No. 3: Collecting Things

If you like collecting things, then boy is this the franchise for you. It taps into the collector in each one of us and dips a hand into your wallet without even an word of protest from you. You want every game, every card, every toy, every Pokemon.

We guess it is built into the slogan for the whole thing, but these games are a nightmare for anyone going for 100% completion. But where there is a nightmare, there is a challenge to overcome and that doesn't stop people from trying. Collecting is innate in gamers and we tend to enjoy it. Whether it be special edition game releases or every artifact in Uncharted, we want to find it all and experience it all. Pokemon was one of the first games that encouraged us to keep looking and keep exploring to see if we could find and catch them all. Even if they insisted on making hundreds more of the little buggers.
