Aces High Software for Sale on Ebay?
« on: March 20, 2014, 10:36:38 AM »
I was searching on eBay and noticed a listing that raised my overly bushy eyebrow.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/ACES-HIGH-Combat-Flight-Simulator-PC-Game-100-BRAND-NEW-/151205052257?pt=AU_PC_Video_Games_Games&hash=item233485ff61#ht_1801wt_1125

There's a boxed version of Aces High?   :huh  Is this some guy downloading the game, burning it to DVD and selling it?

Apologies in advance if this has been covered before.

Thanks!  I had no idea! 

Maybe I'll buy one so I can show my grandkids what I wasted a significant portion of my life on for 9+ years.   :D

I do not know what it sold for.  It came with a coupon to get the equivalent amount of online time matching the cost of the box.  No sheep.

How hard would it be to sell this type of product at Walmart and Gamestop.  Maybe even BestBuy.


I know if I saw a box like that in the Pc gaming aisle I would pick it up for $20.00 since it is cheaper than a lot of FPS games.

Just a thought.

Another thought is to have a booth with these at a airshow.   THunderbirds are going to be 2 hours from the house a tinker AFB on June 21&22

Publishers only publish what they think they can make money on.

HTC is not a publisher.
