Post by: Carpimp1987 on May 21, 2008, 01:28:19 AM
Went to gamestop at our mall here i made the guy quess how many games i had then when i told him 166 XBOX360 games he said thats more than our used section and he counted all the used games and it came out to 142 or 144 not 100% sure what he said so its not that i will try to stop buying them i basically own them all so i have to stop Well untill GRID and Ninja Gadien 2 come out.
So i will try and save some money up for heads what should i buy between $1000-1400 right now i am thinking AFR 185s or maybe some PRO 5.0 Heads.

I cant even think of that many games worth playing on 360. I probably couldnt even name 30. How do you even play them all? I have like 6 or 7 games for my PS3 and they're all extremely good and I often have problems choosing which to play.

Buy 2 get one Free is why i sometimes get the games that did not get a high rating and also Gamerscore also i have some many games i wait for the not so good games to go down to $20 or less before i buy them. Also note thats just 360 games and i got like 40 for Nintendo Wii also and i am not even gonna list all my other systems.
Oh well i found a cheap intake set-up for my new 88 T-Bird.
Also to go with a Steeda cam and some rebulit GT40 heads the car has some power so for a DD i really don't need a ton more i just want a kind of upgraded set-up Don't want to spend to much money so i can buy me a 3rd car maybe soon either a Crown Vic or a MARK 8 LSC.

I have 5 games for my ps3, but only play warhawk and cod4. I have the same problem I only have time to play 3-4 hours/week or less.
I'm going to buy MGS4 next and was thinking of buying GTA4 but really don't have the time to play it. I also wanted to get Littlebigplanet when it comes out (wife might like that too).

:wtf:
166 x $60 (I'm basing this on PS3 games, which range from $40-80) = $9960
I'd sell the worst half at $10-20 a piece (there's no way you can keep up with 83 of your best games, let alone the 83 worst), and you've got a couple more grand recovered that you can spend on your car.

LOL, I remember cutting class and playing Gennesis over my buddys house, many years ago..
Oh and $10,000 on games is freaking nuts. You can't even play all of those games. I wouldn't be surprised if some have the wrapper still

Where do you work?
I need a job there, if you can afford to blow almost 10Gs on video games
Title: Today i finally think i got to many video games
Post by: Carpimp1987 on May 21, 2008, 12:49:14 PM
it was not 10Gs but i don't wanna add it all up right now well it is but thats since i was 6months old i have been playing Nintendo.
i got everything basically except for a PS2 and PS3 and a few older oddball systems.
GTA4 is the best of them all the car are like midnight club 3 and the game plays a lot better than the old ones and the cops don't you hunt you down for everything unless they see you do it most of the time.
Title: Today i finally think i got to many video games
Post by: Blackout on May 21, 2008, 05:56:38 PM
Uhhh.... the 10 Gs was based I though on your X-box 360 assortment.
Still..... I would have spent that on car parts, not games. Thats just me.

Hmmm... didnt you say you have 166 xbox 360 games?? That was in your first post. Thats where we got the 10 G estimate. Now you are saying that you have 166 total games....since the days of nintendo? That sounds a bit more reasonable.
Title: Today i finally think i got to many video games
Post by: cougrrr302 on May 21, 2008, 06:57:38 PM
So where exactly do you work to be spending this kind of money?
Title: Today i finally think i got to many video games
Post by: Carpimp1987 on May 22, 2008, 12:38:00 AM
Nope heres a break down simple list number errors less than 5 off without a full game count right now. Also this does not mean if i got a sonic mega collection plus with 20 games on it i only counted that as 1 Game. Also i don't trade in most games and most of the ones i traded over the years i bought back later for like $5 or less. So in a lifetime i could not even think of how many i have owned or played.
XBOX360 166 games
Xbox Live Arcade about 90 games
Downloaded games for Wii 30 games
OLD xbox 75games
Gamecube 40 games
N64 40 games
dreamcast 95 games
DS 40 games
Nintendo Wii 40 games
PSP 20 games
NES 50 games
Super Nes 25 games
sega gensis 2 games
GBA 10 games
Gameboy 2 games
PS1 2 games
Sega CD 1 game
SEGA 32X 1 game
Now thats not even getting into CDs or DVDs or HD DVDs or Hot Wheels.

