If you have a FuncoLand in your area, go there. They sell games cheap, I got some pretty good SNES ones there. You could also try www.ebay.com ...

But if you want to buy a game in a standard store, usually games are around $50+..unless its a GBA game, which it's usually about $30. But in either case, you don't have enough.

Thats not completly true. Sony just released the Greatest Hits line which are $20. Tony Hawk 3 for the GC is also $20. There are numerous PSX and N64 games for less than that also.

I just bought Wild Arms for around $10. Check used game stores, its the only way you'll find anything worthwile for under $20.

Starcraft! Don't forget Starcraft.

OK, so it's not really a console game...but it's undedr 20 bucks and worth it's weight in gold.

That's what people with fast connections can do. ;p Believe it or not though, it's sometimes best to PAY for it. Like WarCraft III, you rip that off and you are still getting screwwed. Why? No CD Key to play on Bnet, you would have to fuck around with patches/hacks to get each version to work, and try to get ones to let you even play multiplayer.

actually, my ripped HL with my friend's CDkey doesn't work for singleplayer, multi is fine - which is good because i can play good stuff like counter-strike.
