[QUOTE="Nephilim83"] :D Thanks for the comment. My wife and I are all about family. When it all comes down to it **** a career! We both hate sticking our babies in daycare so much we used to cry when we left them. We definately want at least one of to be home with them instead. Stay at home parents are a must in my opinion. If anything else my family and I will pack up like a bunch of hippies and live in the woods as long as we get to be together. ;)Nephilim83

That's so great to hear man. Family is easily the most important thing in life. They are the ones who will be there for you through thick and thin. All the best to you and your family :)

Oh, and I apologize, TC, for getting off topic. I'm not poor, though, I got family. :) (Eeewww, that was cheesey. lol)

I too apologize to the TC. I am just as guilty as Nephilim for going OT hahaha. Being a gamer myself I would say that I am not poor. I also don't have THAT many expenses living at home still ;). Also, I think it would be tough for a "poor" person to purchase a consol that runs upwards of 450 dollars :P

[QUOTE="Nephilim83"] I used to work on an offshore drilling rig in the gulf of mexico as an assistant driller. I worked two weeks on and two weeks off each month. So, basically, I cleared over two grand per work week. Sadly, though, the economy went to hell and with the gas prices dropping companies stopped investing in oil wells. So my company went under (but they were plagued by years of poor financial management and a bad safety record). Anyway, I could get another job like that with my experience, but I've spent so much time away from my two toddlers that my wife and I thought it'd be a good idea for me to take a break. She's quitting after this year, so I'll get a new job during the summer. Hopefully. Tats are more of a hobby than anything, but i have a lot of friends that work at different shops in the area who get me some chair time if they are ever swamped, so there is always that. Either way, I'm never really poor! ;)Nephilim83

With the amount of people who focus solely on their careers and let their families grow apart. It is really nice to see that you and your wife came to that decision. Good on ya man :)

I can live with a Fall release. Gives me time to work through my collection :)

I don't blame you. When I first got my PS3 I was all about online gaming. I played RFoM and CoD4 hours and hours every day. Online gaming has become nearly intolerable for me. People just find cheap ways to win and then gloat about it after the match. Anytime I do well I'm always accused of something after the match is over. It's just too much annoyance to deal with. When I play, I just want to be able to relax and play. Not have to deal with people that are 5 years younger than me squealing about how bad I am even though I just beat them.

The thing that annoys me the most now is people making second accounts for games and decorating them because they think their good. You know what I'm talking about. xX_-(insert stupid name)-_Xx, i(insert stupid name)x-, or when people have it LoOk LiKe ThIS. I don't know why, I just find that stuff to be so annoying.

I can't wait fir InFamous to come out so I can play a nice single player game.

[QUOTE="Nephilim83"]My wifes a middle school teacher and I'm between jobs and currently staying home with the kids until summer to save us $800 bucks a month on daycare. So, all I do all day is play games. :D Anyway, even now at our lowest income and poorest financial state (I used to clear over $4000 a month til my company went bankrupt in january) I still find the money to get a new game almost every week. I do odd jobs and watch nieces and nephews and do tattoos for extra cash, so I always have that to throw at a game. I usually shop cheap, though. I'm often buying old PS2 games or used games at GS or on eBay. Its very rare I get a game for full price (like infamous (i paid on it a lil at a time, though)). Just have to be a smart shopper. ;)Nephilim83

Wow Whats your job? 4g a month aint too bad, and you do tats too nice

My guess is that alot of the ps3 owners (atleast on these forums) that do the complaining about game prices and such...are around 15-18 years old without a job.

In reality, paying 59.99-69.99 CAD is not THAT much money.

This is indeed good news. I was about to import it off play asia yesterday morning but I wasn't sure how much I had racked up on my VISA so far this month. Waited a couple hours till lunch so I could check out my balance...come back and the things already on back order againnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn lol.

Hopefully it won't take them too long to release it over here in NA. I mean, the Asian copy of the game already has english text and voice...

Yup, I got it earlier this morning. Just like the demo, I'm having a great time with the full game.

I'm currently working my way through career mode, and just learning how to really play well.

This is the truthhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

Not touching online until the controls are second nature

I have 4 broken Sixaxis' behind my PS3. 3 of them I spiked into the ground while playing CoD4. The crap people pull on that game just send me through the roof. My 2 Dualshock 3s have held up well against my anger. I tossed them on the ground several times and they still work fine.

I don't get that annoyed with single players game. I mean I'll get frustrated at certain parts, but I never have broken a controller because of it.

It always seems to be the multiplayer that gets to me too hahahaha.

I use to chuck my knucks at my computer monitor in my CS days hahahahahahahahahahahaha

just popped the game in around 30 minutes ago. I am currently going through the tutorial and stuff since I didn't download the demo.

I can already tell that this game is going to have a pretty deep learning curve. This is something I was hoping for....

I think you will enjoy!
