Everyday we are all faced with decisions, when to get out of bed, what to eat, what to wear, where to go and many many more. Seeing as this topic is about games this post should be about games to I guess.

We have to make decisions with games too. Like, what console to buy/play, what game to buy/play, who to play against. There are also many more decisions that could be made.

But sometimes some of us are forced to make decisions that you aren't normaly expected to make. My questions are these,

1. If you were offered a pirate copy of a hugely awaited game like MGS2 before its release at a reduced price. Would you buy it?

2.If you were offered a stolen import of a gamecube or x-box would you buy it for (GC-£100, X-Box- £200) Would you buy one/both? If yes which?

3. If a large developer asked you if you wish to design your own game and turn your idea into a game would you accept?

Now think how long it took you to make those decisions. Did you think about the consequences of each one or did you just take the first answer from the tip of your tounge?

Soory, reply to Q1 should be:

If it was the full game and NOT just a DVD with a load of bollards on.

If I had a PS2, yes definately. If it was the full game, and just some DVD with a load of bollards on.

2.If you were offered a stolen import of a gamecube or x-box would you buy it for (GC-£100, X-Box- £200) Would you buy one/both? If yes which?

Only if it could play UK games, otherwise you'sd have to buy imports all the time.

3. If a large developer asked you if you wish to design your own game and turn your idea into a game would you accept?


Yes.

#No, because I would like the offical version with all the trimmings#

2.If you were offered a stolen import of a gamecube or x-box would you buy it for (GC-£100, X-Box- £200) Would you buy one/both? If yes which?

#No, waste of money. Even if I was given one I'd try to sell it, for reasons that are too long to post here#

3. If a large developer asked you if you wish to design your own game and turn your idea into a game would you accept?

#Definitely#

The decisions I make are always wrong. I think I've inherited a faulty decision making gene from my ancestors.
But to answer your questions:

1. No. I'd suspect the geezer to be a fraudster.
2. No. I'd think it was faulty or a prototype or something.
3. Yes. But only if a contract was involved.

I'm so sensible. I think?
