Timing on this is weird, I was just posting my new stuff on my profile then I see this thread

SHOOT! Art of Vengence is out on physical?! I need to get on that soon, since I was waiting to buy the game until it got a wide physical release.

I picked up Sifu Vengeance edition on the PS5 recently, it came with a nice little art book. I did play it on the PC but dropped it when it crashed half way through the club level (second level but it is evil tough), I just need to set aside 40 years to master the kung fu in this game and finish it.

Bought Dragon's Dogma 2 recently, haven't play it yet.

This was accumulated over a few months at auction for cheap but picked up at the same time in early October with the exception of Saints Row The Third which I found at the thrift store the day before I picked up the others. It's actually less than half of what I ended up with during that time.

Also for current gen I picked up a physical copy of Ghost of Yōtei.

Moving into a new House right now and found these again recently.

I recently (a month ago or so?) posted about me picking up Street Fighter Collection. I guess I deleted the image of just the game, so here’s my entire Saturn collection lmao

I love collecting. I don’t really complete collections, and I don’t think it’s the only way to play, but it’s the way I prefer to play and it’s what works for me.

While addmittedly this isn't recent it's still my favorite catch I've gotten so far.
I was able to get this limited version of gears of war 2 which is the first game I've ever played and is what got me into gaming as a whole.

Mainstream media and "influencers" Are dead beat morons one should not give a shit about what they say or think. Sure I have a few influencers I follow and like but they are normal folk with brain. Majority of big and mainstream influncers just pure trash and bad influence on today's youth.
I rather die than give up physical media because I wanna own what I bloody paid for.

Anyway here is some proud physical games I got. I have more than this but they are just normal editions these are well you can see for your self.

There’s something special about that. I have a few games that got me into video games (it was a slow and tedious process since my family had only a Wii for the longest time and I didn’t like motion control as an ADHD riddled child), but the game I can safely say got me IN was this guy!

I only played the DS versions as a kid, but I ALWAYS looked on in envy at the console and PC versions. Nowadays, I have a 360 in my home, and I’m SO CLOSE TO BEING ABLE TO GET THE VERSION OF THE GAME I ALWAYS WANTED, but I’m not the only one nostalgic for it and now the price has gone comparatively wild for 360 games. It’s not too bad, it’s a little less than it was at launch at an average of $50, but I also have a kinda funky 360 controller so that’s taking priority. Plus, I have to be honest, I don’t know if I would get a ton out of the game right now since it’s a very intense co-op experience and my partner has never played a third person shooter in her life.

I’ll get it one day! Just have to be patient. Like fishing! Fishing for Optimus Prime :3

I had a pretty good haul when I went into town yesterday:

Everything complete and in great condition, minus a few stickers and a bit of sticker residue

Hell yeah, TNA Impact! Cross The Line & SVR 06. Nice. I have a PSP but I have zero physical games for it smh. Currently winning an auction for a lot of them tho, fingers crossed.

The place I got these from was actually also the place I got my PSP from like 9 years ago. Back then, they had a PSP bundled a bunch of accessories and like 10 games for about the equivalent of $30 USD

I ended up paying almost $60 for mine and that was just over this summer but I also had to buy a battery & battery cover online but all of it was worth it. I didn't waste time in jailbreaking it.

I would say, as an honest recommendation, that jail breaking it is a fantastic option! The hardest part is finding time to do so, since it will take a little while, but doing so allows for you to add things even beyond just games, such as “holdplus” which lets the system be an even better little MP3 player. Not to mention, I consider the PSP to have some of the strongest selections of themes, both custom and non-custom, that I’ve ever seen.

I respect keeping it stock, but the quality of life I got from my modded one FAR outstripped even my modded 3DS. Something to consider, I guess!

(Also, I wish the system’s battery situation was less frustrating. Aftermarket ones, which I got suckered into buying, last no time at all. An OEM one is the way to go, but I did have an OEM battery die on me earlier this year. Possibly just bad luck, but it’s something to think about. At least it’s easier to replace the battery on the PSP than it is on the Vita )

My pretty insane haul this past weekend. All bought from local stores, and some for insanely cheap prices. Finally got a copy of Ratchet & Clank 2 for my collection!
