^^ that... I also buy from the UK at zavvi, theHut etc... But sometimes there is just a game that doesn't get released or like 6 months later in the EU and then I import them from the US like Tales of Graces F PS3 or a lot of DS games

Okay. What about the deliveries? Have they always been reliable (both from the US and UK)?

Well that's actually why I asked the question.. I kinda would like a solid big company.. not a tiny website from someones basement... because of the deliviries. UK deliveries are solid,mostly a week untill it arrives.. Zavvi and theHut are the 2 I used the most from the UK..  also the PlayAsia delivery are solid.. PlanetAxel was pretty good, but sometimes the package got stuck at the border securties and you could wait for it a few weeks extra.. but it would always arrive..

Yeah, it needs to be reliable. I buy around half of my games through mail order but almost only from Sweden because international mail orders make me nervous. I've ordered games 3 or 4 times from the UK without any issues but still I fear that day when the package doesn't arrive.

I love the feeling when you open a mail package and see brand new games.

it's a small part of it.. I'm missing a lot of games which I haven't added... I know that i have around 150 ps1, 50 DC, 80 PS2  games but I just stopped adding them.. I also am missing a lot of the newer games.. I just stopped adding cause it took too much time..

From what I remember you're a Steam guy but what about current gen consoles, around how many games do you own for the Wii and PS3?

Amazon.co.uk? I always buy my game from there.

I think around 60 PS3 games, 25 360 games, and around 50 Wii games.. My 360 is broken, the Wii had a few games the last year so only my PS3 collection is growing..

Not much, actually.. don't really have the time to play a lot of games.. a lot of my PS3 games are still shrink wrapped... -_-"
I think my trophy level is  8 or 9... cause I don't have much to play games most of the time I just play them through not caring about the trophies.. which ends me up with mostly bronze ones..
