Complete games
West Front: Elite Edition - complete (with large box and manual), $1.50 Talonsoft wargame. It's complex as expected and I've only been an occasional wargame player, but a complete, quality wargame for $1.50, with its full thick manual? Yeah, sure. The box isn't in great shape, but oh well.
Gangsters: Organized Crime - complete (with large box and manual), $1.50. Another very cheap strategy game... I wasn't sure if I had this one, but then I realized that the one I have is Mob Rule, not this. Not sure if I'll like it or not, but for that price it's worth trying. The box is in bad shape for this game as well, and the manual is a bit warped. Oh, the manual is pretty sizable. I love large box PC games. :)
Empire: Total War - $2, complete (with dvd-style case, map, and manual) - Why, even though I got it on Steam? Well, it's nice to have the physical thing, I'll be able to install it without having to free up 15GB on drive C first (before I can move the files to another drive), and it comes with a nice techtree poster... tiny little manual though.
Jewelcase only titles
Ring - $3.99. A 1999 adventure game based off of Wagner's Ring Cycle opera. Got mixed reviews, but I want to try it anyway. Dual jewel, four discs with manual.
Pac-Man: Adventures in Time - $1. One of the first 3d Pac-Man titles. Probably mediocre? We'll see.
Quake II - $2 (manual was separate)
Strife - $2 - 1996 FPS running in an id engine.
Virtual Springfield - $1 (no manual)
Monarch: The Butterfly King - $1 (no manual) - simple little puzzle game.
Dreamcast
--
Railroad Tycoon II: Gold Edition - $1, complete - Normally I wouldn't have bought something like this (so clearly better on PC), but for $1, I'll try it... interesting to have anyway.
SNES
--
Pinocchio - $4, cart only - 1996 platformer with great animation.
PSX
--
Wreckin Crew - $3, complete - It's a low budget Mario Kart clone. Looked maybe amusing and it was cheap.
