The True Cost of gaming

Hello,

Ijust wanted to bring up the cost of gaming and especally when money is a crunch for you.

Its is currently 60 for a game

that translate to 8.5 hours you have to work if you work 7.25 an hour.

which most games will average that sort of o=some more so maybe your money's worth?

but ten games amount to 600 dollors were 20 1200!

So if you want a game maybe 1 or 2 new once in a while for your top 1 game,

Games now a day dont run out, and it will chance be cheaper soon, you can get used ones for cheaper, or if you wait a year, or two Patience, it can be 20 or less

so even with dealls or blackfriday(idid on line) you can save more

I spent 130 on Rocksmith resistance3 resistance2 batmanArkhamcity

which broke to

fullprice minus dealamount or waiting for price to drop(resistance2)

80-30=50

60-30=30

60-40=20

60-30=30

-----------

260-130=130

so i saved about 130 those were black friday deals and waiting with resitance two which in return i went to ebay and amazon and bought other stuff.

Its just a though because games can run a bill, but you can save a bit

My guitar just to throw in another thing, I payed 300 thats including its unique case, its a dean razor back thats why, but it was that much on amazon i remember about 5 years ago it was 700 and i also wen with out a wammy bar which cut the price down by 300 more dollars.

In short research try to find deals, wait till price goes down,

If its something you absolutly love and is totaly you like for me a main color black with a little red over or vice versa i must have, or certain things. all else get on a deal.

PS: dont come to japan go to another asian country its to dang expensive lol

like food here a buffet i went to was like 38dollars and a small ramen place was like 13dollars,expensive but great i spent like 15 on curry although its probably sasebo , i think its highest/expensive place to live in japan, because dydo a town over is significantly cheaper by noticable stnadards, althoguh games here in japan cun run a bill up to 150 dollars top!

Insane i know i use to think they were overcharging on amazon for imports but sometimes i find they are charging less than in japan and the cost they are chargin is still well over 100!

and dont forget Gamestop on blkfriday usualy has a buy 2 get 1 free game or something were you get 1 free, true they dont always have your game but if you wait a while they get cheap, I rember with that deal i got

10games and it totaled like 110 to 130 not so bad a deal would you say? Blockbuster also sells used versions real cheap sometimes got motorstorm PR for only 15 dollors when Gamestop was charging 30.

love ya all, happy shopping, And may the Deals Be With!

I love games But for me i will only get 1 or 2 games a year... If that.

I just got my PSvita and will only be getting the New COD once it's out... And maybe some small PSN games for 7$-10$ every month or so.

Last game I bought full price was Skyrim. Got it 3 days after release, still playing it on occasion.

Definitely got my moneys worth from that!

      I attend a medical day-centre in Texas for needed medical services. It's religious oriented, so not gender fluid friendly. I of course dress 100% in female attire yet androgynous to keep both "them happy", and I really don't mind.    I of course am imposed rules that no other participant is bound by. The examples are the allowed size of my backpack, or how many visits per day I can see my Representative payee.  The gender neutral restroom use was a compromise that all off us have agreed to.  Not being able to wear tanks tops or shorts that aren't "Bermuda length" are other examples of where I am restricted more than any other participant. "Bra talk" is strictly forbidden, even though their doctor and occupational therapist were the ones that told me I needed support due to neck pain.    I found myself being reprimanded by staff three times yesterday for very petty details, and they have constantly pushed for me to remove myself from the program voluntarily. I am of course someone not welcomed in the program, but federal discrimination laws prevent them from removing me. They instead are just making life miserable with the hopes that I will leave on my own.

      Nope.  I live in a rural area.  Pride events are for city folks.  The normally quiet LGBTQ+ club kind of changes atmosphere during that time, and things get a bit political.  As a non-Democrat, I avoid it.

      For me, definitely the size thing.  I'm 5'4" on a good day, and 100lbs.  I can pass as a teenage boy, but never for my real mid-30s age.  And since my husband looks older than his age, I'm often assumed to be his kid.  Or folks think there's something illegal going on.      Also, my lack of the typical aggressive "masculine" demeanor.  I don't really desire the typical masculine social role, nor could I do it even if I tried really hard.  I'm usually quiet and kind of timid.

      I am sorry for your struggles. I cannot empathize, but I can surely sympathize. I wish only the best for you!

      My size. A lot of guys aren't 5'3" at seventeen. My hands. It's a less noticeable one, but my hands are very "feminine"? If you know what I mean. My voice. Very high-pitched. I don't just sound like a female, I sound like a little girl sometimes My chest. I've had to stop binding due to frequent aches doing so, and it's not nearly small enough to just cover with baggy clothes My family. They still call me she/her, so that's an automatic out. My anxiety. I might be able to pass better if I had the courage to correct people. Instead, I'm too scared to speak up, so I find it hard. My lack of men's clothes.   Anyone else have these problems, or other ones?

      From what I have read and heard most people are so.busy with their everyday lives and either looking at their phones or in a hurry to notice you out and about. 
    • RaineOnYourParade
      This exactly ^^^   I actually really liked games where I was required to play a male character. It felt homey, in a way. 
    • violet r

    • violet r
      Anyone play war and order on their phones?  
    • violet r
      I can relate.  I have always played a female character when given the opportunity. Not really and reason except I just alway pick them since I was young

      Yes, our little town is having its 3rd annual Pridefest. I've volunteered the first two years  from setup to tear down (though I do take an hour off to eat and drink in the middle).     Then I attend a bigger one a couple towns over that has had some decent entertainment from some semi-famous folks (Laura Benanti, Patrick Wilson, Carmen Carrera, Judy Gold, etc).    This year I made sure to ask off of (weekend) shifts to attend a 3rd one where a group I'm in is in the parade.

      Hi Vicky, I agree with you, so far since the time I've been under the new treating doctor's care, she prescribed me medication, but it's for children lol  luckily  my pharmacy warned me from a phone call not to take the medication.
