How much have you spent on this gen?

I got no clue. I know that the amount of games I paid $60 for isn't as high as the ones I bought for less. I would say somewhere around a grand.
About 5000 $ on Ps3 (bought 3 ps3`s, first an older 60 GB model then when that stopped working I bought a Slim model for myself and one for my little sister, last time counted that was at least more then a ear ago was 50 + games, not all full price tho)
On the Wii I have not used very much, used about 250-300 $ (only have a few games, stopped playing after about half a year)
Since my country uses other currency I have compared to dollar (it is a bit more expensive in my country)
Now if takes the cost of pc gaming together with this then becomes very much (have at least 200 pc games bought this gen, mostly steam sales and have bought two computers within that time).

I only have a 360. I have a PC too but I'm not going to count that.
I have about 35 games that I bought for $60 so that's $2100. Then when you add in the console plus some arcade games and other digital downloads, I'd say about $2,500.

We bought 3 360's, 1 PS3 and three Wii's and I have no idea how many games I've bought for the family over the years. I currently have about 70 Xbox 360 games sitting on my shelf and about 10 PS3 games and those are the ones we kept, the last three years I haven't been keeping as many games and have been turning around and selling some of them on Amazon. I also have shipped off about 30 games or so to my nephew who is stationed in Alaska. So I'd say it is safe to say I've spent a lot and I don't really want to think about just how much! 
Conservative guess, around 6K. I have played like 200 games. Most of which were bought. So averaged that out to ÂŁ25 a game = ÂŁ5k plus another Grand on live subs, controllers, DLC...etc.
That is only xbox too. I have PS3, had a wii and I PC game too.

Same . Then online subs , dlc I would say $5,000+ easy . This gen has seen my highest game attachment rate also to the point my backlog is f*ckin ridiculous . I will definitively have more self control next gen and not pour so much money into this hobby .
Maybe tonight I'll come up with an estimate but it will be hard as I trade in almost every game I own. For the 360 I've owned about 170 retail and arcade games but only have like 10 retail at most right now. But again most of those were purchased from trade-ins so it would be really hard to guess.
I would say with both consoles, including BB replacement plans for 4 consoles, subcriptions, rage broken controllers, etc I'd definitely be around the 10k area.
Now that I think of it... just wtf. 10k could have come in handy for a lot more important things.... Too bad it's not going to change for this generation though.
