I don't mind what I get in a trade as long as it's not hacked so badly that it damages a game lol. For eggs it's pretty much whatev ppl will give. When I trade shinys or legends and the ocassional event I ask for something of similar value. I gave out 10 Riolus on V-Day got Eevee, Shroomish, Tototodile, Electrike, Nospass, Smoochum, Misdreavus, Vulpix, Bagon & Ralts in return. About half of them knew a TM or Egg move.
I don't get to play online games often now b/c my comp doesn't have the memory to run a game like that, it's a small notebook mostly to go online and do schoolwork on the USB drive. Sometimes I can borrow a PSP from a gamer friend and play on a day off. The first time they ever saw me they were shocked that I can rock out a FPS b/c mostly I play "girly games" (Pokemon, Zelda, Rayman, Sonic) w/ candy color graphics and no violence/blood. But I'm good at shooters and protect my squad well, I don't just blast non-stop so v. seldom end up w/ friendly fire kills.
I do worry that BF III will never get out of development and that's such a shame when good games don't release. Like the first Mario RPG (Seven Stars) will never see a port as their arguments to how has the rights to the Geno chara and the original Square team broke up and scattered. Or all the Rare games we were promised when they were a hot property, Killer Instinct II I wanted forever and it won't come. *sigh* It's nice that I got friends to talk w/ on all topics. Some for games, some talk movies, or fashion, or music so living in an apt away from fam isn't lonely.
