#056: Paying The Price

Another candle of the YouTube community goes out as the players of the world light their own to mourn him. Join Tyler- who was fresh out of a wedding and tried sweet talking his way to his local chief of police to get a ride-along- and Nik, who finally bought new shoes for the first time in years. At what point will you fork over the cash for a collectible game? Masuda has more thoughts on the rabid fans who demand full access to pokemon in Sword & Shield! A new Pokemon mobile game is on the horizon. Sweet deals are happening for the Steam Summer Sale! One thing in common in all of these topics: who is paying the price in the end? This is Casual Master Quest.

“Recently I went and sought out an old PS2 game- Ace Combat: The Balkan War- and had to pay 70 dollars for it just to ensure it came with Full case and manual. I’ve also done this with another game for PS1 called The Misadventures of Tron Bonne which ran me 160. This got me wondering, are there any classic games that you both would be willing to shell out a premium for just to have in your collection and why? Also if you have already done this, what games are they?”
