So I bought 23 new console games



DS (8 games) :

Rune Factory: A Fantasy Harvest Moon (Jan, import), The World Ends With You (May), Etrian Odyssey (Jun), Izuna (Jun), Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney (Aug), Children of Mana (Aug, 10 euros), Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood (Sep), Harvest Moon: Island of Hapiness (Dec)

All finished, except Harvest Moon: IoH, that I'm currently playing.

Rune Factory, The World Ends With You (to my greatest surprise), Etrian Odyssey, Izuna, Apollo Justice and Harvest Moon: IoH (so far) excellent.

Children of Mana was very boring (but thankfully, I only payed it 10 euros), and Sonic Chronicles quite disappointing (should have saved the money for Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia or Professor Layton).

PC (1 game) :

Spore (Oct)

Spore didn't lived up to my expectation. A lot of potential, but the developpers have probably been too much ambitious. Maybe the extensions will improve that...

So 9 games bought in total (~360 euros). Finished 8. Not bad considering how much work I have had this year, and that video-game isn't my main leisure (I spend ~150-200 euros per month on mangas, anime, J-Music and derivated just to give an idea).

22 retail games total, sold 3 of them. 7 downloadable games bought. Any games on my profile that don't show up here (like all DS games) I just borrowed and played from friends/family.

Wow. Spent quite a lot for games this year (the hardware in particular, systems and controllers). Most of the games I buy aren't at full retail price (often far from it), I'm way too cheap for that...

edit: I don't know what the hell I was thinking. Forgot we had a PS3 for a long time now... but nobody really used it until CoD4 (bought 08). Also, I haven't finished a ton of these games - my priority ends up playing the games I borrow from others (they're often more desirable), since the games I own aren't going anywhere. Now I have a massive back catalogue of games, yet I still want new ones. I guess that's a good thing, better than bitching about no games being out...

If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints
