The majority of my game purchases are used from my local game shops, or through the play.com PlayTrade scheme. Like some of the other posters in this thread, my mentality is 'Why pay full price for a game when you can get a used copy for a fraction of the price?'. As for potentially getting a...

Came for Zero Puncuation, stayed for Unforgotten Realms and There Will Be Brawl. Thought I'd join the forum as well, and post my 2 cents in popular threads.

There's no way I could compete with that awesome quote from Baldur's Gate, but one of my favourite quotes came from Final Fantasy XII, and it rings true with how things were in my life a few years ago. "The Illusions of the past. You think to have cast them off, only to find them years later...

I actually visited Vancouver back in November 2008, and I enjoyed every moment of my stay there. The Canadians are the nicest people you could ever hope to meet, and if I ever had the chance to visit Vancouver again, I most definitely would.

I voted for 'No, they should be given a chance to learn'. I voted for that because they're new to the game and need some time to learn the ropes, but on the flipside, they shouldn't be asshats about it. When I'm playing a new game for the first time, I don't go around begging for free things off...

So what else is new? I'm sure the world and it's dog knows how much of a moron 'el Ambulance Chaser Extraordinare' is :D. Just ignore him and pray he goes away yet again.

JD is my liquor of choice. I do drink others, such as vodka and occasionally rum, but there's nothing like a JD and Coke.

Surely you mean 'Mega Ultra Chicken', right? :D Thought of a few more bits I have. I too have an Ancient Mew Pokemon card. I bought the PS2 Yu-Gi-Oh game 'Duelists of the Roses' years back, and it came with Alpha, Beta and Gamma the Magnet Warrior cards which I still have in their wrapper...

Not sure if they're classed as rare or hard to come by, but I have 2 'Deal Or No Deal' postcards, signed by Noel Edmonds. One was obtained by requesting one from his website, and the other from a competition on a DOND forum. They're both identical, apart from one being signed in blue ink and the...

I'd love to get on as many high-profile game shows as I could, win a boatload of money and travel the world.

That's not Superman, that's just Bearded Idiot :D [Insert obligatory "I AM A MAYUUUN!!!" joke here]

Always the same, isn't it? "Oh, it's not the parents' fault their kids are out of control, let's blame the nasty evil video games instead". When I took a Christmas job in my local game shop one year, I would ALWAYS point out to the parents that the games they were buying may not be suitable for...

It'd be awesome if faster than light travel WAS possible, but would the human body be able to withstand the sheer amount of force placed on it?

Those were tolerable compared to the 'Halifax Radio' ads they're doing now. A big part of me is glad I don't work there any more.

I voted 'Yes'. To me, most games nowadays seem to be all about style over substance. Sure, the games LOOK pretty, but there's barely any gameplay to them. You might get around 8 hours of gameplay out of it (if it doesn't have online capability), with the rest being taken up by cinematic...
