Upgrading My Darksiders Games on Xbox 360

 Upgraded my copies of the Darksiders Games on the Xbox 360

Darksiders Series on Xbox 360

First up 

I have had this copy for awhile

Picked up the Digital Hellbook

The Digital Hellbook was a Pre-Order Bonus for Darksiders and Features:

Digital art book, videos, icons, wallpaper, screensaver and more from the game.

Another game I had actually had already picked up twice before

First Time I found the Standard Edition HERE

And about a week later

 I picked up the Limited Edition HERE

Well. I guess this time (4 years later) makes it a third time

But is Complete Complete

 with all original Inserts

Including a Mini Comic

Xbox 360 Game Pre-Order Bonus Items

 Picked up a New to me game, and the pre order bonus items for this game, as well as the preorder item for another.

For Stranglehold

Pre-Order Bonus Artbook

Example of Middle of Book

and a Game Tie In for a Great Movie

The Bourne Conspiracy 

Preview DVD

Turning Point Fall of Liberty Xbox 360

 Another of my homemade "Ultimate Editions", Turning Point Fall of Liberty for Xbox 360

I had have the regular edition for years at this point

But

Found the Walmart Edition

That had a Special Code.

and

Collector's Edition Steelbook

With lots of Extras

Artbook

Bonus Disc with Making of Doc and the Soundtrack

and

Double Sided Poster

All of it Together

Thick Stack in the case.

The Case is pretty hefty now

More PS2 Games with Bonus Discs

 Picked up a couple more games for the Playstation 2 that came with a Bonus Disc.

First up, I already had the standard edition of this game, 

which I sold for more then I bought this Bonus DVD Version for?

Sonic Riders

With an Exclusive Sonic X DVD

Game Disc

And DVD

Next is one I had been aware of for the last 3 Years.

I had not seen one with the Bonus Disc, But many without.

I also Paid about 4 times what I usually will pay for a nice complete game,

But Again I had not seen one with the Bonus Disc for 3+ Years now, So Had to.

Psi-Ops

On the Back top right corner shows its the bonus version

Game Disc

And Soundtrack CD

I was hoping to get this for the Original Xbox. 

And I actually have the Proper Case Artwork for the Xbox version. 

Calls out the CD right on Front, Making it easier to find scrolling online.

So I might get the standard art for the PS2 and Get the Standard Xbox Version to put the CD in. 

But Like I mentioned, This was the First time in several years I have seen the Actual Soundtrack with one.

Frontlines Fuel of War Xbox 360

 I like Collecting Various Versions or Variations of Games to make my own "Ultimate Editions" 

(As I did HERE with Star Wars The Force Unleashed 2)

Working on my Xbox 360 Collection, I have come across a couple different Variations for 

Frontlines Fuel of War.

3 Different Versions

The Most Common one (Aside from one without any extra things) 

is the one with the Code for an extra Single Player Level

This was Available From either Gamestop or Best Buy

I was not able to determine which map was exclusive to which retailer

or

If it was Random from either which Code you got.

If anyone knows, feel free to comment below.

Next was a Soundtrack CD

This one was Exclusive to Circut City

and finally, one that seems to be rather Uncommon.

As I have alluded to before, many times the exclusive items are missing from various games when they are being sold on the 2nd hand market. I have only seen this next one without the Item twice, and finally this one, Which I bought for $11.25 off eBay actually had the Item with it

I was unable to find out which retailer or where this was from.

Again, If anyone knows where this one was from, feel free to comment below.

And Just because as I was perusing online to find these games, I came across a PC edition that had the Mini Brady Game Guide. Since I have several other Xbox 360 games from Best Buy that came with one, I figured why Not add the guide to my "Ultimate Edition"?. Plus I only paid $5-6.00 shipped

.

Half Price Books Game Pickups

 Got a 15% off Coupon From Half Price Books for my Birthday, So of course I had to swing by one of their stores and see what I could pickup, went to a different one than my local/usual one.

First Up a Playstation Game

BeyBlade Let It Rip

Complete

and next a Super Nintendo Game

Road Riot 4WD

Nice Shape!

And for those picky collectors

Check Out that Label!

And a Xbox 360 Game I have been trying to get for a Decent Price, you know I love my Racing Games!

I played it for a good 4-5 hours the next morning.

Blur

Complete and in Nice Shape!

I was excited to find this for $8.49 (with the 15% off) as Complete and in this great condition as of August of 2023, It generally sells for $20-$25.00.

Dark Arena for Gameboy Advance

 Somewhere during my online Travels, I came across pictures of this game:

Pic of box I found on Google

I just got the Cartridge for $7.00 Shipped off Mercari

I Played it on the TV through my Gamecube Gameboy Advance Player, Which I have had since the early 2000's, Pretty sure I bought it Brand New on Clearance from Toys "R" Us for $25.00?

The reason I Immediately liked it and had to have it, was that it is clearly an Original Doom Clone

The original Doom series is one of my absolute favorite games so I HAD to have this!

If you are a fan of the original Doom than you need to pic this up!
