Hey sangbyung are you hoping to include the $2000 sony vaio in the total cost also, I think that might be stretching the credibility of your claims slightly. :sly:

lol. i knew i am in trouble when she got me those gifts. I had to think of something better to get her.
 
The real question should be, "how much money have I lost?" LOL.

Sorry Boss, (cough cough) I can't make it to work today. We got a new update, err, I mean, I might have the flu.:sly:

I Already had the 40" Sony LCD, surround sound and the PS3. Just the cost of a new wheel and 2 copies of the game is all in for.

Poor house or Millionaire, Who cares! If your having fun on your 12" screen and the guy you are racing is having fun on his 100" projector screen, thats all that should matter. Fun.

Happy Racing

Yes that's equally valid how much money have I lost, but its the old saying is the glass half full or half empty. Personally if I had spent this money on something outside my control such as bills etc then I would have classed it as lost. In this case I would gladly class it having been spent, since I get so much pleasure playing it.

You're absolutely correct the threads purpose was not about bragging how much money was lavished on the game for the sake of it, as you say if a guy is just as happy playing the game on a 12" as opposed to a bigger screen, they say size is important (oo-er missus) but its more how you use it that counts!

A lot of guys state they own two copies of the game any reason for this?

£25 GT5:P
£50 DFP (Brought this a bout a year or two ago though)
£35 SOCOM (for the Official Sony Headset, and a free game :sly:)

Around about £1000

Still to get:

Logitech G25 ~£150 (ouch!)

Yes that's exactly what I was hedging on :grumpy:, hoping there might a quick-ish release of the full game. Still its money spent that shouldn't need spending when the full release is out (hopefully by the end of the year) 👍.
