You traded the Gamecube version of a game for the version on the inferior PS2? For shame. :lol: ...Actually, I'm serious; why would you do that?[/quote]

right now, my Wii is hooked up to the TV in the living room. So I almost never touch it. But I have my backwards compatible PS3 hooked up to my VGA via HDMI -- so pretty much all games that are multi-platform I'll just opt for the PS2 version. It's not really a matter of "which is better," but rather "which will I most likely play more often"?

Cool finds, but I do not approve of your methods.
I not only approve, I will try to emulate it more often.
yea i think it's kind of funny. he didn't stick up an old lady, he just found a dummy and got a sweet deal. let's not lynch the guy over it.

store clerk should go... "no, no, no... that may be so, but the marked price is THE price" but that didn't happen.

i don't think it's right bragging about being deceitful and telling lies to an unknowing worker at a goodwill - which by the way hires MRDD people. i hate how people just assume they NEED to get a good deal at goodwill. god forbid if they should see a game marked at current market value at a goodwill. curse those bastards for looking up prices online.

the golden rule that i learned way back in grade school has always stuck with me: treat others as you would want to be treated.
if you took a shit, please put it back

Yup, that's what I used to do (and still do in most cases)...

You know where it got me?...

Nowhere...

Treating others poorly, however, can really come back to bite you in the butt.
