FIREWALL: Man vs. Machine is THE most expensive 3DO game that I've ever seen. AFIK, it was only released in Korea, and I found a complete copy on Ebay for $600.00! :shock: Which is too bad, because it looks fun to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0a0xW4ULmw

There's another Korean 3DO exclusive, Eye of Typhoon, which sold at auction for around $1400 last I knew. 3DO actually has a bunch of the priciest optical disc games -- most really high-dollar games are on cartridges, but the rarest 3DO titles fetch about as much as any disc games do. A couple LaserActive titles are in the same range.

Yeah, that's why I want to get a Sega CD. I realize that the video compression is not as good as it is on the 3DO, but the FMV titles are generally cheaper. Diddo for PS1 and Saturn FMV games that were on the 3DO.

$600 for an FMV rail shooter? No thanks...
