Gawd I remember being young and broke. I'm sure glad those days are over but yea I do feel for ya.
Oh man tell me about it. Young and broke and the only thing for dinner was ketchup and water to make tomato soup, or $0.37 top ramen.
I'm so glad those days are long long past. Very pleased that computer games back in those days for me consisted of
"
You are walking down a hall way, to the East & West you see a door, the hallway continues North into the darkness"
"
What do you do"?
EAnd were played on my brothers second hand Tandy computer hooked up to a black and white 12" television. Not sure what I would have done to get $60.00 to buy a game like Skyrim if there was such a thing back then. Well, nothing illegal, that's for certain.
Oh, and heck, while I know it feels difficult, you can always get it after release day, it's not like they are giving something special for pre-ordering it. Heck you might even get a better price and be able to afford the game with the money you have now early next year.
