You have 300 dollars (USD), what games would you get. With this money i would say you could net 5-10 games. What would you pick. Assume you could pick games from any time period and system.

Not a game but better internet connection and LIVE.
Then I would have the equivalent of lot's of new games.

But to answer, FF X, VI, VII, VIII as I've played VII, VIII, X and heard good things about VI.
Crazy Taxi as it's Crazy Taxi.
L4D2 and AC2.
And Banjo Kazooie for the N64.

Not sure what that comes to.

AC 2, Brutal legend, Dragon Age and save some for Halo reach, depending on whether or not it turns out to be any good. Then maybe TF2 and L4D2.

I'd burn it. Then I could pretend to be the Joker for a few brief, happy moments.

Bioshock 2 Special Edition, Assassin's Creed II Special Edition, Dragon Age Origins, and Diablo II.

I think that my life would be complete if I had enough money for all of this...

100 cups of coffee :)

I'd go and buy a 360, then pick up a few exclusives.

This is pretty much how much money is going into my Christmas list.

Modern Warfare 2
Uncharted 2
Assassin's Creed 2
Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time.

Afrika, InFamous, Prototype, Saints Row 2, Kingdom Hearts, 358 Days/2, DDR Mario Mix, Super Mario Galaxy, and Rumble Roses XX.

I wouldn't go buy ANY games at this time of year. They might be in my Christmas stocking.

hahaha nice reference.

As for me...

Dragon Age
Borderlands
and pocket the rest.

Dragon Age, Borderlands, Assassin's Creed 2, and Left 4 Dead 2 (240$)
SNACKS! (60$)
Perfect month off.

Original copies of the monkey island series in the best condtion possible.
Golden Sun 2
Tales of Symphonia for Game Cube
Megaman Battle Network series

and if I had cash left ver I'd look into getting LoZ:Spirit Tracks or Mario and Luigi:Bowser's Inside Story.

God of War III Collectors edition or w/e the one with the box, God of War I and II for the PS3, Fallout 3 GOTY edition, and Mass Effect 2. I thikn that's about $300.

L4D2, Resistance 2/3, Little Big Planet, random stuff.

Dragon Age: Origins for PC
Assassins Creed 1 and 2 for PS3
Guitar Hero Metallica for PS3
Left 4 Dead 2 for 360
And finish it off by buying random old games for PSX to further my collection.

This.

A Super nintendo.,genesis, N64.

And the rest is for stocks

Modern Warfare 2 (360)
Grand Theft Auto 4 (360)
Saints Row 2 (360)
Borderlands (360)
Mass Effect 2 (360)

Or I'd get a PS3, and let it sit in my living room, until another one of these topics comes up so I can go get some games for it.

Torchlight and the entire catalog of good old games.

I'd get Psychonauts 60 times.

I'd prefer a new T.V.

EndOfDaWorld:
Modern Warfare 2 (360)
Grand Theft Auto 4 (360)
Saints Row 2 (360)
Borderlands (360)
Mass Effect 2 (360)

Or I'd get a PS3, and let it sit in my living room, until another one of these topics comes up so I can go get some games for it.

This.

Dragon Age, Sam & Max seasons 1-3, SBCG4AP (my duty as a Homestar fan), Batman, & Ghostbusters.

Unopened Final Fantasy 3 SNES Cart
Unopened Final Fantasy 4 SNES Cart
Unopened Chrono Trigger SNES Cart

Then I'd put what little is left over in a coffee can under my bathroom sink. Why? Always wanted to hide money in a coffee can in a silly location.

Lt. Vinciti:

EndOfDaWorld:
Modern Warfare 2 (360)
Grand Theft Auto 4 (360)
Saints Row 2 (360)
Borderlands (360)
Mass Effect 2 (360)

Or I'd get a PS3, and let it sit in my living room, until another one of these topics comes up so I can go get some games for it.

This.

also this.

i'd wait for starcraft 2

Could I also buy systems? If so, I'd probably get a DS with a game or two, Borderlands, and R&C Future: A Crack in Time.

I think that'd come out to about $300, but I'm not really sure.

A new PS2 $100 (FUCK YOU AND YOUR NON BACKWARDS SYSTEM SONY.)
Psychonauts
FFX I want to know what the hype is about
Put down money for No More Heroes 2
And the last 100 goes to Bioshock 2 special edition.

A PSP, Fate/Unlimited Codes, and Final Fantasy Dissidia.

Alternately...Gitaroo Man, Twilight Princess, No More Heroes, Disgaea 2, Pikmin 2, Metroid Prime 2 and 3.

Dragon Age Origins
NBA live 2010
Assasins Creed 1 + 2
Bioshock
The Orange Box
Rainbow Six: Vegas 1 + 2
Modern Warefare 1 + 2

I dunno, more coming out that I want

I can go into any time period? I would probably go 5-10 years into the future then buy all the games that I want now when they're dirt cheap. Maybe pick up a PSP and a few games while I'm at it.

Borderlands
Saboteur
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Assassin's Creed 2
Fallout 3 Collector's edition

L4D2, Fallout 3: GOTY Edition, DA:O Collectors, AC2, Borderlands and the rest on indie games I can get off Steam.

I'd get BioShock 2 Special Edition, MW2 Special Edition (Well, the Night Vision Goggles), and I'd give the rest away, since, I see, conforming to your guidelines, I couldn't spend the money on anything else but games. If I could get other things, my list would be...
- BioShock 2 Special Edition ($100)
- Christmas Lights ($10-50)
- Ushanka ($20)
- Lead Shot and Leather Gloves ($90)
- CCCP Naval Visor Cap ($30)
- Maroon Spetsnaz beret ($10)
- 100 CCCP badges ($40)
So, that comes out to be about, $320 dollars. Of course, I'd pay the extra $20. That'd be the greatest $300 spent in my entire life...

My first choice would be to buy a 360 with Dragon Age: Origins. However, with my current systems I would get Fire Emblem DS, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Band Hero (PS2), Kirby: The Crystal Shards (Virtual Console), MySims Kingdom (Shutup, it was fun), and The Conduit. I got mostly Wii games, because I generally don't like to spend my own money on them. If I could get them for free, it's a perfect deal.
