What could you have used all the money you spent on gaming on instead?

On a robot-duck pet.

Beer. Lots & lots of beer.

hamburger

Gravity gun.

Nothing that's really worth the hours of entertainment and emotions I had while playing. :)
For thread-sake I'd say a trip to Australia, which I'd like to (and will) visit.

obv its weed

A good sports motorbike.

anime and sci-fi conventions

records and audio equipments.

Gaming overall? Oh damn, i don't even wanna think about it.. just noes.

But guess what, i won't regret of wasting my money at gaming stuff because i have fun playing games.

Socks.

Few sets of different dumbbells .

Other games.

I'd have bought different games.

Not all that much here. The guilt of gaming for me involves the time sucked out of constructive endeavors like writing or learning new skills.

• A few dates with my wife
• Half a mortgage payment
• Groceries for one month for my family
• Tuition for one month for my daughter
• Not quite one new laptop

Gaming is cheap for me, compared to real life. :)

I usually get about $.40-.75/hour for the entertainment of a game I finish. There is little in the way of entertainment, for me, that is better value. My other hobby used to be sports cars. This is nothing.

The only thing I get more for less out of as a hobby, is probably gardening. There is some ROI there, too, as I get to offset a few vegetable costs and the cost of cut flowers.

The only thing I can think of is food... I'm too cheap and greedy to spend enough on video games to actually be able to afford anything ELSE I want with that money... Then again I'm not even sure if I want anything else at all. O_o

Another hobby, of course.

I didnt spend money on games.

gold toilet

I could buy 2 happy meals

a new phone, PS3 or something?? :P

prostitutes and drugs.

I could have bought a car. Used on for sure, but a car. That's not counting on money I spent for a PC... that's another car.
