It's amazing what boredom can do to a person.
Anyway, so many murmuring mongoons on here have been posting utter tripe asking for ways they can get a game because they don't have enough cash. Now, I feel I can be of service.
At least try and enjoy my kindness! It doesn't come too often you know.
1) POKEMON
Yes, these hugely annoying creatures are in fact good for something. There are plenty of ways you could conjur up a game using these critters. Firstly, head down to your local paper shop and buy ten pounds worth of Pokemon cards(remembering to remain discrete) then make your way to e nearby kindergarten or primary school with a pack or two of Pokemon cards and you should get a number of deals there. But watch out for the teachers, they could think you're a total freak with no life that's trying to scam off little children.
If that fails, there's no way this will. GameBoy owners just simply need to swap one of their best games for a Pokemon game and then with the Pokemon game, head down to a nearby youth club, create a crowd and start your own bid. You should amount up to fifty or sixty quid, more than enough to buy a PC, GC, PS2 or Xbox game.
Or, if you've got little relatives and you're not a very nice person, you could pinch their pokemon goods and flog them off somewhere for a nicely rounded amount of money, then go and buy the game you've always wanted.
Who said Pokemon was such a bad thing?!
2) BLAME A GAME
Pretend you are mad, slip on the balaclava knitted by your nan, equip yourself with the Ak47 you got imported from America over the net, then head over to your local Virgin Megastore and wipe Richard Branson dry!(of videogames of course) If you think the AK47 is too much hassle for the job, don't worry, just go back on Ebay and you'll find yourself a better deal with magnums, uzis, berettas, all coming from America, and you could even get yourself a pile of plutonium or two from North Korea.
Once you've packed your school bags full of the latest videogames that you've always wanted, step outside of Virgin and get caught by the swarm of armed policemen. Then, for your statement at the station, if you're an Xbox fan or something, blame the one of your enemy's game like say Sony, for influence. You could easily say "it was The Getaway" or "it was GTA Vice City that made me do it" and you'll be walking out of that station in no time, with the games you stole of course.
3) DRAMA QUEEN
Go to any games shop that you're familiar with after receiving acting classes somewhere, or if you're a good enough acter/lier, just go straight in and pretend you're actually intending to buy game by looking intersted as you spectate the shelves. Then, once you've picked the game you've been desperately wanting, head over to the checkout with it and unleash the waterworks.
You have to be crying and pleading for this game otherwise it won't work. You must be on your hands and knees going insane in front of everyone in the shop to see, and this will make the till person (preferably a lady) have pity on you, and you'll walk out that shop with the game in no time. The plan won't work though if you don't seriously meditate over films like Forrest Gump, Menace to Society and The Green Mile.
So get them waterworks going and all the acting talent inside of you out, and you'll get the game of your choice, and all the witnesses in the public will think you're fantastic!
4) TRADE STANDARDS
If you're tall enough and you have the correct stature this will work a treat. Collect a nice suit from one of the family's closet as well as nice pointy shoes, a suitcase and The Simpsons tie, and then slip on women's aftershave. Now, you have the perfect trade standards person attire.
Simply put on a business man like strut (waddling your shoulders left to right) and walk into the shop of your choice with a mean look on your face. The members of staff of the shop will instantly assume that you're a VIP, so immediately head to one of them and announce with a deep vioce that you're from Trade Standards and you have been assigned to collect a number of games for assessment. Once the person at the counter totally falls for this, head over to the shelves, pick the games you desire to "assess" and head back to the counter with them. The till person will then give you the games, so you then open your formal suitcase with fake paperwork inside with Trade Standards written all over to convince he or she that you really are from Trade Standards, place the games inside and go home to a nice cup of tea and a job well done.
5) GAMES COMPENSATION
Making sure you dress up all trendy like, head down town. Pretend you're a carrier bag examiner and go into all the trendy clothes shops in town, making sure to collect their carrier bags. Pack these bags to make them look full with clothes you brought from home and then head down to your main destination.
Any shop that sells games would do, but the ones with shiny, slidey floors will do best. Making sure you obscure the cameras view and other members of the public with one side of your body, get your bottle of water out and spill it beside you on the floor. Then make your way a good distance from it, still pretending like you're looking for a game to buy from the shelves, and walk back to where you spilled the water. Now the cameras should be able to see you, so slip on the floor making sure you bang your head very hard off the surface. You don't need to pretend for this bit, because nature will take its course and you'll be yelling and screaming in agony anyway. Soon enouogh, crowds will gather, shop assistants will arrive and then the ambulance.
After they establish physical damage to your body, then you can claim compensation, but no ordinary compensation of money, but of games. You'll be happy, everything will be dandy and you'll play happily ever after!
All these ideas are brilliant, and of course if they don't work you could try getting a job, earn some honest money and BUY the game you've always wanted like every other normal person.
Well, there you have it! My most sarcastic post yet, which was vigorously inspired by the world famous book "My Wicked Thoughts", by the Belgian Author-Total Deceit.
Okay, I'll stop now.
