As many for you know games are very expensive, but how much do you spend on games. More importantly how much did you spend on games. I've totted up my collection and how much it would be worth if it were still full retail price. *prepare to be shocked*

(this is just for the 360) (Also as the pound symbol isnt working all currency will be refered to as GBP- Great British Pounds)

Xbox 360 Bundle = 320GBP- included Tomb Raide:Legend, PGR3 and second controller.

Play and Charge Kit- 15GBP

XBL GOLD 1yr= 40GBP

2100 MS points= 18GBP (x3)

XBL Vision Cam= 35GBP

Wireless Headset= Free

Now we're on to games (In no particular order)

Saints Row= 40GBP

Skate= 40GBP

Mass Effect (LCD)= 40GBP

Devil May Cry 4 (LD)= 40GBP

The Orange Box= 29.98 (sale price)

StrangleHold= 19.99GBP (sale price)

Army Of Two= 40GBP

Call Of Duty 4= 40GBP

Halo 3= 40GBP

Command & Conquer 3= 20GBP (pre-owned)

Forza 2= 40GBP

Beautiful Katamari= 40GBP

Burnout Paradise= 40GBP

King Kong= 25GBP

Fight Night R3= 40GBP

Fear= 10GBP

Star Trek Legacy= 30GBP

Lego Star Wars II= 20GBP

Flatout UC= 30GBP

Battle Stations Midway= 25GBP

Test Drive Unlimited= 30GBP

Bioshock= 40GBP

Crackdown= 40GBP

Assassin's Creed= 40GBP

Dead Rising= 40GBP

Now that makes a total of = 1,263.97

Now if we factor in any A/V equipment

PC monitor= 155GBP

Speakers= 30GBP

VGA Cable= 20GBP

The total amount= 1,473.97GBP (2,966.96 US$) (1,924.48 Euros)

Thats a lot of money, but thats over the entire course of owning a 360 since January 07.

I dont own all of those games anymore, thats just what ive collected and traded or sold, Most of the stuff I got since september as I get paid to go college (its called EMA -Eductional Maintence Allowence but I changed it to Electronic Media Allowence lol) At present I only has 12 disc games and a few arcade games. I don't really know how I managed to get that much though, alot of money juggling went on.

Games are really expensive, that's why only rent nowadays and only buy the games that are really good like Call of Duty 4 and Grand Theft Auto 4. I wonder how much the company makes a profit out of the games weekly.

I dread to think how much in total my collection would add up to. The thought of doing so scares me
