Have you ever bought a used PlayStation 2 game that includes more than just the game and - if you're lucky - its manual? I have. Twice. The first time was circa 2006, which was, you know, when Sony was still cranking out PS2 games. I picked up Suikoden IV from my local GameStop. Not a great game, mind you, but at least I could treasure the $2 bill that its previous owner inexplicably snuck between the manual's last few pages. The second time was about a decade ago, and unfortunately, I don't smoke the substance that I found inside a tiny bag nestled behind the disc, but hey. You win some, you lose some.
One gamer recently struck the jackpot with a collection of cheat codes for Grand Theft Auto 3. Sure, you can look those up on the internet. But back in 2001, when Rockstar's third game in the GTA series (but honestly, like, also its first) made its grand debut, not everybody had the internet yet. Plus, it'd be annoying to have to keep rushing over to your monitor to check GameFAQs, since it's not like your Nokia 3310 cellphone is going to be any help....
