Your Gaming Spend - 2014 Edition

[J0e Musashi]

I reckon I spent less than ?1000 on games in 2013, though in saying that my other hobby of expensive Nikes came in at about ?13,000. It wasn't helped at all by the ?5000 MAG's. Still, I haven't bought any hard drugs since I came out of the centre, and I haven't put any petrol in my car since June, so ?15,000 across all of my pastimes isn't too bad really.

You spent more on Nike trainers in a year than I earn in a year.

You splurged on a pair of Marty McFlys!?

[J0e Musashi]

When they were released I could only get a size 10, so I then spent two years tracking down a 9. It's something of an anti-climax as the instructions explicitly state that they should not be worn for any kind of strenuous activity whatsoever. I wore them to Brent Cross to pick up my Sister's new iPad, and they've been in the yellow box ever since. The charger needs a step-down too.

I've got the Marty McFly CW Hyperdunk and Hypermax too.

Will attempt to make it the whole year doing this. My goal, since I already own the new consoles, is no more than ?1200 for the year (average of ?100 a month). Already have some Amazon credit for a few games so see how I do! I'm also going to stop holding on to games I will never play again, may as well make some back from them. (I end up keeping loads of games until the end of the generation for some reason). Only holding onto ones I thoroughly enjoy and ones I see myself going back to eventually.

January:
Tomb Raider Definitive Edition Digipak (PS4) ?0 (Amazon Credit)
Monthly total: ?0

February:

Monthly total: ?30

March:

Been a bit busy, don't really plan to buy anything until a PC Engine Duo R now though, also saving for a dSLR so that will prevent me buying games somewhat. I haven't counted sales of game stuff either.

[speedlolita]

Well, this went horribly wrong.
