The Duck Collector
My own gaming set up... which will eventually go into a better storage unit where they are hidden away... and where my cats will quit trying to sit on the Xbox on the top shelf!
I still have some of my very old games... Baldur's Gate: Shadows of Amn, Neverwinter Nights and Icewind Dale for the PC. I'm pretty sure I still have a copy of Zork on a 3.5" floppy tucked away in a drawer. They'll likely end up in the garbage at some point as they're on media that just isn't really used anymore or for windows versions long since dead. In fact, if I can't rightly remember where those games are even stored, then when I do come across them I know that they'll end up getting tossed. In fact, re-playing those particular games would likely ruin the very fond memories I have of them.
While I think it's awesome and wonderful that some people collect games and game-related items... I also think it's entirely possible to be a gamer and not have a massive collection of games or any gaming related items. My home is a reflection of "me", but "me" is more than games, and mostly "me" isn't a collector - of anything. Well... maybe I'm a collector or memories - but those don't take up too much space!

About Elsaone of us since 2:27 PM on 01.25.2009
I'm 55 years old. I'm female, a cancer survivor, happily married, and retired from the work force... and I spend way too much time gaming. I enjoy long walks on the beach, with a gun, sometimes with my husband - shooting n00bs.
I not only like to shoot people, I also enjoy cooking and crafting. Mostly I make my own armor in games like Skyrim and cook my own potions after a busy day of hacking and slashing my way through various critters, guards and bandits in most any WRPG game.
If you're into a threesome or foursome with a mature couple, then come join us - only be sure to bring a med kit. We're old, sometimes we fall down and can't get back up without some help!
