Guys I need help

Isn't orange box basically the same price as TF2 anyway? Buy that and sell your copies of portal and HL2?

Good plan, to the bat cave Robin!

Holy lesbians Batman!!!

OT: What about my steam account idea? Get your mate to set up a new steam account, buy tf2 using money you give him and then give you the username and password???

Don't play the whole "I'M FROM ENGLAND!" excuse, it rarely works.

I've been trying to work this one out for 10 minutes xD

I have a problem, I really want to get TF2 on steam, but alas, I am 14 so I don't own a credit card. I asked my mum if she could let me use her card to buy it(because its at a low price right now) and she said 'maybe'. She implied that she doesnt trust steam even though I showed her a LOT of security policies that they have but still, no.

If anyone can help me out, please find some facts/statistics from major companies to help me persuade her.

Use a pre paid card in the future, in england you can get what is know as a cv card, where you go on their website, type in the code (its a scratch card like the itunes cards) and then they give you a account number etc etc. Pre paid debit cards are good too, but ive actually used the cv card, so I know it works.

Besides which, consider that it's the end of October, Christmas is coming. up. All of the rambling above aside, you sound like a kid. Think about it, your parents are probably saving their money to get you stuff for Christmas, and the things you mention that you want now are probably going on their list of things to get you. I mean sure, you want the game now, but well... that's how it always is when your young (heck I'm an Adult and do that too at times wven when I know better... lol).

Yeah my dads friend did this with mario galaxy, he just told my friend to get him it for christmas

Saw a copy of it in a Game store in staines, just go and buy it, i got mine a year ago at £7 in game store in wales, no excuses really...
Edit: Disregard the post TL;DR'd it xD

Not be be a downer here but TF2 is an M rated game here which probably makes it... *Google search* 16 or 18+ or whatever so I have to say don't buy it. *booing* Hey, I can't help if I'm lawful good!

It's rated M for mature, isn't that 17 years old?

Try working around the house, get some money, then ask Mom to drive you to a store, if the store is sold out, ask them to order it. Just like the guy above me says, it usually works.

Actually, I managed to persuade her that I am smart enough not to absorb a games message as real. And I am.
But it worked!

Have you heard of a 3v card? send away for one, its like a credit card that works like a mobile phone top up. Theyre designed for teenagers and the like. They have them in Ireland so i'd assume theyd have them in the UK...

EDIT: its also completely free, you just give them your address and theyll post you one
