EDIT - Here's the latest pic of the collection, loads of stuff obscured behind the Peace walker HD, Risk and Peace walker DX pack boxes on top of the cabinets. Loads of stuff in the storage boxes as well, mostly MGS but some Mass Effect and Tomb Raider stuff to. I need some more cabinets badly.

Look...your collection is A M A Z I N G Gazereth. Absolutely incredible. Extremely well displayed. REALLY REALLY nice my friend. I am WAY over impressed here...
In fact, I'd go so far as to say your display and setup is so perfect, it inspires me. You actually inspire me to be a better collector. How about that huh?!

Hehe thanks foreverflash, in the next few months I expect it to grow in terms of the display if not in terms of the actual collection (But one BIG thing is sure to be added soon

) I'm going to get another 2 cabinets and totally redesign my room as well as frame and hang about 6-8 new posters that I have in tubes.

I'd love to see some pics of your collection, I followed the link in your sig/thread but got a 'page not found' error from photobucket. I hope you have a mirror or another thread with them posted.

I'm sorry bud, I had reorganized all my albums on photobucket, forgot to edit the link in my Sig. Here is the new link:

Nothing as "refined" and sophisticated as your MGS collection and displays...

You have an awesome collection of different LE/CE's (watching a slide show now) I never knew there was an ICO collectors edition box, that must be a Japanese release right? I always regret selling my copy with the slipcase and art cards.

Hey thanks! I'm kind of an "all around" collector but I'm very picky about what platform for what series etc. and I impose all kinds of "rules" on my habit LOL (like they work... *roll eyes) Yes the ICO HD remake box set was Japan and it is GORGEOUS. One of my most prized editions. Japan always knows how to do it best. I was also able to snag a "like new" copy of the original Limited edition ICO for PS2 w/ art cards (and same for Shadow of Colossus). Both are really nice editions. So pretty much I have a complete ICO collection I'm very proud of. It's REALLY hard to find the first ICO LE sealed. I searched a long time, best I found was "like new". SoTC LE is more common.

I have a LOT more pictures to add my friend. Been lazy in updating. I have some INCREDIBLE new collectibles...

You're right, the Japanese stuff is almost always best! The ICO with art cards, was that a PAL exclusive or did the NTSC regions have it as well?...obviously mine (which I foolishly sold to fund my MGS obsession) was a PAL version.

Looking forward to the new pics......Damn I love seeing pics of collections, especially video game stuff

ICO and SoTC LE w/ art cards was PAL exclusive. Not so foolish to sell ICO for MGS. MGS is a very strong, desirable series' to collect for that would make anyone very proud. Though, ICO is hailed as being the greatest game of all time, even beating the likes of Mario and Sonic...

Ha I think everyone here loves to see collection pictures. It's what drives us! PS I love your Sig...

Greatest game of all time? Nah...MGS1 or Mass effect for greatest game IMO

Can't wait for Mass Effect 3, got my PS3 and 360 N7 editions pre ordered. PC will be cheaper after a few months but I'll get that as well............oh also a Canadian exclusive steelbook and the hardback guide.

Damn my credit card is gonna take a hit in March LOL

Why do people like yourself buy a game for all 3 platforms? I've never understood. I know quite a few people who do this. When I buy a game I choose a platform and thats it! lol
