I'm just a kid working part time. People older then me usually have full time jobs and make more then 9.55 an hour. So I don't think 600 is totally out of question*Or 700 in Canada* just really impractical when stacked up against the price of the other systems*Wii espcially* and the games out for it currently suck or can be found on other systems. And for the price of two PS3's you could net yourself a nice HDTV*Which I would guess most people would want to play games on now of days*

It is out of the question though, and you pointed it out in your own post. You're just a kid. You have completely disposable income. You don't have bills to pay, mouths to feed and a family to provide for. Your average working joe can't go out and drop $600+ on a video game console. You need to get out into the real world before making all your statements, cause dude...you've been making some questionable ones lately. No offense, buddy.

I can stand blood, I play mature rating games all the time, ut2004, gta, doom.

So I will pick it up when I get a ps2.

ANyways, I got this new psp game which came out yesterday called Gurumin : A Monstrous Adventure. it's an action rpg game where your a cute anime girl with a drill.

it is really fun and I am having a blast playing it. There are multiple diffiiculties and lots of replay value.

pick this up.

I also want to pick up Ratchet and Clank Size matters, the demo was fun. Also metal slug anthology and Monster Kingdom: Jewel Summoner which is a pokemon-like game.

**Barkworm** · 02-14-2007, 06:27 AM

Peanut, will you get a PS3 for "GoW2" since it will support 720p? I can only imagine how awesome it will look.

EDIT: Awww, forget it, the HD thing was apparently a misinformation. Stupid IGN.

EDIT²: I've just watched IGN's video review and words cannot describe how f*cking amazing this game looks. I've been looking forward to this game since day 1 and I didn't even dream about it looking this great. Mind-blowing.

EDIT³:This ugly pic says that Fumito Ueda's studio (the geniuses behind "ICO" and "Shadow of the Colossus") has finally started working on their new PS3 game. Niiiiice.

You know, I probably would if it actually did support it. And yeah, the need to play this damn game is bubbling over inside of me. I've refused to watch anything besides the official trailer they put out, though. This is one game where I want to go in as a virgin.

And I have no idea what that picture is supposed to imply, but it says PS3 and Ueda's involved, so count me the hell in.

**Barkworm** · 02-14-2007, 10:50 AM

The pic is a job ad, they are looking for developers.
Good decision to not watch any "GoW2" videos. After watching the video review my excitement has entered painful dimensions. Good thing I still have Okami, otherwise I would have to freeze myself.

Peanut · 02-14-2007, 10:52 AM

I still feel some pains, but at least you've got something good to occupy yourself with. I've dug so far into the backlog of games that I'm currently playing King Kong on the 360. *tear*

**Barkworm** · 02-14-2007, 11:05 AM

I'm really interested about how the story will turn out. It seems like this time there are a lot more characters involved and IGN described the plot as "more complex and complicated" than the first one. I have to admit that I was a little worried about the story since it seemed to me that Kratos's tale was done so I'm pleasantly surprised to hear about that.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 02-14-2007, 04:47 PM

Not spoiling yourself makes a world of difference. I did that with Twilight Princess, and it helps preserve the "awe" factor. It's hard for me to do though, when you're in the media, but all the more worth it when you pick up the game.

愛 · 02-14-2007, 05:37 PM

I don't usually get angry over spoilers. I actually read the spoiler tags about a game I haven't played yet. I was even spoiled Twilight Princess. Not much really surprises me anymore.

But anyway, I'm super psyched for GoW2. The first game was phenomenal.

Peanut · 02-14-2007, 07:44 PM

Now THIS is what the PSP should be used for. I saw a video for this game awhile ago, but it totally escaped my mind. This preview is bringing it all back. I'll definately be picking this one up, it looks great!

**ThirdMarioBro** · 02-14-2007, 08:18 PM

Sounds like fun. I'll check it out.

I don't have disposable income at all. I pay for food, transportation, Cell bill, and allot of the time I have to pay for house expenses*I look at it as rent*

Also I'm trying to save up all my cash so I can pay for college. My Mom works 8 hours a day 5 days a week and makes like 12 something an hour. And that's working in a bistro at a office building. I'm sure most people her age*Almost 40* make way more then that. She makes due with that just fine. With all the cash she blows on DVDs every week she could easily buy a PS3*IF she wanted one* She supports 4 other people and only 2 of those people have jobs*Me and my other roommate*

My Dad works at Seagate and I don't know how much he makes but last I heard it was over 20. He bought 3 1000 dollar instruments last year and pays 70 bucks every 2 weeks to pay rent on his recording studio on top of his house rent and stuff.

With examples like those I don't see a PS3 being out of the question for someone. Everyone who works at my store can afford one*Most of them are part time like me and make the same wages I do, and only a few of them have 2nd jobs. Also most of them live in apartments* So that's why I said that.

Peanut · 02-14-2007, 08:26 PM

You live in some completely random universe. Seriously. It seems like everything you talk about only happens in the world you live in.

I live in the US if that makes any difference to you. That is how it is where I live. I honestly have no other way to explain it to you. I don't just make crap up to confuse all of you, I'm telling you like it is.

What is that even supposed to mean? That we live in poverty in Canada? Like...I don't even know!

No, just things are different here then they are there. I actually always thought Canada was richer then the US to be honest. We have such a huge debt to pay off. No wonder my pay checks are raped by taxes.

How are they different? At all? Did you do a school project on this one too?

I'm not trying to offend you, but the stuff you say really sounds like something someone with no worldly experience would ever say. Ever.

愛 · 02-14-2007, 08:43 PM

Well, I'm glad my mom loves me and helps me out whenever I need it.

Their different because your money is worth more then ours. So maybe you guys get paid differently. I've never been to your country so I don't know much about it other then the money.

I did no projects at all on this one. I had an A in history, but I don't see that making much different though haha.

Yeah I'm 18 and I still live at home but I do pay expenses. Though soon I'll learn even more about paying bills cause I'll have college,and a car. I just pay bus fare now.
