I buy waaaaaay too many, and I should really slow down to focus on my backlog. I think I typically get 20 a year, if not more.



I am the Playstation Avenger.

   

Around the Network

Including indie bundles, GOG classics, iOS games and PS+ games I already got over 200 games this year. :-*

But leaving out all the stuff under 5 €, the list is less crazy:

  • PS4 = Killzone: Shadow Fall, InFamous: Second Son, MGS V: Ground Zeroes, Entwined... and my DriveClub preorder
  • Wii U = DKC: Tropical Freeze, Mario Kart 8, NSMB U, New Super Luigi U, Nintendo Land, Pikmin 3, Super Mario 3D World, Wind Waker HD, Zombi U
  • PS3 = Persona 4 Arena
  • Vita = Atelier Totori Plus, Final Fantasy X HD, Final Fantasy X-2 HD, Lemmings Touch, SteamWorld Dig, TxK
  • 3DS = Professor Layton 6: The Azran Legacy, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright, A Link Between World
  • iPad = 999: The Novel HD, Final Fantasy 4, Lost Treasures of Infocom, realMyst: Masterpiece Edition
  • Steam/GOG: Batman Origins, Ether One, Final Fantasy 8, LEGO Marvel Superheroes, Saints Row 4, Scribblenauts Unmasked, The Stanley Parable
  • kickstarted in 2014: Dead Synchronicity, Exogenesis, The Book of Unwritten Tales 2
  • older Kickstarters released in 2014: Broken Age, Broken Sword 5, Detective Grimoire, Moebius, République, Tex Murphy: Tesla Effect

For the rest of the year, I will probably get these:

  • PC = GTA V, Watch Dogs, Assassin's Creed 4, Dead Rising 3, Gabriel Knight: 20th Anniversary Edition
  • PS4 =  The Last of Us Remastered, DriveClub, Transistor
  • Wii U = Bayonetta 2
  • Vita = Danganronpa 1 + 2, Child of Light, Jacob Jones: Episode 2, Abe's Odyssey: New 'n' Tasty, Sly Collection, Ratchet & Clank Trilogy
  • 3DS = Bravely Default
  • iPad = The Walking Dead: Season 2, Secret Files: Tunguska, all 5 Blackwell games

 



I only buy the really good games for retail price.
The rest are just Humble Bundles and other game bundles and ofcourse during the Steam summer and winter sale.



usually 2 main ones and a few digital and cheap titles. so far 1 of them this year but last year 3.

oh....and ANYTHING free.



I'd say I purchase roughly 15 full priced games per year. Some years a bit more, others a bit less. Like this year, so far, has been a very slow year.



Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M

Around the Network

Wii U:
Watch Dog
Bayonetta 2
Call of Duty AW
Project Cars
Smash Bros

X360:
Far Cry 4
Forza Horizon 2
Destiny

...Not much games, because next year i buy PS4, and i need to money.



I average about 2+ games per month with at least one retail and one arcade game with an occasional WP or Win 8 game thrown in. I have been playing more free games lately (Xbox Games with Gold offers) and buying discounted games for Xbox360 (sales range 50-75% off). I really hate paying full price for retail games, so I have hesitated buying games for the Xbox One console.



Last year i went bit intense with purchases but i also beat a lot of games too. Less time to play this year, so got to be more selective. This year am at 5 retail and 5 digital purchases.

Going to pick up Wii Sports Club & Super Smash U at retail. Probably one or two digital games too. Let's say 14-15 games this year.
