Hello, and welcome to my first (and perhaps only) blog/tutorial. Today, I'm going to give you some tips and tricks on how to get those games rollin' in. Enjoy!

1. Well, for a start, you need to be an overall well-behaved child. If your parents respect you and trust you, they're more likely to buy you video games. Of course, if you have a job where you earn a reasonable amount of money, then you can disregard this tip. Now I'm not saying "Don't behave", I'm saying, if you have a career with a good income, this tip doesn't necessarily apply to you so much.

2. Secondly, in the likely event you need an expensive game, you need to act different to your normal behaviour. If you are a lucky child like myself living in a middle class modern society home with lots of unnecessary technology and perform little to none chores, this isn't good enough. A few good examples for gamers to do which they wouldn't normally do, is to perhaps put your washing in the hamper. Take a shower. Do the dishes. Anything to please your parent so that when the begging begins you have some back-up to why you deserve to buy a game.

3. Jeezus, these tips are getting long. Alright, back to work. My third tip, is that you must beg. Now, if you're again in a similar situation to me where your parents are understanding and kind, begging is one of the best options. Although on most occasions, you can't just bring a game up and beg. In order to beg, you must really want this game. Before the game is released, or before you ask to buy said game, you must let your parents know you want this game. I personally have brought random games up before saying I really like them and my parents deny me saying that "this is the first time they have heard me speak of it". Seriously, be prepared.

4. In order to receive a good supply of games in a reasonable amount of time, you must even out your asking/buying schedule. Now I'm not saying asking for a new game every week doesn't work in some cases, although it can be difficult. Limit how often you buy games. If you want set a limit for how many you can buy per month or per two months. Just keep it even, and don't ask for a new game every 3 days. Trust me, it doesn't work.

5. Alright, now I'm about to wrap this tutorial up, although I have one final tip for you - perhaps the most important. You absolutely must, must must must be affectionate. With no affection, your parents won't love you enough to grant you the pleasure of new games. Show them you love them. Before asking, while asking, and if you succeed - after buying, you must let them know how much you love them, and how lucky you are to live in this privileged society with loving parents who are willing to use their money to let you be happy. Your parents are even more important then games - I know, hard to believe - and you love them more than you love your Xbox, if you can.

Alright! There we have it. Did you find this helpful? Leave some "love" for me. Took a while to type and think of. So, I hope you enjoyed. See you later PMC!
