That Sonic Blast box must be sporting the worst box art I've seen this side of a Quickshot Supervision game.

For the princely sum of 98p, managed to snag Operation Winback, Army Men: Sarge's War and MotoGp3 on PS2 from GAME this afternoon, 49p each, 3 for 2.

It's absurd, innit? :o

I'm the same as Grizz here. I knew there would always be one or two that might be a little bit of a pain to find, but never to the degree that those two, Tails Adventure and 2 in 1 have taken to find. I think once I do eventually get 2 in 1 if ever, I'll probably be a little disappointed. Always found it satisfying trying to hunt these games out. :)

The rest of the collection is mostly a breeze. It's just the sheer volume of games that's the problem!

Bought a 360 scrolling shooter Death Smiles. Was mega cheap on one of those online 'one day sales' at a local store. A quick google told me it'd be okay in the collection as a good arcadey burst. And yeah, fun enough. Lotsa weird imagery, which is cool.

It's the Xenoblade ltd edition that I'm after, shame it goes for so bloody much at the moment.

Today I spotted a copy of Another Code for the DS for a straight fiver that I just had to have as been after it for a while now.
