I've shifted from monthly magazines to visual collections/artbooks myself too to ease the financial descent. Truly an inspiration for us all! :) Loved the pie charts!

Not so much for me ^^;; Crusader, another fellow spender ;) For the Wii, I still think it's a great system but really more a group thing than anything else. Also I'm too cheap arsed to want to purchase old games for the Wii although old school games like Punch Out do *still* rock! For the PS3, pretty much MGS4, FFXIII (whatever versions), and RE5 at least. They don't come out for awhile but at least they'll be something to look forward to in the next year or so. Adun, yea although seeing all that money gone in actual numbers does make me shed a tear every once in awhile. Can't wait to see how much you've been racking up my friend ;) DiGiKerot, good for you right? But good to hear that you're actually saving money for once. That seems like a pipe dream for me ^^;; And nah, didn't buy Fate/TC although it does look interesting. Maybe in the future if I really want it. For the PS3, wouldn't know. Most of the games I do play on the PS2 are imports or er... "borrowed" LOL manga, yea it makes the pain a little less knowing there are others in similar financial situations as yourself. Sucks to hear about your dogs and PS2 but cool that you got it replaced. Luckily, don't have any pets so that hasn't been an issue for me. And yes, I as well feel jealous towards those that understand moonspeak (esp text) since I know like jacksh*t yet still buy the stuff. kiryuu, hahaha I guess that’s a good thing.. for you?

And when the time comes, hopefully there will be a laptop as well. But then we´re talking like two/three years away :p PS3 is nice for playing DVDs and PS2 games :) Persona 3 on my TV with PS3 and cordless controller is like heaven when you have two big dogs who any moment can stroll in and break havoc if you have any cords lying around. They had my PStwo going to the floor a couple of times and yes, they broke it, luckily for me I got it replaced :) now awaiting Disgaea 3. I feel jealous of the ones here who do understand moonspeak. How many great games you are able to play which I can´t :( As always it´s kinda nice to see that people buy a lot of stuff so I don´t have to feel bad when I preordered five games a couple of months ago :p

I may not have been buying much in the way of figures the last year, but I do make up for it in other areas. Though, looking at my bank balance, I think I must have been a bit more restrained all around this last year. Running out of storage space does wonders for financial solvency. Speaking of unused PSPs, did you get Fate/TC? I forgot to order it. Oh, and the PS3 is kind of nice for upscaling PS2 games too.

Though for me, I can easily see most of my finances have gone to figures than anything else as I rarely buy DVDs. I'll still hold off till the end of the year to work mine out.

I can tell by my current forecast of wants that I am going to be down nearly 2500 USD by Christmas. As to the Wii I have been using mine for Metroid Prime 3, Super Paper Mario, Mario Strikers, RE 4, Mario Party 8 and virtual console for a trip down memory lane as of late. Perhaps there are some old games that you have missed out on before? I know I still love Punch Out after all these years. In the case of the PS3 I just borrowed my friend's to play Resistance which I just finished...the ending was kind of a let down. At any rate what are these good games for the PS3 you speak of? MGS4 isn't due until net year so what has you so excited if you don't mind me asking?
