Recent Game Pickups 31 - Game Trading Sites Compared 

That edition of Outcast is pretty freaking hard to come by, definitely the one I'm most envious of! Very cool pickups dude.

Very cool, man. I just discovered your channel about a month ago and I've been following closely ever since. Keep on finding gold, buddy!

I heard of 99Gamers from you MJR a while ago and I've been adicted since! Added a lot of games to my collection with that website and they have a great community! Great pick up video as always and awesome Powerslave vinyl! Keep up the good work!

you look better with that goatee. nice video! first pick up video i watched from you. i thought it would be just you showing the game and moving on to the next one, but you actually talk about them unlike some people so its actually interesting.

I think its about time you make these 2 hours long and show everything, seriously would love it :)

great videos lately man keep up the good work

MetalJesus, Always Love your work on your Channel,, Very Informative. Here I thought I was the only odd one that was into the campaign mode for the Call of Duty Series, I did the same exact thing, I went into A Call of duty Frenzy and had to get all of them just to play the great campaign modes, it's amazing on the amount of work that the devs put into those games. I'm not much of a online multiplayer guy also. Keep up the great work, Please keep bringin these pick up videos.. thanks again!!

Loving that beard! Also, really awesome pickups. Looking forward to the Ultima series review.

OMG just rocking that shirt! na na na na na na na na BATKNIFE!

I dig all of your episodes. You are kind, passionate about games and knowledgeable. Keep making kick ass videos and I/we will be watching. Peace and God Bless.

Always dig when you bring out the vinyl on these videos. I still need to make it over to Easy Street since they closed the Queen Anne locale.

Loving the goatee! You are officially more Jesus...and metal.

I flipping love Outcast! One of my absolute favourites of all time. If you can't get the boxed version to work, there's a re-release on Steam that works flawlessly. Absolutely amazing musical score, too.

No better way to start the weekend than with a new MJR video!

Sweet pickups MJR.Talk about memories I remember experiencing those text adventures growing up I believe it was on the Commordore Vic-20 a game called Adventureland by Scott Adams.There was some other titles like Pirate's Cove and The Count.Also, remember playing the Infocom games like the Zork games,Hitchhiker's to the Galaxy.Witness & Leather Goddesses of Phobos.There was alot of other ones that I didn't get to play.And than later on they added graphics to the text adventures.Thanks for sharing.

Absolutely love all the Vinyl you scored! Awesome...Sweet games too!

Amazing pickups, just added some to the game room myself. Take care!

Oh man I love that version of Hollywood Hi-Jinx. Loving the beard too!

Great presentation! You have some spectacular stuff. :)

Great video MJR, I really dig you mentioning Airblade. Never heard of it until now. I used to love Trick Style on the Dreamcast, It was like hoverboard/racing. . There was a hub-world zone where you could do tricks and stuff and i just stayed there. Always loved THPS (#2 Mostly) too so im gonna have to pickup Airblade.

I love those big manuals with the whole story in them. Those are the real collectables in my opinion and going to be useable 100 years from now if kept in good condition.

great vid dude! nice find on the Alcatraz LP too... FYI: Yngwie Malmsteem was on the first album and left after that to do the Rising Force LP...

holy balls! that wizardry set it amazing. Great find MJR!

People like to hate on Call of Duty because it's popular. Hating on shit that's popular is the hipster thing to do now it seems.

Awesome pickups as always!

Thanks for the alternatives to Amazon and Ebay. Definitely have to check out these two

Man,I'd really like to see more of these games you picked up through this channel.Too bad you don't do that kinda stuff.

Awesome video and great finds! And loving the Barnacules Nerdgasm shirt. BATKNIFE!

Always great catching up with ya Metal Jesus! Don't forget to swing through Iowa on your tour to pick out some games from my collection! And visit the Worlds Largest Truckstop! I-80 Dude! Take Care! SEE YUH!

Love the videos man. That Elder Scrolls box is sweet, as well as Quake 2. Powerslave, easily my favorite Maiden album. The production on that for 1984 is insane.

Great pickups. I used to play Xybots at the arcade and it had those twistable joystics for the turns and was fun to play. That was nice of him to give you a deal on the boxed PC games as well. I have Omikron on the Dreamcast and since I haven't played the PC version, I don't know if there are any major differences. When finding an item you've been looking for, the distance really sucks. I found one I've been looking for a long time for a great price of $9 but since the person selling it was in another country, the shipment was going to cost around $50. That sure was upsetting.

