I don't know if you have any brothers or sisters but I do. I hate it. When I buy a game she treats the game like it is hers and throws it all about my room. She plays the game all the time and I can't get to use it. If she wants a game and I want a game it is always me who will end up buying it as she prefers to spend money on useless crap! When I get Midtown Madness 2 for christmas I will buy a Sidewinder Steering wheel for the PC but I just know that shee will A-ruin it or B-us it all the time.
What am I to do (appart from the extreame of killing her thats just sad!) ?????????

you two have aggressive approaches don't you! what ever happened to discussing things?
just get a lock for your bedroom door or something.

Tickle her until she finally let's go or beat hard on her arm, and wait for parents to come up, while they wait for you hide in the cupboard.
I don't like breaking games, I had to claim some insurance money and it took along time(as long as it would takle my stingy sister to pay up)
plus she works in Boots the Chemist and buys my gel and shampoo so she deserves a play every now and then! she just doesn't tell me! and she erases my game!! I would kill her but Iheard that you can get arrested for that kind of behavior, so i just take my console out with me. maybe I could make a protective force field to stop her getting to the console.

I know what you're going through, I have a sister exactly the same. But she is 18. Which is rather worrying, at times.
Anyway. The next time she throws your games around the room, go to her room, pick something up she likes, and tell her you will break it unless she stops. Obviously she won't stop, so throw her thing at the wall.
This will cause 1 of 2 things to happen.
1) She will stop. Problem solved.
2) She will throw things harder. This is more likely.
If she chooses two, say you will throw her thing again, wait for her to throw your thing, then throw her thing AT her. She'll go running off. It was probably a good idea to choose something soft. Not, for example, her favourite Samuri throwing knifes.
This will work. Then she will find parents. She will tell them you threw her toy at her. Up come parents. At this time, find the game she was throwing.
Once again, multiple choice time:
1) Leave the game as it is. The most sane thing to do.
2) If you like your chances, break the game. Smash it.
Up comes parents. "What've you done to your dear, innocent, sweet sister?"
"Look what she did to my game!"
"Did you do this [name of sister]"
"No! Honestly I didn't!"
The blame suddenly switches to her. She should be made to pay for game. Case closed. She is unlikely to throw games again.
There is a easier method, that doesn't involve throwing things at her. And that's basically breaking the game, and the next time she throws it, pick it up, and say "Oh NO! What've you done!"

eating her sounds like a good idea, but I would buy a steering lock for the wheel, then she can't use it! ha ha ha, but eat her if it doesn't work.
My sister knows not to muck around, my sound equipment is too senstive for someone to come in and play around, if she touches it her fingers get chopped off.
i'm not joking.
