GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

I could say that I have too many games on my computer... I could say that but I wont. As far as I'm concerned, you can't have too many games. Just not enough hard drive space. I have a 60gb hard drive on my gaming laptop. That filled up way faster than I expected. So I went out and got an external hard drive. A Seagate 300gb. Now that 300gb might sound like a lot, but its running out of room too. Sure there is still about 130gb of space left, but I'm affraid that wont last long. I really don't want to get rid of any games either. I still play pretty much all of them. Some just not so often. I even still play games like PsycoToxic. Sure its a lame game but I get my kicks from it once in a blue moon. Believe it or not.. having those games on the external drive really doesn't hurt the performance of the game. I made sure to get one that has a high transfer rate so I don't get any lag while playing. About the only game that gets any lag..(very little) is F.E.A.R. There are certian games that will stay on my laptop hard drive, like all of the games that depend on Steam to play. Thats another thing in itself. I'm not a huge fan of Steam. I like the games, just not the fact you MUST be connected to steam in order to play them even if you just go with single player. Thats just stupid. (back to the subject) Some of the time what I will do is when I get a new game, I will install it on the laptop hard drive then when I've finished it (the first time) I will transfer it to the external drive. Freeing up space for the next game I buy. I can't just stop buying games. Hell no. One of these days I will have to get a new laptop... but not yet. This one still runs damn fine.

I love your first four sentences.
I have 80GB HDD and it's never enough. Even now, I have around dozen games on my PC installed and around 10 DVDs with my documents stored (videos, pics, game demos....). Yes, it's never enough.
