You totally only did that now so as not to fuck up next year's total.

There's no way I can 'beat' this year's total.

Jesus fuck

TheVision · **Posted:** Wed Dec 31, 2014 17:22

I'm not done yet.. I've probably got another 40 or 50 quid to add. I'll get on that later.

krazywookie · **Posted:** Wed Dec 31, 2014 19:40

Yeah, I've been meaning to update too. Still wont beat American Nativity though.

The other question is how close you were to your initial estimate - i went over mine (guessed at 300-400)

I just forgot to post my purchases in here as usual, though with no hardware purchases (does an iPad count, when it's mostly used for non-gaming?) it was only a couple of hundred quid.

I need to add <109.77> to bring it in line with my spreadsheet.

This includes Geometry Wars 3, Strider, some Dreamcast games, Viewtiful Joe 2 and loads of other things.

I guessed between £800 and £1000 so I'm spot on!

Looking at my estimate for the year gone by I've come in pretty far under what I predicted (£650 vs £442.06) but I know why. My prediction assumed the purchase of a PS4 and a PS+ sub on top of the same general spend as the previous year. However, not only did I not bother with the ps+ sub yet but I spent all of 2014 playing the backlog of games I'd bought during 2013. That dropped my general spend down to some indie PC games and the odd Android thing (the latter also impacted by all the free Amazon store credit I got in the scam at the start of the year) which makes sense of the 'shortfall'.
