Yeah, I’m fully aware that this isn’t news. However, I know this will be of interest to some of you, purely because of the scale of the achievement. Over on PlayStation Collecting an interview has taken place with ‘Ahans76’, a person who has collected every NTSC PS2 game ever made.
Oh, and they are all sealed. Crazy.

i’d love a collection like that, but unopened?
seems like such a waste to me, people put in all those hours creating something and he doesn’t even open the box.
i mean, without opening them all he’s really got is a collection of game covers.
i collect comics, i have a few thousand,not a big collection but then with little funds i’ve had to build it slowly.
i may keep them bagged and boarded to protect them, but i make sure i can open them to read them if i want.
i couldn’t stand to see them all slabbed, that’s where they sent away graded and sealed in plastic boxes that can’t be opened without breaking them.
they’re meant to be read.
still if this is what makes that guy happy the more power to him.
if you want to see a huge collection of game, check out the latest AVGN video on gametrailers.
that guy must have thousands, i doubt even he knows how many he has.

That is MASSIVE. I am a collector myself but not this lol. I collect Alien, Predator, Spawn and a few games figures/figurines/bust
Also collected SPAWN commics Issue 1 (yes the very first one) to 100
They are worth double or triple the price you paid for and a little bit of a bonus if in sealed or never opened!
I love collecting figures can’t get enough lol. That is amazing collection of games. But imagine in the future say 5 years, all the games will be digital download on PS4 and it has no disc tray. What if I wanted to play Resident Evil and it’s not for digital download only disc for my PS3 or PS2 (If working that is) He will make a ridiculous prize for say £60 I would be a fool to buy but I am that desperate lol!!!!

damn my spelling commics – comics
and prize – price
FAIL!

I know as a collector keeping things sealed means they’ll be worth more money down the road, but games? Do you really think games are going to be worth a lot more than their original RRP in years to come? Not that he’s likely to sell them but he might make a little bit of profit but I don’t think it would be anything tremendous.

I agree – I think this was proven when a NES with every title sold on eBay last year for not very much really

That’s my point (on page 1).
Sure a sealed collection is worth more than unsealed but I very much doubt he’ll ever get his money back anyway, let alone make a profit. This is PS2 we are talking about. The games aren’t exactly rare.