or Hot Wheels.
ono you di~int juss bring up Hot Wheels. :mullet::mullet: :mullet: Who else on here collects hot wheels?
And nice collection! My game collection is pretty small and mostly NES and PS2, But i've accumulated most of the systems (PS1,PS2,PSP,NES,SNES,N64,Gameboys,Genesis,Sega CD,Sega 32X,Dreamcast,Game Gear + a fried Xbox and half working Gamecube lol)
Title: Today i finally think i got to many video games
Post by: Blackout on May 22, 2008, 11:39:23 AM
So based on your X BOX 360 GAMES,
You have spent close to 10 Grand...based on the calculations on page 1
I'm sorry man, I have to call BS here.
Title: Today i finally think i got to many video games
Post by: Blackout on May 22, 2008, 11:42:57 AM
However, I do like the xbox 360. I just don't have time to play anymore. If I'm not at work, working on my cars, or with the kids, I'm asleep. LOL

Not really a point, I guess.
But then, what is the point in calling out BS over anything?
Integrity test??? I can see calling BS on anything for that. Like race placements and such;)
Everyone seems so interested in everybody's integrity lately that i just thought I'd do my part.
And Carpimp. If you did spent almost 10Gs on video games....
Seriously....I need an application. :bowdown:

Cool, I've been collecting for awhile now, I'm not a super hardcore or anything (took me like 5 years to find a Treasure Hunt, lol), But i just enjoy collecting 'em.
and is that a neon lighting undercar kit i spot?

Post by: Carpimp1987 on May 23, 2008, 09:35:39 PM
I work at sonic drive-in and i normally get like 15 to 25 hours of overtime per week also the only day i called in sick in almost 3 years was the day after my 87 T-Bird got wrecked. So all i can say is i work form like 11 or 12 in the after noon to 12pm or 1am in the mouring so much that i only get to spend money on my day off so i just go on a shopping spree.
Most hours i ever had on 1 check was 153 hours and like 67 or 68 of them where overtime worked 19.1 hours in 1 day well really i worked till 1:45am the day before so it was really more like 20.5 hours in 1 day i got there 30mins early so i did not get to clock in for awhile and no days off for 2 weeks was lots of fun and somehow i still was able to watch a few movies and play some video games in that time. The cool part of this story is in 1 check i got a Vortech S-Trim kit at the time i only made $7 a hour check was almost $1400 before taxes.

That just brought back some warm memories. My brother and cousin would play cool spot for hours.

Post by: Carpimp1987 on May 24, 2008, 12:55:49 AM
Cool spot played it on the Sega Gamegear i wish i still had it.
Best game ever is Test Drive Unlimited for XBOX360 well untill GRID comes out.
Most relaxed game ever Endless Ocean on Nintendo Wii.
Best cell shaded game is Jet Set Radio for Dreamcast and the newer version on the old Xbox.
One of the coolest single player shooter games out there is Bioshock and runner up Prey.
Best xbox360 sport game is Rockstar table tennis or Sega Super star tennis.
My game marker loyalty goes to SEGA for making many new things ahead of there time and still making good games for all systems.
Next my games of the past takes me back to Nintendo and the Wii and DS bring stuff that should be almost no fun and make it great.
Microsoft for even with mistakes knows how to make the best online gaming system and Bill gates likes to spend his money on games and sometimes does not even look to get any money back.
Sony for making a PS3 to watch movies on..............wait wait i think it also plays games 2 and the PSP uses up power quick and needs to live on the charger and UMD movies are cool and it works is a MP3 player but was that a good idea for me to buy it sometimes i think not.
