Some PC games are really cheap.  My mate bought Left for Dead for like $20. Same price for Arkham Asylum. Both great games.

Sorry but I don't know much about downloading modern games. Only games I play on my computer are ROMs for the NES, SNES etc.

Yeah PC games are dirt cheap. Try fleabay.

Thanks for the rep Xander =D Nice pic dude!

It always boggled me how a brand new PC game can cost more than half the price of its 360/PS3 counterpart. How does that work?

[Wolf Man]

favourite game - Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64) or L4D2

You're the only one so far! I always feel alone

newest game - Starcraft II (edit: unless you count Cataclysm)

Epically jealous... x.x

You have to take into account the effort it takes to make the game compatible with a PC. It's more complicated than with a console game, hence a bigger price tag.

newest game (to me)- COD: World at War
console - PC, N64, Xbox360
favourite game - Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
favourite type of game - Adventure, FPS, RTS

Nonono, sorry, that isn't what I meant. I meant that PC games are often much cheaper than the console versions, despite being released at the same time Sorry, I worded that badly!

[Wolf Man]

If that's the case then I believe it's because they're catering to a brand. Name Brands = $$$. If it's all the same game, then it comes down to what it's being played on. As for PCs, well they're all PCs and the only things they've got are requirements

newest game - red dead redemption and scott pilgrim the game (which i think is hilarious)

console - ps3, xbox360, wii, nds, psp, pc. and a crapload of emulators running on the old xbox.  not enough space for all the vintage goodies

favourite game - wow, mostly. my consoles don't get much attention anymore, only my bf playing all sorts of sports games^^ but because wow seems to be a given, i'll also mention heavy rain, which is really the best few hours i spent in ages. awesome.

favourite type of game - rpg, oldskool jump'n'runs

[Dante]

favourite game - Kingdom Hearts

Woot! Kingdom Hearts! I was sad that I couldn't afford Re:coded.  I've pre-ordered every KH game since Re:CoM. KH used to be my favorite game, before I played TWEWY.

Which is funny, because I really hate sequels. But I can't bring myself to stop playing; I guess I kinda have a completionist attitude.

[BigDEvs]

I actually review video games for companies so I get a lot of games. I have just been added to a list to receive Bulletstorm!!

newest game - Assassins Creed Brotherhood
console - Xbox 360 (I also have a PS3 and Wii)
favourite game - Legend of Zelda: Ocarina in Time, Super Mario Sunshine, Halo Reach, Fallout 3
favourite type of game eg. shooter, adventure, RPG: I love FPS, Adventure RPG and retro games. I am definitely from the original Nintendo Gen, so I love my old school Nintendo games as much as my Xbox shooters!

So, are we allowed to trade gamer tags on here, or would we need to email each other about that? I would love to have new friends on xbox, if anyone is interested.

That's actually a really cool idea! Perhaps we should have a new topic where people can post gamertags/PSN IDs/friend codes for individual games etc.? That way nobody has to dig through a topic to find somebody specific.

Also, I don't have a subscription most of the time (too dang poor! ) but I'd be more than happy to add you all the same. What games do you have?

If you ignore the name, the "Cooking Mama" games are really cool, but they are for DS only I think. I can't think of a lot of other games that are cooking only though. If you know of some others let me know, I'm obsessed with food too lol.

[Mr.Rainey]

I just got Xbox live, please PM me if you want my tag. (I am not putting it on here cuz I don't want 9813278497 random people I don't know getting ahold of it)

[Dante]

Am I the only one who REALLY wants a 3DS, but can't afford one? (I've been waiting so long for 3D gaming, and I never upgrade my handhelds until something really new comes out--My most recent is a DS Lite)

[malinkibear]

Unfortunately I don't have the money to really play games much, so I'm kinda stuck with old PC games on my shoddy laptop. I'm currently playing through Arcanum, which is pretty fun. I'm also into browser-based games, I'm enjoying a strategic WWI game right now. Stuff is addictive.
I dream of the day I can build my own amazing rig and have a game collection on the walls ;_;
