Heh, my Blu/DVD/CD collection is pretty insane too. You have a very valid point there.dunpeal2064 wrote:Having access to every game you may ever want to play is just spoiling yourself. next you'll want every movie you may ever want to watch, or every cd you may ever want to listen to.

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
A lot of my holding / collecting things correlates directly to my children.
I have a crap-ton of rpgs, strategy and adventure games that I have not played and will not play any time soon. For 2 reasons:
-I grew up on them and loved them and want my kids to play them when they are able to play rpg's.
-I'd like to play them someday too, once things calm down and I can actually game for hours strung together.
If I didn't have kids, i'd probably have a much smaller collection and more epic things - but it has to be balance for each person's current reality.

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
Man, I've always been the same way. I love having a library of movies, cds, games, what have you. I think, for me, its because I always wanted to have a large amont of consoles/games, so now that I can, in this nostalgic hobby, I act like I would have then and swim in my games.
But, I rarily have as much fun withh all these games now, then I did contantly as a kid with one console, and maybe 5 games.

If you can see the future while remembering the past, you may just have control of the present.

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
Some do. I personally am not willing to spend over $450 for a pcb, and I would only pay that for one game.
If you want to buy a new pcb, like the upcoming Dodonpachi SDOJ, it'll run a bit over $2000. Quite a few kits have held their value too, like Akai Katana.
I traded a board I bought for $110 for the one I just picked up, and I think I made out like a bandit!

Re: Random Thoughts Thread
Crows is a tough one.
Never up for auction, never on the forums.
I've seen more Psychic Killers than I have Crows - I don't think yr gonna steal it is what i'm saying, so prob just gonna have to bite the bullet on that one and do a buy now.
