I believe this for a few reasons. 1) Most of the expensive titles are only going to get more expensive. 2) the cheap titles will probably stay about the same price down the road once you get around to them 3) if for any reason you decide not to complete your full set, you won't be stuck with a bunch of cheap commons that you might not have bought otherwise. But of course, to each their own. You obviously know what you are doing since I've seen many pictures of your collection which is quite impressive. Also, what I said above doesn't apply if for any reason you expect the big name games to drop in price down the road. Either way, good luck. |

If I were only down to about 10 games, and they were all $200+, then I would probably just say screw it, close enough lol |
