How did CSS hurt your wallet if you don't mind me asking?

yea "upgrades make you play better" ( lol )
120 quid soundcard, 40 quid headset, 160 quid GPU, 180 quid RAM... im a skint studant and its money i dnt really have lol :P

for CSS being such a popular game... i really dont know anyone who plays it !
obviously all my friends in thew clan but theyre from all over the world... there seems to be no one in RL who plays... or maybe they got to thwe same stage as me and didnt really emerge into the outdoors ? lol

still feels a bit naff when im on TS and i can hear "the bomb has been defused" through someones mic. and i see my mates on xfire and their scores etc lol.


now i need a recreational game. none adictive... maybe its between hitman contracts, quake 4 and far cry at the moment :P

still getting my medusa 5.1 tomorrow though :P lol
 
this may sound a little sad... but do you guys thing to much adrenelin is bad for you !

steve 45... i know exactly what you mean. ive been in situations liek that too "ma hearst beatin, ma hands are shakin... BOOM HEADSHOT" adrenelin is really pumpin out... because of a game !! shurly that cant be good for you night after night.. maybe it will de-sensitie you to exciting moments lol... anyone ca4e for a biology lesson ?

lol btw... i got adicted to DOD:s the first night of plaing it... but soon wore off when i realised you NEED ** mates to play it with you. my score was 25 - 3 lol couldntbelieve it. glad that one went down the pan too though lol :P

these games really should have health warnings !
also... how many of your wallets have been dictated by the games you play... i was in denial that i was spending my money on hardware to make the thing look better but come to think of it... thats the only reason !

i think ive helped another fellow gamer break out too todday though... my mate is adicted to halo 2, and were always talking about our gamnes and today he was just gobsmacked at my decuission... and said " you know what... i think im gonna go cold turkey too "

this whole thing is just bizare... still finidning my slef sittin at my PC 24/7
exercise is a good idea. gym memberships ran out and ... yea the british weather was made for gaming :P.

is there anything i can get to MAKE sure i dont use my PC in certain hours... lol an ASBO might work :P
its a serious problem :(

and oxygen i know what you mean ... there seems yto be a point where you just 'know' the game, you know the weapons. and its just so engaging. that what i like about it... its simple. ruin - shoot. the really good players just seem to have raw skill
 
i think you might be right :(
id love to play it for say an hour a night... no more... but id still just sit here and wait for that hour.
i have no self control :( lol

got a girlfrined, i goto the pud odd times, goto college everyday, work on weekends, but the rest of the time wa staken up by css none stop.
