How many games do you get in a year?

[Heartless1990]

My dad complains about how many games I get in a year's worth. This year, I got:

Star Ocean Till the End of Time (beat it)
God of War (Beat it)
Onimusha 3 (beat it)
Tekken 5 (beat it twice)
Super Smash Brothers Melee(I suck)
Tales of Symphonia (Boring quick)

 

[Blue Mage]

Aprox 6. Maybe 7.

 

[shadows rise]

Maybe three thats good enough for me.

 

[Lost Heaven]

I usually only get 4, maybe 5. This year I've only gotten FMA 1 and 2 so far.

 

[Zero Cerberus]

Anywhere from 9-15 a year. Hell yeah. XDDD

Im an extreame Gamer but this year i dont think iv bought one game yet. The only game i actually plan on buying is KH2. Usually i buy or get a maxium of 5 games top a year. I usually beat those game pretty quick though.

 

[Zero Cerberus]

I bought about, 8 games this year so far. And i'm planning on getting Socom 3. I don't really see anything else that interests me.

I buy more than nine games per year, but I wouldn't say that buying them takes all of my money. I like my games as much as the next guy, but I've got a life and family outside of gaming as well. I usually hit up the local bargain bins and flea markets every other month or so, so I can pick up more games than someone who just buys the newest $50 game.

I've been playing games for just under fifteen years and currently own about 237 games. Which means, on average, I get 15 or 16 games a year. Though truth be told, my buying rate has accelerated several times over since the PS2 launched -- I used to rent most of my games before then. (This month [August] alone I've picked up seven games.)

... I take back my earlier statement; I don't have a life.

 

[Blade of Justice]

I've bought quite a few games, and I need some money! These games are too expensive!

 

[Coffee Lover]

Looking back, when I was ten years old, I used to at least get ten games a year. But now, I'm almost fifteen and I barely get five games a year sometimes. The reasons why are because I'm running our of money or I have better things to spend money on, and I just don't have the time the play as much . . . or it could be that I'm out growing them, and that thought is kinda scary . . .

 

[nrthisup911]

i get about 3 games year

 

[PIG.]

Im not even gonna participate in the poll, but my family is waaaaaaay too poor to buy 5-9 games for me each year. They think games are a waste of time so they never buy them for me. I save up and buy them myself. And my allowance is $20 a month. I need to save up for 3 months just to get a new game. Isnt that nice. Ok, you can laugh at me now.

 

[Sora's minion]

well i ussally get ant least 6 a year. this year so far i got xenosaga 1, swbattlefront, grantrismo 3 aspec(dont no why!) thats it so far.

 

[JcMunny153]

well i had a birthday not to long ago and i had so much money and i blew it all on video games

 

[LordMune]

I buy roundabout three or four games a year- I personally have no idea how I manage this, considering my minimal allowance. -_-;;

 

[UnknownEnigma]

wow youre all cool....i get 0-1 game a YEAR! haha thats right i dont buy any games....quite sad. no not poorness but because my bro is a game machine and he beats every single game we buy. so my mom got mad and said if you want a game rent it and get a new one. so yeah we rent about ALOT to ALOT a year so he beats every single one...every week we get a new game if he plays non stop every 2-3 days we get a new game. but only games that were bought were for birthday and christmas from family... youre all lucky!
