Does it have to be a game? What if I needed the marijuana for my cataracts? $50 could make my eyes feel soooooo good...

jk, I think maybe I'd get MVP Baseball. Yeah, that's what I'd get.

That has to be a trick question. There is no way I'd spend $50 on just one game (well, panzer dragoon saga, but that is about it)

I guess I'm not that great a cheapass then. I bought Harvest Moon: AWL and Pokemon Colleseum... both brand new, over the course of one week.

I too have bought some new games on release week, GTA double pack comes to mind, as does Ninja Gaiden, but I traded in a few games for it, so I only paid $27.

Of course :!:

But I am a cheapass so I am going to have to wait a while for that game to drop in price. :(

I'll board this train as well. Dependng on wether my careless friends buy this I just might buy it fir the xbl play.

I've bought plenty of games on their release date for $50, but I try my best to hold off now until the price drops. Once you start getting great games for $20 or less, it's hard to go back to paying $50.

GTA: San Andreas will be an exception to that rule for me. No way I can wait one day longer than I have to for that. :)

Far Cry PC, Its only $40 so I would have $10 left :)

03-23-2004, 09:16 PM
for me I would get Halo2, Resident Evil 4, Metal Gear Solid 3 or Gran Turismo4 those are the games I wouldnt mind spending 50 bucks on because I know they will be great.

i'd get the import Zelda Four Swords for GC.

then pay three japanese "friends" $16.66 each to play with me.... and read me the signs.....

i'm so impatient......

Intelligent Qube, that ridiculously overpriced PS game. But $50 probably wouldn't be enough.

Oh, since this is in the xbox forum are we only supposed to name xbox games? Ehh, if so then I'd buy Riddick when it comes out.

That's funny cause I traded for both those games at EB. Probably got both for 50 bucks, c'mon JS, we're losing you.

Edit: Disgaea if I wasn't such a cheapass, but since I am it will stay at EB mocking me.

Hey, don't hate the playa, hate the game. :)


It's not as bad as it seems... I bought Crash for the Ps2 for 10 at Target, and preordered Wade Hixton's Counter Punch and RType 3 for the GBA...which both retail at the cheapass price of $20.

Halo 2 or Pandora damn straight.

WhipSmartBanky

$50 just for one game? I don't think I could do it. Probably preorder Halo 2 or DOAUC.

03-23-2004, 10:27 PM
I think it'd be either Fable, GTA: San Andreas, or Metal Gear Solid 3. Most likely Fable, being that it's the only game from that list that I'll bet won't drop to a greatest hits line within a year.

I bought a new PS2 and Final Fantasy X without waiting for the price drop. But thats more like $220.

Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow

I'm pretty sure I'll be able to hold off until I can find it for $35 or even lower, though.

I consider it a test of my willpower as a cheap ass to not pay $50 for a game :lol:

Well, I'm pondering buying Onimusha Blade Warriors this week - but since it's only $40, I'd still be somewhat of a cheapass. ;)

Final Fantasy X-2.

Yuna and Rikku are smokin' hot, and besides... its the sequel to X! Woo!

I'd take your spare $10 and put it together with my 50 and get the 3 games I got last night at Fry's: Tenchu 3, ICO, and Freedom Fighters. all $20 a pop.

thanks for the $10 man.

I'd order Breakdown from Ebgames.com, so I'd get both Breakdown and Dead To Rights. DTR is a great game and Breakdown seems cool after playing the demo.

Conker Live & Uncut.... There's just something about foul mouthed, beer guzzling, ass kicking rodents that dilutes my cheapness.

$50? I'd go get Final Fantasy Anthology and Chrono Cross from Best Buy. With enough left over to maybe get one more $10-$15 game.

03-25-2004, 02:44 PM
Fable.

Probably a game that I would put my hard earned $50 would be Halo 2.

FaintDeftone
03-27-2004, 01:12 AM
I'd probably buy Splinter Cell: PT

Lefty
03-28-2004, 10:38 PM
Probably Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow or Ninja Gaiden. Halo 2, when it comes out. And GTA:STA, but that isn't coming out for the XBox right away, is it?

CaseyRyback
03-28-2004, 10:43 PM
I would buy Far Cry and Splinter Cell:PT (whoring myslef out for the other 5 for shipping and the extra 10 for Far Cry)

Advocatus
03-29-2004, 03:39 PM
Right now? I wouldn't get anything actually... I'd save it for Halo 2. All of the other games I'd like to play aka.. Gaiden, splinter cell 2, etc etc will eventually come down in price. I suspect Halo 2 will be full price for a really really long time.

i spend 50 bucks on games far too often. yesterday i just bought breakdown and splinter cell pandora tomorrow. today im probably gonna buy disgaea for 45.

If I had 50 dollars? I'd buy you a green dress. But not a real green dress, that's cruel.
