12 Things All Gamers On A Budget Can Relate To

4. Relying On Pre-Gen Consoles

One sure fire way to guarantee cheap gaming satisfaction is to look to the recent past; we've all done it so don't pull that face.

Akin to when the Xbox 360's Red Ring of Death killed your, at the time, modern gaming vibe: you had no choice but to plug in old reliable and boot your original Xbox. This is a regular situation for the less affluent gamer as it is broken, doesn't require fixing and the games are dirt cheap.

With a bit of luck; you can pick up some Xbox or PS2 titles in pawnbrokers for around 50p each and game to heart's content for next to nothing - welcome to the smart party.
