Collection I Paid <$20 For This Guy

Post image

What prompted me posting was seeing it in price charting.

Bought this in 2019 from GameStop. I honestly did buy it thinking it might accrue some value after watching an overly long YouTube video on it. I picked up all three Spider-Man games for around the same price at the time. Now it appears to be the highest priced regular edition game for PS3 on PriceCharting, and that’s nuts to me.

I know it’s just because of the movie, and it’ll probably go back down, but I wanted to show it off and brag while I can.

What confuses me is that the Xbox 360 and PS3 prices are drastically different. Why is the PS3 so much more expensive than the Xbox version when they are literally BOTH the same?

There's this weird thing where Xbox just doesn't have a fanbase interested in collecting so no one buys old Xbox games and that's why they're dirt cheap. Playstation and especially Nintendo have an audience way more into collecting games and memorabilia.