Yes!!! I've been telling people about Airblade for years. It's like the hover boards from back to the future II

Powerslave is probably my 2nd favorite album of all time behind rust in peace. Awesome vid ;)

Love these videos!

Great video this one . very helpful

that Outcast game looks sooo interesting! I never heard of it before. The graphics look really cool!!

The concept for Wizardry sounds awesome.

Nice vid! I've never really been a PC gamer due to PC gaming being expensive- but I've played a Dreamfall game for xbox. Now I know about the original

Love Point and Click Adventures, so the Longest Journey is on my hit list! Thanks Metal Jesus :)

Love the videos. Keep it up

Those disks, lol, fond memories!!! Nice vid MJR!!! Cool ending, lol!!!

Nice loot my man!

Very jealous of Elder Scrolls Arena! Also, thanks for reminding me of Longest Journey - I remember playing it, just couldn't recall the name, part of a series if I remember correctly

Diggin the Barnacules shirt.

I LOVED the Nomad Soul. Any game featuring David Bowie is a must play.

Would you mind doing a set up video for your computer (or should I say computers) in which you play all the pc games that you buy? I think i would be an awesome video to watch, keep up the great videos!

OMG. Memories of Ultima. I was getting into that many years ago before I drifted from PC gaming. I also remember Omnikron. So cool to see someone with that game. I had it briefly on home console for the Dreamcast I believe. Never got a chance to beat it or even get far. I had no Idea David Bowie was in it at the time.

The CDi, while much maligned (in many cases, quite fairly) is still a lot of fun and there are definitely some great hidden gems on the system.

Powerslave is my favorite Maiden album. I must have a copy of that vinyl!

MetalJesusRocks AWESOME score on that Maiden album! UP THE IRONS! I so love your channel, dude. Games and METAL!

I remember playing Airblade on a demo disk on my ps2 back in the day, I have to go get myself a copy now.

I... I need that Judas Priest vinyl. I have a great need and want for it. That thing's just GORGEOUS!

Just started my game collection, I started with NES and Sega Megadrive (as it's known here in the uk). It was your videos and The Game Chasers who made me want to do it. So thanks for the inspiration and keep up the awesome videos.

OUTCAST! I grew up on that game. It's been updated and re-released as Outcast: Second Contact, such a must play for anyone who loves RPGs!

That blooper at the end 😭

Tetris CDi, best music and lovely animated backgrounds! Escape from CyberCity is also very good but hard. It uses scenes from Galaxy Express 999, and is also called Freedom Fighter, released originally as a rare laserdisc game.

Man I see alot of this PC stuff out in the wild at garage sales for pennies. I wasent aware of the value. Ill have to pick this stuff up for PC collectors sense its not really my thing but they would make great gifts for people who do collect.

I recently got myself a silver EA Sports version of the Logitech Cordless Action Controller for the PS2, which I first learned about on this very channel. I have two of them now - awesome controllers that every PS2 fan should have.

I used to have the first Wizardry game for the C-64 back in the day. If I remember correctly, it was a vector graphic based 3D adventure closely resembling the AD n D gameplay. My buddy and I would literally spend hours playing it and never even came close to finishing it LOL

I just started getting into Call of Duty towards the end of last year. I'm really not a fan of on online multiplayer, but local multiplayer is great. I was surprised at how much detail is in Black Ops 2 and Ghosts is really great so far (I can't believe it's the black sheep of Call of Duty).I thought about buying all of the games as well but decided not to, MW3 is 5 dollars at gamestop and only reason I was going to buy it was because of the survival mode but right before I went I played the alien version on Ghosts and had a blast with it. I actually fell in love with the masks that I wound up buying one on ebay.

Check out Chips challenge on the lynx. My dad used to let me play his lynx on long car journeys when I was a child. Very fond memory's of that and also California games :D

Hey you're wearing a Barnacules shirt! Nice!

NICE PC finds, dude.

I've been on *leaptrade* for the longest time. I was not aware of *99gamers*. I will definitely take a look at it. Thank you.

I remember playing Xybots in the arcade, i may need this now haha.

Link between worlds is my favorite 3ds game, def pick it up.

Always enjoy the big box PC titles!

Have not watched metal Jesus in a few months I come back bam go tee lol nice

Hey metaljesus! So for the ultima pickup what was the console with those games? Thanks and keep up the good work

Seeing Outcast brings back great memories. gameplay looks so old haha

Hey Metal Jesus! Please make that star trek episode some day. How awesome would it be if they remaster 25th anniversary or judgment rites? Thanks for all your time and energy over the years.

