    I would be very sad if I had to pay full price for Cryostasis. It's very so-so.

    I tend to enjoy so-so games. :) Maybe I'll find some enjoyment out of it.

    During the X-Mas sale, a guy in my little community gifted about 13 people Judge Dredd. :p For a dollar, it's a pretty good game.

    I don't think a credit card will help you in the long run financially.Btw Call of Duty:World at war seems to use Call of Duty 2's graphics engine but with enhancements.

    Hey, could you elaborate on that? Why would it not help me in the long run?

    Google the words "interest" and "debt".

    I guess you watched Zeitgeist too much... (a bit off topic) (their money=debt explanation is really cool)
    Credit Cards are good as long as you pay them without delays. The interest you pay on being late or paying the "mininum required" is what makes them evil.

    Back on the topic!
    I really wanted to pick elder's scroll oblivion... but its price never went down!!!
    Shame on you bethesda! (Not a shame for creating a masterful experience!)

    Only happens if you spend more than you have and/or don't pay it back on time. Absolutely no problem with credit cards if you make sure you have enough money, in fact, there are benefits e.g. discounts.

    Understand that credit cards are a tool created to generate profit for companies. Nothing wrong with that, but the profit comes from somewhere. Using a credit card is the same as buying a burger from McDonald's; you're paying to use it and making a profit for the company, one way or the other.

    There are a variety of ways in which credit cards are designed to squeeze money out of *every single penny* you put out onto it, from hidden fees to fluctuating interest rates and more. Making monthly payments on time doesn't prevent you from ultimately paying back the credit card company more than you spent in the first place unless your balance is zero at all times.

    The only advantage of credit cards is as a means with which to build credit or as a supplemental source of quick money for special circumstances. Almost always better to stick with your debit card/checking account.

    Oblivion was dirt cheap last month during the Bethesda weekend. I think the Game of the Year deluxe edition that I bought was only like $8.50 or so.

    say for example you get laid off your job and owe them money and you can't pay them they will do every thing in their power to get that money back I know because I parents owed a credit card company money at least 5 grand and the collection agents were almost as bad as loan sharks and they were unemployed when we moved to south Carolina.yes it has perks of having credit but has downfalls that isn't worth the risk of having one imo that why I don't own one and never want one just my credit/debit card but I mostly use debit so It takes out the money instantly.

    And all credit card companies have protection plans there to help card users in case they loose their jobs and can't make the payments.
    if the credit card users chooses not to make use of the protection plans, yes... they will have to deal with the consequences if they can't pay the bill.

    Having credit is needed to do... anything. Credit cards are fine, it's all in how you use them. Responsibility.
