Maze Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Just curious about others. I've most likely spent over $900 on video games and consoles total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danqazmlp Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Personally, under £300. That is because all the consoles in my house have been brought by my older brother, and most games are his. Why buy games and consoles when i can leech off him :thumbsup: The only games i buy are the odd PC game during the spring/Autumn. As my Birthday is slap bang in the middle of summer, i can usually get some games for Xmas, then they will last me until my birthday. That is only 1-2 games each time, but i am not a hude gamer.

Nadril Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Like, across your entire lifetime or what? If it's that then I have no clue, probably more than I'd like to admit. I mean, I have probably $500+ worth of games on my steam account alone. That isn't including the $400 or so I put towards a 360 a couple of years back, the $1000 I put towards a gaming laptop, the $50 headset, $50 mouse, the $400ish of 360 games, the amount of money I've paid in MMO subscriptions. I've paid a lot for games and I have to say it is probably impossible to total it up over all these years. I mean, I've been playing games for probably around 18 years now (since I was like 3) and while it may not have always been my "own" money I spent on games I still have spent a lot on them, period. I would gather though that I've spent at least a few thousand on video games (or accessories related to video games) over the course of my life.

Dax Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Over $2,000, easily. If I didn't spent it on gaming, I didn't have the money. #KERR2016/17/18/19/20/21. #rpgformod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maze Posted December 31, 2009 Author Share Posted December 31, 2009 Oh yes, forgot about all that money I wasted on RS. It's probably over $1100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rainy_Day Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Games, Consoles, etc? I have around 40 games which are normally £40 each so £1600 already, along with my Xbox 360, and Playstation 3, which were bought at release so another £600 to that? Along with RS Membership over the years probably means another £180 or so. Then adding old consoles like the Xbox, PS2, PSP, and Gameboy another couple of hundred pounds. All in all I'd guess around £2,900. :mellow: Money well spent. 8-) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)RIP Michaelangelopolous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skull Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I've personally spent about $100 or so. I probably have about $1000 of gaming stuff. [bleep] the law, they can eat my dick that's word to Pimp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy500fan Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Hard to gauge since I am mostly a computer gamer, and whether or not a PC should count to the total is debatable, since it can be used for so much other stuff. I did spend a little over a $1,000 just to have a nice computer when Oblivion came out. Random purchases/upgrades before and after that probably add up to at least another $1,500. Then I've had many different consoles, but usually only a few years after they are out. I did buy a Wii bundle for around $500 when it was fairly new and just bought a PS3 in the summer for $350. I think I paid $30 for my PS1 which I still have. Then at some point I had a GameCube which I don't remember exactly what buying and selling price was but I remember losing about $50, same with an x-box I lost about $50, and then I still have my Sega Nomad which cost around $30. Probably spent around $100 on PS1 games, $100 on GC, don't think I ever got another regular x-box game other than KotoR which I got it with, about $100 on PS3 games, about $300 on PC games and around $200 on random peripherals for all the systems.

Seraphi Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 At least £850 in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Runar Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Hard to say. Maybe about €1500 or so. I haven't spent very much on games for the last few years because most new games suck. Everyone plays either FPS or MMORPG games, and these are the two genres which are just all the same. Some old FPS games (DOOM!!!) are great though and the two MMORPG's I play are RS and KoL (Kingdom of Loathing). All other free MMORPG's are copies of each other and non-free ones cost too much. FPS games would be nothing without fancy graphics. And I can't understand why killing is so fun. When I buy games, I usually search for old gems which are really cheap but still full of awesomeness. The last game I bought was Legend of Zelda: Link to the Past for GBA. When it comes to newer games (like those published in last three years), most of them are so easy that I can complete them in under ten hours. A good game should last at least 20 hours, but really good games must have at least 40-50, which is for some reason impossible for today's game designers. Twenty years ago that was possible even with just 1 MB of available space (FF4 for example). If someone can create a game with 50+ hours of playtime for PC or DS, I'm buying that no matter which game it is. For now, I'm playing mostly free games of which there's a plenty even for Linux. NetHack owns even though it's from the 80s. Same for Dwarf Fortress even though it's not from the 80s. And the game developers make them for free.

Aeon_ Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Hmm....360, PS3, Wii, PS2, XBOX, GBA, Mega Drive in consoles, so over £600 at least.Probably over £300 on games lol. :P Many believe that the 1980 eruption of Mt. Saint Helens was a catostrophic geological event, in reality it was the day that Jimi Hendrix returned to Earth from the next world and actually stood up next to a mountain and chopped it down with the edge of his hand.-Random Youtuber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamdan Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Not a whole lot.. I bought my 360 console, paid $20ish for a cod4 key, $35 on tales of money island, $10 on dungeon keeper 2, $30ish on css. Maybe $15 on rs p2p. That's about it, the rest was either pirated or bought by my brother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zierro Posted January 3, 2010 Share Posted January 3, 2010 I've only spent around $300. My dad probably spent over $5000. We had just about every popular console at one point in time, each with a fair sum of games. I also took into account when my dad payed for my RS membership and my brother's WoW.

Tacos Posted January 13, 2010 Share Posted January 13, 2010 I bought my Wii the day it came out, that's 250$ right there, 130$ on rock band 2, I also bought a DS (regular when it came out for 130$, at least 100$ in Runescape Membership... so an estimate of that stuff is just 610. Adding on about 600$ worth of other games would be around 1,200$! OH MY GOD I PLAY VIDEO GAMES TOO MUCH D: I need to see a psychologist D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was more like 17 years ago. Starting from when I was 4ish I used to spend 4 or 5 hours 6 days a week helping on the farm. Naturally when I was younger it was basic tasks and once I got turned about 12 I was on a full farm hands wage, so about 800 a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
