Ah.. so you're the type of guys that like the sentimental feel of a new fresh game of a great series.. I know how ya feel..

I do have a bit of the collector in me, yes. :)


 

ahh yes, I have the same thing hence, I get so worked up when I buy a used game and the previous owner treated it like crap... drives me nuts..

I usually just don't buy used games. >_>

The only used games I have bought were MGS1 and DBZ: Budokai 2. The only reason I got BDZ used was because the dumass GameStop employee brought out a used copy, even though I never once said I wanted a used copy. It was a crowded store, I didn't feel like arguing, and it was only DBZ afterall, so I just checked otu and left.


I always pre order. I know when games are coming out so I throw down $10au and save the rest. Helps the budget. I preordered my ps3 for a yr. I never by used games, unless it's rare. I buy all the games I want to collect, the rest I wait til they are platinum or really cheap. The latest thing I'm doing is pre ordering at EB (as you get cool items i.e. I got a Aluminum Case for Assassins Creed) and then I wait for a catalog and EB match the price. Here in Aust, Big W (department store) sell there ps3/xbox games for $88au, where as EB and others sell for retail which is $100 - $120au. That can be a saving of up to $40 odd. Now I get good pre ordered items (collectors items) and the cheaper price.


I usually pre-order games now, but a 4-5 years ago I couldn't afford jack sh*t, lol.


tell me about it, but now that I'm working I have more money for game but of course less time to play them, ah well.

I guess a gamers dream would be to be unemplayed, be payed for it, and enjoy life and games, one can dream such awesome dreams.


Funnily enough I haven't worked in almost six months, yet I can still afford to buy stuff (for the most part, I haven't picked up Uncharted yet).

I need to get another job man.  I worked at LSU's Rec Center last spring semester, but I came home over the summer and transferred to UNO so I could stay home, and haven't been able to find a job since.  Not that I'd want one, since all my lessons and concerts etc. have been taking up loads of time.

It pisses me off, because it seems like I have a lot of busy work to do now that just wastes my time.  I have little time for work or games, hell, even guitar practicing.  I spend all my time practicing the jazz crap they want me to practice, and have little time for the stuff I like.  I had been losing some of speed because I couldn't practice my finger exercises, etc. but now that I'm off for Christmas, I've been practicing the good stuff like mad, lol.
