personally, i no longer have time, and i barely even keep up anymore. I was wondering if any of you had the same problem.

Last 2 weeks on steam ive had 19 hours. I mainly play tf2 so maybe 10 hours a week at most. Ive seen some sad bastards rack up 120 hours plus inside of 2 weeks.

0hrs. I've been mulling over buying a 360. I almost took a trip to Sainsbury's in Linlithgow today to pick one up super-cheap; £139 for the 60GB model. Couldn't be arsed though.

i bought a PS3 back in June and i haven't played since school began in august

Zero.

And its been that way for about a year now.

I have a computer that was worth $3,000 last year, and it just sits in a spare room. It's got 1TB of space hardly touched. Actually, there is a fair bit of music on there. But the quad core isn't really needed.

But in reality i could do fine with a basic setup for internet browsing and email.

I'm thinking of getting a PS3 for bluray and a couple of games. Don't know if I really have the time anyway since I don't even remember the last time I watched a movie.

what do you do ninty? in terms of career.

ninty · 10-03-2008, 04:23 PM

I'm a Project Manager for an oil and gas manufacturing company. We build trucks that service oil wells. My job is kind of like a coordinator between sales, engineering, fabrication, purchasing and the customer.

I like my job, which is important. When I first started, it was difficult because the position didn't exist until I started, and I had never done anything like it before. it took me a month before I started to feel comfortable. For the first month I woke up every day dreading going to work. But after that initial bit of figuring stuff out, it's been pretty good and I've learned a hell of a lot.

Oh yeah, and now I can't afford $3,000 computers anyway because I have to pay rent, groceries, insurance, gas, cell phone etc. Welcome to the real world. I get payed decently, but I would make more somewhere else for sure, but i'm pretty loyal to the company i'm working for and I like it. I would take less money to be happy with my job. I don't think there is anything worse than going to a job you hate. I know for some people there isn't much choice, but I would do everything to get out of that kind of situation.

sounds decent man. My job sucks and it's temporary. I hate getting up to do the shit. I feel like like agent smith sometimes when he asked neo "why
....why get up!?" I need to get in school seriously...

yeah even with the price drops I cant bring myself to buy a 360... I mean, honestly, your biggest investment is going to be in buying the games anyway... too expensive in the end.
