I have been searching through all these retail stores in my area for a PS3 version of Bladestorm, but I have not seen any copies of the game any where.

Did KOEI make less PS3 versions to save money or something? I even noticed online that some stores like Gamestop have removed the PS3 version and kept the Xbox 360 one instead.

Even on eBay there are very limited copies and most are imported and sell for a bucket load. People are also saying it's a rare game.

Most people who got the PS3 version don't want to give it up, I imagine. The X-Box type of gamers just don't "get" this game, so that's why its in greater circulation....maybe?

>_>

Sounds reasonable to me at least.

You're lucky then. Europe and Australia must have gotten all of the PS3 copies. I'm mostly seeing them on eBay selling for lots of money.


I can't believe no places have it.

Here in Holland, I have only seen the X360 version of Bladestorm one time. I keep seeing the PS3 version of Bladestorm everytime I go into a gameshop. Maybe you should move to Europe or Australia, then? :P

The prices are way too much. The game has been out for more than a year or so. It shouldn't cost $50 or more.


I don't trust the 3rd parties on Amazon because they screwed over my brother last year when he bought something. eBay is fine because you can tell when someone is scamming you or selling BS.

Ouch :s Didn't know Bladestorm on PS3 is hard to find in USA... Hope you'll succeed to find one copy, Jsun.
Yeah, the solutions you've are Amazon (price are expensive) or EBay (you may have to wait until a BS Game on PS3 is on sale :s) Good luck! ;)

In France I saw many Bladestorm on PS3 as on XBox360 in supermarket, don't know if there're a difference of game quantity for each console, but now BS French version on XBox360 is very cheap. (By the way don't see that for BS on PS3...)

i was at my local GameStop this week pre-ordering some things and picking up Loco Roco 2, and happened to remember your thread Jsun. i found three used copies at $34.99, and a new copy at $59.99. there must be some way to figure this out?

here's one on PlayAsia, so you'd have to pay the shipping, but it's around the same price as well:

I have quite the same story here in New Zealand! Bladestorm for PS3 is indeed a rare game to find! Either Koei didn't make enough or people bought and keep the game because I couldn't find a new one on online store I usually pre-order my game from but guess what they have the xbox360 version! Then I looked for a pre-owned one from TradeMe (NZ version of eBay) and my local EBgames store but still couldn't find any!
