  1. well, we can do spend some money on some games that is worth it..especially we can choose games based on what we heard that is entertaining to play and with a fun and loving community..especially we should consider our taste on choosing the type of game we wanted..we cannot term it as wasting money since it gives us good time spending in because of its community and many other aspects..
    wasting money is somehow spending money on a none sense activity..
    spending money is spending unto a worth it type of activity where you will have no regrets upon deciding a certain decision..

    now i wanted to know are you spending or wasting?
  2. I dont regret buying any game at all, they was all entertaining:D
  3. I guess is better wasting money in games than wasting on marihuanna or cigarettes (that is most people do)

    if to wasting money we come there are lot's of things NOT worth wasting than just videogames

    Well just my opinion
  4. I only buy games if i really respect the work of the company who makes them....
  5. I only think its a waste when I spend money on Mace Griffen, Neuro Hunter or Fire Warrior. But I take responsibility for those poor choices.
    Other than that spending money on a game is better than smokes or drugs as acal said.
  6. Depends how much u spend *buying* the game.
    There are always alterior ways of gettign games. And by that, I mean ways such as gifts and buying 2nd hand. Naturally, what other way would I be talking bout?
  7. yeah depends if the game is worth it to spend money..i guess acal3000 is definitely right instead of wasting money on some bad vices
  8. It's been a while since I've bought any new games - other things are taking up my $$

    To me, anything that brings you pleasure, isn't a waste of money. If you like video games, and you get enjoyment/entertainment out of them, put as much money into your collection as you'd like.

    I kept my last car stock, and I enjoyed it; this one - not so much. I've been upgrading parts on it, and every time I do, my gas mileage goes down as well, so I'm spending more in two different aspects.

    As long as you get your bills paid, spend your money however you'd like.
  9. yea agree with that
  10. I buy what I likes, and I likes what I buy. ;)
  11. Games at least last longer than some othere things u can buy. SInce when does a car cost in the same bracket as pc game? Is there a price on what we enjoy? Should we spend alot on something which gives us joy for a long time, or spend a greater sum on something which brings utmost joy even though for a moment?
  12. I got loads of money right now. 2888kr, 2000 is going to the pc saving fond. So I got 888kr that I wanna use on a game. I`m open for suggestions.
  13. Well, i bought Supreme Commander the other day. Fortunately it was really cheap, because it seem like it sucks.

    But i have ordered Crysis and Frontlines: Fuel Of War. I know i'm not going to regret those purchases.
  14. COD4 is better than all of that muwahahaha. Prey and Crysis are alright. Their games that any gamer should have, get some classics before getting the *latest*.
  15. I have tons of classics, COD1, 2 and 4, completed them all. The Quake series, UT, SOF, BF1941, BF2, BF2142, C&C, Prey etc.


    And that's just the shooters/RTS.
  16. I bought max payne1:D I wanted to see how the first game was.
  17. It's a great game :D
  18. No kidding, but much more difficult than MP2.
  19. I dont think its more dif. MP2 is way better in every way though. I do think playing as Mona was stupid though. I liked those bonus stages on MP2 where you have to survive as long as you can. Quake 3 is still insanely addictive though. As Cstrike 1.6
  20. Its spending for me and wasting for my parents. I buy what i play. Mostly i buy games if i heard they are ok. Like Half-life series, starcraft, warcraft series, command and conquer,... And I believe it is a wasting if you buy every game you see.
    And i agree with Ranger57 about MP2 and CS.
  21. Max Payne 2 was developed for consoles and PC at the same time where as Max Payne 1 was developed for PC and then ported to console which. The tactical gameplay of mp1 was left out of mp2 as it was considered too complex for console gamers and was replaced with a more arcade style...or so I read.
    What remains is neither game is a waste of money.
  22. reminds me of the Deus Ex: IW console port.... =/
  23. sometimes when we buy cheap games, although its cheap we suffer from its quality of it so instead of buying cheap games i just prefer buying game the it'll give me satisfaction not only for the quality of it but also the overall performance of it
  24. Hell yeah!
  25. If the game is good (Crysis), it's really worth the money....

    But there are a lot of games which just burn a hole in your pocket :)
  26. Crysis is a good game, but way too hyped. It's just like a Farcry upgrade.
  27. Yeah Max Payne 2 was lots more easy than Max Payne 1. Also the lenght in MP2 feels so short (or I don't know if its coz its more easy and take less time). I completed MP2 like in week I generally don't finish games that fast on MP1 took several months arrive to end

    Both are good. One of the best parts of MP1 in my opinion is when you arrive to the goth disco. It feels like some kind of dark mistery the first time you playing that part until you arrive to the end.

    One old FPS that was also very good and with a dark feeling is Return to Castle Wofenstein. I played it again ir in December past year after years I let it . And it impress how the old the game is now and the AI it's lots more diifcult (even on easy more) than newer FPS games like HL2 or FEAR
  28. MP1 is still the best..i played MP2 before but o didn't finish the game
  29. Gimmie a break.

    My vids are better because of my hydro.

    CoD4 ltd ed= $75
    White Widow= $135
    the exhilaration of actually losing yourself
    in the game............= you know

    It's only a waste if you didn't enjoy it.
    Fight for Life for the Atari 64
    now that was a waste of money.
  30. It took you that long to play trough MP2? I used 3 days, but then again, I`m maybe playing way to much games. I think I got a average on about 4hours a day on the last week, if you dont count that day when I went out with my friends. oh, and I almost forgot to mension, I DONT USE SLOWMO, its no good, just like F.E.A.R., completely and uterly useless, Max Payne and F.E.A.R......*thinking pause*.... no ALL games with slowmo is WAY TO EASY!! But then again, playing with slowmo is a binary choise, you either play with slowmo or you dont.
  31. I never cared too much about slow mo in fact I only used it a few times to see it but I didn't used it too much when firing. It didn't impress so much as other people did. I just saw as fancy no escential feature
  32. The slo mo is meant to be a game mechanic in perhaps the same way as different biomods in deus ex...the max payne games are meant to be played with slo mo otherwise the become a lot more difficult.
