I bought a new system every 6 months, so it spread out over 2 years to get them....................then I got laid off because of the economy in this area, so I will just sit on the old systems until I get back on my feet. Maybe I can win the Lotto..............might have to actually play it to win it............and at least get 2 new gen consoles so my wife and I can still game together. I used to be able to save money wisely, then I bought a house and lost my job...............keep a lot of cash in your savings account is all I can say!!!
