After. Tbh, I thought that post won the thread.

Bah, this thread is getting poitnless anyway.

Amassing a pile of video games is a collection. In that you have collected them. Therefore, you are a collector. What are you not getting here?

Cool! Yeah I can't wait to play it having heard great things not only about the superb graphics, but the gameplay and overall design as well.

True. And summoning a fcuk off fire breathing dragon to take out the enemies never gets old.

Played this back in the day and thought it was pretty dire. It did have a 2 player option though unlike the otherwise superior Final Fight, which meant we got a few hours worth of play out of it. (I think There's also a special Vs. mode in it somewhere?) Super Play slated this game as well if I reme...

Just two games for me this year:

Odin Sphere and KOF Maximum Impact Reg. A on the PS2.

Oh right, so no-one on this forum has a collection of games then?

Big assumption, and quite wrong.

How so?

These are probably the games I spent the most time with on each generation:

8-bit: Super Mario Bros.

16-bit: Street Fighter II

32-bit: Final Fantasy VII

64-bit: Goldeneye

Sega Rally Championships on Saturn is a much better game than the sequel on Dreamcast. Daytona USA 2001 is the best home port however.

Haha nice one Elgin, so true. Only system that's ever conked out on me was the C64. I used to have the breadbin version which I gave away to a relative so I could get the newer model. I got through 3 newer machines before finding a stable one that worked and the breadbin version wored the whole time...

Video gamers are collectors by nature. For most of us it is the playing of the games themselves that is the most important part and I agree with that 100%. But pretty much everyone on this forum is going to have a whole stack of games and why should you have to put up with ugly, badly designed cover...

Exactly. And the original art for Final Fight was quality:



EDIT: Yes I realised this was an updated version for the Sega CD version.
