would've just negotiated five dollars less.
Here I am thinking I probably never played these games, yet I owned Stubbs the zombie, and test drive eve of destruction. Two amazing games, wish I didn't loose them through the years haha
Titanfall should of had this controller!
In 2017 I was very lucky.. Found OUT RUN 2006 Coast to Coast for about $300 pesos, about $18US..
Outrun 2006 is also available on PC which is the definitive version, because you can play it in a high resolution.
That's true, that's the version I have. However, I believe I read somewhere that the PC port lacks some effects found in the Xbox version. Or was it OutRun 2006 in general compared to OutRun 2? I'm not sure.
It's missing bloom afaik, which can be re-added using reshade. Also supports mods for wheel controls, arcade menus, etc.
Wrong
For anyone wondering about the legal issue in The Guy Game, it was live-action footage of a girl who ended up having lied about her age during filming. She was underage.
My favorite console.
you need more consoles
@Eric GreenHowitzer Favorite does not have to mean the best. The original Xbox is my favorite console also. I grew up with it and it was my choice for multiplatform games. Also, Chaos Theory, KotOR, Jade Empire, and the GTA games are all some of my most memorable gaming experiences. Thanks to the original Xbox.
YogurtSalad ps2 is better
@Gejamugam Latsoomanam Read my first sentence.
@chevy. The consolator?
Great video man. Subscribed to last year around this time, and I have looked all your videos bro! Keep up the good content on gaming
SHENMUE 2 LOL HONORABLE MENTION
its only £20 or so i have it here with dvdmovie of first game
I sold a spare copy for £45 without the movie disc, the game skyrocketed just after the announcement of Shenmue III but has come back down again since.
Shenmue 2 was not exclusive like the first game, it's available for PS2 as well.
Was never on PS2
IN AMERICA SHENMUE 2 IS NOT EASY TO FIND ...AND WILL COST YOU $ ... ANY TIME YOU SEE IT IN RETRO GAME STORES IT'S BEHIND GLASS FOR A REASON....
Nice educational video! I have never seen someone play Steel Battalion before since the *'controller'* for the game is so rare. I don't care if it's a bad game. Very interesting
Isn't the guy game an illegal game to have because of the under age nudity?
George Hernandez i think so but i dont know
I know its banned in australia where i am 😂😂
It’s illegal to own in some countries but not all.
Don't ask don't tell
George Hernandez its not technically illegal to own but I know ebay listings have gotten pulled for it on a frequent basis.
As far as I know, the controller with the green buttons was bundled with the first "Steel Battalion" game and the one with the blue ones was sold with the second game "Steel Battalion - Line of Contact".
Metal Wolf is Donald Trump
Jaja - that’s true haha
It needs Trump's voiceover
You're fired!!
Gamer tip: If you own a softmoded Xbox you can play them all for free.
Please upload at least one more video a week
Luis Rodriguez did you really just say that? He posts constantly.
Quality over quantity! If you´re bored there´s a whole world out there. :P
I upload new videos every Tuesday and Friday. Any more than that...and I'd need to hire an video editor ;)
chocolatewheelchair I've been a long time subscriber and he used to do at least 4 videos a week thank you anyways brotha still one more vid will never do no wrong
You do a great job, my man. It's tough for me to squeeze in 1 a week, so I know the feeling and appreciate the hard work. Keep it up, my man! :)
This is my brothers absolute FAVORITE game. He's working on a 2-player setup right now :D
500 dollars for a mech simulator??!! Shut up and take my money!!! That simulator set up looks amazing!!
if you are going to get Jurassic Park Operation Genesis, get it on the PC. The PC version has a ton of community mods that are still being released to this day, and they dramatically improve the quality of the game.
Great video. The prices jumped on some of the Xbox games with the backwards. Ninja gaiden black went from around 10$ to 50$ ish crazy
I didn't know Stubbs the Zombie was a rare game, I found it CIB at a goodwill for a few bucks, that made my day :)
Quite a while back, my uncle went to trade in a bunch of his Xbox games at Gamestop. I noticed he had Eve of Destruction. I told him that what ever they were going to give him, I'd double it. The worker told us that we couldn't do that in the store, but was pretty cool about it. He sat it aside and after he finished trading everything in, we went outside. I think I ended up buying it for under $10.
I simply picked up the controller for Steel Battalion from Japan via an online auction there. It cost $70AU. So, my advice is to find the game disc itself locally, and get the controller from Japan, where you can get it for peanuts. Simple!
You forgot about Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2. That game is going for around $100 with a case, and I was so happy when I found it sitting around my house.
OutRun 2006 is essentialy OutRun2 plus a BIG old style expansion, which doubles the roads and quadruples the cars. Also, it eliminates the rare slowdown. It can be played on the Xbox 360, but it has some kind of LOD bug on the road textures.
It mustsn’t be confused with OutRun Online Arcade which, while in 720p and with the Xbox Live servers still up, it doesn’t include more than half of the 2006 content. It’s very barebones. It was also delisted.
4:11 Outrun 2006: Coast 2 Coast was released on the PC as well (at least in Europe) and can be run in 3200 x 1800 px w/o any updates directly from the ingame launcher. Also, the Xbox version is working on the 360 - but it may be glitchy now and then (it works a lot better on the classic Xbox but is 360 compatible).
Outrun Coast 2 Coast also came out on PC, which is the version that I have. Thankfully it supports controllers as well so I’d actually say that that’s probably the best version (graphically, anyway)
Yes it did, while OutRun 2 was exclusive to Xbox. So I would rather get OutRun 2 for Xbox and 2006 for PC.
I can't believe MetalJesus owns a videogame legally classified as child pornography...
I respect you for not plying or shoing off bad games
Steel Battalion, I didn't even know that game exist. With the controller that's freaking crazy!
I just hope there are rips of those rare games on the internet. So we can use modded consoles and emulators to pirate, preserve and breath life in such peices of art.
Criminally!.. I mean, totally!
There are some people that don't even know how to drive a stick shift, yet they can play Steel Battalion.
Not sure it has already been mentioned but Outrun 2006 is also expensive because it supports LAN gaming and every console needs a copy of the game so it is probably in demand for retro, LAN events etc.
Got an in box complete Steel Battalion for $75 on craigslist last month. The free trial of xbox live hadn't even been scratched off. A wonderful edition to my collection, and soon to be a standalone arcade cabinet.
Outrun 2006 on the Xbox is so collectable because none of the retail stores carried it! The only place I was able to buy a copy was at Microcenter, and even those stores are few and far between.
Had no idea Stubbs the Zombie had gone up so much; purchased it at a local game shop for $17.
I love that I have a STEEL BATTALION crate basically unopened with all the packaging and plastic in perfect condition :) It is in my backlog....and I literally have never played it.
doing a quick search on Ebay, we know that the prices that appear in this video do not correspond much to reality, but even so, fantastic video
I worked at EB GAMES in Canada. This was selling for $270 at the time (12 years ago) Always stood up on the top shelf not being moved. Never sold 1 always had 1. We also had the green one.
Nice! The big green is getting some love on MJR's channel again.
The Metal Wolf game was done by the same company that did Dark Souls/bloodborne series they did a bunch of mech games in the early years when they used to make games on the Playstation and XBOX. Also I remember getting The Guy Game on the PS2 as a birthday present on my 17th birthday so that was my first M rated game I owned. LOL
