    I am afraid to add it all up. It makes me cry a little bit because I used to be so thrifty *sniff* now I just spend, spend, spend.

    Spent quite a bit...

    $426.67 AU

    Bought the Touch (first gen) just so I could play the games on it :p (just after the App Store went live...). Started off buying quite a bit, but have now slowed down - visit this site quite regularly, before making a purchase ;)

    Crom,

    Put the Pipe down.
    Back away slowly.
    Get some fresh air.
    It will be ok.

    Don't even want to begin to think how much money I have dropped for this little hobby here.

    But hey, if it's of any consolation -- I spent a high multiplier of that on console games and my photography gear.

    There is always a way of making myself feel a bit better about my purchases.


    Cheers

    That much in 2 days? Did you have time to actually play any of those apps you've purchased? 2 days and $218 sounds like the only two things you've been doing the past two days is a little bit of sleep and a whole lot of buy button pressing. :p


    Cheers

    It's been about a month and two days. I have played some more than others. I've only spent 20 minutes total with SimCity. Which was the one to pop my cherry on iPhone games.

    D'oh. I somehow still think we're in February! My apologies.

    Had the same thing happen to me with SimCity. Bought it on release day, played for a good few hours, then dropped it in favor of many games of smaller scale that did not require so much attention.

    I've spent $102... if you only count what I don't regret.

    $108 if you count everything :)

    Soon to be a bit higher...

    (And it comes to about 50 cents per day I find. About $15/month. I can live with that when I'm getting this much value from my apps.)

    You don't want to know how much we've spent. :) Maybe a 25:1 ratio of games played to games written up...
