Picture the scene .... you return home from work/school to find your house has been ransacked, you notice your 'Cube is still there but there is a post-it note on your tv screen which reads "I have stolen your memory card call 01234 567890 with an offer for it's safe return, beware you can only make one offer. If it's too low you memory card will be formatted (the F word) and returned to you. If the offer is sufficient I will return it no harm done" (It was a big post-it note).

So how much would you offer, what is your memory card worth to you ?

HMm, I think that's a fake number. And a fake story.

YOU LIE.

I'll steal your memory card, leaving everything else.

Yes, VERY believeable.

YOU LIED.

Who leaves their own phone number?

The situation is pretty unrealistic. If someone robs a house, they don't take a memory card and not the console it's made for. :-D

But, anyway, I wouldn't offer anything. It's a memory card. I can play through my games again. If it was something more important than a memory card, I just go to the police with the telephone number to trace it.

There's always a solution. ;-)

Checked my spelling? I missed an 'a' out of Clearly. I think its called a Typo but I suppose you are above them with these sophisticated topics. You must be a whizz at school...

clerly haven't checked your spelling. I was supposed to be a fun topic, nice to see a few sensible answers, the rest of you obviously are above general chat.

Depends which one they took, if it was my card with master mode unlocked on SMB i would pay £18, if it the SMB2 card i would pay £25.

£10. So many hours of gameplay have gone into those games. And to get where I have required loads of effort. To lose it all would be a killer.
