Any good US/NTSC online gaming stores?

[Arachna]

I need a hand finding a good and trusted supplier of NTSC games, in specific Xenosaga I and III (I already own II). I cannot find copies of I and III here as only II was released in Australia and the site I usually use to import games (Play-asia.com) have no more copies of either game.

So far I am aware of Amazon and EBgames (which has a used copy of Ep1 for $5).

FWIW I'm haven't finished Xenogears so please don't mention any spoilers. I'm currently at the part

Spoiler: show

where I just got shot down in the Goliath by Bart and I'm now just about to introduce Rico to Bart.

so I'm assuming I'm probably only 1/3 or so of the way through the game.

Welcome to Video Games Plus Online

This is the site that I use, it's cheap and has been very reliable for me so far. The games came quickly and I hassle free. Only issue is that they only accept some credit cards, for anything else you'll need to use paypal.

Why do you own 2, instead of 1 or 3. >_>


Xenogears takes around 80h the first time. 1/3 sound about right, but it might be a bit less.

It's the same with me, I only have 2, could never find 1 or 3 (well, honestly never bothered to look for them). I think it's cause only 2 came out in the PAL regions.

Guess that answer it, kinda lame.

Just giving this one bump to try my luck and see if anyone can recommend any other reliable sites. Also as pointed out Xenosaga 2 is the only game in the trilogy to be released into PAL countries, there is a DVD included with the game that will apparently cover what happened in Xenosaga 1 so I won't be too lost. However from what I've gathered Saga 2 is considered the worst of the trilogy so it might end up putting me off completely from the series if I played it before Saga 1.

Can't help you with your importer situation, but do not play Ep. II first its title of worst in the trilogy is justified, 1 is really good and 3 makes up for the pile of poo 2 was and then some.
