    I'm going extremely well thus far, a grand total of 80 squids for the first 6 months. Though I am probably going to bite the bullet on a PRO before the end of the year.

      Spider-Man Pro?
      The upcoming Spider-Man game may be getting a PS4 Pro bundle of its own when it swings into release in September.

            A rather expensive July for me... Totally unplanned purchase of an Xbox One X pushing it over £500!!

            Still, August is way quiet. Only Yakuza Kiwami 2 if memory serves.

            Then September is purely Spider-Man.

            Chance to clear some backlog.

              £80! That’s a bit better... although to be fair my sales have covered most of the year’s spending so far. And I can’t believe half the year has already gone, that's crazy. Anyway...

              July
              £482 - £300 refund = £182

              August

              PlayStation
              Had some PSN credit left so I downloaded Metal Slug to check out what the ACA titles are like. Looks like I’m going to need at least another £50 voucher.

              Purchased a new Asus 1440p monitor to use with the OSSC, but that didn’t work out so it went back this afternoon.

              I decided to cancel my order for the CPS2 Multi, so that’s a good £300 back from last month. I also cancelled my pre-order for SNK Heroines, I was starting to have doubts and then the Terry reveal was the final nail. So that’s another £110 back in my account.

              Got a £50 voucher... Windjammers, KoF’98 UM and Soccer Brawl.

              Sold lots and lots of things... and purchased a nice new white Vita for £155 and 4 quid on an microSD card adapter.

              After the 500million PS4 debacle, I cancelled all my preorders with Amazon and ended up with account credit that needed using. Got another £50 PSN voucher, of which £20 went on Vbucks, and I’m still £51.88 in credit.

              Sold another £1730 of stuff so I’ve about broken even with the year’s spending so far and I still have mountains of crap to get through.

              Oh and Shikhondo: Soul Eater Limited Edition was £30.

                I missed a July update?

                July 2018 - £0.00
                Hit the nail on the head with this one, happy days but...

                August 2018 - £79.50
                Caved spending on cheap Burnout Paradise Remastered and Detroit caused a rise, plus paid preorder for next months Tomb Raider. With that paid for though, Sept should be clear.

                  PlayStation
                  Got the boy a Hori T.A.C. Four keypad/mouse controller thingy for Fortnite - £70, but half of that was Amazon credit.

                  Including shipping and customs fees I suppose Psyvariar Delta was £60. I also got a couple of Super Famicom repros, but I’m intending to sell those and get back as much of the 100 quid as possible.

                  Also got the Beat ‘em Up Bundle for £15.99 and another £50 voucher for Mega Man 11 next week.

                    I'm quite pleased with myself in that I've actually kept up with this.

                    Not looking too bad really.

                    From a remainder of the year perspective there's nothing else on the horizon for me.

                    I've got a couple of months Game Pass for Xbox to cover playing Forza Horizon 4 and, with it being a Sqeenix game, Shadow of the Tomb Raider will be half price or less within weeks of launch.

                      September 2018:

                      £43.00 - Proving a clear month rarely is. There are things I plan to get in Oct but I have CEX credit so hopefully that will cover it all rather than cash

                        Not actually that bad for September.

                        October is going to be very quiet. Got a month trial of Xbox Game Pass to play FH4 and I'm not bothered by CoD this year as there's no SP campaign.
