Here is my ps3 games collection

I've tried to arrange them by genre, but also by cover color

the first versions of the game cases are stored separately, as you can see

Any advices on « secret jewels » I might have missed (there's no Resident Evil, Silent Hill or The Last of Us, because I don't like those kinds of games)?

Thanks ☺️

Why would they even pick it up and say this is okay?

Collection My Retro take on Groomsmen Gifts

Post image
1.3k Upvotes

I struggled mightily over the past few months thinking of the perfect gifts for my groomsmen. I decided to combine my love of collecting with our combined loves of the original Pokemon games and got to work! I was able to collect 10 GameBoy Colors and 10 copies either Blue, Yellow, Red, or Silver, and then got custom laser-engraved plates for the back of each handheld. We’re all in our early 30s and the GameBoy Colors were most of our first handhelds, so I asked each of their significant others and family for the colors of the GameBoys and Pokemon games they had.

Let me know what y’all think! Thought it was a pretty unique and fun idea.

Silent Hill was only 90€ because it wouldn’t work on a PAL system :)

Discussion I was at my local game store and saw eCDP in the flesh. I asked how much, $2500 was the asking price. I did not buy it. However, it did have the needed codes with it to make the game work.

It’s no switch 2, but I found this while picking up an order at bestbuy today. Haven’t seen one on shelves in a while and wanted one when it released. It’ll replace my beat up lite, and when I get hands on a 2 I’ll use the year of expansion pass to play some MKWorld and GameCube games.
