My policy is one new game each month, and I share that game with one of my buddies, so 12*$30= $360. Round up to $400 after PS+.

Not that I have a budget, it's just that I don't have that much time to play more.
Remaining purchases:
Sept - FIFA 15
Oct - The Evil Within
Nov - Far Cry 4
Dec - Dragon Age


btw...I'm disapointed by ps+ this year.I don't like 80% of the games.Last year was fantastic however.

My sub expires Sept.23, and I'm not renewing it until they offer at least one game that's worth it.

I don't like driving games, so Driveclub doesn't interest me. If there is a decent game in November, I'll renew first week of December, if not, I'll wait.

I don't play online multiplayer, so I don't need Plus anyway.


I knew that when ps4 multiplayer would come into the game and make ps+ alla xbox live...which means not optional....I knew the service would suffer greatly.

I believe, from May and on....the free games kind of suck.(for me at least)

pes 2014,Nba 2K14,Crysis 3,PSAll-Stars,Dead Space 3.

Probably we'll have to wait until the free games on ps4 start becoming good.



I'd say I usually spend around 750$ per year on games. However, I only spent 340$ so far this year due to the lack of releases from Nintendo and on the Vita.



Predictions for LT console sales:

PS4: 120M

XB1: 70M

WiiU: 14M

3DS: 60M

Vita: 13M

If I had money, would probably spend a lot.



Minimum 50$ maximum 500$



Ltd predictions by the time 9th Gen comes out

Ps4:110million

Xbox one :75 million( was 65) 

Wii u: 20 milliion

In 2012 I speant over $2500 (no consoles) so I decided to never keep track again


At first I read "on consoles".....then I saw it was "no consoles"....SHIT !

Haha yeah, I would say it was similar last year too. This year I might hit $1500-2000 including my PS4. Now that Im out of school I have to spend my money on other shit too.



I spend at minimum $500, up to $1000 a year on gaming not counting systems that I might purchase. I used to support the industry by purchasing everything I was interested in day one, so I'd be spending a lot more. Now I'm super cheap, I still get a lot of games, but I don't throw money away like I used to. It's rare that I get a game day one, but it still happens.



About $500-$600 a year. This year its higher though cause I bought a Wii U and I'm also planning to get an X1.

This year I've spent more money on video games than ever before. I bought a Wii U+6 games for ~$400 (a great deal btw), and I also went back and bought some games from the last gen that I never got. That's ~$162 on old Wii and DS games. I also bought a ton of games on the Wii U/Wii and 3DS virtual consoles. Probably about $50. Finally, I bought some 3DS games like Pokémon X, Kirby: Triple Deluxe, and Azure Striker: Gunvolt this year. Total I'd say I spent around $700 this year (and that's without getting Hyrule Warriors, Bayo 2, Smash 3DS/Wii U, Pokémon AS, Captain Toad).



A lot but I don't really keep track
