Do you only spend a couple hundred a year and buy only the big name titles or do spend thousands buying all the games when they are released?

Last year I easily went over $1000 since I bought a Wii a PS3 and a number of games. The PS3 on release day in the Eu with two games added up to 720 Euro's which is around $1015. So there you have it. This year I think I might hit $1000 as well. Already bought a DS for 150E, and games totalling about 250E which is $350 and it's only february. My next purchase will be FFVII FFVIII and FFIX together for 80E or $112

last year a lot because i bought a console

most years not too much as I buy only a handful of games, usually end up returning gifted games for games I prefer, and refuse to be milked for online fees/repair fees

Easily over a 1000 in a non-console buying year.

About 1.5 games a month sound about right?

Probably not too much. I'd say it varies between $500 and $150 a year.

Often because I buy a lot of games every other year...

OVER $9000!

Your scale should go up more. On average I probably spend 2k including games, consoles, computer parts.

Click on my profile and look at my game collection lmao. I used to buy everything that was out there but I've kind of layed off of doing that due to me not beating 75% of the games and them not even being opened on my shelf. I was always more of the collector. I would say over the years it averages out to about $1000
