CONFIRMED MEMBERS

mike10 (two accounts)



(1) 5 People agree to split the purchase of a game together. One member collects all the fees, we'll call him the Gameshare Captain (GSC).

(2) The Gameshare captain collects all fees (COST OF GAME + TAXES + PAYPAL FEES divided by 5) Fees are sent by members to the GSC as a PERSONAL TRANSACTION - GIFT through Paypal.

(3) Once the GSC receives and confirms everyones funds. He creates a NEW USER on his PS3. He then signs up for a NEW PSN ID. He then purchases the game using his credit card OR pre-paid PSN card. (If CC is used, the GSC must remove/delete his personal info/billing info for security reasons before sharing the login and password).

(4) Once all fees are collected, and the game has been purchased under a new USER ID and PSN ID, and the GSC has removed his personal purchasing information. The GSC will distribute the gameshare PSN ID to all paid members of the gameshare.

(5) After receiving their gameshare PSN login, each of the remaining (four) gameshare members will create a NEW USER on their PS3 and under this new user setup their account under the PSN as an existing account using the information provided by their GSC. Each user locates and downloads the chosen game they paid for and the gameshare is complete.



I propose that this group will spend $10 a month and generate a pool of funds this way. This $10/mo. would be a regular fee so that our pool always increases. This allows us to purchase 3-5 new games every month. If all 5 members agree, we can do an additional fund pooling if there are games everyone wants but the pool does not have enough money.

Each month, each member posts 5 games they wish to purchase and we do a vote, with three categories:
Buy - I want it!
Indifferent - Doesn't really matter
No - Don't buy

A game will be bought if the majority of the votes are YES. A game will also be bought if 4 people vote YES and only 1 votes NO.
Here are the scenarios where a game will be bought:
1) 3x YES, 2x Indifferent
2) 4x YES, 1x Indifferent
3) 4x YES, 1x No

Sorry for the delay (again). I was asked to say what games I have. Apart from the games I got from this game share, I also have spelunker HD and catan. Do you guys check out review sites for your picks? Just noticing that a couple of these games have had some real low reviews. I was sad to see crazy taxi get sub par reviews. Apparently its the same old game with nothing added, and the soundtrack stripped. bummer.

Pac-Man Championship Edition DX YES
Dragon's Lair NO
sonic adventures NO
sonic 4 episode 1 indifferent
Crazy Taxi indifferent
Peggle YES
Auditorium HD YES
Shatter YES

mike10
Dec 1st, 2010, 08:56 PM
Pac-Man Championship Edition DX YES 5
Dragon's Lair YES 1 NO 4
sonic adventures YES 3 NO 2
sonic 4 episode 1 YES 4 1 INDIFFERENT
Crazy Taxi 4 YES 1 INDIFFERENT
Peggle YES 3 2 INDIFFERENT
Auditorium HD YES 3 2 INDIFFERENT
Shatter YES 5

So it is Pac-Man Championship Edition DX, sonic adventures, sonic 4 episode 1, Crazy Taxi, Peggle, Auditorium HD ,SHATTER

which will actually be $76.58 or 15.20 each if that is that okay with everybody if its not then we can try and figure out a way to get it down to 10 dollars

I usually check http://www.metacritic.com/games/playstation-3 for all of the reviews in one spot. I sometimes just want the game (like Dragon's Lair) for nostalgia :lol:

Hi guys, sorry for holding everything back again. I'm starting to wonder if I should bow out of this group. Although I'm up for getting new games, I don't really like anything thats available, and really don't play many of the new games we've been getting.

Sorry to hear. If gazoo does want out, maybe Mike can post in the topic looking for another member - shouldn't be too difficult I wouldn't imagine.

And I got rid of that 10 dollar rule since lots of times it doesn't really seem to work out
