I wish I had the money to find having to take my car to the car wash, amusing.
tinyE: The problem is in SMC they give you the current value. He pays $30 for Quake 2 and several years later his lady destroys the cd he gets the current value of Quake 2; maybe $5? That is so unfair. He should get back the $ he spent on those games.
BlueMooner: While it's small consolation, be glad it wasn't his dick. There seem to be more and more stories of females who feel justified, for whatever reason, in cutting off their man's penis.
Disk copies and cloud backup reduce this to nothing more than some broken plastic. I hope he made those copies.
nightrunner227: those were all Xbox 360 games, which can't be booted from a backup disc as far as I know. Also, anyone else get the feeling the writer was a girl who enjoyed the idea an who just stuck small- claims case to the end in order to make it sound unbiased? Most likely what you just wrote here is the truth.
Elenarie: If you're going digital to avoid your games being destroyed by your girlfriend or ex girlfriend... forget the stupid games, you have serious issues.
jamyskis: This. I would say that the girlfriend is more in need of replacement than the games.
My girlfriend is a 'casual' gamer in the most literal sense of the word. She got together with me in full knowledge of the fact that I'm a gamer. She accepts it. I must say for my part that I do make an effort in our relationship, which it sounds this guy didn't, but I know I can trust my girl to not pull off childish shit like this guy's girl did. You never really know what kind of person the woman you are with is...until she becomes extremely unhappy. I learned that lesson, the hard way. One should always go digital or lock up his stuff.
