Just saw your video.
Thumbs up for sure.

Just had a mini say on this earlier. Thankfully I'm not as OCD as you (no offense intended in every way bud) so I won't be selling off what I have, but yes I started wondering when I stopped being a "GAMER" and turned to a "COLLECTOR"

I remember when it was all about the games and not what came with them.

I completely support your decision, and wish you the best of luck. I actually really like your videos with takes on games, so I will keep watching for sure!

One too many..one too many things released for one single game now a days.

ALSO: You should really get Vanquish and play it. One of the greatest funnest games I have ever played.

Spoiler!

Good luck! That extra money and space will come in handy. Less buyer's remorse is also good.

Made a similar decision a few weeks ago. But I'll still be collecting a few bits on special occasions. Some collectibles are pretty close to art (ex: lithos, artbooks, statues, etc) and bring what we see in the game world to the real world. Some of them may also serve as reminders of what we love in our favorite games.

But yeah... I'm ignoring most, if not all, CEs. Kinda ironic since this community is dedicated to CEs. But a lot of them, these days, just aren't worth our time or money. Eventually I just forget about most of them.

I really hope more folks feel galvanized and follow your example. You've certainly helped me cause I feel I made the right choice. I feel free!

I've been thinking about this for a while now. I've put up a video fully exploring my thoughts on it, and I'm definitely set in my decision. Thanks for the advice, though, as it is a very big step!

It is very freeing. It's re-injected an enormous amount of fun back into collecting and gaming as a whole! And I am right there with you on some of the extra bits and bobs. I buy every artbook that's released for any game I have. I love them, and they are a brilliant extra way to explore the medium!

Oh I don't take any offense to that, and I freely admit and explain all the neurotic things that my OCD puts me through. Now of I was like those people that have 'rituals' or actually aren't in control of it, that would be another thing. I'm just overly fussy lol. I fully plan on getting Vanquish very soon! That and Danganronpa are going to be like rights of passage for me into my new direction, and it will be awesome!

I do have the Catherine US Love Is Over Edition. Someone has already laid dibs on it before I put a stop to that, though lol. They didn't specify the console, though, so perhaps they don't want it on 360. I shall definitely let you know if they back out o it.

Cheers!

Haha that's true. Just wanted to not have amy mis-communication.
Glad to hear It! I hope you have a blast refocusing your collecting.

And thanks just let me know.
Will look forward to your videos in the future.
