She doesn't want you to be alone playing games, she wants you to play with her. :P

EDIT: Okay, sorry for the immaturity. Hey, you could tell her that GTA4 plays music!

She's getting in the way of your gaming. I think it's time you let her be free.

I think you should tell her it's time to go your seperate ways. Either that or buy a game that you know she would be addicted to.

yeah i agree with her, buying Bioshock/Halo3 and wanting COD4 after is pretty pointless cause to her she always sees a FPS. why not switch it up get a wii and see if you can get her to understand why you play games.

Come to think about, in time, if they had a child, they could play E-rated games with him. There's an example of gaming. Though the TC would have to wait a couple of years, because I don't know how many people approve of a baby playing games.

EDIT: Oh, I looked a couple of posts below. Oops.

Man, being married really must get in the way of doing what you want to do. It goes to show that you shouldn't get married unless you want your fun life to be over.For the young dudes, make sure you get married no younger than 35. What's the point these days of marrying younger? Have your fun with various girls, who don't nag, then get on with your life.

Just tell her she's probably not going to end up in college the way our education system is getting funded.

just rent then makes sense. i'm helping you bro buy your favorite Online FPS and thats all you need. you can't reallyt be good at an online MP game if you keep switching games anyways.Gamefly is you friend, if you come across a must buy then buy it. but if you buy games and get bored and don't wanna play them after awhile then just use gamefly. Finances can be here or there don't just throw away cash for all this trash. i buy games sometimes years after when there $20 Imagine next year COD4 will be 24.99.

Wow, low blow on her part. Well as I see it you have 2 options.

1. concede, you do have a lot of games and push comes to shove you can trade in a few or rent them. Though you need to make her understand that gaming is your hobby. Also, I would tell her that you understand where shes coming from and that you will cut back on your gaming purchases.

2. you can always hit back with another low blow, what kind of hobbies does she enjoy? You can point out the same thing she did. Of course that's not going to do you ANY good and will result in more fighting I'm sure.

Really I think your best bet is just to pick one you really want and trade a few games in for it.

Oh god no :lol: A practical solution would seem to be budgeting. Aside from bills which I assume is already budgeted, work out other priorities (if she wants to bring up a college fund, plan out savings rather than assuming every dime has to go to that) and eventually get down to what leisure funds are left and divide that. If your bases are covered, you should be able to spend for what you want. But I'm not really in a position to judge the practicality of that. Of course, I'd also suggest not bringing it up in a gaming forum.

Eightgames in four months does seem pretty excessive. I dont have enough time to play that many games and I'm just a college kid. I dont see how anyone could play all of those games on top of havinga job and a wife and a kid.

8 in the last 4 months. $60 a pop.

and i just told her i want cod4 and assassins creed. she got hot. we got the money but shes tired of me spending so much on gaming. i might have to stop gaming cause 360 is getting to many games i want. and ive yet to tell her i want mass effect and gta 4.

oh boy!

HeHateMe_basic

Gamefly 2 at a time plan is the answer you are seeking, $21 a month.

$42 over two months instead of what, 8 games at $60 plus tax . . . . $500+

Plus, if the game sucks, send it back get another instead of being stuck with it.

thats because your 15 and you dont know jack crap about being married or having a wife and what you have to go trought to make them happy, youll see when your bigger and married, things are totally different. when your 15 your still a kid! sorry !! but trust me! but just in case if his financial status is sufering then dont spend your money, he said that they have the money so its not a problem... to the origional poster just buy your games, buy her one or two and she will definetly be happy. or take out to dinner and a movie. she will love you 4 ever
