Game: £30

if I factored in the RAM upgrade that I bought just for planetside, and had to ditch because it was fucked, that's another £50

£90 for 1 game is pretty high I guess, but for an MMO game, maybe average.
Well if you're going to be that way about it you might as well just include every computer you've ever bought since each is technicly just bought because it's an upgrade. :smirk:

Except that the ram was bought solely for planetside, and crapped out literally days after I stopped playing.

Landlord is painting it all white. Which is fucking dumb. The paintwork was fine and he's just irritating me by being here.

I have an attic room next to a random guy who owns decks and likes house music, and the walls are thin. He's courteous enuf tho and I've not had any issues.

45 quid a week all bills included rules.

It was worth it. Course way back then my mom paid for it, but yes, it was worth it.

see I dont know.

I think if you want to compare who spent the most on a game, you should compare who spent the most on just a game, not super special editions with posters and shit or special controllers. Lots of people buy arcade boards and stuff. thats expensive, but its a different type of thing IMO.

If you want to question the other thing, then ask whats the most you spent on a single purchase for video games.

I think I spend most on Quake 3. I had the tin box imported from the US. The game itself cost me $65 or so, add to that like $30 shipping and then I had to pay an additional $25 at delivery for some reason. I think it was import tax or some bullshit like that.

In total it cost me nearly $120
