With all those games, he's never going to play them all. So this more about collecting as opposed to playing. To each his own I guess.Quote:

But that could be said about people who just buy games when they have steam sales.Quote:

You don't have to use things to be a collector. How often do you think a stamp collector uses stamps from his collection for sending mail? :pQuote:
