I am scratching my head as to why exactly it went for that much? Mainly because it can?? Like malignantpoodle- WOW.

Is there any way to rig your auctions on Ebay? As in, have other bidders that could be your friends jack up the prices? Wouldn't that just be completely shitty to do to someone?

Makes me wonder.... I am reading through the regulations right now.

Them ebay fanatics are crazy yo. SvC: Chaos is just one of those games that seem to have a status symbol attached to it. I'll bet it sold European though. I can't imagine a USadian would pay those prices to keep it as a conversation piece.

Damn, makes me so glad I got one for $100 a year ago. Slight crush and label ware on my box, but hey it was $100.

This is a status symbol game for sure (people recognize it). I got it cause all my friends know Street Fighter and want to play it.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Seems to me a lot of the MVS titles are trending high price right now ( Like that Iron Clad- another WTF)

Since the other guy paid $100.00 for it.

I almost thought it was the one I sold on here, but I went back through my old photos and found it wasn't the same serial #. I would've gotten on a plane and beat the dude if that was the case

Good game too. Actually manages to play pretty much like Street Fighter. Probably not "deep" or "balanced" but I don't give a damn about that.

Probably not "balanced"

There is NOTHING balanced about SvC, that's what makes the game so damn amazing. I feel amazed that I was able to own a board and NOS kit at one point. Still have my PCB, book, and move-stickers though ;)
