    On Amazon Uk right now there are only a handful of collectors edition of MGSV for ps4, which are in the £200-£250 or so price range. (the original price of it was £100 in the UK from Game, if I recall correctly)

    Would this console and game be worth much in a few years? (MGSV )

    I was trying to make a point that if the items were Sealed ie still in cellophane/shrink wrap ie unopened with the seal unbroken wouldnt that make Eg 10/15 years down the line the red mgsv ps4 might not be hard to find, but what about a sealed one??? Also I would have thought the...

    When are you hoping to sell it? How much is it worth now/ will it be worth in future? (If you know)

    Would this console and game be worth much in a few years? (MGSV )

    No I didnt buy them to keep them sealed. I may keep them sealed or maybe buy another of each (if I can; they are hard to get in the UK) and keep a sealed pair for future resale (game and console). Or I may do neither... I am a perfectionist and a huge MGS fan- it will almost pain me to break...

    Would this console and game be worth much in a few years? (MGSV )

    Hello all I have ordered one of the limited edition red mgsv:tpp ps4 consoles and a copy of the collectors edition of MGSV:TPP on ps4 (which was damn hard to get). Out of interest, do you think that both of the items, if they were kept, sealed and unused, they would be worth a lot of money...

    PC Gamers- doesn't it bother you that you dont 'own' games on Steam?

    How does it keep them from doing anything stupid? Valve tried to introduced paid mods then reversed it due to community not liking it.- I applaud them for that. I also applaud Valve for introducing refunds to Steam, the inability to get a refund for games purchased on Steam was a major issue...

    PC Gamers- doesn't it bother you that you dont 'own' games on Steam?

    Forgive my ignorance but.... I already knew that I dont "own" the Windows OS that I use, and also most software on my PC. As far as games go, I have physical disc versions of console games which I have bought over the past two decades- I didnt code them myself, but I thought that I do...

    PC Gamers- doesn't it bother you that you dont 'own' games on Steam?

    Hello I have recently got into PC gaming after years of console gaming. PC gamers tend to talk about having cheaper games than consoles/better graphics/better frame rates etc etc etc One thing that never really gets mentioned, but concerns me is that you don't 'own' the game. What I mean is...

    Does PC gaming work well on a large TV?

    In your opinion, how good is g-sync? Is it worth paying the high price tag to get a monitor with g sync? If g sync is the next big thing its a pity no TVs have it/a pity they dont make g sync monitors over 40"

    Does PC gaming work well on a large TV?

    I thought that PC games were designed to be played close to the screen ie at a desk with mouse and keyboard, therefore the HUD would be smaller

    New to PC gaming, advice needed on how to upgrade my PC to play upcoming games

    That card is "factory overclocked" what does that mean? What implications would the factory overclocking on that card have for me? I have never overclocked before, im a bit concerned as I thought I could potentially damage my pc components by doing it.
