My mate was working out how much he had spent on instruments, etc. over the years, and his total came to £8,660 - but his justification was that I probably spent as much on games, I doubted that so I went about totalling up. I got bored after doing my PS3, and It'd be nigh on impossible for me to do older consoles and stuff as there was loads of gifts, and I wasn't aware of prices, etc.

Anywho, my totalling for my PS3:

Hardware
PS3 + HDMI + Resistance + Casino Royale = £460
PS3 + Killzone + Fifa 09 = £350
2 Dualshock 3s = £20 * 2 = £40
2 Sixaxis = £25 * 2 = £50
HDMI = £10
Singstar Microphones - £50

= £960

Retail
Assassin's Creed - £40
Burnout Paradise - £25
CoD4 - £45
WaW - £35
GT5:P - £20
inFamous - £27
LittleBigPlanet - £30
Metal Gear Solid 4 - £45
Mirror's Edge - £20
Prince of Persia - £20
Ratchet and Clank - £35
Abba - £7
Vol 2 - £12
Street Fighter 4 - £25
The Simpsons Game - £35
Vegas 2 - £20
Uncharted 2 - £42
Uncharted - £45

So, not a fraction of my mate's music costs, but still a considerable figure. I'm guessing if I included things like TVs, other consoles, my computers + upgrades, etc - the number will definitely get much closer.

Just wondering what other people's totals are like - I know there are some big-arses collectors here (not saying that collectors have big arses - though, there probably is a correlation), and I was interested in knowing how much your hobby has gutted from your wallet.

Anyways, Sony found a great customer in me.
