Any system.
New or Used.
For me, it was about $115 CDN for the Bioshock 2 Special Edition (PS3).

I'm trying to think of what game I overpaid for...but I'm drawing a blank here.
I tend not to buy 69.99 stickered games unless it's something I REALLY wanna play, if it's something I'm meh about then I usually wait for it to go down in price, trade in old, unwanted games, wait for a preowned to show up, or acquire it by other means. I think...FF13 was about 74 because I pre ordered it, but even then it was something my Grandma got me...not something I bought myself. Oh, and I tend not to buy collectors/limited editions of games either.

For an individual game (game ONLY, no special editions) $99.99 for Phantasy Star IV new for Genesis, when it first game out. I actually have three copies now, two of which are unopened.
If you want to get technical, Uncharted (original) cost me over $550, because of the PS3 that was necessary for it.

I also bought Phantasy Star 4 when it first came out for 99.99. I also bought an import n64 when it first came out just for mario 64. The total price was like 500 bucks.
Wow ... What was so special for it ? Anyways the most I've ever paid for a game is full regular retail price... Normally I wait for sales or for them to go half off :laugh:

Aside from the game (obviously):
-A LP Vinyl Record of the First Bioshock's OST
-Bioshock 2's OST (CD)
-Three posters that are in-game
-a 260 page art book
-Big case to keep it all in (with art on it)
And it was limited to a Single Production run.
It's alot more than just a Tin-case and some small 50 page art book.

I don't think this counts. You didn't buy it yourself ;P
