After a period of renting games and not really buying anything new, I've gone on a binge of epic (well, at least for me) proportions. In the past month, I've picked up:

PS1:
Colony Wars
Madden 98

PSP:
MGS: Portable Ops
Jeanne D'Arc
Syphon Filter
Valkyrie Profile

PS2:
Y's
Valkyrie Profile
GTA: Vice City Stories
Bully
Socom Combined Assault
Scarface
Devil May Cry Collection
Shadow of the Colossus

Xbox:
Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

360:
Marvel Ultimate Alliance
Perfect Dark Zero Limited Edition

Twenty games in all for about $230 which isn't bad, but I don't know when I'll find the time to play them. What's the worst binge you've ever been on?

I have been myself maybe not as much as that but i just picked up a new ps2(slim) since theres no new games for my Xbox or Gamecube and i dont think i want a next gen system just yet.So right now im grabbing up some older games for cheap and a few new ones too.

PS2:

NHL 08
Mercenaries
Fifa 08(reserved)

Xbox:

NFL 2k5
NBA 2K5

Gamecube:

Metroid Prime

DS:

Picross
Zelda Phantom Hourglass(pre-paid)

Thats about over the last 3 weeks for me and maybe a total of around $165 since some were only $5

I've done that before. Earlier this year I beat Sly 1-3, Jak 1-3, and Ratchet & Clank 1-3, plus Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Super Paper Mario, and a few other assorted titles during a 1-month span.

Right now, I'm hooked on Persona 3. I've played it for about 20 hours in the past two days.

This week I bought:

360
Madden 08
Stranglehold

PS3
Heavenly Sword
Ninja Gaiden Sigma

A pretty big binge for me.

Nowhere near that extent. At most i only buy 2 games, since i rarely have the time to play multiple at once. Plus, i tend to get distracted so I'll end up ignoring specific ones while i'm in to others.

Of course, with the Toys R Us sale i might pick up 360 games since it would be discounted a lot.

You need to talk to GatorDeb

I've seen some of her other threads as well, and I'd say she could school you a bit on game binges

I bought a PSP Slim and 8 games.

Truth!

But then again at one time I was no better. When I used to live in Alhambra my first job was with Party City, which was next door to a Toys R Us. Oh man the things I spent my money on. Bad enough I was (still am) an avid toy collector so along with buying up Star wars figures I usually ended up buying a LOT of video games. One check stands out among the rest because that day I bought....

Street Fighter Collection
Street Fighter Collection 2
Rival Schools
Metal Gear Solid
Megaman Legends
WWF WarZone
Tekken 3

I kinda miss the days of having no bills to worry about

this weekend i kinda binged and bought: ps3 60 gig, spiderman 3 collector's edition, motorstorm, tony hawk 8, virtua fighter 5, and call of duty 3

I managed to get all that for about $350 [ps3 and spiderman were auction wins, the rest were puchased with trade in credits.] I didnt want to get a console without anything to play on it, but i still forgot to pickup a blu-ray movie =/

Amen. It's kind of funny that when you are a child, you can't wait to grow up. Then when you are older, you wish you could be young and irresponsible again.

I had my PS3 and only had NHL '07 for about 9 months.

I bought a Wii in the beginning of July and only had Wii Sports for about a month.

From August 10 - September 12 I bought:

Tiger Woods (PS3)
Madden (PS3)
Godfather (Wii)
Mario Strikers (Wii)
Carnival Games (Wii)

For me, since I dont play games much, this is a binge.

I don't know about a binge but I'm always looking for games. Every week I'm looking through used games and seeing what out in the new stacks.
