I have spent like well over $700 this year on gaming (that includes a Wii purchase, game purchases, game rental subscription, accessories, points cards and Xbox Live Gold subscription card).
From now on I don`t think I`ll be spending too much.
Hardware Purchases: I`m good for this year. I was flirting with the idea of picking up a PSP but PSP2 will probably be announced at E3 so I`m gonna skip out on that.
Game purchases: I don`t think I`ll be buying games much. The rental subscription + my current backlog are covering my gaming needs.
Game rentals: I paid for my subscription months in advance. So my subscription is all covered for the next 4 months worth of rentals. I don`t have to renew until then.
Accessories: I don`t want anymore at the moment. Maybe if NATAL comes out with something interesting this holiday.
Points: I`ll buy some more when I need them. Right now I don`t.
Xbox Live Gold: I`m a member until May 2011. Don`t have to worry about that now.
Gaming can be damn expensive when you buy so much at once. But overall, it`s actually a cheap form of entertainment if you think about how many hours of entertainment you get out of it. It`s cheaper than other forms of entertainment out there.
