[XBOX] Need for Speed: Most Wanted has Arrived!!

Welcome back gamers and collectors,

To yet another addition to my XBOX collection, and here I have "Need for Speed: Most Wanted".
Before we get into the information about the title, I've seen time and time again that this goes for an insane amount of money (for the XBOX market). $15, $20. It's just not worth that much at all. It's a common title for one thing, and why do people want it so badly? I picked this for $4, and I'm dead fucking serious... Hell I thought $10 was pushing it...
Personally, I believe this is where Need for Speed started to slip but, that's not what we'll talk about right now, because this is about Most Wanted.


I played this first on the Playstation 2, for those who just went out bought a game from the store there was always the Black Edition beside this. Sold for nearly twice the price, you're better off with more affordable option. Since all Black Edition did was add a useless Camaro (which you can't use in story mode nor modify), 3 pissy vinyls and a whole loop of the town. Oh and the making of DVD included wasn't anything special really.

Even though this style of need for speed was new for the time (real life actors in a game environment in the story). It added a great story, before we had Underground and Underground 2 with animated scenes and yes I had the hots for Mia, who didn't? I think EA did a great job with styling of this. This being released on the most powerful console at the time, I didn't see much more detail at all. I also own this game on Windows and well I'd suggest you get it for Windows, a lot of mods, and you can drive traffic cars including the police vehicles.


Another interesting item that comes with the standard edition of Most Wanted for XBOX is that it comes with a teaser flyer for the game "Black".



More games to come during the week! See you there!!

[XBOX] BLACK has Arrived!!

Hi gamers and collectors!

Welcome back, to yet another addition to my XBOX collection, here this time I have BLACK. That's the title, BLACK. Anyhow, this game is quite memorable for it's attention to detail back in the day and amazingly enough, it has the same amount of detail than COD... HAH! Just FYI, I HATE COD, YES HATE WITH ENVY. Anyway, BLACK does everything right and playing this through the HDAV Pack just beautiful.


I never understood why I skipped this game back in the day, I really don't... Maybe it had to with my parents hating games with weapons, even getting GTA was difficult enough, I'd just never tell my father about it XD. Really a great looking game, if you surely haven't seen or even played it I totally recommend it.


The condition, well it's pretty good just the manual is a bit bent near the end and the case doesn't snap together perfectly, although it does close, it just doesn't snap. See that's the problem with me, I'm so picky I notice these small problems and I end up worrying about it but why should I?
So I ended up paying $4 for this, and I can't compare a price for it as it doesn't even show up on eBay. What the hell?! So is this game rare? It's hard to say, this is the first copy I've seen in a LOOOOONG time, and I'm not even sure if BLACK hit the 'Classics' range at all. I'd have to do a bit more research to know if this title is rare or uncommon...

Well that's all for me, more games coming during the week. See you there!
