Nominus, my dear lad, you have fantastic taste in games.
I can't remember much, myself. But I'll go through the important stuff. Mostly the various transitions from PS to Xbox, then back, then back again.
Firstly, I got a free PS1 from a lodger after he left. I spammed the crap out of Nuclear Strike. A while later, I bought FF9. I still own this game, and that PS1. I will get rid of neither. Along with FF7, but that was only bought a year or so ago.
So, time went buy, and I played many games. Apocolypse, Ape Escape, FF9 about 20 times from beginning to end, and many others. I can't remember when or why or how, but eventually I got a PS2. I must've saved like a bastard for that.
PS2 went buy pretty much the same as the PS1. Lots of games, can't remember much. After a yearish of PSing, Halo 2 appeared. I'd played Halo at my friends house, and thought it brilliant. But it wasn't worth getting rid of the PS2. I remember doing a tally of games for the Xbox and PS2, and deciding which I liked more. However, when Halo 2 came out (well, a year or so after actually) I traded in the PS2 and bought an Xbox. I simply didn't and don't have the money to have both.
Xbox was good. Fable and Halos blew my mind. Ish. Well, not really. But I'm onto a 360 now and I still have both. However, I got bored after a while, because the titles on the Xbox weren't all that special for me. So off went the Xbox, and back came the PS2.
The second PS2 marked the beginning of the time which I like to call "The Golden Age". FF12, Okami, Shadow of the Colossus were all played and kept for a very long time. Like Nom, I would just ride around and look at things of SotC. However, Halo 3 came out, and I had already been mesmerised by the Halo story.
So, onto a decision I still partially regret. A few months ago, off went the PS2 and games. Fair enough. Easily rebuyable. But, alas, in my frenzied excitement for getting the 360, and the fact that my tiny little wallet was crying, I also traded in the memory card. I kept that memory card when I bought the first Xbox, so I don't know why the buggery I got rid of it this time. Dumbass.
Anway, I'm still with the 360 and I'm happy. Lost Odyssey, the Halos, some old Xbox games, Force Unleashed, Oblivion, The Darkness and Ass Creed keep me satisfied. Actually that's a lie. Lost Odyssey and Oblivion keep me satisfied long term, whereas the others are a quick bang at the local or something. I just keep forgetting to trade in the others.
