I might have one laying around. I never stand my PS2 up anymore, cause of fear of disc read errors/ scratches. I can look this weekend prolly.

I really appreciate it.  The boyfriend's brother needs one as he has limited space for his consoles and has to stand his up on its side.

Would anyone happen to have a spare stand for the original/fat PS2?  I come across stands for the slim all the time, but I can't seem to find many for the original model and at a reasonable price to boot.  Send me a PM if you have one you're willing to part with.

Cheers.

Of course it's up to me what I want to list and what I don't.  I just drive myself crazy sometimes with such things.  I like to bounce things back and forth before ultimately deciding what to do.

Going back to listing PC games:  Another reason I'm having a difficult time deciding whether to list my physical PC games is that neither of my computers will run most of the games I own anymore (thank you Vista and XP).  So with them being essentially unplayable and in a binder (read: coasters), I don't see an overwhelming need to continue to include them in my numbers.  Like I said, they're nothing particularly special anyway.

However, I feel a bit hypocritical about this as I include XBLA titles...   

Also, to make clear, I don't have any swag or "game-related" items in my numbers - aside from strategy guides, and even then I'm considering taking them out as well.  I have a bunch of swag and soundtracks myself, but can't bring myself to list them as they're not games.

Decisions, decisions...

My 360 plays advertisements.

Ain't that the truth.

Is there anyone that doesn't list their physical PC games in with their collection stats?  Only simply because they're not console/handheld games?  I've been struggling with this lately and wondering whether or not to include them in my numbers.  Not to mention, they're nothing special anyway.

I had Project X Zone pre-ordered, but after playing the demo I wasn't willing to pay full price for it. So I canceled my pre-order on it. I might pick it up later, since it has .hack characters in it.

Hmmm.  Maybe things happen for a reason...?   

From the gameplay footage I saw, I thought launch bundle price was worth it.  Perhaps I'll have to see about that demo...

Only have SMT IV pre-ordered at the moment.  The boyfriend had Project X Zone pre-ordered, but he lost his job about two weeks ago and won't be able to pick it up.  I offered to pay off the rest, but he was being a butthead that day so I retracted my offer. 

I may end up going ahead and getting it anyway.

I've also been in the process of re-organizing and re-arranging my game room.  I don't think I'll ever be perfectly happy with it though.  LOL

I'll have to post some pics when I'm done(ish) as I haven't done so since I joined VGC.

Bought several games from stagecoachkid again: another great experience.  If all the sellers in cyberspace - and IRL for that matter - were as reasonable, thoughtful and genuinely nice as stagecoachkid, the collecting world would be a much happier place.

Yup, stagecoachkid is a super nice guy. 

Shame you have to sell your collection.
