BUT MAN I WANT THAT JACKET.
Just to say it you know?
I was the guy who bought the jacket.
Nice contributions. The game will be the game, it will be over in 25+ hours I suspect. The memories you have it will live on, as they have for us these last 16 years.
The official jacket is gaming history, if you buy it you own real gaming history. I'm not even sure it should be worn anymore so to keep it's state for as long as possible. But as leather it should be looked after properly. The value of the jacket will always be what you impress upon it until you sell it and the next person to shove money at you to buy it.
