it seems like wherever it is my collection gets posted there is always someone that doesn't get it. i can see not getting collecting but ... idk people.

take this comment i got on deviantART:
... Why throw away money on different regional versions? Different cover, ok, but that you could easily find on the internet and print.
there is a lot of things i could have said to this. a lot. "just printing it" isn't the same. it won't be the same quality, not to mention you can't even find decent size scans of most of the covers anyway. maybe for PAL/NA but probs not for japan...and probably not the inside of the insert, or the manual.

not to mention i don't even have a printer.

i replied with this though:
I'll "throw my money away" on whatever I damn well please. :U

There is more to regional copies than just the cover, and there is more to being a collector than just "throwing money away". Everyone's got a hobby.
that's right.

there is really no point in trying to explain these things to people sometimes. lol. at least this person says it to me and not on a forum where they don't think i'll find it. :D

ah, also the artbook isn't coming out in August... I expected as much because I hadn't seen any news from the publisher yet and August is fast approaching. Amazon changed the date to Dec 6th 2011...which if that is the date is funny because its the same day the comic collective book is coming out. At least I get more infamoose at the end of the year then, eh? lol my christmas gifts to myself. :b

also gives me more time to save up money for it all :3

tl;dr: collecting is srs bsns and infamous is my life.
