Tough Gaming Choices...

[Poopie McGhee]

We've all had to make them... It's part of not being a billionaire with infinite Girlfriends... My question to you, my fellow Escapists, is this... What difficult choices have you, in relation to gaming, have you had to make? For example, my next video game purchase is the hardest I've had to make in recent memory...
It's a choice between 1)MW2, 2)CoD4+GoW2+WaW, Or 3)Dragon Age: Origins... EDIT: These are for the 360 And I bought Borderlands on launch... Any input on mine would be appreciated as well...
EDIT2: Also... All 3 choices are the same price (Except possibly #1 in which case I'd get Hardened Edition for the CoD1 Token)
And I'm Getting AC2 also (That is certain)...

none of those, get borderlands,

or invest the money into shit, and make more money, and buy all of them!

The ending of The Pitt comes to mind. Ultimately, I decided to side with Ashur. Who I then killed for his Power Armor.

Easy, option 2.

I will have to agree with this educated fool.

Do this over and over again so you make loads a money!! Also after that you basicly buy any crap you want so yeah.

Do I switch off every radio and jukebox in Dc, or do I just murder Three Dog?

I think the most difficult gaming choice I ever had to make was whether to trade in a PS2 for an original XBox. Here's the situation....

1. I had a circle of about 8 close friends at the time, and 6 of them had PS2's, 1 had an XBox.
2. There was no online play back then.
3. The original XBox had just put out KOTOR, but I was also looking at Halo and Morrowind.

So I made the switch and got the XBox's beast. Of course most of my friends called me a traitor and made fun of the controllers. I was the first of us to go next-gen, and again I was faced with a decision... 360 or wait a year for the PS3? I got a 360, and none of them followed of course, all getting the PS3.

So that's really what happened in a nutshell. I abandoned my friends' console choice for what I felt was a better gaming experience. Would I do it again? Probably.... but PS3 really disappointed me and by the time the price was reasonable and it had enough games I wanted I already had a Blu-Ray player and a steady friends list on Live.

OT: Go with option 3 .

If you haven't played any of the games in Option 2 then definitely go with those. By the time you get around to finishing all three of them, and getting in some good MP on COD4 and GOW@, the other two should have dropped in price by then.

The Beginning of Drawn to life
Whether or not I wanted to help those Raposa was the toughest decision of my life
I wish more games gave you that option

and as for YOUR dilemma, I suggest #2
Because I'm hoping thats God of War 2

Use the money to buy a ski mask. Rob gamestop. Problem solved!

Seriously though, I'd go with MW2 or something else. Look at the other games that are coming and think about those also.

educated fool

Oxymoron much?

 

[Alias42]

Although this might be a real cheap shot: wait a while.


I know, that's not one of the choices, but seriously: in just a few months you will be able to get most games on your list at about half the price.

Option 2. There's more games in it. But I'm a little biased because I'm boycotting MW2, so take what I say with a grain of salt.

No, that will just make them even more popular! You know what happens when people start making dead-band tributes!
