Your Gaming Spend - 2015 Edition

[Cheeseman Battitude]

The recent sales have been a bit of a killer for me. ?317 this month.

[kryss]

Holy crap, just realised it's July.
With my 2 amiibos:

June
$38.99

THREAD WON.

[Neon Ignition]

End of July total was ?60 so a nice enough drop off. With any luck August should be even cheaper thanks to the WiiU going.

[kryss]

1000yen for badge-hunting, digital pre-orders of Journey and Galak-Z on PS4. $15 of shmps on sale too maybe?
Not a bad July for spending.

[Neon Ignition]

Advanced orders kept costs down this month and the total for August is ?46.00

I think I'm going to leave Forza 6 for the backlogue pile as the sim racer type has been burnt out I feel so stumping ?50 up feels like a miss for now. With that in mind I should have a low cost month in Sept

[kryss]

August $84.45
A-Train 3DS [3DS] $26.24 (points)
Ryu+Castle [WiiU+3DS] $7.60-something (points)
$20 PSN credit
SRW BX [3DS] $64.45
LEGO Movie the Videogame [PS4] $7.80 (points)
de Blob 2 [PS3] $1.50 (points)

[Cepp]

Just added everything up and I've spent more than I thought so far...

[Neon Ignition]

September total matched August at ?46.
Not sure how October will fall, potentially not too high or if it does it will be to keep November low.

[Neon Ignition]

So October went high but it should be fine as the rest of the years releases are paid up already. Total - ?143.50

[QualityChimp]

A lot of people have to update their totals in this thread!

I'm embarrassed, looking back, how I'm nearly up to a ton and how few of the games I've bought I've played.

[Neon Ignition]

November total - ?136.50

High again really but most of it was on the jxd unit. Famous last words but even factoring in sales, not sure there's anything in Dec I want so should be a low one.

[Wools]

I gave up recording my spend after March because I was buying so little but it went mad in the late summer as I was desperate for new games!

I sold my PS4 as to all intents and purposes, Sony took money from me. My brother later showed me that because I brought another 3 month code, that purchase supersedes any decision about auto-renew you've made and turns auto renew back on... Still, had enough of being charged several times unexpectedly so sold the system. I also brought a Wii U purely because of Super Mario Maker and got a Xbox One because it had more games I'm interested in than the PS4.

So, after expecting it was going to be a cheap year, it's turned out to be a fairly expensive one! The figures below are now longer accurate for April - November but it's fairly close.

2015 Total So Far: ?934.84

April - November - ?580
Halo 5 - ?32
Xbox One + Forza 6 - ?299
Wii U Super Mario Maker Bundle - ?249

March - ?14.99
Wolfenstein: The New Order - Occupied Edition - ?14.99

February - ?14.85
Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition - ?14.85

January - ?325
PlayStation 4 Bundle - ?250
PS+ 3 Month - ?12
Grand Theft Auto V - ?35
Orb 3M USB Controller Charging Cable - ?4
Battlefield 4 - ?24

Totals for Previous Years
Total for 2012 - ?822.92
Total for 2011 - ?746.69
Total for 2010 - ?1776

[Neon Ignition]

Okay, looks like I can tally my December spend which has come in at ?54.00

Adding this to the rest of the year gives me an end of year final total of ?974.10

Finally, just under the ?1k maker and a new low spend year, if still much higher than would be ideal. Getting there year by year

[jamesy]

Just finished counting mine up today and it came to a total of ?1050! Considering the amount I've actually spent playing the games I've bought this year that's way too much. i have a hefty back list to get through so hopefully I don't get too carried away this year!

Time to tally up your totals and start again in the 2016 gaming spend thread!
