eBay sucks. Does anyone want to sell me a Playstation 2 system in perfect working order? If so, can you throw in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City? And maybe Madden 2005?

You may also want to see if anyone has a copy of the three Metal Gear Solid games. The first of these is actually a PS1 game, but the other two were made for the PS2.

...are you offering?
No?
But what the heck: sure, if anyone has any/all of the Metal Gear Solid games they want to sell to me cheap, let me know.
Look, at least 250 people stop by here every day...someone's got some good old PS2 games they aren't using any more, right?
I'm not going to buy something just cuz you say you have it...I'll have to research it. But if you say you have a good game you'll part with for a little cash, we'll talk. We can see if we can arrivae at a mutually-satisfactory agreement, eh?

Then may I recommend Gamespot. Their reviews tend to be biased toward skater games and "extreme sports" games, but several nuggets slip through.

You can probably get Metal Gear Solid for less than $10 at EB Games or something similar in the used bin. MGS 2: Sons of Liberty can probably be had for about $15.

And you can read Gamespot's review of MGS 3: Snake Eater, or you can read my own.

I am quite particular about video games; I don't buy them based solely on someone else's say-so either. But I believe all three MGS games are winners. I've kept them long after I've sold other games back or given them to friends and family.

Actually, I've heard enough good stuff about Metal Gear Solid 3 that I would have gotten it even without your recommendation. I was just trying to guilt-trip you into lending me your copy... ;)
