    Default If I could but I won't ... urgh!

    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?

    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?

    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

    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.

    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.
