Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) I am<removed by staff> from India and I want to play the new Plants Vs Zombies™ Battle for neighbourville . But(t) my father has a i3 3210 PC with no you and he doesn't even let me play on it because he thinks that l am responsible for the failed activation of Ms office (he is not fool , just doesn't understand anything tech related and doesn't trust me ) So how can I convince my parents to get me a gaming PC and the game (I once asked my parents for Xbox one, they fainted after knowing about the $500 price) I will be be the topper this time (maybe this will help ) Edited July 4, 2020 by SansVarnic Removed content.

Posted September 9, 2019 Going to be honest with you my dude, you might just have to go out and do odd jobs for people in exchange for money in order to afford this system as it sounds like your parents aren't particularly receptive to purchasing new tech. However, if you still want them to purchase it for you the best thing you can do is price out the cheapest PC parts possible that will allow you to run the games you want or go the traditional route of budget gaming and find a used Dell Optiplex and slap a reasonably priced GPU in there for even less. If the price is low enough they could be more receptive to purchase. Best of luck in your efforts though 乇乂丅尺卂 丅卄工匚匚 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted September 9, 2019 you dont convince them. you start saving the money yourself. and it doesnt need to be a whole lot to get a pretty decent system going or getting a used xbox or playstation.

Posted September 10, 2019 This is going to sound like awful life advice, but you don't need 10 hours sleep a night. Most people would say you can get away with 8 as a healthy amount. Regardless of if you take my questionable medical advice(), if you can find time in your schedule to do do errands for people etc, for a little bit of money, then you can get started on putting it towards a gaming PC. LTT videos and plenty of others have proved you can put a basic gaming PC together without spending a huge amount; Just make sure you have an attainable specification in mind, and go for it my dude ⠀⠀⠀⣴⣴⡤ ⠀⣠⠀⢿⠇⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⢷⡗ ⠀⢶⢽⠿⣗⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣼⡧⠂⠀⠀⣼⣷⡆ ⠀⠀⣾⢶⠐⣱⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣤⣜⣻⣧⣲⣦⠤⣧⣿⠶ ⠀⢀⣿⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠛⠿⣿⣿⣷⣤⣄⡹⣿⣷ ⠀⢸⣿⢸⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠈⠙⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿ ⠀⠿⠃⠈⠿⠆⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠹⠿⠿⠿ ⠀⢀⢀⡀⠀⢀⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⡀⡀ ⠀⣿⡟⡇⠀⠭⡋⠅⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⢰⣟⢿ ⠀⣹⡌⠀⠀⣨⣾⣷⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⠔⠌ ⠰⣷⣿⡀⢐⢿⣿⣿⢻⠀⠀⠀⢠⣿⡿⡤⣴⠄⢀⣀⡀ ⠘⣿⣿⠂⠈⢸⣿⣿⣸⠀⠀⠀⢘⣿⣿⣀⡠⣠⣺⣿⣷ ⠀⣿⣿⡆⠀⢸⣿⣿⣾⡇⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣗⣻⡻⠿⠁ ⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⢸⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe stop playing games and find casual work? 4 hours ago, SeAsOn3 said: the last time i saved was ₹3500 and that's 1/10 of the price of a xbox And every time I save money my mom takes it. so she took ₹3000 that time Why not open your own bank account? Or hiding your money better? To be real, did you mum say why she take the money? They are many reason why they won't buy you computer/gaming console is probably because they know from "study//news" gaming is bad for children etc or just a money issue. Consider second hand machine from your family/friends or online/recycle shop etc. Magical Pineapples
