Just curious.  Was talking with another gamer the other day who scoffed at my 40+ games for Xbox 360.  Which platform has the lion's share of your games?  And how big is the pile?

Me: Xbox 360, 42.  Going to be 44 in two weeks after picking up Forza Horizon next week and LEGO Lord of the Rings the week after.

Depends. Actively play - PS3.  But actually own is probably PC first, then PS2 and then PS3.

I trade them in and out, so I have maybe 8 or 9 for the PS3 at the moment.  I've gotten particular about the games I like for the PS3.

I once had about 75 or 80 titles for the original PlayStation, but I donated the whole collection and the system to the Ronald McDonald House when they got broken into and robbed of all their video game systems years ago.



I still have about 25 cartridges for my Odyssey2, though.   :D

All my games are PS3.
RTW is on my laptop, but my son plays that, CIV4 lives in there somewhere too.

Only PC.  I haven't owned a console since the days of the SNES.  I have 144 games on Steam alone.  Some I haven't ever played.  Steam sales are dangerous.

My steam list is full of crap. I've got all the Ironclads games, which I got for a dollar. Like I have time to play that.

Ah, yeah.  Reminds me I should probably make that commercial games.  Back in the days when GameHippo was still alive, I had a ton of revolving freeware PC games.

If that includes a legal copy of Cyberia, I'm there.

I do remember I heard about a game, and looked on Steam to see if it was there.  The game was, and I tried to buy it, only to find I already owned it and didn't know.  The game wasn't that good though.  Saints Row 2, which didn't run well, and was really stupid.

I have ca. 40 games for XBox and way, way more for PC thanks to digital deliveriness. Steam alone has 120+

Mac.  :cool:

All games that I play currently (Crusader Kings 2, Civilization 5, Guild Wars 2, Sims 3) are for Mac.

I tend to throw away older games that I no longer play - there is really no reason to keep the discs around (besides most stuff is bought digitally today) - and I don't think I ever went back to a game that is older than 3-4 years, except perhaps when a new expansion pack for it was released.

I think people who "collect" computer games are just a more legitimate species of hoarders.
