Sly 2 - Gang of Thieves (PS2)
Bloody Roar 3 (PS2)
... $3 each. Sly 2 I'm hoping will live up to its really good reputation (it should, Rocket was awesome), Bloody Roar is every bit as awful as I remember it. I knew that, why couldn't I resist buying it anyway...
I also got four N64 sports games for free, but those aren't worth mentioning.
Oh yeah, and I've been playing a lot of SNES Doom. It's been in my SNES all week. So awesome!
I'd never gotten past the first level or two of Doom before (on PC) you see... actually playing it now, it's amazing. Just beat the first campaign (Knee-Deep in the Dead) today... really hard, it took me most of the week to get through those seven levels (didn't get to the hidden one, and one level was removed from the PC's original 9 -- SNES Doom has 22 of the PC's original 27 levels in it, but they are direct ports, unlike most of the other console versions, which mostly have smaller, simplified maps... that's true on 32X, Jaguar, GBA, 3DO, PSX, Saturn... of the console versions only SNES, Xbox (included with one of the Doom 3 versions) and 360 have the PC maps.). I'm so bad at FPSes... intense game, though. Creepy sometimes, too...
... on a related note, I've never gotten past level three or so of Duke Nukem 3D (PC) either... and Hexen was the first FPS I owned, but gave up in like the second area or something... haven't gotten more than a couple levels into Dark Forces 1 either. Tribes: Vengeance? Maybe halfway. At least I played it a good bit though, unlike these other titles (or Doom before this last week). I got to the first save point in Turok 2 and that's it (though that is like two hours into the game). I barely started (Jedi Knight 4:) Jedi Academy, but that's only average.
The only FPSes I've actually finished are Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Star Trek: Voyager: Elite Force, Star Wars: Dark Forces II: Jedi Knight, Jedi Knight: Mysteries of the Sith, Goldeneye (Agent difficulty only), and Perfect Dark (Agent only; got to final mission in Secret Agent but couldn't beat it). Oh, and Turok: Rage Wars with like three characters, but that takes an hour per character or so.
