    IIRC games for the 3DO (wasn't Neo Geo, was it?) were in this price range. Graphics were amazing, but not worth the $ IMO. Seems that I recall the price of the console being very high too.

    For an X-Box game, I'd hope they meant $24.99 ;)

    I think you get a massive 40 button controller with it, which is the expensive bit :)

    when you go to buy it, say to the sales person "do you accept cash, CHA CHING! (pull out a wad of cash)"

    always wanted to do that :D .... 40 button controller for one game, not compatible with any other games wouldnt be worth it.

    thats an abomination, no game should ever cost more than a day + 1/2 's work (according to minimum wage that would be approx €87.75).

    considering how large and complex the controller is, you can understand the price. But its still not justified.

    if you are after a neo geo console and games, there are a few companies in the UK who sell these for pennies now as no one wants them, one of the stores that sell them are special reserve i think their addy is www.special-reserve.co.uk they have the consoles for about 60 quid and the games for about 40, the neo geo had some killer arcade games transfered across to it :) a mate of mine used to have one many moons ago, but he paid the full going price at the time :p
