Why did you guys start collecting games? I want to start collecting myself...

[AlliDfense]

I didnt even consider collecting videog ames till after finding this site.

I think back over the years to all the games ive either given back to gamestop in trade or sold for way under value cause i didnt know any better and I kick myself LOL. Ive prolly traded in 150 games over the last 6-8 years. Just recently I started to stop that as I found out one sometimes I want to go back to play the game and two gamestop/ebay is hard to get your full value unless its a wanted item,collectors edition or overall rareness.

So when I came here I started just collecting steelbooks I had 3 when I came here I th ink im up to about 11 now with some coming from trades on this site.

Now the one thing I did keep over the years evne if i traded teh game any collectors editions stuff I hung onto. I.E. Drake Statue, Art books etc.

I also then decided to buy a bunch of gears of war stuff and build my gears of war collection same with assassins creed.

Now that Ive done that though I find myself wanting to collect the actual games. ive been hitting up gamestops 1 a week now for about 3 weeks picking up as many 4-15 dollar xbox 360 games as possible spending about 60 a week to build my normal game collection back up.

I know when Gears of War Judgement comes out ill go back to collecting more gears stuff.

Anyhow Good luck this place is awesome.
