Where do I start.. Runescape, Need for speed world, CS:GO, Nether, Most Xbox 360 Purchases, Letting a friend buy me BF4,Anything Nexon, anything I spent on Nexon since they came to the US(I played MS before they owned(rekt) it.) Let's just say it was A LOT.

 

Gaming related, Turtle beach headset, a4tech keyboard, anything madcatz I ever bought for my console(s), choosing a 23" TV for a monitor instead of a real monitor.

 

Good regrets: Minecraft (I have wasted so many hours on this game its sad, can't wait to play it again!), Warframe $150USD Spent I regret I can't spend more, Unturned Gold (Only 60ish hours, but this game is great and looks to only be getting better).

3k? holy shit

Considering how much time I've wasted with that game, it's not a good return. I could have been working part-time whilst going to school.

 

In retrospect, I kind of regret it.

Buying The Matrix Online when it released in 2005, played it for an hour, never touched it again after that. It was the worst game I have ever bought!

As far as the PC goes: Buying that switcher game on Steam. Doesn't even start up. All I get is a black screen.

 

Gaming in general: Selling my SEGA Saturn collection and a few Gamecube games.

 

I don't really play many games for gameplay anymore honestly. I play most games just for the graphics.

Buying a mac. 0/10 would not recommend to a friend. 

HP Pavilion p007tx (i5 4210u, gt840m, 8GB DDR3 memory and a 1 TB HDD that makes cool sounds when booting up) 

Since my laptop can't run modern games too well I use a PS4

Mine would have to be spending way too much money on CSGO and a lot of the times not spending that much time w my family due to gaming.

 

Dude I think the same but without the family part. 

 

But Yes, each time I think, I can get that skin so I throw 20 bucks on my wallet and spent everythink getting shitty cheap skins.....fucking hate that.

 

But lovin the game tho!
