Ok so I was just looking on steam and saw that The Ship : source is coming out on the 11th. I'm thinking about buying it (it looks really good), and its only $14.95. But the problem is I still have to pay my parents back 900 dollars for the other half the car payment they covered me for, and I'm looking to buy a new guitar which will run me another 600, a new amp as well, and some more effects pedals for the guitar. I have about 150 dollars at the moment and I'm working a steady job (minimum wage though).

But then I look back at it, and think its only 14.95... and then I look at the sin episodes:emergence which costed me 20 and I havent touched ever since I beat it. And I just bought pokemon emerald for the game boy which ran me another $35 + tax (which I don't really even play enough to warrent that much money going down on it). Same thing with darwinia, played it, and haven't touched it since. But then I say if I stop playing it for a while at least I'll have it when I'm bored. So I'm kind of going back and forth on this issue. Any help from you guys would be great!
 
Don't bother. It's only a game. There are plenty of better ways to spend your time, and I'm sure you have a lot of other decent games anyway (like Sin Episodes) :P
 
The Ship > SiN Episodes.

I'd get it. (I am, actually.)
 
Sounds like you're buying for the sake of buying. Pocket the money and work off the debt.

No, I didn't buy rag doll kung fu, or red orchestra, and many others. I wouldn't buy the games if I didn't think they were worth it personally. I think The Ship is like an online hitman. But I'm swaying towards the don't buy option. Cause I have to remember I have a large debt to pay off as well as I want something thats really expensive.

Screw it I bought it. Once I heard they're making a single player campaign free update in november and adding a botmatch ability soon after release. That sold it for me.
 
Meh, I personally hated the Ship as a mod for HL1.

It was boring and confusing.

Buuut... it might've changed over the past few years.
 
Sorry for the bump but I just wanted to say I should have listened to you guys. I was bored of it within 3 days. I just came back today and theres like 5 servers to choose from. If I could go back I would have never bought it knowing how crap it was. I should have saved the money for GMod 10 and EP2.

I bought half life source and even that was money better spent than on this piece of shit. Maybe I'll listen to you guys next time....
 
What is the Ship even about anyway?

I was thinking my next purchase was going to be SiN, but meh.
 
So I've heard, but meh, I just want to give it a try for some strange reason. Is it still 20 bucks?
