I don't collect games like some people do. I focus my collection on only a couple franchises (Bioshock being my big one) and Xbox hardware. I've bounced around between different types of video game collecting over the years, but I am pretty happy to have a big focus on Bioshock and Xbox hardware. They just feel right.

My suggestion is to figure out what interests you the most with video games and start collecting there (whether it be a specific franchise, hardware, all games on a specific platform, etc.).

If it's about MGS then i think i played most important ones - mgs1, mgs2, mgs3 snake eater and mgs4 - now looking forward GZ.

Im kind of ashmed of my problem. I do know people have more important matters in life and i sound like these ''1st world problems'' meme now.

It's not even matter of collecting franchise or something. It's more about having good collection of games i won't be ashmed when im older (im 24 now anyway).

For now i put on sell most of my games i don't really like or won't ever replay them. Keep the important ones. I'll also try to upgreade my games to better editions because i have only standard ones. First buy is steelbook edition of Dragon Age Origins (cus i love steelbooks). Next i'll try buying Mass effect CE (even if i think theyre pretty empty but steelbooks still....).

I don't know if it's right thing to do. From like 50 games i'll end up with like 10 now but maybe it's better this way?

Im interested with something else. I know many people focus on some franchise but what about other games? For example: if you collect everything about MGS then what you do with other games? I think you still play other games but what? Resell them after play or keep them all on shelf?
Im more interested about collecting games itself than collector editions of games.

I always though buying game, playing and reselling it was kind of ass move but now i wonder? If i buy game i want to keep it but in time im losing cool and think ''why bother? I wont ever play it again''

Best idea, not ass move. Sell already played games now while still worth something, buy again later when cheaper if you really want to replay.

Then i just can become ''sunday'' gamer and start playin angry birds perhaps? Im scared of that...

50 games or 10 what's the difference if you're replaying 0 of them? What you're worried about in general is playing games less often so what you need to realize is out with the old, in with the new. Something like GameFly would really streamline that process for you if they have anything like that in Poland.
