meh I like that logo. Plus from a collector standpoint, it's cooler to have it in legit condition. But hey, couldn't pass up a good trade haha.

I bought the AC3 CE and Far Cry 3 to flip, but otherwise kept the rest of the games I bought this month. I am hoping to sell a good chunk of stuff next month to hopefully bring down my total expenditure for the year as I'd like to stay under $1000 at the half way point if possible. Last month's $500+ blowout on CEs that I want to keep is hurting my bottom line :lol:

I also added a cost per game at the suggestion of prfsnl_gmr, so you stat hounds (anyone?) can have another one to chew on.

January: 84 (added) /56 (sold or traded away)
February: 74 (added) / 74 (sold or traded away)
March: 23 (added) / 2 (sold or traded away)
April: 22 (added) / 6 (sold or traded away)

Ok, turns out I have a lot more to add after all. First off, a friend of mine who's moving gave me a handful of nes games.

Second, I went to Boulder for work today, and since its impossible for me to go to Boulder without stopping in at Game Force, I picked up 4 Genesis games.

Then, I jumped on Racketboy this evening and discovered Opa Opa selling two Harvest Moon games I needed. Since I paid for them in April, on the April list they go.

Edit: I forgot to add Shenmue 2. Came in with the Jaguar and 3dO games from Hobie and Jmustang.

April:

Batman Returns - SNES
Batman Returns - Genesis
Galahad - Genesis
Rolling Thunder 2 - Genesis
Advanced Variable Geo - PC Engine
Brutal Sports Football - Jaguar
Dead or Alive 5 - Xbox 360
Hyperdimension Neptunia - PS3
Raiden - Jaguar
Wolfenstein 3d - Jaguar
Doom - Jaguar
Shenmue 2 - Dreamcast (PAL)
Gex - 3dO
Total Eclipse - 3dO
Defender of the Crown - Nes
Mega Man 5 - Nes
Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers - Nes
DuckTales - Nes
Narc - Nes
Metal Gear - Nes
Sonic 3D Blast - Genesis
Technoclash - Genesis
Fatal Rewind - Genesis
Buck Rogers: Countdown to Doomsday - Genesis
Harvest Moon GBC - GBC
Harvest Moon 2 GBC - GBC

The stats are great! I think that I am going to start including these in my "games acquired" posts too. (I know that most of my acquisitions this year have been for the 2600, but - since it is getting harder to find games that I need for my collection - it will be interesting to see the rate at which other parts of my collection are growing.)

My average price per game gets thrown off by the outliers. Like in April, I snagged some cheapo Atari and NES sports games, but I also picked up a boxed Dragon Warrior III.

Several of those I had had previously and a friend came over and freaked out that I had the title since thought the game was lost to time. And I either gave it to them or they bought it off of me. Time Lord, Blaster Master, Legendary Wings, and Lifeforce, all were that way.

Edit:
This is actually my third copy of Time Lord now that I think about it.
