Hi everyone, names Ahmet aka (Retro_bot)
1st of all id like to say im happy to be apart of this great site ive been following it for ages now and decided to let my games out of the closet (literally) thats were i used to store them but recently move to a new house with misses and i now have my own gameroom.. I collect every ce/lm/se game thats released in australia and some other exclusive that are for certain regions only..i only buy sealed or mint games and keep them that way! My motto" id rather not have it then have it in bad condition" even thoe it gets expensive/frustrating from time to time that way,im lucky i have wife thats understanding in a way :) My main platform choice is ps3 but obviosly i have xbox360 ce as well, ive been collecting for 3yrs now but been a gamer my whole life,other hobbies are Marvel select figures iv got a whole bunch 36 to be exact and still growing!! All in mint and sealed condition aswell.. Il be uploading pictures soon just got to tidy up a little, want to make a great 1st impression :) looking forward to chating with everyone!!

Welcome man - I also collect sealed video games so am with you on that front. Although my platform of choice is the PC I have them all in my games room and have got museum grade UV screening protection to prevent my games from being damaged ;-)

i'm EXACTLY like you man!....i also collect sealed collectors editions from around the world..majority PS3...and ONLY want it if it's in MINT condition...i go bonkers LOL. :D if there's even a small dent or ding on the package..well realistically i do have a very tiny tolerance for defects etc..but just like you..if it's not as MINT as possible..i rather NOT have it..then to have to settle...would love to see your collection as soon as you can share pics..thanks for joining..can't wait to see what you have collected thus far.

dont u0pload to this site
upload to other sites
ass long as you can get the .jpg link then you can use it here
i upload all mine to my google acount and use the image links from there
others use photobucket, imgur, the list is endless
picasa web works for me as it means i can upload straight from camera to web no mess

edit
damn letrico beat me too it

Welcome to the forum dude, I have the same philosophy as you......No bad condition stuff is worth collecting.

Epic collection mate, love the way you display it.

He actually a real Australian labelled version, not the UK one...safer way to go ;) Plus it was cheap enough, only $100...that's a cheap CE for us here :lmao:

And JB Hifi who sold it cheaper than EB :beer:
