I'm a cheap bastard because I'm currently unemployed, but this is the thread where we talk about buyin' shit!

I might buy Assassin's Creed because it's only $5 on Steam right now, and I really need to buy a coat for winter, but that's probably fashion-thread territory.

    I think AC is the only polished big-budget title I've ever purchased and played for less than a couple hours before never playing it again.

    I never even consciously made a choice to stop playing.

    It's just...something I never clicked on after the first few sessions of play.

    Like, where the fuck is the GAME?

    That's the thing, if I don't want to go, I know a ton of people that want to but have no money that could buy the ticket from me later on.

    Surely the solution is to buy them both as close together as possible, then you can listen to remastered Beatles tracks on the go on a fancy new media-thingy.

    I've used Creative Zens, Zunes and iPods

    and probably my favourite system to use browse is Creative but their mp3 players die on me. The Zune menu system is also really nice to use and I've quickly adapted to it and the iPod is honestly my least favourite system to use
