Walk into a game store, $560 in pocket. What do you buy?

Do you mean The Exchange in Chicago? That store is so badass. I scored a real cheap Mario Paint w mouse, cheap comics, and a Bleach boxset there; while visiting the city with friends. I wish we had something more like that in Detroit!

Anyway, I wouldn`t blow it all at once, unless something really caught my attention. I'd rather just spend a little here, and there, knocking things off my wish list. That much credit can go a long way if you just take your time and have some fun with it. If nothing screams your name, I wouldn't just waste it.

A Wii or PS3 would be nice though if you don't have either already.

I'd sell the gift cards for 500 bucks and just keep the money for now...

If it has anime, get cowboy bebop! GREATEST SHOW EVER

Pre-order a Wii U

Build a gaming PC

Lots of possibilities.

I'd frankly pocket the money and save it for a rainy day. Possibly put it towards a nice sound system or TV.

I have about $800 in items I'm considering offloading myself. Not really sure what it'd go towards though. I do want a Pioneer Kuro...

Pioneer Kuro

The Pioneer Kuro series is very very good for movies. Not for games...

Pioneer plasmas are very susceptible to screen burn. Trust me on this one...

PS I had one...

If the gift cards can be sold or traded, that goes a long way toward a candy cab, just an idea

Or a NES PowerPak, a SNES PowerPak, a Mega Everdrive, an Everdrive 64 and a few cheap consoles...

Aside from the screen burning potential, what's wrong with the Kuro for games?

If it's a processing issue (like upscaling), I have an AV processor that does all of that incredibly well and input lag free.

That is all that is wrong with it and all that needs to be wrong with it... lol

Imagine playing a racing game for half an hour and then watching a movie after that.

Now imagine you can still see the speedometer for another 45 minutes whilst watching the movie.

That's Pioneer Kuro for you...

I never even dared playing for hours on that TV. That's why I got rid of it.

What good is a perfect image if you don't dare play on the screen...

CRTs are better for gamers.
Just sayin'
