I would like to know if your game purchases from last gen increased or decreased? Here's my breakdown for example:

Xbox=88 games, Xbox 360=402 games: INCREASED of 356%

GameCube=56 games, Wii=48 games: DECREASED of 14%

PS2=302 games, PS3=41 games: DECREASED of 86%

Dreamcast=32 games, NO SEGA Console :( DECREASED of 100%

Last gen total=474 games

This gen total=491 games

So I purchase more games this gen then last gen.


You may have a video game addiction.

Where do you find the time to play all those games?

I only buy 3-5 new games per year plus older used games, probably an average of 1-2 a month combined. I barely have the time play them and have a backlog that makes be feel guilty when I buy and play a game with so many waiting on the shelf. I wish I had more time to play games.

I do have a addition but not vidoe games. My true love is my Comic Books collection. Games take a back seat behind Comics and Football (American).

But my Backlog is pretty bad. I'm working threw some PS2 and GameCube games right now.



I'm too lazy to figure in the games that I sold, but just based on my existing collections it's about the same with this gen slightly ahead. The things is, last gen I only owned the Gamecube whereas this gen I have both the Wii and the PS3, so I had more for a single console last gen.

Now if you consider the Virtual Console, then I had vastly more this gen.

And regarding handhelds I have a few more GBA games than DS games.



This gen because i was old enough to game on this entire gen.



Currently own:

 

  • Ps4

 

Currently playing: Witcher 3, Walking Dead S1/2, GTA5, Dying Light, Tomb Raider Remaster, MGS Ground Zeros

I have 349 games just on 360 alone (plus played a few on my other profile that i was dubious about)

Now have 30 ps3 games.

DS..... around 40 games.

psp 13 games.

vs

SEGA Dreamcast 74 games

Xbox 53 games

Gamecube 29 games

Gameboy Advance 75 (says 22 in my profile but was still updating it before games collecton was dropped here)

Final score...... (and obvoiusly theres still a lot more to add this gen before it finishes)

This gen 444

Last gen 256

Holy crap, I thought I had too many games. Honestly, I haven't even had time to play 70% of my games, but I only have like a 10th of the amount of games some of you have.

I don't see how you guys can do it. Unless you are just living off of some kind of inheritance and just play video games 24/7



For last gen, I had 14 Wii games and 5 PS3 games for the entire gen. This gen, I have 9 Wii U games, 9 3DS games and 6 PSV games so far.

Last gen was kinda a timeout for me regarding console gaming, it was the WoW generation for me. I didn't buy games for years at all. I bought a Wii and Zelda at launch but most of my last gen games were bought in 2012 along with the PS3.



Ongoing bet with think-man: He wins if MH4 releases in any shape or form on PSV in 2013, I win if it doesn't.

My collection from this gen would destroy mine from last gen, mostly based on the fact that last gen started when I was a poor ass high school kid that couldn't get a then-current console until late 2003 and couldn't afford many games throughout college, whereas I got into this gen a couple of months after the Wii's launch, and have been able to spend more money on gaming now that school isn't sucking it away. I'll tally up the numbers tomorrow in an edit.



@ gergroy.

working for 18 months in an partially furnished mansion whilst the owner waited for a buyer helped a lot (and playing 360 for up to 7 hours a night whilst working in that place)

also my best buddy happens to love videogames too (so that has helped with the games tally)

Lastly, i play my 3DS/DS/GBA etc on the train to work, or during breaks at work. (hell, whilst working if theres a quiet moment or two )
