So, I recently expanded my gaming collection again, since I had the money. Watch as I egotistically brag about the ill-advised purchases.

Mega Man X7: I've been on a Mega Man binge lately, and I got the chance to get X7, so I went ahead. I know it's known as a bad game, but I'm willing to give it a shot.

Mega Man X8: Kind of the same with X7, but I haven't heard much bad about it. I'd also like to be able to have played all the Mega Man X games to date if/when Mega Man X9 comes out. In a so-so condition Hollywood Video case.

Mega Man 8: It's in pretty bad condition, but it was only two dollars. Case is beat up, missing the manual, but I didn't have a copy of it so why not?

Donkey Konga: It was cheap, and I got the bongos controller from a garage sale years ago for dirt cheap, with the only damage being minor mouse damage on the cord. Figured since it was a few bucks I might as well get the game so I can actually use the bongos controller.

Not in the picture: Basketball for the Atari 2600. Was at a thrift store. Was cheap. Why not?

Also, not in the picture: Jak X: Combat Racing. Because cheap.
