This man has every PS2 game in America, still wrapped
Most of us prefer to unwrap and play the video games we purchase, but many people buy games to collect. Ahans76, one user at PlayStation Collecting, is one of those people, and now claims that he has every single PS2 game released in America – still wrapped in original packaging and in mint condition.
PlayStation Collecting interviewed Ahans76 about his collection of close to 1,800 PlayStation 2 games, all completely sealed and stored carefully in a series of bookshelves. According to the interview, Ahans76 started off buying a few games here and there and had no intention of becoming a collector, but he just fell into it.
The PlayStation 2 is his favorite console, and while he doesn’t disclose exactly how many games are in his collection or how much the total collection cost him to build, he did mention that the PS2 isn’t the only console he collects for. He also collects titles for the PSP and the Neo Geo, with the Neo Geo being the current focus of his collection.
Another thing worth noting is that while all of the games Ahans76 has are sealed, that’s not the only criteria he has for the games in his collection. For example, they all have to be first editions, meaning no second editions, re-releases, and no “greatest hits” versions are on his shelves. If a game was an exclusive of some kind, he had to get that version.
That’s incredible dedication, and an even bigger investment, especially in games that will never see the inside of a console. Even so, it’s an great museum of sorts to the glory days of the PlayStation 2, and its monetary value likely pales in comparison to the sense of satisfaction Ahans76 has for completing his collection.
