Sorry, I just had to use that title, shame I don't have much of a post to go with it.
Um, I'll improvise.
So, um, does anyone share their Playstation, or any other console with a sibling?
Find that you want to play GT3, but your sister is watching a Care Bears DVD on the PS2?
Mind you, if you share it, at least you always have someone to play multiplayer games with.
Another disadvantage could be that you have to take other people into consideration when you buy games, as if you bought a game no one else liked, would you ever find a suitable time to play it without arguements?
It's worse if you share games.
When I was around 10 I used to buy Sega Master System games in a group of 4 people, my brother and I, and a set of twins. Games were around £25 each, so we'd be able to get more games this way. Trouble was deciding on a game that everyone would like, and then deciding who gets to take the game home first. Got to play many games this way, but lost a few too.
So, um Sony and share - any thoughts?

Woah! Sounds like a hard start to your gaming life Tarrant! Are you bigger than him now? :-)
He didn't do much twisting in LA Confidential!
Anyway sharing stuff... I used to share an Atari ST with my older brother. We'd usually be given 2 or 3 hours on the thing and 90% of that would be my brother playing and me watchign and complaining that it must be my go soon.
Until I got old enough to assert myself properly! He was a crazy addict though, he became violently moody when he came away from a computer screen.
Things got bad when I got better than him at Street Fighter 2 on "his" SNES. If I won (which I usually did) I used to get a pad thrown at my head. After a while, 2 strange things developed. I learned how to lose at Street Fighter 2 and make it look like I'd really tried (there were occasional mis-haps followed by bruises) and I developed a nervous twitch - I used to "duck and cover" every time I won at Street Fighter, regardless of who I was playing.

Thank you.
Kevin Spacey always did it. In every movie, ever. If there's a twist, Spacey is probably behind it.

Hiya Meka! Nice ta see ya!
As for the sharing thing... never tried it myself, though I know a guy who does. He has a bro and a sis, who all share one of each type of console (DC, N64, PS2, PS etc...). They seem to get on fine, simply because there is always one console to use. However, if you`re all sharing the same console, then it could be quite surprisingly tough, as you say.
