$180 O_o. That's more than I spent getting Nocturne and both DDS games together. 1 like new and 2 brand new.

Yeah, Lycanthroat, I think you win in terms of who over payed the most.

I'm beginning to think I really lucked out.  I won't lie though, it's a refreshing change of pace from the cartridge/early CD console days when I was shelling out hundreds of dollars for import Super Famicom and PSX games.

Remember kids! Region encoding is about price control as much as "piracy".

I never really understood the whole region encoding thing.  Someone needs to explain to me why that deters software pirates.  It sucks having to bust open your console systems and ruin warranties just to play import games, in lieu of shelling out beau coup dollars for import systems.

^I just use a slide card on my newer fat PS2.  Didn't feel like playing imports on a slim since it takes more work imo (and I'm used to using the slide card).

I got the DDS boxset new for 40$ I think, and with it I got the extra cd of the game music with it.

Then I got DDS2 new on Amazon.com for $20 bucks I think.

It's just harder to find these games since there weren't as many published as your typical games like say Final Fantasy or MGS (me thinks).  So that's why they're usually more expensive when you do actually find them.

All in all DDS has been my favorite of the SMT games.  Persona runs a close second, but in my own opinion at least, DDS is alot like Persona, just more.  The only thing I didn't really like about DDS was the dungeon size, but the story was great and not that cliche.

I went to all of the Gamestops in my area.
Only had DDS2
I hate starting a game past half way.
Ruins the gaming experience for me.

So I'm still searching for DDS1
Ebay or Amazon won't work for me
No credit card :[
