The console broke records on the first day of its release, with sales of the console, games, and accessories pulling in $250 million.

However, it was discontinued 13 years later, in 2013, just one year after Sony released the PlayStation 3.

Because of this, some PS2 games have turned into sought-after collector’s items with hefty price tags.

Titles once deemed mainstream and ordinary are now worth a fortune thanks to several factors.

These include limited production runs, cult followings, and a growing wave of retro gaming enthusiasts.

One title that exemplifies this is Silent Hill 2, which was released on September 24, 2001.

SILENT HILL 2

Silent Hill 2 is a survival horror game developed by Team Silent and published by Konami.

The game was released originally for the PlayStation 2 as the second installment in the popular Silent Hill series.

The video game can earn $95.99 in loose condition (just the game), according to PriceCharting.com.

Complete in the box (CIB), the video game can sell for around $130.

And in new condition, the title can earn sellers a whopping $592.96.

SILENT HILL 3

Silent Hill 2 is not the only video game that can make owners some cash; Silent Hill 3 is also worth quite a bit.

Released in 2003, Silent Hill 3 can sell for around $111.93 in loose condition and $153.89 CIB.

Meanwhile, in new condition, the video game can bring in $468.24.
