The game I would like is Street Fighter V it is a purchase-able preorder for $59.99. It is ranked #1 on my wishlist so I want this game so much.
I would really love to play this game but my budget is too tight to buy it at $60 atm so it feels bad. Long story short I just collected all the parts for my first PC (well case shipping the 10th). I still need to buy a monitor and decided to a cheap korean panel from eBay.
Anyways as such any games I win from giveaway / free game from buying the pc parts / or bought on my own during sales... will need to last me for quite a long time after this so yes they will definitely get a lot of play. I would like Street Fighter V because it is the game of ultimate replay value. I used to love playing arcade fighters at Golf Land, and met some of the coolest and nicest people I know that way. Once I heard that a new Street Fighter is coming to Steam, I got the Itch to play again, and surely I will meet a lot of great new friends. This is also a game that will be played for years no doubt.
Ok so why did I choose to make a PC? Well if you look at my steam profile you'll notice I have a 2 yr account but not much game played time. I had a really old laptop and well the games I tried were unplayable >.> As such I got by with consoles. It never occurred to me that I can make my own pc and save money and get a stronger system compared to buying another laptop--I was actually terrified of trying. I gained more confidence after perusing /r/buildapc for about a month. Then I bit the bullet, sold my PS4, and whatever other lil things I could find to help fund my pc. I lurked /r/buildapcsales in order to find the best deals for about 2 months. Needless to say I'm thrilled to finally have a capable pc soon, and best of all I made it on my own, which I thought was impossible before.
So that wasn't the most gut wrenching or depressing story in comparison to others, but just my situation no matter how boring it may be. I just want to say I appreciate all these giveaways that help people in their time of need; if you read all my previous posting history you will see that I've only started to enter game giveaways in late Nov which is when my time of need started. Once I get situated I plan to pay it forward of giveaway of my own. Thanks for the chance.
