Lightbulb What would you do for gaming?

This is off of the other threads that were sparked by me, and off of the Klondike ice cream bar commercial. What lengths would you go to for gaming?

I would give up candy for a year to keep gaming!


Keep it real, keep it funny!

Re: What would you do for gaming?

assuming that not performing this sacrifice will keep me from gaming ever again, I would give up one of my non-essential fingers or toes, as long as it would not keep me from joining the military. Not really that big a loss if you think about it.

I hardly ever eat candy, so I could do that.

What do you even need your little toe for anyways? I guess it helps you keep your balance, but I think you could get used to walking without it.


As for my self, I would give up TV or going to the movies (just one). I do both of them so rareley that it wouldn't be too much a lose, as long as I could game during that time.

I would give up hours and hours of time I could otherwise spend learning another language, professional development, home improvement projects, or just generally being a more responsible "adult"..........

Re: What would you do for gaming?

I'd suffer through my wife complaining about how much time I spend gaming. I'd also drop ridiculous amounts of money on hardware that, were it in a console, would cost 75% less. I'd put up with bug-laden software, smacktards on practically ever server, and nagging repetitive stress injuries induced my WASD keys.

Wait, I already do all that. You want me to give up something else, too?

Oh, what the hell, how about sex? I'm married anyway.
