How am I still second in this list despite having not bought a PS4 and only spent around a tenner in the last three months?

Because you bought a WiiU; most people here probably aren't buying whole new consoles.

Oh yeah, I forgot that the new consoles actually launched last year.

To be fair, if it's at all accurate, gameifying something like this would be a lot more educational and potentially useful than shit like Street Cleaning Simulator and Bus Driving Simulator. Hell, it would be a lot more educational and potentially useful than pretty much anything else we all play (unless there's a 'Plumber and Electrician Simulator' getting a lot of play around here that I'm not aware of).

Today I dropped and smashed a brake light lense from a Rolls-Royce Phantom 3. I like the idea of risk free, virtual mechanicing.

I once lost my grip on a Maserati Tipo Birdcage while easing it off the ramp and it rolled into the garage door and crunched the back up.

Oh, shit; you're going to be disappointed now when it's not actually about tower-dwelling lesbians aren't you?

Also: why <all the money>?

Because it's about tower-dwelling lesbians.

I've spent <210.96> since I last updated. Highlights include Mario Golf, an ASCII Dreamcast pad, 12 months of Xbox live, Starblade Alpha and a ton of cheap Dreamcast games.

Bamba · **Joined:** 25th Jul, 2010 **Posts:** 11128

Oh, I bought a new wired Xbox pad for my PC so that's about <17> to my total. It's great, I've spent fuck all on games for ages because of the £30 of free credit I racked up a while back on the Amazon Android store. Sometimes I've had to wait a bit longer for stuff I was after to turn up there after the Play store (e.g. the Castle of Illusion remake) but that's fine when it's costing me nothing.

Only since yesterday. And no.

Excellent. You'll be needing to share your friend code then. I'm not sure what it does but it's nice to be social.

Also... Buy Kid Icarus.

myp · **Posted:** Thu Aug 28, 2014 16:07

My Nintendo Network ID is the same as on the Wii U - BritishNervoso. I'm assuming you can add me that way.

TheVision · **Posted:** Thu Aug 28, 2014 16:16

I'm not sure. I thought your friend code was a number on the 3DS?

I'll have a look later on.

Okay, a bit more precise now then.

Just Cause 2 <2.49>, Deus Ex: Human Revolution DC <3.24>, GTA Pack (GTA 3, 4, TFLC, SA, VC) <6.99>
Kinetic Void <3.74>, Testament of Sherlock Holmes <2.99>, Syberia Collection <1.09>
Splinter Cell Blacklist DE <6.24>, Mass Effect <1.99>, Trine Collection <2.69>, Tomb Raider DLC <0.97>
Transformers War for Cybertron <3.74>, Fable <1.39>, Tomb Raider <3.74>, Papers, Please <2.09>
Far Cry 3 Deluxe <4.99>, Humble 2k Bundle <4.74>, Humble Square Enix Bundle <4.45>
Fallout 3 GOTY <2.50>, CoD: W@W <5.00>, Mass Effect 1 <3.50>, Mass Effect 2 <4.00>

So, £72.57. (I'm suprised how close my £75 guess actually was)
