For Me:

-Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise..... $59.99

-Rock Band 2................................ $59.99

-Fallout 3...................................... $59.99

The rest of 'em are coming from Christmas and my birthday. Yikes, thats almost $200. But thats only three games too. Post yours.

Oh and "btw" did you know that the average core gamer spends $30,000 dollars in their lifetime on Gaming?

way... way... too much. There are alot of games coming out that I'm planning on getting... Q3-4 of this year seem to be even worse than Q3-4 last year (which I can't believe is even possible).

I make decent money at my job, and I don't have any bills to pay yet, so I'm planning on buying whatever I want, while still putting money into my savings every so often. Here are the games I'm probably buying;

Rock band 2 (the entire set)
Gears of War 2
Farcry 2
Fallout 3

Then I'm asking for Madden '09 and Guitar Hero World Tour (game only) for Christmas.

There are other games, like Halo Wars, Fable 2, and Dead Space that I might get somewhere down the line.

I'm also planning on spending more money on people for Christmas this year, so some of these games might not happen, but I hope so.

Well, I bought my 360 this year plus a Best Buy warranty plus an extra controller, what's that, about $450? And a new 32" LCD TV to play it on, about $550. Then maybe $150 on games so far (sticking to $20 or less games so far, except Bioshock, which I bought new at Best Buy for $40 when I bought the 360). In conclusion, probably too much . . . :-)

I just mainly want to get Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts=$60. I will probably get some older games but those wont cost to much and Im gonna get Banjo Kazooie and Tooie when they come out in the Arcade and maybe a couple other Arcade games. I need a 12 month live membership to and I might want to get Far Cry 2. So luckily I'm not spending that much.

far too much, I've already spent quite a bit on games and there is even more that I want further into the year such as fable 2, sw: the force unleashed, midnight club LA plus many more, do I want to know how much this is going to cost me? I think not:shock:

This year I've bough a total of about 12 new games, one of them was Rock Band... I've spent way too much! This isn't including non-gaming related things such as computer parts, sneakers, clothing, tattoos, etc. Yeah...

I forgot that you said this year!!!

I bought Madden 08 in february for about $30

I got Grand Theft Auto IV SE $90

And I completely forgot about Vigilante 8 coming to XBLA

so from my $119.98(+ GTA IV's DLC $????) the total will be about $339.98(+ GTA IV's DLC $$$ and taxes)

Rounding it off, I'd say about $400

Through this thread, I'm starting to realize that us gamers are spending SOO much money. I mean, I know people are willing to spend alot for their favorite hobby, but some of these people are 12, 13 years of age and saving up their money so they can spend 400 dollars on THEMSELVES this holiday.

I just can't really comprehend that.
