Step 1: Unplug ethernet cord.
Step 2: Play a great game a week early.
Sure you have to pay a decent chunk of cash, but you get a great game! Personally I wouldn't pay that much to get a multiplayer game only a few days early.
That said I would have no problem paying 1700 for a great game early. I just would need it a few months, maybe even a year early.
Hi people just logging into Diablo 3, i'm already max level, and I have tons of goodies for you rich people every step of the way.
Want my strategy guide? Or a maxed axe for a level 10, 20, 30, 40? I have all of that prepared for you. Just give me that credit card. You know you want to buy my gold, afterall i'm the only guy who has it.
