It's what inspired me to collect for games. Their is millions of different video games out there. On PC there is even free alterations of many PC games out there and it's almost infinite, downloading free mods and custom content for your game is not illegal and they can give you an excuse to play a game you love differently for example if you know where to look online you'll find some games have new level's more worlds new fan made content, more storylines and more |

What kind of shit is buying a 500GB console to only hold 12 freaking games in some cases, not to mention running up your internet bandwidth to download them |

I find it really difficult to answer this question as my attitude changes. I started a long time ago as a gamer and like most people didn't take care of much but as I grew older I appreciate everything that goes into producing a game.....especially with old games....the soundtrack, the box artwork, the manual. It's a piece of history - might be a crap piece of history but even still :) I have no goals but I like genres mainly RPGs, point and click, platformers and I just collect what I like. I have a mix on all platforms from 2600 through Amiga to PS2 being probably the latest iteration I will look at just now. |