Quake II was my introduction into P.C gaming back when I was a kid in the 90s. I used to own it for the 360 as well as it came with Quake IV. Today I'm still looking to re-purchase Quake II for the 360 but can't find the disc by itself.

I admire your respect for the single player campaign for call of duty, I've only played the black ops II for wii, but I sadly only ever joked that it must be bad if folks only play the multiplayer, but considering everyone sells the previous copy to keep playing multiplayer, the prices for the previous cod game is pretty cheap and worth the few bucks for a decent FPS.

Your channel rocks man.

The Longest Journey was fantastic. Bought it on steam a few months back:)

great pickups

Wow that's a lot of games In this review. .. I love the lynx I have a lot of games for this system , I have one lynx boxed never used and one for use....some games are very rare and hard to find....like the custom made in house games..

The Lynx that takes me back, The Jaguar was meant to be the Porche of it's day but I think it was just too expensive and there weren't many games for it. Those Ultima 5 1/4 inch disks takes me back to the Dark Ages of PC computing where I came from and Commodore 64 computing also.

Thanks I've been trying to remember what the name of that Star Trek fps was.

Oh my god that goatee is so....metal! Also a little bit Jesus too.

that 20 minutes flew by. id like to see the analytics for this video

Oh man gratz on getting the Wizardry games. They are amazing and hard as hell!!. Talk about permadeath hehe.

What happened to the road trip?? Love the channel!

FYI Vai replaced Yngwie ....I would love that Alcatrazz LP ...great video MJR !

I have a question for you Jesus. Does the upscaler solve antialiasing and graphic PS2 issues occuring on LCD TV or it looks the same like when using component cable plugged directly to the TV? Is using the older CRT TV the only option to have that nice and smooth picture? Thank you :)

Priest's 5 Souls songs were available in the deluxe edition of last summer's Redeemer of Souls album. Which, by the way, is a terrific album. They are still on the Souls tour, over seas at the moment. I think they are swinging back to the states for more dates this year. Saw them in October and Rob is sounding better than he has in about 10 years or more. I say catch them if you can!

Great getting a Lynx, there were some quite decent titles for it. Very nice to get the console, case and all of those games. Slowly collecting the titles for it. Nice affordable system to collect for. Nice getting the Ultima Trilogy box set. You just can't beat the stuff you got with RPGs back in the day. I have the 1st three Ultima games for the Apple II (don't have the boxes though). Covers are interesting for the CDi games.

I really want to get into Lynx collecting - it actually has more than a few pretty good games on it.

There's a game called Exhumed that was named PowerSlave for NA. It's a nod to that Iron Maiden album.

Oh man, Bureaucracy! Great game by the late Douglas Adams. Fantastic box + manual. Not jealous at all ;-)

Awesome games for the PC there.

Quake 2 is one of my favorite PC games and Quake 3: Arena is one of my favorite Dreamcast games. It has an amazing soundtrack that´s worth "damaging" your speakers with.

This "99Gamers" is something I always wished for. Just went on their website and there it says they're trying to make it available in more countries. I'm from Germany, so please let this happen - would be so great!

I had the wizardry games back in the day but I could never get them to work on my computer.

Barnacules Shirt has been spotted.

I think those trading sites you mentioned are good for certain mid-level games that aren't too high in demand and have a decent supply are within reason to pickup, but games that are highly sought after are tremendously inflated as you had pointed out (Super Metroid, Legend of Zelda). Other online options like Ebay and Amazon have a larger number of buyers and sellers so I would argue for the games that more people are looking to pick up, Ebay and Amazon are much more competitive options that will more than likely drive the price down. If I listed a copy of Super Metroid on Ebay for 75-80 dollars it would never sell because other sellers are pricing and selling their copies around 40. Competition between sellers helps the consumer big time.

I started collecting PS3 gems cas of you. Right now I'm super into the motorstorm series which I paid 89 cents for the first game and I already want the rest of the game series. And I was very impressed by that series, so...so fun and actually challenging. I also picked up Folklore and I shall play it after I beat ni no kuni wrath of the white witch.

Bureaucracy is great! An original game written by Douglas Adams. Their adaptation of Hitchhikers Guide was top notch too!

If you liked Airblade you should check out Trickstyle. It's another Criterion game, with a similar vibe.

Everytime Iam on Seattle's Craiglist, I can never find retro games. I might have really bad luck bu, I am excited to go to the game expo? For all old games and such, going to volunteer. Nice finds :D
