I've decided to get rid of my video games. I haven't touched them in years, and I feel bad having them boxed up.

There's some good ones over there. If interested, see the entire list here.

One that I had an especially hard time parting with is Ico for Playstation 2. For anyone who knows about this game, you know it was a true game changer.

Okay, I've got to go get the tissues...I'm got something in my eye...

Resident Evil 2 just went up a penny.

The Suffering is the real gamer-changer.

That is a damn good one too. That came out right as I was shifting away from video games and really getting into writing. My college roommate at the time bought it for xbox. I vividly remember turning in a few shitty papers because I was up all night watching him play that.

There's a question: is anyone else here the type that could watch someone play a game with almost as much satisfaction as actually playing the game him/herself?

Depends on the game, but yeah.

Especially when it's a game I suck at (first or third person, super open games like Oblivion/Morrowind) and they're good at.

As with ireLocus, it depends on the game, really.

If it's a storyline based game then I would have to play it myself. Guitar Hero-esque games I don't mind watching but at the same time hate playing.

Your game list looks a lot like the one I got rid of minus a few changes. More RPGs and more GC and Zelda games.

Hell no! I have to push them off and figure the game out for myself. It's never fun just watching which is why I can never understand why putting on a football game would be fun.

I've always been content to watch. Maybe it's the voyeur in me.

Now, I'm REALLY crying my childhood away. I just put up some Super Nintendo games for auction. I'll bet some of my fellow culties are into vintage games (I feel old calling them "vintage")

Check them out here, if you want.

The prize in this lot is a COMPLETE Super Metroid game, with box, manual, and cartridge sleeve. Damn, I'm going to miss this one. This game is, and probably will always be, my favorite game ever.

Should one of you win this one, treat it well.

I'm going to be getting rid of my Playstation2 and Gamecube console as well, along with a bunch of DVDs. I'm clearing my life out.
