It's simply for personal derivatives and nothing more. It's definitely worth more than just an investment. It's more like a culture and that can't be sold that easily for any reason whatsoever.

The one I know to well that can serve me well as an investment, is the one which I bought as a hard copy, because I can resell it or exchange it for another game.

Head_Hunter Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 (edited) Majority of my games are CDs, the digital version of my PS4 games is '56. Whereas I got about 74 CDs for my PS4. Majority of them are gift from my pals, and some I got them through fairly used purchased from my favourite local gaming store.

What makes it more interesting is the kind of games that are there, how far back they are dated and it's still in one piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can easily save all your games on CDs, although the only challenge would be if they would still be playable over years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, when your backlog is moving bigger, it shows you're in progress with video games, that's a spirit of a true gamer, being consistent in loading up more games.

Imagine having games that are 40 years back dated still in your catalog inventory.... It's not something that most people can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I can play even the one that has lasted over 50 years, provided it is worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that playing the first part of the game that's been around for 50 years is definitely going to be a bit of a chore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, not something everyone can do, only those who are preservative enough can do such kind of magnificent job of preserving their video game/console for such number of years.

I have good reasons to believe that there are some gamers who would still find the first game on that very entertaining for them to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My ex is a classic gamer and it still amazes me the kind of games she still gets into and you would see that she likes it a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
