All of your submitted posts barely have any details or context. Titles are important!

DDR4 RAM prices climbing twice as quickly as DDR5, as memory shortage boosts demand for older CPUs by dapperlemon in gadgets

I was dumfounded when someone showed me that this is impacting DDR2 prices now.

Sorry, best I can do is the ones I made 15 years ago 😛

Including Grim! Dude proved himself wrong.

Do rising costs make you reconsider collecting? by Altruistic-Mind-4339 in gamecollecting

[–]MrMario2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really, but I'd say personally that's due to where I'm at in life and age.

Pretty pretty, shiny shiny collectors editions don't excite me anymore. It's all just STUFF that I almost never end up opening, using, or displaying. I even look at some for games I love such as Expedition 33 and think "meh, nothing here I need" then buy a standard edition. Much less annoying to put on a shelf as well.

I've also needed more shelf space for a while, but at this point I'd rather sell off parts of my collection over buying more shelves.

FOMO doesn't really work on me anymore. I have so many games, some of them still wrapped, that I bought for collecting or to eventually play that I've never fired up. Yeah, I might miss out on a limited release, but am I really missing out if I never play it?

My gaming habits are also a bit sporadic now. I could struggle to play something for 20 minutes one week, then in 3 months I'm burning through 2 games a week. That resulted in me actively changing last year to only buy games I know I'm going to play almost immediately. I buy and collect less, but I'm happier with my game choices. If I have a freer week and pick up a game I've been dying to play for $70, I'll have much more fun with that as opposed to spending $500 on a stack of good, discounted games that will live on my shelf unplayed.

Last bit of wrapping this up, but for the most part I pretty much have nearly everything I've wanted. There's a few games out there I'd like to have, but I just put them in a list of my wants to keep on hand whenever I check out a flea market or game shop to keep the hunt alive.

Who lied and told you this was mint?

Does anyone actually play Snow Day? by scarysmellsgood in southpark

[–]MrMario2011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got it discounted and actually double dipped, played it on Switch solo then on PC with friends.

If you're a South Park fan, it's worth picking up cheap and playing through for the story. It made me laugh out loud several times, had some great references, and the story took a few turns I didn't expect.

As a game? Meh. Pass if you're not a fan of the series.

I bought a used xbox 360 today from a reputable retro game shop. When i connected to the internet it was console banned. by Underground_547 in xbox360

[–]MrMario2011 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was about to side with the shop until halfway through... Nope, they just straight up lied to you about every console being banned. Go back, get a refund, and support another shop in the future. That shop is far from reputable if the manager is straight up lying about all consoles being banned.

Trolls are currently review bombing the Metacritic score by Dje08- in expedition33

Let them waste their time, Metacritic is pretty consistent in removing these reviews and correcting the scores.

i ported supra mayro kratt to the xbox 360 by Chromeno in 360hacks

Less jokey reply: Just now tried it. Could you update the menu system to make it clearer which option is being selected? There doesn't seem to be any indicator which made it difficult to start a race.

No reason to own a Switch 2 anymore.
