eBay

I added some stuff to it, got lots more yet. I started listing some DC games but when I got to PSO I couldn't go through with it and instead spent the next couple of hours playing DC games. I just have far too many fond memories with them, I can't sell them on. I think I'm going to play through them all again very very soon. I've kept a few DS, PS2 and GC games, only one handful total, they deserve to stay. I have a buyer for the 360 set up and I'm thinking of chucking the Wii. The PS3 might stay, I should probably sell that as well though.

Selling Up?

I've been thinking of doing this for a while now. I have a lot of games, far more than is shown in my Backloggery. Games I beat long ago such as Dreamcast games, PSX games, GC games, MD games, Snes games...etc. I also, for whatever reason just can't get into handheld gaming, my 360 never gets used, my PS3 is a Battlefield 1943 box and my Wii is a glorified emulation machine. PC is where I play most of my games and lord knows I have enough of those to keep me going for the next 5+ years. There are the occasional console games I want to play but they're so infrequent I'm not sure it's worth holding onto the systems. Part of me wants to collect every machine under the sun but it just ends up being a lot of clutter. It'd be nice to just be free of it all and only have one or two. I wouldn't mind getting rid of my current PC as well, it's a fucking beast right now. Seriously, you could fit a small child in the Akasa Eclipse, an SFF system would be far more id...

Digital Distribution is bad for your wallet

The sales going on at GoG and Steam right now are crazy! I just can't resist. You can buy Torchlight for £3.74 today. £3.74! I tried to hold out but I've spent a good £20 already. These deals are just too good to pass up. So far I've picked up- I'm kind of hoping The Last Remnant goes on sale at some point. I'd snap it up for a fiver guaranteed!

A 360 owner once more

My dad got a 360 on the cheap from work and gave it to me O.o It didn't cost much since it was literally just the console and power brick (it wasn't stolen :p). It didn't come with a HDD, Ethernet cable, controller, display cable or plug. Thankfully I have spares of everything bar the HDD and already have it set up and working. I'll grab a cheap HDD soon so I can re-download all of my XBLA games and have a look out for any 360 exclusives. Now I'll be able to play Alan Wake again! I still hate you Microsoft.
