OK, lets keep this going gamers. For beige box and country!!

Only if you're a vegetarian! We usually have Turkey with trimmings (and I don't mean trimmings that you hang up or put on your Christmas tree!) with plenty of wine, port, sherry, beer, Gin etc.etc <):0 P

Good point, and yes I have done that in the past before. I just don't want too many games in my collection, especially games I know I won't play on ever again. This only really applies to my console games though, of which I sold a bulk load of a few months back and got a nice tidy off them. IO still have much of my original PC games collection in tact.

I appreciate the point but the advantage is that when you come back to play them and you get a bit further then you start thinking .... "Hmmm! Never realised this game was so good, think I'll play some more!" At least that's what I hope will happen.....
Hobbo. Am not Santa so can't grant all 3 of your wishes but am willing to send you a bag of elastic bands just don't know where to! Am interested tho', why not turn your hobby into a PC Game and we could all fire PC elastic bands (Laggy Bands where I come from) at each other all night!
(Damn! I should have kept this idea to myself. Will beat the hell out of Harry Potter, Lord of the rings and probably 007. In fact you could have a virtual laggy band gun and shoot all the Germans in whatever WW2 game you are currently playing! Why stop there? If the public demands it you could have an elastic band firing option on any game you played so if you were playing FIFA 2003, you could be in the croud firing laggy's at the referee!
In Star wars you could have a Laggy band firing fighter and....get this.... a light sabre made out of Laggy's so that when you met the baddy your light sabre would extend every time you swung it around thus ensuring complete victory over the Empire!.... and , of course, they're quite useful for keeping small things all in one place.)

Well I do have quite a bit saved up, but the only reason I can afford to own 2 consoles and maintain my PC gaming, is because I don't buy as many games as you'd think I would.
I only like to buy games after I've completed or nearly completed the last one I bought, just so I can get my money's worth with each game. I used to buy game after game at one point in time, but this meant I rarely had chance to complete any of them which made me feel like I wasting my money.
