Seems that I've gone nuts:
In last couple of months I bought games that I KNOW that I only may play once (if I even play them at all) ,for the reason just to have them cause they are something "special".It's hard to explain but I give examples:
Real Bass Fishing (Pal,Gamecube) for 29 euros
Ty the tasmanian tiger (Pal,Gamecube): can u get anymore avarage?
Dual Heroes (Pal,N64): ok,this one I actually bought for my N64-collection
and so on
I don't really know why I'm buying them but sometimes I even think:" Maybe my friend (who is fisher) likes it and a fishing game is pretty weird anyway".
I would understand my buying-decisions if I buy games for older consoles (for collecting reasons) but for a new console and for so much cash? mmhh
Maybe it's just great to look at them standing side by side in a shelve (I have 50 GC games right now). I often caught myself looking at my shelves for half an hour.
what's happening with me?
:? *_* :duh:

I get into those "binges" too sometimes, though it's very very rare when I pay full price. I can wait a few months and pick up a game when it's gone discount. Even then, the number of $9.99 new games that I still haven't opened is kinda scary!

Need more free time!

Is the format of this thread only screwed up on my machine?

Can someone remove the double dashes before the arrow, please? :puppydogeyes:

I found out the hard way about the double dashes also!

Anyways, I'd have to say paying 30.00 for a game you don't want to play is a bit odd, I've been stocking up on the 5.00 games I don't want to play though. Don't even open them, just leave them on the shelf x_x

Much :D

30 Euros is more like $36.75

I've been going for the $5 titles so I can take them to EB or a Gamestop later (one who doesn't know I work for them) and getting the extra credit. :evil:

Ty isn't a bad game. I found it pretty enjoyable and some parts were pretty challenging. Sure, it's sometimes a collect the thingies quest, but overal, I think it's a great game. A little annoying on the Aussie slang, but pretty good.
