Unstream Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Garage sales are a great way to get some cash. My friend once found a copy of FFVII worth $50 for $3. Some people don't know the worth of what they actually have. Quote
Mimii Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Blehh, we just sold our 360! We still had a couple months of Live time and MS points too!! The lack of jobs is hurting us badly right now. :( Quote
Revenge Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 It's kinda funny how just when video games get really popular, the economy starts telling them they might not have enough funding to keep the business alive. Because games need so much time and money to make, it gets really hard to make 'em any more. Quote
̊ ˉˉ ̊ Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 Yep. But they will survive. I mean, if it gets really bad, we can just go to the games for the pc that have very low system specs until more money pops up. and it would also weed out bad developers (and maybe they would stop making a new madden game every year) Quote
Unstream Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 I doubt video games are gonna disappear. Makers like Square Enix and Bungie are probably confident enough in what they do that they'll still make the investment in making a game. I think it'll just get rid of all of those lame games out there. I mean, those movie games are really pointless, like Eragon, which was just a terrible game. Quote
Revenge Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 I hate movie games. They're always either really straight forward in that you have to do every single thing exactly the way it happened in the movie without any freedom, or just really bad 'cause the developers didn't take it seriously enough, because it's just a merchandising scheme. My favorite movie based on a movie (and the last one I played that I thought was good) was Toy Story 2. That was worth playing. Quote
̊ ˉˉ ̊ Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Modding Fable TLC is so freaking funny :) I love it! Quote
Revenge Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Who plays SSBB? I don't have anyone to face... Quote
̊ ˉˉ ̊ Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I do at my friend's house sometimes. I don't got a wii. although I'll eventually get one when they're cheaper. Quote
Revenge Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Good luck with that. The Wii's been going sold out for about two or three years now. People are fine with the price, it sells, Nintendo knows that. Until you can find ten Wiis just sitting there on the shelves with no one looking at them, it'll stay that price. (And by that time, everyone and their aunt Harold would have one.) Quote
̊ ˉˉ ̊ Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 That's what used, workable condition is for ;b It's way to expensive. I'd rather spend my money on a spiffy new PC. Quote
Revenge Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Which potentially costs even more? The cheapest laptop I want is about $400. I don't think everyone is as knowledged in building computers as you. Quote
̊ ˉˉ ̊ Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I'm just talking about what I want. Wii is great, It's just not for me at that price. I use PC so much, that $1000 on a really nice one would be worth it. Quote
Revenge Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Okay. I've had one for a year, it's kinda hard to get good new games after you've had a few. You know what I hate though? About 60% of all 360 games are shooters. For the Wii it's party games. And it's kinda hard to find a PS3 game that can't be found anywhere else. Quote
Revenge Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Yes, that's what I was going for. PS2 was pretty diverse too, but now that they don't make games for it anymore... Or do they? I've been wondering when they'd stop. They said it would two years ago. When are they going to drop it and move on? you can practically count all the PS3 games on your fingers. Quote
̊ ˉˉ ̊ Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 PS2 is still very popular, so the still make enough money too be worth their continuance. Quote
AntiGravityAzn Posted March 6, 2009 Author Posted March 6, 2009 Sorry to stray from the current PC topic...but has anyone played the new Prince of Persia game? I have been a huge fan of the games since I was little...I played on DOS and SNES. But anyways, I heard the new game is amazing. Anyone else play/own it? ETA: lol I meant PS, not PC :) Quote
Macabre Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 I really want to get the new Prince of Persia game too. =/ Or Call of Duty. I'm sort of bummed that Halo Wars isn't out for PC. Quote
Awesome_Paul Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 I've played the new POP. Its good, but don't expect it to be like the other POP. They have taken a different way of doing this. But if this one sells enough, they have made it for a sequel. Quote
AntiGravityAzn Posted March 7, 2009 Author Posted March 7, 2009 Right, I'm kind of glad they strayed from the side-scrolling puzzles, lol. I liked them, but that's not exactly why I bought a 360 :) (hides her SNES emulator) I played the new POP on my friend's PC a few days ago and it was awesome! It was very different...and it was actually kind of easy now that I think about it, but I didn't notice it was easy because everything was so smooth (graphics, controls, gameplay, etc.). Plus the environments were just absolutely gorgeous. I thought it was funny how you couldn't die and how Elika (sp?) saved you no matter what. But I suppose that lets you enjoy the game more instead of worrying when your last save was, lol. Quote
̊ ˉˉ ̊ Posted March 7, 2009 Posted March 7, 2009 I'm one step closer ($3) to getting my computer :) online surveys offering money are great. Quote
