    I pretty much grab whtever games I see in the wild if they look nice, are cheap, and I don't have them. So I have games for systems that I don't own, like Atari 400/800 and Intellivision. But I always do it with the attitude of 'Well, at some point I will get one of these". I really hate it when I find systems in the wild but have no games to play on them, so this is a way for me to try to avoid that. When I found a Saturn in the wild but had absolutely no Saturn games to play, it was driving me nuts until I found some.

    I've got DMC 2 just because it's part of the series but i can never bring myself to actually play it. Same thing with Aquaman. I bough it specifically because it was the biggest peice of shit of this generation and i swore that it would never enter my gamecubes drive.

    I also Have a Japanese copy of D for the sega saturn but unfortunately i don't have a Saturn to play it on.

    Bought a boxed combat way before I got my atari
    Bought Katamari Damacy the day it came out months before I owned a ps2
    I own 4 xbox games and am finally getting my own xbox this week
    Bought a colecovision game a long time before I got a coleco
    Thats about it, but I've bought lots of games when I know I have a system coming in the mail.

    I don't have a Wonderswan Color system, but I do have an unopened Final Fantasy II for decoration. Bought it at an anime convention for one of those end of con discounts. Got it for 15 bucks sealed.

    Also traded my GBASP for a PC Engine CD game. But I still have complete copies of Castlevania: CotM (my very first GBA game), Gradius Galaxies, Lunar Legend, and Japanese versions of Final Fantasy I & II and Breath of Fire still in my shelf.

    How would you know it's a piece of shit without playing it? Hell, a good number of reviewers didn't even bother playing it, they just paraphrased other reviews.

    From people that have actually played it, I gather it's just a sub par beat 'em up.

    and anyway, Drake of the 99 Dragons would like to have a word with you.

    Edit - I just looked over at my gamecube rack and saw Die Hard Vendetta. Hah. Try playing that game without the auto aim on and experience the most frustrating aiming scheme ever, or you can turn on the auto aim and play through the easiest first person shooter ever. THE CHOICE IS YOURS.

    And on topic -> I have a couple of Xbox games I want to play but can't because I don't have an Xbox yet and no one will lend me theirs

    Edit 2 -> I'll be picking up FEAR next month just because I have to buy every Monolith game at launch, even though my PC won't run it

    I've had Rondo of Blood for over a year now with no Turbo Duo or PC Engine. I've only played it once, shortly after it arrived, when a friend brought over his PC Engine. I seriously need to get a job before I can drop that kind of dough all at once.

    I also have a few Game Gear games, and I've yet to buy a Game Gear. I'm planning to soon, though.

    And even though it only kind of counts, I have three US PS2 games and no US PS2 to play them on, but I can pretty much borrow my brother-in-law's PS2 whenever I want (since he lives with us).

    Ok i admit i should've said one of the biggest peices of shit of this generation. I played it at the store to make sure the disc worked and even the little bit i played there was terrible.

    You save my sympathy over Die Hard Vendetta. What a peice of carp. No matter which way you play the game sucks.

    Add P.N.03 to the list of games i can't bring myself to play and my sealed japanese copy of D2 to the list of games i own i won't play. I love the D series. I have to keep that one sealed.

    I owned Lunar 1 for ages before I could play it. For some odd reason it didn't work with my boot disc, so I had to wait to emulate it.

    I have a copy of Splatterhouse for the TG16 that I can't play. When I had my Duo I played it all the time, though.

    I need another Duo.
