I'm a collector, and I see other collectors pay a lot of money for a rare crappy game. You know as a collector you're not going to play it at all, maybe once or twice, and then you're going to put it away for good (unless you sell it). Why did you want to purchase it in the first place? For showing off, or because you want to spend a lot of your tax money on something dumb?
I don't get it with people who owned a copy of Cheetahmen II. The game sucks, period. The game has a very low production run, so what, if the game sucks, why pay for it? I believe that if you going to pay over $100 on a game, you better play it a lot. But for rare shitty game, they'll get purchased, played once or twice, and they get put away for good.
As a collector I will never buy a shitty game that cost a lot, NEVER! I still almost shit in my pants when people keep braging on how much they paid for a rare game that just sucks. I understand as a collector that you want to complete a system game set, but paying over $100 for a shitty game is just crossing over the line. Heck, with a $100 I can spend a lot of money on many great titles.
Why do collectors (like some of you people) pay a lot of money for shitty games that you don't even play a lot? What makes you want to shell out over $100 for games that are just pure trash?
