"Am I jinxing the world of gaming?"

I'm sorry, you can call me paranoid if you wish but it seems wherever my interests take me things go wrong. I started out console gaming when I bought a SNES off my brother. Shortly after this SNES began to wither and die, it had had a good long life producing many great titles so I thought nothing of it. However my next veture was to the N64 which promptly withered and died leaving only a trail of 4 seriously good titles behind it. Next I choose to save up my pennies and purchase a PS2. Now all I hear is negativaty regarding almost all aspects of the PS2 except for GT3 and MGS2.
Is it happening again??
Please someone, fill me with confidence!

I've got loads of work to do also.
In fact its good that your going 'cause the fewer people there are around here the greater chance there is of it getting done!
bye for now!

Sorry mate, i cant play, also i got to go in a bit, go loads of uni work to do today.

Don't know, sorry.
I'm newer than you to all this craziness.
I think?

Game of chess?

Seems that way mate. I feel like i live here now! Is there any way of seeing how many posts peolple have made?

Just to be on the safe side I won't buy a GBA!

Is it just me and you around here again Your Honour?

Sorry about the excessive use of exclamation marks in that last post by the way. I got a bit carried away.

Exactly! If they have poor money management skills its not our fault is it!

Ah-ha! I feel free of guilt now!

So I'm not the only one!
Thinking about it by providing Nintendo, Dreamcast(sega) and Sony with money by buying their consoles we're actually assisting them and therefore exempt from any responsibility for their deaths.

To be honest with you, its probably me more than you, cos i had a SNES, then an N64, now ive got a DC and look whats happened there!

Stop claiming all the credit for yourself!

Hopefully it wont happen to my next purchase cos i want to get a GBA.

Sorry but I was relying on someone to explain why it wasn't all my fault. Since no-one has I must assume it is all my fault and rather than sit around crying about it I thought I would become an evil criminal mastermind!
