All things belonging to the good ol’ PlayStation 1
I have a small confession to make: this is a culmination of two weeks worth of games. I was unable to get my Sunday Roundup done last week on time, and as you’ll see I had plenty of games to put together a solid week’s worth of titles for you all. But one thing lead to another and I wasn’t able to publish my weekly article. But fear not! The Sunday Roundup has not gone away, and it is back, better than ever. Or at least it’s back. Being better is totally subjective.

A game from Indiana, a game from Illinois, a game I’ll likely never play, and a heck of a lot of Skylander’s toys make up this week’s haul. It may be small, but I was happy with the quality and price of each piece this week.

Games, games, and more games!
I said last time that I couldn’t recall any other instance where I came into possession of more games in one week, but it would appear I have outdone myself already. This week I found games from all over the place, and received a few at excellent prices from a friend looking to get rid of them! And this marks the first time where I’ve ever purchased video games from a convention (Gen Con Indy, to be exact), and that is something I’m definitely going to look into more. Let’s get into things then. (more…)
This might be a record, folks. I don’t think I’ve every purchased this many games in one week. Not only that, but several of these games are highlights. Some are special because they are near and dear to my heart, some are special because they are hard to find gems, and some still are special because I was able to score them for a ridiculously good price. And I bought some crappy games for good measure. Come on, you didn’t think I’d leave you with your mouth hanging open with every game I bought, did you?

After a nonexistent Sunday Roundup last week, things are back the way I prefer them to be this week, with a handful of new titles. And a game that I’ve been meaning to buy for months now. With a special story to boot!

1000.
And then some more for good measure.
As stated last week, I was just one game away from making it to 1000 games in my ever-expanding collection of games-I-hope-to-play-someday-but-will-likely-never-get-around-to-playing. Well this week that milestone was finally, after 10 years of collecting, achieved. And here they are…

I’m so close. So close to my 1000th game. Actually, I couldn’t be any closer: this week I acquired 11 new titles, and that eleventh title was my 999th overall.
I was out shopping with my girlfriend in Indianapolis and found most of these titles. Sure, there were plenty of games that I wanted to grab as well as the ones I did, but something was holding me back. Some sort of feeling that my 1000th has to be something special. Regardless, I should be receiving a new title to review this week as well, making that my 1000th. Time will tell, but for now, here’s this week’s haul.

It’s been a slow month with new games, but assuredly as the sun rises they keep trickling into my collection. This week sees just one new title, but it packs two different games. And games are “arcade classics.” Or so the box claims.

What can be better than owning a ton of video games?
Owning a one video game that has a TON of video games all packed in to one disc!
The game compilation is an ideal way for publishers to re-release games and have gamers pay for them all over again, but it is also a great way for gamers to experience titles they may have missed or otherwise skipped over from years past. While some packages are just thrown together without any thought, others are done well and are deserving of your dollar. Here is my list of video game compilations that are very much worth checking out.

Castlevania: You love killing all demonic creatures and have a thing for whips.
Left 4 Dead: You think zombies are alright and welcome the apocalypse if it means you can blast the living dead to pieces with a shotgun.
