What I said could be interpreted as a little ignorant, but it's not as ridiculous as using that pitiful excuse of being a pity hungy poor kid that can only afford a single console. If you just recently got into gaming, then that's understandable. Being a gamer, I play games, not consoles. I had put a lttle on the side every now and then to save up for each system, but you might not be old enough to hold a real job. Like I said, if you're young, it's excusable, but buying games that are a third the price of a PS2 or xbox and then spiffing the idea that you're below the poverty line is just trash.
Heh, I'm old enough to be your old man, most likely.
When you have mouths to feed, a roof that needs to be kept over their head, bills to pay, as well as supplying the necessities of life like clothing, school supplies, and the like, gaming takes a back seat.
One day you'll realize that.
I had all the systems, but I had to start selling things off once I went through my savings. What was the first thing to go? My videogames. Why? Because games, in the greater scheme of things, are not a necessity. They're just a diversion.
So, before you go spouting off about how "real" gamers need to "save for each system", you should really ask yourself why they should need to own every system to be considered a "gamer". Just because someone doesn't have the time/inclination/money to own every system released, doesn't make him/her less of a "gamer" than you or me.
Actually, I have greater respect for those people who can limit themselves to one or two consoles, because they will most likely help decide the future of the industry. The ONE CONSOLE FUTURE!!
