    I hadn't either. It's a sequel to star wars episode 1 racer that was released on PS2 however the version used for this is the physical PS4 version which was produced by limited run games in limited quantities.

    God bless Limited Run Games and their bizarre, seemingly-nonsensical business model. They made a physical release of Doom with a deluxe edition where *the box the game came in* could play Doom. They're modern-day Willie Wonkas.

      So in other words, scalpers heard about it, bought up as many of the damn things as they could at $50, and then raised the rate 10-fold. Which is why scalpers are some of the lowest scum on the earth.

        Or you could buy one, and jailbreak ps5s and sell them on eBay for a profit, or offer it as a service. I can't imagine breaking 500 dollars would be to hard

          I got outlaws from the library a few days ago and I'm guessing the forced stealth areas got taken out because it's not a bad game

            That's one complaint I tend to ignore when seen mentioned, since the problem for me isn't that the stealth is forced. It's fine to have a stealth mission *if the stealth mechanics work.* The problem tends to be that it's not just forced upon you, but also sucks shit making it more frustrating than it would be if the stealth mechanics were good. When shitty stealth is optional, nobody complains. When good stealth is forced, nobody complains.

              Not if you actually step into the 21st century and use a fucking _adblocker_.

                Iโ€™ve started full-on blocking domains on my pihole for websites that have started to host their own intrusive/tracking ads, break due to other ad domains being blocked, have non-bypassable adblock blocker, or whatever other anti-choice nonsense. Like IMDb wonโ€™t load content with the ad elements blocked, so IMDb is just blocked as a whole. Fuck you, I wonโ€™t do what you tell me! Hasnโ€™t been a substantial degradation in experience, if Iโ€™m being honest. Barely even notice it outside of one-off searches and stuff, and having to find a new source of info about what Iโ€™m watching (if anyone has recommendations, Iโ€™d love them!!)

                    Original xbox too. Mech assault and 007 were the games on that system. And you needed to download the modded save and get it onto a save card too.

                    Also splinter cell. I still have my modded controller that I added a USB port to for moving saved games via flash drive.

                      Stuff like that happened with the Wii and 3DS. Suddenly a random LEGO game that's not being produced anymore becomes the hottest game on the second hand market because it can be used to inject code and install homebrew. Until someone finds another way in at least.

                      It felt great when the jailbreak for Wii came out and the vulnerability was in the Zelda game everyone had.

                          If it can be done with this game, I'm sure there's a way to make a disk that does it without this game.

                                More like Capitalism Plus in the case of scalpers.
