Ok, so if you remember that past thread of mine in this gaming forum (one of my very few in here rather than the OT), you'll know now that I went against the majority's advice and still got myself a Gamecube. And I love it. With the little free time I have now with work, I spend a great deal of time just playing games, and now I am overjoyed to have one of these gaming backlogs that many of you here speak of. I spent quite a bit of time trying to unlock stuff in SSBM, but my reflexes don't seem to be good enough to finish a lot of the challenges, so I guess I'll just play lots and lots of cheap and quick VS. matches against the CPU. For now I'm thoroughly engrossed in Zelda:TWW. I haven't even really started Metroid Prime or Tales of Symphonia yet.

Anyway, I've been looking to buy a few more bargain games, but it seems impossible to find them new anywhere. Every store in my area either doesn't have them at all, or has them used, but in pretty crappy condition. The games I seek are as follows:

Soul Calibur II
Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader
Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike

I know that Soul Calibur III is coming out soon, but I still want II because I love the series, and III will probably be full price for a while. I noticed that, while SCII is available online via Amazon/Target, the other two I cannot find anywhere except through the used avenues. Did they just stop producing these games entirely or something?

I don't know, maybe your town has a lot of Gamecube-owning Star Wars and green tights fans?

I think Rogue Leader was discontinued but I think Rebel Strike is still being made. Personally I see lots of brand new Rebel Strike's and Soul Calibur II's at my stores, almost never see a brand new Rogue Leader though.

Yeah I kind of regret selling Rogue Leader now.

The last time I went to Costco, there were about 50 copies of the GC Soul Calibur II on the shelves at $15.99. I think most Toys 'R' Us are loaded down with them, too.

Rebel Strike is terrible. Absolutely god awful.

 

[gstaff]

I'm trying to figure out why I got rid of Rogue Leader

 

[The End]

Rebel Strike is terrible. Absolutely god awful.

Oh C'mon, there are a couple of good missions.

That said, whoever said "we need on-foot missions" needs to be dragged out in the street and shot.

 

[Ganondorf>Link]

Rebel Strike is terrible. Absolutely god awful.

The 1 player isn't that bad. And its worth the purchase for the co-op alone.

 

[DaCocoBrova]

Rebel Strike is terrible. Absolutely god awful.

You exaggerate.

 

[Warm Machine]

Rebel Strike has some of the worst bullshit levels ever in a game. Anything to do with the AT-ST or on foot is awful. You basically run around taking thousands of hits mow loads of stuff down and have 0 satisfaction while doing so. Rebel Strike is one of the prettiest pieces of junk ever made.

If you don't mind buying online, Game Express has all three in stock:

Soul Calibur II $17.99

Star Wars Rogue Squadron II $19.49

Star Wars Rogue Squadron III $17.99

They're reliable, in fact I just received 4 PS2 RPGs from them today. Rebel Strike III is actually cheaper than Rogue Leader, heh.
