General / Re: What percentage are you a collector vs a gamer?
« on: December 13, 2021, 07:45:24 pm »
Probably 50/50 these days. Still collecting a ton but have made a concerted effort to play more games this year. Up to nearly 30 beaten on the year. I'm mostly at this point trying to complete console sets and boxes for nintendo cartridge systems so that's more collecting focused than gaming focused. I'm not currently tracking down Contra Legacy of War on Saturn because i want to play it (i have it on ps1) but because it's the last game outside of daytona netlink that i need to complete the NA set.
With a young baby at home, harder to sneak away to my retro gameroom to play for large chunks of time. Hoping as he gets older, I will be able to play more.

General / Re: Game Awards predictions?
« on: December 12, 2021, 02:45:52 am »
Glad that It Takes Two won- truly a fantastic game. I would have been really bummed if Deathloop won- game did not deserve all the accolades it got. It wasn't bad but way too flawed to be GOTY. Was glad Returnal won best action game, I think it deserved to be nominated for GOTY, it's definitely my GOTY.
Show was fine, if I had been actively watching and not doing anything else I would have been bored. But perfect background noise while working.

I liked the first game, loved the second game, thought the third game sucked. Didn't bother with Andromeda- once the legendary edition comes to game pass, maybe I'll give 3 another try.

Video Game Deals, Sales and Promotions / Re: Trading Mario party 2 and 3 cib for sealed warioware inc mega mini games gba
« on: October 28, 2021, 03:38:54 am »
I think it depends on how much you value sealed games. Both Mario Party games cib combined are probably worth around 350-400 depending on condition. Warioware complete goes for about 150+ 150 cash= meaning if the game being sealed is worth at least 100 more dollars to you than it's probably worth it.
Sealed collecting has not really caught on in the handheld market except for a few select games. Might be a good piece to hold onto if it ever does if you care about sealed. Personally I only collect CIB so a sealed game doesn't do much good to me unless I want to sell it.

Modern Video Games / Re: IMO...the PS5 is a POS
« on: October 04, 2021, 06:24:40 pm »
I have used my PS5 quite a bit this year and have had little to no issues. I have had a couple of crashes (mostly Cyberpunk, which I don't think was the fault of the PS5) and I had that weird downloading issue where in the middle of installing a game/downloading a patch it would just stop and I'd have to uninstall and try again but this has not happened to me in months.
I just played through Ratchet and really enjoyed it, and now I'm playing through Returnal and Lost Judgment. I have had zero issues and really enjoyed my experience with the console so far. I think COVID and tech shortages have caused significant game development delays and while I am disappointed that more is not coming out this year, I have so many other games to play and am not concerned.
There is noticeable room for improvement for the PS5 interface and other features. I also seem to recall the PS4 being rather basic the first few years- I think in the next few years, the PS5 will really develop into something special.

Classic Video Games / Re: Do you have a favorite Box art?
« on: August 24, 2021, 12:42:09 am »
I love 3DO box art- so large and expressive. Just really nothing like it- Virtuoso, Drug Wars, Space Pirates- the campier the better. In terms of the most artistic- I think NES/TG 16 usually had the best art.
Kinda went downhill after gen 5/6
