honestly you are my favorite youtuber! please keep posting videos! your energy, aesthetic, interests, and video content and style is exactly what i’m drawn to.
The Official Xbox Magazines were great! I used to love the demo disks that were included. Also, the idea of reading a review and comparing it sounds like a great idea for a series.
I started a gameinformer collection. I have 242 right now and stoked on it. Each magazine serves as a timepiece on how part of the gaming community felt in the past. Its great
John I enjoy your videos. Your vibes are always excellent and I find you content just as enjoyable as the 100k retro retro collecting/nostalgia channels.
Just found your channel man love your videos and your passion for video games when I’m watching it’s like chilling with a old friend talking video games thanks man
I really enjoyed the long form vid today. It felt like l spent the afternoon chilling with you. Played some PSP this afternoon also. After a few attempts at SERIOUS games, I ended up playing an old soccer game. Great pickups, hope your year ends on a high note.
Nice pickups! Ah GS with those BS "New" copies... it's so disappointing but I would have reacted the same way as you did. As long as they're not damaged like unplayable I wouldn't have been mad! Last week I've softmodded my Crystal OG Xbox and put a 2 TB hard drive in it and it went well! I'm now adding a bunch of emulators and roms and I can still play my disc based copies so I'm happy with that! The main reason behind it is that my friend lives in Australia and he sends me some PAL copies sometime and since it's now softmodded I can play them! I also got 4 games for the system during BF sale. I can't wait to see your Xbox unboxing vid! Great video and keep up the good work!
Thanks for watching Dan I appreciate you! Modded Crystal Xbox sounds awesome. I want to do that with one of mine, it would be cool to do it with my Halo edition but I might want to leave that one stock
Welcome back bro! Just staring the video. I already clicked like. Ha! Keep being you and doing these videos. I really look forward to them. Chris from Bloomington, MN. 💪👊😁
I was at Press Start that Saturday as well. Luckily I went in after the rush. I traded in some stuff and got $420 credit. Picked up Michael Jackson's Moonwalker, Tech Romancer and Project Justice with the B2G1.
I haven't ever tried ordering Gamestop games online and now I know not to order new ones which is a little unfortunate cause as much as I am not a fan of Gamestop they do have great sales sometimes. Great video and I can say that it would definitely be intriguing to see how you rate games in comparison to the Xbox magazines. Looking forward to the next one!
Gotta upgrade to gasket bins my man. I had some games I had to leave behind when moving across country and they got demoted to the shed which got damaged and flooded and not a single game was damaged, and it was one of the only bins to survive unscathed.
First off thanks for the vids, I enjoy them and there always nice and chill. Second, I picked up Psychonauts 2 off of Woot for PS4, I think it was only $25 and the nice thing is it’s gonna be sealed. It goes in and out of stock but they have it in stock currently.
I can’t believe you opened those Oreos after the seller went through so much trouble to ensure that they arrived in pristine condition! 😫😂 (broken collector brain)
Awesome video! Always enjoy your cozy, chill vibes. Pro Tip for Gunvalkyrie: The right joystick is inverted and you can't change the controls in game :/ But if you play it on Series X, you can set your controller to inverted in the console settings, so that you can play the game not inverted. 👍
I got xbox magazine issue 2. Framed it. Michaels sells a great cheap glass frame. Also Bought a third party energy sword (its like metal rainbow color) and put it on the wall next to it. The frames are called basics by studio decor. Tight fit but looks awesome.
Syndicate is awesome. Not sure if you have it, but if you ever run into a copy of Binary Domain for a cheap price get it. It’s an awesome futuristic 3rd person shooter on the 360/ps3 that I bet would be your vibe. I replayed it recently and just thought id share a recommendation
I think I commented this on a different vid of yours before, but R4 is the GOAT of the Ridge Racer games imo! If you haven't got to play it yet, just you wait pal, you're in for a good time. I just made a vid on my channel playing it with a steering wheel if you're interested in checking that out. keep the good stuff coming :)
Everyone hates their gamestop. And i totally get it, but man i love mine😂. The guys that work there are awesome. Never give me anything open...and i get promotional posters all the time. I also get all the promo stuff...they even hold my pre orders for however long i need them too. So i get it cuz there is a bigger one closer to my house that's annoying. But ive built up such a great friendship with these guys so they look out for me. Even the Nintendo rep that comes by there has given me stuff before adter catching him at the store and chatting with him a few times. I probably only got stuff from the Nintendo rep cuz im the top buyer at that store 😂. But my buddies are awesome at my gamestop.
i like your crt i have a toshiba crt 29 inch wide screen i use for my n64 and gamecube and ps1 and ps2 im a gamer i have one of each console i love nes and snes our prized possession
Sorry about the gamestop opened BS, thats a big FU to the customer. I've been to there website and its terrible. Prices aren't always the best, lottery with what you get, and then it will show shit available but you have to get it from a store in god knows who.
Yeah I absolutely hate their website, especially the availability stuff. The only reason to get anything from there is they sometimes have decent sales
I had an awesome time chilling with Collector John. Shout out to Collector John.
Thanks 4 chillin my dude

Always happy to see a new collector John vid posted. As a fellow deranged collector, this is my favorite gaming channel.
Haha glad you can relate. Thanks for watching!
Awesome video, can’t wait to see more Xbox pickups
you are so right about those ridge racer soundtracks. also great pickups. now i gotta check out gun valkyrie.
I started a gameinformer collection. I have 242 right now and stoked on it. Each magazine serves as a timepiece on how part of the gaming community felt in the past. Its great
Great video, kept me entertained on my entire commute home from work. Glad you enjoy making these videos because I enjoy watching them. Happy Holidays
Thanks so much for the kind words ❤️
Excellent new video :3, greetings and I hope you are well John!

