What are your "holy grails"?

My holy grail nowadays is the Naked Snake lifesize statue *_*


It's not only a problem of money (I could afford it), but until I got my personal house, I don't have the space to place it

 

For me, would be Half-Life, I had to make a trade for a entire portal 2 script which can no longer be found, for it. Its from January of 1998, and its unplayable.
The beta of course, has never been leaked, the person who sent me this got it from some garage sale.

 

Thinking on it, I'd love to get my hands on some early MGS builds from times where they were experimenting with the system, as well as the speculated Saturn build. That would be awesome, unrealistic but awesome.

 

My holy grails are anything unreleased for the dreamcast, particularly playable builds of anything that is a part of:

-Jet Grind Radio 2
-Monkey Ball
-Gunvalkyrie
-Boarder Zone
-Dee Dee Planet
-Whiplash 2
-any other SEGA created games or ports of arcade games, such as Planet Harriers

 

Megaman Legends 3 Prototype is another one I wouldn't mind getting my hands on. Not holy by any means, but something of interest for me, something I was looking forward to messing around with.

 

-Resident Evil 1.5
-Shadow of the Colossus/Nico prototype
-Earthbound 64
-Zelda 64dd Prototype
-Ura Zelda (64DD expansion for Ocarina of time)
-Tomb Raider Early alpha/Concept (1995)
-Castlevania Resurrection

 

You can always play it on Xbox.

 

dont own anything rare, the thing i treasure most that i own is my arcade version of vs super mario bros

far as things i would love to own
a earlier then the released version of wwf no mercy. everything was changeable, moves, costumes, and all in a beta version before the final version. i think kid rocks american bada** was undertakers theme song in the beta also

a psx beta of smackdown 2 know your role with big show and shamrock included.
a psx beta of spider-man or spider-man 2

 

For a second I thought I was in the "What's the rarest thing you own" thread, and I was like "What."

 

Halo 2 first e3 beta....

 

-super mario 3d? (snes)
-comanche (snes)
-zero tolerance beta (sega genesis)
-virtua fighter (sega genesis: svp)
-sonic mars (sega genesis: 32x)
-earthbound 64 (n64)
-final fantasy vi (n64 tech demo)
-final fantasy vii beta (psx)
-ico (psx build)
-silent hill (psx early build)
-shenmue (saturn build)
-mgs (saturn build)
-policenauts eng (saturn)
-shenmue 1/2 (dreamcast early build ~1998)
-final fantasy x (ps2 early tgs build)
-biohazard 3,5 (gamecube early build)
-alan wake (pc e3 2005 build)
-ninokuni (ds early build ~2008)
that's what I want)

 

Surprised this hasn't been mentioned yet:

- Build (or even a lot more assets) of Team Fortress 2: Brotherhood of Arms (first iteration of TF2 on the HL1 engine).

 

:drool::love2:

 

Mine are(in no particular order):

Earthbound 64
Pokemon stadium DD
Lufia Ruin Chasers PSX prototypes
Mega Drive Lufia II Prototypes

If anyone by any chance has these, pm me

 

Final Fantasy II for NES prototype

 

Yes, both of them. Loved how the military version looked like.

 

Source code to Metroid: Prime.

 

Killer Instinct 1 n64 proto. -Ever since I saw those guys playing it at the end of the DKC TreeHouse vhs, I have pined for that game. KI Gold was very disappointing for me.

Super Mario 3D for the snes. I would be happy with a single screenshot.
Mother 3 64DD
Metroid Dread
Dinosaur Planet
Saturn VF3
Any early build of Wipeout, especially if there is a version that resembles the one from the movie "hackers".

 

I would have to say the Splitscreen build of Resident Evil: Outbreak. Because it did exist at one point, but technical issues kept it from being in the final build(or so they say, or was that it was found in the code? I can't remember which)

Lets add:

Snake Plitssken PS2 (unreleased)
FF7 (don't ever recall there being a beta released for that)
Any beta for the Tecmo Deception series.
Resident Evil 1.5 (been following this one for years)
Mutant League Football/Hockey (be nice to see if anything was cut)
The unreleased Mutant League game(was it basketball?)

 

You're absolutely right. :thumbsup:
