Actually my every day life is get up and go to work, finish work go to another work, finish work and go to another work (3 Jobs). In between spend time with my kids and family and where I have spare time I work on an academic course and play video games. I am not denying that about 60% of my collection is from non legal means but that leaves 40% that I have legally obtained either from gifts or from purchasing myself. And yes I do buy games (preowned more than new). Also one of my jobs (of 22 years) is working in a school so any time the school gets rid of their old computers/projectors/games consoles (I've had 2x PS2 slims, a PSOne slim, a wii, a gamecube all with games) I get first refusal. I have around 17000 games and software in physical format and another couple of 1000 public domain titles that I have copied to Floppy or CD.cmon we all know you just downloaded those games and putted them all in the hdd, there is no way you dumped hundreds of games, just looked to your last 5 or 6 pages of posting you did and they are all about title limit even one of them is about ps2 1000+ games having issues, yeah right we all know you just have all those games in the attic too and dumped every single one of them yourself and all and still play all those games daily...
im not rich and i have a physical game collection, i dont buy every game, only the games i actually intend to play and i bough afew shelves that i putted along the wall to sort my games by console, it wasnt expensive nor did it take too much space at all, collectors invest in display stands same for the games themselves.
So your every day life is you buy a brand new game, you dump it and then throw the disc in the attic to never be taken out again, is that right? never saw anything so poorly stated just to not admit your pirated most of your complete collections...
At least admit it dont make it sound you have 10000 official physical games since c64 all stored in the attic a pirate should at least admit it.
My Vic20 is boxed up with all the games. So is my C64, ZX81, Sinclair Spectrum, BBC Master Compact, Atari ST, Amstrad CPC, I have an MSX1, and a Dragon32 (I am welsh after all) boxed together with some software (couldn't say what without digging it out). I have a JAMMA supergun I made myself from an arcade machine I rescued and a handfull of JAMMA boards (my cousin collects JAMMA so I get bootlegs from him).
I DO NOT HAVE A ROOM LARGE ENOUGH FOR MY COLLECTION.
Don't try to label me mate you really have NO CLUE .
