Or just buy some more games for the PC. :p UT2k4, Farcry, and Battlefield 'Nam is coming out in the next month or so.
But, its like a collection. Ya know, PS2, PC, XBOX, Gamecube = Family.
I find that there are games that become shelved as soon as they are 'finished' or their novelty wears off.....and that this can be used to your advantage
I received a $100 eb games voucher for xmas....
i traded in :
*dynasty warriors 3 and dynasty warriors 3XL(which I dont play anymore as I have DW4....) and got Final Fantasy x-2, usually valued at 99.95(aussie dollars) for 49.95....
*devil may cry2 and jedi starfighter (neither of which I play anymore), traded for rebel Strike at 49.95, also usually priced at 99.95
therefore,
*1 xmas voucher
*4 unwanted games
2 brand new games worth $200 at no extra cost !
Me likey very much !
*resumes wait for gamecube to arrive in mail.....*

do not dare to buy a NGC without SSBM, it's really awesome and cheap (player's choice)
Check out pawn shops. I scored mine w/ two games (one of which was Rogue Squadron II) for 80 bucks even, ater tax.

I mean, within legal limits. ;)
As a parent - I'd tell you no too. You need to learn not to spend all your money on video games, its not like you are deprived. You need to set some limits.
However
As a parent, who loves video games - I'd tell you okay spend your $100 on it - but if you need more you'd have to save up for it.
As a parent I'd tell you to go out and mow the lawn and take out the trash.
And then I'd sell you to Somalia.
:D

I get F's in school, I go out with a different girl every week. But hey, at least I dont kill, my parents should be proud of me.
:p
You should squawsh the obsession now - before you 24 like me and have all kinds of debt = and STILL find ways to buy new video games when you should be paying off credit cards....
*hangs her head in shame*
I heard Gamecube will be coming ON-LINE soon, some games are going to come out with ON-LINE options.... I can't wait...

I had recently paid off a credit card and personal loan - two huge debts... all I have left is the mortgage..... I find that if you do some good bargain hunting and trading in you get the things you want to play....eventually I've wanted a GC for years now, but havinga PS2 and PC made it an excessive thing that i just couldnt afford.... having fun is important, but you do need to set limits and be responsible about it, especially if your financial decisions affect others, as is inevitably the case if you are married, have kids etc.....

Yeah what he said, yet you forgot to mention about owning a secret lab with glider technology, pumpkin bombs, rockets for that glider..... expensive...
