Wink Game journalist from Belgium collecting games, press materials and related stuff

Hello everybody,

I'm 37 years old from Belgium, a gamer since I was a 7 year old kid (I started off with Atari 2600, way back in the eighties).

The last 16 years I worked as a game journalist for specialized gaming magazines and newspaper. During those years I've kept almost everything (read: EVERYTHING) game companies have sent me.

Think complete games, special editions, promo copies, standard and debug consoles, stickers, posters, merchandising, T-shirts, figurines, preview discs and an awful lot of press kits. And so on.... and on... and on :-)

I've visited during all those years a lot of events like E3 and GamesCom, got invited into a lot of game studios. These are also interesting places to get some really cool stuff.

There are currently 1112 PlayStation titles in my collection: PSX, PS2, PS3, PSP and PSVita. But my collection is much bigger. From Atari 2600 to Nintendo Game Watch, from Sega to N-Gage. At this time most of my collection is put away in cardboard boxes since I have no space yet for a dedicated mancave :-)

But if you let me know what you really would like to see (or trade), feel free to ask. I'll see what I can post.

I thought I was the only crazy guy collecting all these press materials, but today a new world has opened for me. I'm not alone, thank God :-)

Since today I'm also active on the PlayStationCollecting-forum.

Today a lot of my stuff is in boxes after refurbishing my house. But I have really cool stuff. I will post some pics it a soon as possible.

Questions or requests? Don't hesitate.

Cheers

skoolboi aka FrogEy3
