The challenge.

with 9 comments

The challenge:

I will not spend cash dollars USA money on videogames until december 25th, 2010… including applications for my iphone or ipad.    Except in the following cases:

A.  I can trade in games I have for new games.

B.  My Xbox 360 pretty much has a timer on it that will expire soon (probably), when that happens it will be replaced for a (hopefully) small fee.

C.  Money that is already on my PS3 account (since this cannot be refunded)

D.  I can and will accept all gifts.

The reasons:

1.  I buy a lot of videogames even when I have many I still love and need to finish (hereby known as the ‘pile of shame’).

2.  Arnee and I would like to save more money because I guess married people worry about the future and shit.

Why it should be easy:

1.  I have gamefly and can rent most games within a few days of their release.

2.  I have a network of friends and other avenues to get my hands on most anything.

3.  My pile of shame is at an all time high and I would really like to make a dent into it.

Why it won’t be easy:

1.  Videogames are like crack to me.

a.  I MUST own them on day one or they are dirty germ infested whores.

b.  I MUST always have new stuff, anything more than a week old is OLD FUCKING NEWS.

2.  Im used to buying what i want, when I want.

On paper it seems really fucking easy.  But, like, really, really hard.   Feel free to comment on whether you think i’ll be able to do it or if I will sail the failboat.

  1. Oh boy…… October or November possibly but that’s a distant and very specific date.

    Either way, good luck with the challenge sir.

  5. You’re about to enter a terrifying new phase of your married life: the lying years.

    If this holds past October 31st, I’ll know you’re lying to us, her, and yourself.

  6. I entered the lying phase a long, long time ago. Don’t forget, I was once an alcoholic!

  8. You can do it. Maybe. I have complete faith that you’ll pull it off. Possibly. We’ll just have to wait and see.

    Good luck.