Great video John! Love these type of laid back pickup videos
That means a lot, thnx for watching!
I love your videos man, been here since 1k subs. It honestly makes me so happy to see you channel continuing to grow❤
Welcome back bro! Just staring the video. I already clicked like. Ha! Keep being you and doing these videos. I really look forward to them. Chris from Bloomington, MN. 💪👊😁
Thanks Chris, I appreciate you dude
Right back at you man. Sorry about your storage situation.
I was at Press Start that Saturday as well. Luckily I went in after the rush. I traded in some stuff and got $420 credit. Picked up Michael Jackson's Moonwalker, Tech Romancer and Project Justice with the B2G1.
Nice! It's an awesome store

Woohoo!you shared super - farewell. ;)
Yeah they tried sending me a used copy with no artwork when I bought brand new. Gamestop is disappointing most of the time.
No artwork is ridic and I would definitely return. At least these all had the original cases
Gotta upgrade to gasket bins my man. I had some games I had to leave behind when moving across country and they got demoted to the shed which got damaged and flooded and not a single game was damaged, and it was one of the only bins to survive unscathed.
What brand do you use?
@@collectorjohn9538 the sterilite ones are good, but can sometimes be hard to find. The container store ones are also top notch but more expensive
definitely one of my favorite youtubers - i didnt realize there were people who enjoyed this random nostalgia as much as i do - also a huge xbox guy
Right on! OG Xbox is where it's at. There are dozens of us
You reading the review of an official Xbox game and then playing it and sizing it up for 2023 sounds like an excellent idea.
Syndicate is AMAZING.
Thanks for sharing all this with us!
Fun video John! Always interesting to watch and listen to your game hunting stories. Very chill!
Man that's a stretch calling those games brand new 😅 is what it is. Great video John
I remember playing many hours of Halo 3 with a cold Mtn Dew Game Fuel.
First off thanks for the vids, I enjoy them and there always nice and chill. Second, I picked up Psychonauts 2 off of Woot for PS4, I think it was only $25 and the nice thing is it’s gonna be sealed. It goes in and out of stock but they have it in stock currently.
Nice that's a really good deal!
I can’t believe you opened those Oreos after the seller went through so much trouble to ensure that they arrived in pristine condition! 😫😂 (broken collector brain)
Resale value on the Xbox oreos tanked after I ate them 😤 I should've sent them in for grading instead of eating
@@collectorjohn9538 WATA graded Oreos, “opened, partially eaten” 8.5 A+
John, you might know but some ps1 greatest hits are more polished versions of the game. Jurassic Park lost world greatest hits has added check points.
Awesome video! Always enjoy your cozy, chill vibes.
Pro Tip for Gunvalkyrie: The right joystick is inverted and you can't change the controls in game :/ But if you play it on Series X, you can set your controller to inverted in the console settings, so that you can play the game not inverted. 👍
Man I always hate that but then I get used to it in about five minutes. Don't have a Series X unfortunately but that's a really cool feature
This was such a chill video thank you for making it❤
Thank you for watching I appreciate you
Glad you’re back man
Thanx dude 🙂
I got xbox magazine issue 2. Framed it. Michaels sells a great cheap glass frame. Also Bought a third party energy sword (its like metal rainbow color) and put it on the wall next to it. The frames are called basics by studio decor. Tight fit but looks awesome.
Love it
Ahhh yes the milk!!! A man of class right here 😂 naw but fr I was like that’s wassup he got the MILK!!!🥛 That’s a must with Oreos.
I don’t know if you ever got around to it, but Hades is super fun and addicting. I played it on series x and loved it.
this was......ultra noice....
Syndicate is awesome. Not sure if you have it, but if you ever run into a copy of Binary Domain for a cheap price get it. It’s an awesome futuristic 3rd person shooter on the 360/ps3 that I bet would be your vibe. I replayed it recently and just thought id share a recommendation
Do not have it but another game that seems right up my alley! Thanks for the rec 😁
Binary Domain is awesome! Amazing sci fi story, some chessy dialogue and surpringly fun gameplay! Doubling down on this recommendation
Your videos are so comfy i don't know why, they're also bad for me though because i start buying more games every time you upload...
Just discovered you today and i already like you brother 👊💯
woo new collector jawn vid
Appreciate u dawg
I think I commented this on a different vid of yours before, but R4 is the GOAT of the Ridge Racer games imo! If you haven't got to play it yet, just you wait pal, you're in for a good time. I just made a vid on my channel playing it with a steering wheel if you're interested in checking that out. keep the good stuff coming :)
40:24 world's biggest 11.99 price tag, hades is awesome
Can't wait to play it!
The legend returns! 😈
😈😈😈
@@collectorjohn9538hope you’re doing well, dude. You got some good pickups. That doom 3 and halo 3 though.👀
Hi Collector John I Hope Those Oreo Releases In Stores In United States Sometime In The Future
Me too!
Don't worry Collector John, I didn't skip.
Appreciate you not skipping 🥲

That's awesome, I'm sure any of us would love a GameStop like this
i like your crt i have a toshiba crt 29 inch wide screen i use for my n64 and gamecube and ps1 and ps2 im a gamer i have one of each console i love nes and snes our prized possession
How much trauma came back when he said I’ll be back going to get the milk I was wondering if he was ever gonna come back
I'll always be back with the milk don't worry
Dude I need a gaming buddy. You're about 1hr from me
"Collector", but buys "new" games from Gamestop like an absolute rube.
what crt tv is that?
Sorry about the gamestop opened BS, thats a big FU to the customer. I've been to there website and its terrible. Prices aren't always the best, lottery with what you get, and then it will show shit available but you have to get it from a store in god knows who.

Love the videos, keep it up! Hope the soup was good
It was great, thanks for watching
