Around the Network

My cousin let me borrow a game back in the 90s and my next door neighbor asked to borrow it from me for a day. When I went to get it back he said "It's gone, okay!". I felt pretty shitty about that.

I loaned and bought a lot of games for my little sister during the Xbox 360 generation. Mostly games like Dance Dance Revolution or Street Fighter IV when I'd buy a better version. One day we were going to play Peggle and we discovered that all of her game cases were empty. She rarely played so there was no idea when the games were taken but I have my guesses who took them and why.



Once, one of my brother’s prick friends break into our house and steal my 360 and NDS back in early 2007, as well as the games

Yeah I did. Like many of those here,I made the mistake of trusting too much and let a """"friend""" borrow my Tekken 3, Street Fighter Alpha 3 and Digimon World for PS1. The only time he spoke to me again he tried to convince me he had gave me back the games (he did not). Bastard...

I almost lost Twilight Princess (Wii) the same way. After 5 or 6 months, I had to pay the bastard a visit and explain to his mother what was happening. She grounded him for one whole month and clearly beated him up. After that, he was all angry at me with a "you traitor" attitude, but I couldn't care less. If he wasn't malicious, that wouldn't happen. Btw, never talked to him after that. Zelda means life to me, so better not play with fire or you'll pay. mwahahahahaha xD



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

What a shitty person... I hope you have made suggestions to the police to investigate =p

This guy seems like those movie vilains that attack you with 20 people and call you a coward, and when they try to kill your family and you kill one of them they swear they will kill you for revenge... must be one of those guys that think that they are the protagonist of their own story =p

Interesting topic. The Humans on Game Boy, the year was 1992. It was a bus band trip to Austin for a State Marching Band contest, 8 hour bus ride in which we were mainly holding Tetris battles. You could connect the Game Boys together and as long as each person had a Tetris game you could link the Game Boys together and 2 player Tetris. Anywho, we would exchange games with each other and I ended up short.



...to avoid getting banned for inactivity, I may have to resort to comments that are of a lower overall quality and or beneath my moral standards.

I left my Wii Games back at home when I moved out. I went back a year later and my copy of Skyward Sword was nowhere to be found. Who knows what happened to it.

Seem like those chair plays with music that there is always one missing and someone will stand.

Yes, my entire collection at that time was stolen while I was at school and my family was at work. Some robbers broke a window and stole videogames. All my Gamecube games, PS2 games, GBA games, and consoles. They even took my Gameboy Pocket! At the time it would probably been well over $400 worth of games and consoles. The strangest thing about that robbery was that they took a box of ramen noodles. I guess robbing people makes you hungry.



I never had a game stolen from me before, but I did get my PS2, Wii, and 360 stolen.
