Wow, I bought an Xbox 360 Elite and a Wii a couple months ago and have really gotten back into video games. I haven't played anything at all since the N64 days but I have since purchased tons of games. I haven't even had a chance to play half of them yet.

Here's the current list

Xbox:
Halo 3, Forza 2, Rainbow Six: Vegas, GRAW 2, Test Drive Unlimited, Gears of War, Half-Life 2: The Orange Box, Need For Speed: Most Wanted, Project Gotham Racing 3, Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, Assassin's Creed, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Madden 07, Mass Effect, BioShock

Wii:
Wii Sports, AMF Bowling Pinbusters!, Rayman: Raving Rabbids, Need For Speed: Carbon, Tiger Woods PGA Tour '08, Call of Duty 3

I'd hate to think how much money I have in all this now.

Yeah somehow my best buy employee purchases like doubled from last september to now.. wierd.

I dont like looking at my employee purchases balance.. but it calms me to look at how much I WOULD have spent in retail price. Thank god I get a discount, otherwise Id never buy half the **** I have.

I've been buying off eBay a lot lately. I can get games almost at half their price in perfect condition. Lucky for me there's a lot of people out there that either just need the money really bad or play the game once and get bored with it.
I'm at the point now that if I don't buy another game all year I honestly think I have enough games that I haven't even started yet to keep me busy without over playing a single game.

Same here.. I have quite a few games, and Im buying a few more that I know of this year:

360:
Halo 3, Crackdown, Madden 07, Forza 2, Marvel Ultimate Alliance, Call of Duty 4, Gears of War, Condemned, and Rock Band.

I have only beaten cod4, rock band a couple times, and almost beaten crackdown.. I still have a few games to take care of.

For the Wii:
Wii sports, Call of Duty 3, Zelda, Wii Play, and Mario Galaxy.

I know Im going to buy GTA4 yet, which Ill be playing for a very long time, and The Force Unleashed... Although Im unsure if I want to get it on the Wii or 360, but Im leaning towards 360. If they come out with mario kart for wii soon, Ill get that also.. and any other game that appeals my interest in the next few months.

I'm hooked on Devil May Cry 4 now. I love the DMC games for the PS2. Hack and slash games are more my speed.

I did mostly finish Forza 2 a couple weeks ago. Level 50 and all races completed.

Now to decide if I want to buy a PS3 for Gran Turismo....

BIG price difference trust me. Remember I was going back and forth and I'm happy with the choice I made. The ATI Procharger I was looking at was a good price but then I would have to change the cam, gears, fuel pump, injectors, clutch, etc... It'd really end up costing a whole lot more.

I don't even want to count how many games I have, I'm going to guess around 300 total, mostly PS2, but I have about 35 or so 360 games.

I mooch off my bro's 360 games. I've only bought Need for Speed Carbon. Too busy with real life to get back into it like the good old days. Although I've gotten a few games here and there for other systems and I play them at night to put me to sleep. Going to get Ikaruga for Gamecube soon. That game kicked so much ***.

I just bought a 22" samsung, and GeForce 8600 GT OC for my pc... I wanted it slightly for gaming, but more for my TV, now I can finally watch movies that will look better on the TV since the card can output a good resolution. Must say I love the moniter as well, this resolution is much nicer. I also bought San Andreas for the xbox.. I liked that game a lot, and I want to play through it again. Should tie me over until GTA4.
