I saw that you have Tales of Legendia. Would that be a good game to get? I've been thinking of getting it, but I'm not sure if it's worth the money.

I'm not sure lol, I've never played at least 60% of my games (probably more) and only beaten a small hand full of the ones I have played.

 Judging from the critics reviews, its got roughly an 8 of 10
 The Gamefly User reviews are 7.2 / 10

This is something I don't understand. Maybe it's a collector's thing, but what's the point in owning games you don't play? I never really understood that.

I've known people who do the same thing, I think they just buy on impulse.

i don't know why either but i'm very guilty of this.  I own 102 NES games and probably only play ~ 10 (when the system is hooked up)

i am VERY guilty of this too. Alot i have acquired when buying a package of games to get my hands on one in particular, and a lot i have acquired because the price is right.  The intention is to play them, but the reality is that there are not enough hours in the day.

The only games I own right now that I haven't played are PS2 games as I'm not getting a PS2 until winter. 8)

The last game I played to completion was Beyond Good and Evil on the XBOX.  Most of the time I buy a game, play it for a little bit and put it away.  I love my collection.  I use the software from collectorz.com and it is fun to just see all of the stuff that I have gathered.  I go game by game and try to complete all of its information  (publisher, release date, genre, description, etc.).  It adds a a whole new dimension of fun to the hobby.

I use game collector from collectorz.com too - nice peice of software - only problem i have with it is that it never finds by barcode on european releases, so i have to type the game name to search.

As far as all the games I own but have not played...Its my Collection. 
(My wife is surprisingly understanding with it too)
 I just went to FYE, they had a 50% off all NEW XBOX, Gameboy Advance, and Gamecube games...


    I left with 9 more  games for the collection

Everyone is free to add me.  (though I tend to play 1 player games (Rpg, Action Rpg, Action Adventure))

I am Jealous of your Tv, and the fact that you have a place you can dedicate to JUST gaming.

If I could paint my walls, Id Probably Do a Secret Of Mana Background ( Mana Tree pic with the 3 characters in front of it) or something RPG related.
