I think this thread has hit it's sweet spot when we fingered a video game character. Then it burst into life with the Nordic heat happy ending.

If you have loads of spare time and no in progress games defo. Bear in mind that it'll be a tenner or so in about Feb going by game depreciation rates lately though. I'd love it myself but I'm snowed under with essays at present (3 to do before the Xmas break) so will probably wait till it comes down. I've only really just started fallout new Vegas and have had that for ages. Bloody kids and essays have stalled a once promising Xbox career. I'll never forgive them but if I moved into the shed i'd end up spider food.

It won't be. Oblivion only dropped below £20 very recently despite being around basically since release. These games come around once in a while, and unlike FPS games people who buy them don't return them as liberally.

Check the Pokemon games on the NDS for example. Even pre-owned they're still £20 even the ones that have been out for three years.

It'll stick around the £30 mark, £25 pre-owned until this time next year.

Pokemon games on the gameboy color are fetching $30-40 here used. It's absurd. Still, this is the kind of game that lasts, there's no equal to it, and I don't imagine a sequel (let alone a competitor) any time soon to warrant a price drop.

To be honest, if you don't know of it, or haven't been interested in games like it before (Oblivion, Fallout 3 etc), the chances are it's not your cup of tea.

The mrs wanted to see what all the fuss was about so sat there for about 20 minutes while I smelted some ore, made some daggers then sold them - then kind of looked at me like I was an idiot and went back to her cross-stitching.

Oh, I'm also in a relationship with a big, burly, bald nord. Which confused her.
