Chill with the expletives.
I'm a sucker for sales, and tend to buy just about anything that goes 50% off or more. I have a lot of packages of stuff in there, like the indie pack, rockstar pack, total war pack, Silent Hunter pack, and stuff that came in 2 packs as well. I got stuff like Saints Row 2 for $5, Assassin's Creed for $10... Half Life 2 came free with an ATI Radeon card. I only have maybe 6 games on there I bought at full price, including Dragon Age: Origins, Mass Effect 2, and Borderlands. For the most part I haven't been disappointed by anything I've picked up... Maybe Borderlands. I wish I hadn't shelled out $60 on it. Without any friends online to Co-Op it with me it really wasn't worth the full price of admission.
And besides that I just love owning games. I took a picture a couple of years ago of most of the games I owned CD copies of from as far back as Sega CD and I think I counted around 50 games. People get all crazy over achievement points on Xbox Live, but for me it's rights of ownership to games that I can get great deals on. It's nice to be able to go back and just re-download an old game once in a while instead of having to fumble around all of my drawers looking for discs and hoping I can find a CD key.
