2005 Videogame Spending Tab

[quote name='hiccupleftovers']So who else has been keeping up with their spending tab?[/QUOTE]

I'm glad I'm starting to. I really need to slow the hell down with my purchases. :lol:

I feel your pain brother, I really really need to slow down a little. Wait, who am I kidding not a little, a lot. :lol: I really like the Spending Tab idea though. Really helps me see what I have picked up from each month and how much I've spent.

Well, who needs Dr. Phil when we can just console each other. I didn't do any better, I recieved my Dragon Warrior VII which I bought off of ebay for $20 and bought at Fry's Digital Devil Saga for 39.99.
 
April:
$1.99 Eternal Darkness GC
$9.99 Ratchet and Clank Going Commando PS2

For some reason the other months are just a blur :D

But did get RE0, RE1, Mario Kart DD, Zelda Collectors Disk, Twisted Metal Black, and a few more that slip my mind over the past couple of months

List doesn't include SNES/N64/incomplete PSX games I got that I intend to trade/sale off. And thanks to EB/Fry's/TRU/Gamestop's sales and GR's +$5 bonus, many recent new games are under $20 out of my pocket :)
 
Holy crap was April a rough month for my wallet. May looks to be the same with the recent release of Stella Deus, the upcoming release of Atelier Iris, and the current GC sale. Not too mention anything else that by chance pops up. Aarg
 
I've been keeping up with mine... It's easy to do when it's on the front page. I've forgotten some of the exact prices though so some will include tax & shipping and some don't.

I just can't believe I've spent close to $400 this year on video game stuff!

These don’t include the games I bought for another people from ebay. If I did, there would be way too many and it’s hard to remember. These are the games I bought for me, I’m trying not to buy too much this year since I already brought a lot last year and it’s hard to find time to play them all.

I will update this as I buy more, I also know I have left off a few things...
 
my wife would kill me if she new, since my last post i have been buying all old consles, i think in the ballpark off 500 dollars in a month and a half, i need vga, instead of aaa. i cant go a day or 2 without a new game for dc or saturn
 
Rounded to the nearest dollar:

January
RE4 Collector's Ed.+guide- $64 (w/emp disc)

February
Xenosaga 2+coll. guide- $64 (w/ emp disc)

March
World of Warcraft Coll. Ed.- $70
Mr. Driller DS $26 (w/emp disc)

April
Digital Devil Saga- $47 (w/emp disc)
Zoo Keeper- $20

May
*Jade Empire- $10 (w/Xbox Retail Program)
*Haunting Ground- $34 (w/emp disc)

June
Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones- $27 (w/10% off Target coupon)
Atelier Iris- Free after trade-ins
Riviera- $5 after trade-ins

The trade-in money for the above two games (which are out tomorrow) is from the Xbox I traded in for $75. I wouldn't trade in jack shit to GS or EB but the hassle of shipping an Xbox to someone who bought it from me is way too much. Maybe if it were a Cube or PS2...

Total thus far: $367 Not too shabby considering the amount I used to spend on games.
*Plan on trading/selling anyway so I get some money back
 
I don't think I bought very much this year at all. All I can think of is Wario Ware Twisted for GBA. I used to buy about 6 games a month until I had the epiphany that I would never be able to freeze time long enough to play these damn things.

You sir are a RAG! Dam thats a lot of money, I would love to see a pic of your nice collection, if your cheapest amount of cash you spent was $366! I might be at about $800 on the year. Have to go dig through my paper to see.

Face it: This isn't a good year to buy games. Not like 2004...
 
dude, how the hell can you people be spending like 2 grand on games?????? I cant wait to see your numbers at the end of the year, AFTER the 360 comes out
 
Well it helps if you....

don't have kids (don't need the headache)
don't smoke (don't need the addiction)
don't drink (don't need the vice)
don't have a cell phone (don't need the annoyance)
don't have a girlfriend (don't need the drama)
don't have to drive far to work

The saving grace for me is that I never buy systems at launch. I probably won't get a 360 until Halo 3 comes out.
