This month, I bought 226 PC games for C$185.82 ($134.58)

Now are those a lot of games? Yes, it's a silly amount of games. Perhaps I'm addicted to good deals that deliver fun.

We all have a vice, and this is mine. I don't drink, or smoke, or gamble -- but I buy lots and lots of video games.

Though back when I was a console gamer, I'd might get eight games for that price -- if I were lucky.

Of their current Warhammer sale Epic 40K Final Liberation is easily my favorite. Such a neat little tactical game. Dawn of War I is also an all-timer.

But that is part of it for me. You do the "get it while it's cheap" thing long enough you start to run out of things that go cheap. Once you have a library in the thousands a lot of these things that go on sale frequently start getting off the board.

I guess if you keep it as tight as you do and put a cap on either a very high percent discount or a very low total cost you take longer to get to that point.
