I have DDR MAX2, Extreme and Extreme 2, and I don't want to go on the Internet to find the rest. I'm looking for any store that sells PS2 games in-store. I don't like online shopping unless it's absolutely necessary.

The UK has CEX, not sure if America does.

(got THPS3, DS:Euromix 2 and Crazy Taxi for a quid fifty each there, so it's a cool place)

Gamestop is genereally known for selling PS2 games on the cheap. They often have 75% off on all titles, which is amazing when you consider how low they already are. You could use their website locator as well for finding which location has the specific title you want. A Lincoln-on-paper should get you at least 3-4 different DDR games if they've got a deal going on.

The gamestops that still sell PS2 games probably have them for $1-$5

Wait, what? How? AFAIK there was never a CS version of EuroMIX2 released. Unless you meant EuroMIX (1) on the PS1?

To answer the thread, I'd look into local stores that might sell older games. My partner and I found one near to us that had a couple of PS2 DDR titles we picked up. Other places might be Goodwill and such, though there's always a risk you won't find anything; it's really down to chance.

Speaking of goodwill, you should try and find people running community garage sales and/or flea markets. You'll find tons of people selling truckloads of PS2 games there, with the most common kinds being music games and sport games. I find that Extreme and SuperNOVA are particularly common among most garage sales and the like.

Megamix, possibly? I always see that about.

After finally getting to play MAX and MAX2 US CS versions I resent any US residents complaints about getting screwed over compared to Japan even more than I used too. I'd take PAL printed copies of those games over the exclusive licences we got in MegaMIX and Fever in a heartbeat, and the US got a better version of Love at First Sight anyway.

I guess it's supposed to all be relative, but there's generally a much better a choice of PS2 US games than PAL, even if Extreme/Fusion and Extreme2/Max were about even in quality.

I guess this is what it must feel like to be a US resident playing Japanese releases for the first time, Extreme CS especially.

That said, I've noticed that X2 on the PS2 appears to be somewhat rare and expensive, and its the only main series release I currently don't have.

Collections, eh?

My PAL collection is complete. The 'US-exclusive' collection is missing X2, Disney Grooves and Ultramix 3.

I started collecting them about 12 months ago, and the rarest and most expensive was definitely New Moves, followed by Hottest Party 5 and DDR X2, then Winx Club and PAL SuperNOVA 2. Everything else is in the £1 - £2 range.

@ Grizzlies96: Are you serious!? Never heard of a place called GameStop?

@ everyone else: I think that X2, HP3 and Disney Grooves are the hardest to find. I myself only need Disney Grooves then my US collection will be complete, If anyone happens to have an extra copy of Disney Grooves please hook a brotha up. Eventually I want to get the JPN versions as I have 2nd Mix and Club Version on Dreamcast.

I don't blame him if he wants to avoid GameStop. It's a shitty place all around.

To BMhedgehog and Quickman: I read online that GameStop doesn't sell PS2 games anymore, and I checked in with every GS within 30 minutes from my home.

Have you tried Game Xchange?:

http://www.gogamexchange.com/

I went to one in Connecticut. They have a HUGE catalog of PS2 games in-store for a good price. Buy/Sell/Trade places like this always have PS2 games usually. Research online for more of these places. Yeah Gamestop stopped selling PS2 games a while ago, and it's not likely that you're gonna find any in Gamestops these days anymore. Like I said, try GameXchange and other buy/sell/trade places, because I think that's the only option you have left. Idk why you're against buying online honestly. You can find good deals online too.

They should really consider putting a Game Xchange in the Poconos of PA.
