Can't say I'm looking forward to it...if the pain is anything like I experianced when I got the metal brackets 2 weeks ago...ugh.

The good thing is that I MIGHT just get to buy the Sims 2 after...

With a little timkering, I might be able to get you some radio reception on them. :)

I went into Best Buy today. Sims 2 = $50 = waste of money. It looked liked a good game from stuff I've seen, but I think I can stand to wait for the price to drop--plus, I don't really have fifty dollars worth of time to sit around playing video games.

Let me know when Sam's Club has it for 20-30 bucks cheaper, okay? If I spend $50 on a game, it'll be GTA:SA

amen...

But I haven't gotten a new game since Summer started...It's like a caffeine addiction.

Last time I got a new video game: January-ish of this year. It was America's Army. I still feel like I stole it...

Before that, gifts for birthday/chirstmas...I haven't bought a game in forever.

Well I'm 14 and I spend a lot of time indoors (now I have a good excuse because I have 2 hours of Cross Country practice after school). So you do the math. :)


Yes, I DO have a decent social life. I'm no nerd or loser. I just like videogames...a lot!

Yea, I just remembered how young you were. I thought you were a couple years older. Anyway, when I was that age I bought video games all the time...but I had marching band an average of 10 hours per week, plus 2 hour football games every Friday night...and I went caving frequently. Anyway, once you hit college, video games don't seem worth the money because you don't play them that often.

Getting braces sucks. I remember when I had mine... At least I got them before high school.

And yes, invest in The Sims 2 - it's a great way to squander time!

Hmm...is it really buggy? I got the first game in that series, Shogun: Total War, and it plays as if it's a beta version of the game (and I bought it from the store, not download it).

I considered it, but I've had enought with RTS.

I never played any of the early serious, there are some minor issues from running speeds of units running up/downhill, and the mutliplayer has some issues, but the creators have already announced a patch very soon to fix. But as far as I can see-no, it does not have any bugs.
