I take good care of my games and I believe this may be my first experience with actually physically losing a game... I woke up today, went through my pile of PS1 games looking fora gameand... it was no longer there. I have searched everywhere and I just can't find it... sure it's cheap now but that's not the point, I shouldn't have to re-buy it in the first place lol. I don't see where it could have gone... I want to play this game pretty bad now. I would have never noticed before that it wasn't there, even though I look through my pile of games a lot, but now because I was specifically looking for it it annoyed me as I have looked everywhere for it.

So this brings the question - has anybody here ever lost a good, old video game?

Probably not a game of everybodys interests, but WCW Mayhem :).

Yeah, not all at once, but as they we're old games I never noticed until ages later. I suspect my girlfriends nephews but I'd do the same thing if I was in their position lol I blame the parents for not letting kids play cool games

I lost Rise of Nations for a PC. It was very frustrating because it was proably my 2nd favorite RTS ever. So I just bought another.

Yes. I have lost my copy of Link's Awekening and I want to play it now really bad. Also, when I moved out of the house a few years ago I left my snes at my parent's with plans to go back and get it. I lived far away at the time so by the time I came back my mom had given it away along with very rare copies of games like Secret of Mana and Lufia and the Fortress of Doom.

I've "lost" my copy of System Shock 2 three times.

The last time I lost it was a good few years ago now, and I still haven't found it. I don't think it's coming back this time :(

I lent Silent Hill to a friend many years ago and forgot about it. He probably still has it, but I don't have his number or address anymore since I moved abroad.

I also lost a rare D&D game called Dragons of flame for the C64.

Yeah, I recently fired up my 3DO and wanted to play Star Control II. I lost hours on that game, it's soooo good. Anyway, I'm found all my old 3DO games but not that one. Looked through all my boxes of games, records, old clothes, etc. and it's nowhere to be found. A very sad day (especially as I doubt I can buy it again).

... also if I do buy it I'll probably be dissapointed as it won't be as awesome as I remember :)

I seem to have lost a large number of Playstation 1 games at some point. But as long as I got to play them, it's all good.

Austin 3:16 says I will come over to the WCW, and... nah, just kidding :P. Although I was a bigger WWF fan, I did indeed love the WCW and ECW as well. I think the WWE has had the perfect history... WCW and ECW get brought out and the fact they were forced to change their name was perfect timing for "a new change". By the way, I never played Nitro, although I did have Thunder, but is Nitro really better? and is there many differences? I would like to get Thunder again at some point along with Nitro :).

I remember one day ( about 7 years ago)after getting home from the local video game store, I had a bunch of new MegaDrive/Genesis game cartridges stored in my pockets (maybe about 4-5) that I got by trading in some other games. Anyway after getting home I got on my bike and took them to my friends house to play with him for a couple hours, after I returned home, I was sad to discover none of my games were in my pocket after they must of fell out when I went over the field full of bumps and holes! I couldn't return to search for them as it was dark and wasnt alloud back out, so the next morning I spent ALL DAY looking for them but they were gone :( I have never been the same since ;(

A few months ago, me and my friends wanted to play some Wrestlemania 2000 which we hadn't played in years. When I went to look for it with all my other N64 games, it was gone.

My dad threw away my Atari 2600 and all it's games. I had Atlantis, Frostbite, Pacman (crappy as that version was, it's still Pacman), and of course, all the classics like Combat and Air to Sea battle. :( It's ancient, but there's something special about that system...

No. I'm pretty careful with my games, and it's never happened to me.

One time I loaned my copy of Mega Man Star Force: Leo (a DS game) to one of my friends and he lost it. Feeling guilty about it, he bought me another copy of the game as a birthday gift...then he found the lost cartridge a few weeks later. Now I have 2 copies of that same game. :P

Yeah, I have had a few games turn up missing, I suspect that my dad threw them away by mistake back in the day. You ever notice though that it isn't until you realize that the game is missing that you really want to play it?

I have, on more than one occasion. Most irritatingly were my complete, boxed copies of Magic Carpet 2 and System Shock 2, both probably sitting around in Virginia somewhere. Problem is, I moved to Georgia about a decade ago, after parental divorce. I doubt I'll get them back now.

I recently discovered that my copy of Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped has vanished. I downloaded it on the Store a couple of years ago so thank Jeebus that Sony put it up there. I have no idea where the physical copy could be.

I lost Sonic R for the PC, and I want to find it so I can rip all of the music from it....and play it too. I also lost Elite Beat Agents for the DS, one of my favorite games on the system (though I am tired of all of the same songs), so I have to deal with its japanese counterpart, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan!. Which has the awesome Fullmetal Alchemist opening (Ready Steady Go) that is pretty hard (especially since I suck at the spinners in both games...). I'd love to be able to find both. I bought R and 3D Blast PC together (I think it was in a bundle) so there's no reason why R should be missing. Usually, as I am a Sega fan, I hold on to all the Sonic games I get.

Yes, twice a long time ago. TMNT 2 The Arcade Game on the NES and Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire for the N64.
