the small score's thread

[Grim Fandango]

I decided to give the Crackdown demo a shot with an open mind today. After the full 30 minutes I realised it wasn't as dull as I had first thought. I looked around online to see who had it cheapest, focussing on where I could trade some stuff in.

It ended up being GAME where I got a preowned copy for £2 after trading in some Xbox games. I parked just outside the town centre in a side road where it's free. But GAME had closed down a hundred yards from there. No worries, I went another hundred yards down the road to the next GAME. And if they were shut I could have gone another hundred yards to the next GAME. And if they were shut I could have gone 50 yards back to Gamestation who are owned by GAME so have pretty much the same prices.

Sounds like a couple of towns here where there are Gamestops right across the street from each other

How has no one noticed the bad punctuation in the title before? "The small scores thread" o_O

"Score's" is possessive, "Scores" is plural.

[Tynstar]

Some nice scores NES_Rules. You got some good 2600 and NES stuff.

[Samada]
