How Much Have You Spent On PS2 Gaming?
« on: February 14, 2002, 10:59:59 AM »
I\'m bored and this forum is a bit dead at the moment so here\' somethin a bit different.

I got my PS2 when it was released, it cost £300. I bought a memory card for £25, 2 extra controllers for £40, a multitap for £30, DVD region x for £20, AR2 for £30, vertical stand for £10, rgb cable for £10 and many games, listed below:-

SSX - £45
TTT - £40
ISS - £40
Timesplitters - £45
Crazy Taxi - £40
Formula 1 2001 - £40
Red Faction - £40
GT3 - £45
RE:CVX - £40
GTA3 - £40
Pro Evo Soccer - £40
Bond: AUF - £45
TM:B - £40
THPS3 - £45
J&D - £40
Wipeout Fusion - £40
State Of Emergency - £40
MGS2 - £45.

(The game prices are the rrp, not exactly what i paid cos i got them from amazon etc)

In total, that amounts to £1215 (british pounds)
That is equivalent to approx. $1825

That is a $hitload of money!! I never really noticed until i just added it up. I\'m just wonderin how much the rest of you have spent, i\'d like to know the average amount. The poll is in USD as there are more americans on the boards than other nations. Tell us what u spent all your hard earned cash on too!!

P.S - Hint for UK people, to convert £ into $, multiply the amount in £ by 3, then divide that by 2

unit was 300$ + 40$ memory card + 35$ second controller

thats 375$ base

i never paid more than 20$ for all my PS2 games except for FFX

i have 11 games so thats 220$ + 45+

375 + 265 = $640 + tax

I\'d probably say with the PS2 included $600-1000.  I have I think 10 PS2 games oh well guess I have a lot more than $1000 in PS2 merchandise.:D

PS2 = $0
PS2 Games = $0
PS2 peripherals $0
PS2 Rentals to play on my Cuz\'s machine = $5

Ta dah! $5 total. Give me time though.. I\'m still waiting for that $200 price point and a bunch of "greatest hits" titles to roll out. Some extra cashflow might help too. Anyone wanna donate a few bucks to the "Buy SonyFan a PS2" fund? Please... anybody? Hello?! :(
