U.S, Massachusetts small collector

[ceaddiction1228]

Hey guys, I've been here for about a week and well I figured it was time. I have an EXTREMELY small collection compared to almost everyone on here, it's almost embarrassing but either way. I hope to make it grow over time, a LOT of time lol. My name is Josh and I'm 23. I live in Massachusetts, east coast of the US. I will provide good pictures at a later date just because there has been no place in my house to establish my collection yet. Here is a small list in the meantime of everything I DO have. It is all NTSC-U region.

-Tales of Xillia CE PS3
-Tomb Raider CE PS3
- Injustice Gods Among Us CE Xbox 360
- Borderlands 2 CE Xbox 360
- Bravely Default CE 3DS
- COD Black Ops Hardened Edition Steelbook
- Kingdom Hearts 1.5 Remix LE
- Final Fantasy X/X-2 CE PS3
- Final Fantasy X/X-2 LE PS3
- Tales of Symphonia CE PS3
- Dark Souls II Black Armor Edition Xbox 360
- Final Fantasy Lightning Returns CE Xbox 360
- Dragonsaga SEA Collectors Edition PC
- Aliens: Colonial Marines CE Xbox 360
- Final Fantasy XII CE PS2


Tomb Raider Strategy Guide
Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch Strategy Guide
Kingdom Hearts 1.5 Remix Strategy Guide (Sealed)
Lightning Returns CE Strategy Guide
Dark Souls II CE Strategy Guide

Artbook:

The Sky: Final Fantasy Artwork

Miscellaneous:

Frozen CE
Hunger Games 1 + 2 Steelbooks
Sound of Music CE
Final Fantasy Tactics PS1

On Preorder:

Watch Dogs CE PS3
Titanfall (standard) Xbox 360

The only merchandise I have that didnt come with the game like a CE or LE is a Metal Gear Revengeance T-shirt (I would like to grab the CE for it), and a COD Ghosts Beanie.

Hope to be adding more eventually, house and bills come first so I do what I can. I love collecting FF stuff I just haven't had much chance to, and I am dying to get my hands on the Fallout 3 and New Vegas CE's i just don't have the money at the moment. Will keep updated when new arrivals are here and soon with pics.

All of us started with a small collection. Welcome to the forum mate,
enjoy your stay here, and surely you will find ways to expand you collection.

[Dan]

welcome to the forum dude, you have a great collection!

It might be small but we all have to start somewhere. :)

[ceaddiction1228]

Thanks dan I think thats what makes me so excited and yet anxious at the same time. I like to collect all kinds of stuff so its going to make it more difficult for me to know how far to go. . And if I go as far as my wallet takes me I might as well quit now lmao . Def excited to learn from you guys

lol :bananayes:

you'll see a trend certain of us only collecting certain games only (Assassin's creed, Mass effect, Uncharted etc.) and you'll see some of us who only collect truly rare stuff like press kits/media kits and other rare items and some who just collect everything in between :)

it really depends on what you like, it's just nice to see more and more people join the forum.

[ceaddiction1228]

It sucks to say but my collecting will be moved to a snails pace . My wife and I just kindly bought a puppy so that is where our money will be going I have no regrets but I will still collect whenever I can. I'm still hoping to pick up a collector's edition Final Fantasy 13 lightning returns guide and the watchdogs collectors edition

I think we've all been there mate, no worries. Glad to hear someone doing the responsible thing! I'm also going to have to be cutting way back soon as my ability to get easy GS credit, and our soon-to-be addition to the family will definitely hinder the budget for CEs ;)

What kind of puppy are you getting?

[ceaddiction1228]

Yea another year and we will try for a baby. . .but she is a lab/boxer/shepard mix. . She is 6 weeks old. . We must wait until she is 10 weeks before she can travel

Happy to say that I got to secure my Watch Dogs CE for Ps3 today, along with my FF 13 Lightning returns CE strategy guide and a regular copy of LR for the 360.

[ceaddiction1228]

Ok guys I'm asking for your help on this, I currently have $90 to spend on something I want related to video games. There are plenty of CE's I want but not sure which ones to get. I need some assistance big time, suggestions? I am updating my first post now to show current pre-orders.

[ceaddiction1228]

So ive narrowed it down some; the sky: the art of final fantasy, drakengard 3 ce, the witch and the hundred knight ce.

[ceaddiction1228]

Edit: just picked up the aliens colonial marines CE for $15 shipped. Glad someone posted on here.

So ive received my regular 360 version of lightning returns, ce guide for lr, bravely default ce, and my aliens ce. Started playing lr but probably going to start over since my puppy hindered me from using my guide without putting it in danger and I want to 100% the game on hard so ill need it. Aliens will get unwrapped. Bravely default is staying sealed.

Congrats on your pick-ups. Yours is the complete opposite of those that I got though - My aliens is sealed cuz I probably won't ever play it (got it for ~$20 I think a ways back). LR is currently sealed cuz I still gotta play through 100% the first 2 and didn't really care for the demo and I'm playing the HECK outta Bravely Default cuz its amazing game so sadly won't be keeping my CE sealed (way to go on getting one though, apparently they're really desired in the US)

[ceaddiction1228]

I dont have a 3ds which is why itll stay sealed but being a ff fan I had to get it. So until I get one its going to stay sealed. . And I want to display the powerloader figure, thats the only reason im opening aliens.

Very nice pick up on Aliens I spent $20 and was a little disappointed in the game however.

[ceaddiction1228]

Ok so I have quite a few pickups recently that I havent added. Need to add pictures and update first post but I picked up dark souls 2 (black armor) for xbox360 with the CE guide. Got my dragonsaga SEA limited edition, CE for ff lightning returns and FF X/x-2. Got my limited edition X/X-2 with guide book. Should be getting my South Park CE within the next week or two for PS3. If I think of anything else obviously ill update this thread

Yup, love my FFT. That and my Suikoden II are simply two of my absolute favorite games of all time! There's really very few games I've ever enjoyed as much as those. (I'd have to reach to the SNES games to find one)

That was nice of them to hook you up though. :thumb:

[ceaddiction1228]

:thumb:

Yes no greatest hits platinum hits crap a complete FFT . . .brings joy to my heart lol. This is the first bit of luck ive had with collecting I think EVER. Will have pictures of everything this weekend for sure.
