Will you spend money when you play the online games?

Some large online games can be free. But if you want to have a better achievement, you have to spend real money to buy the virtual equipments. Although some people are crazy about it and don't mind spending a lot of money to buy it. But I don't think I will spend a penny for it anyway

It will really depend on what the game is. And how addicted I am to it.
I have yet reach that stage where I am willing to pay for something in order to advance in a game.
Once I get to the point where I have to pay, I bid the game bye-bye and move on to another.
Games are after all, to pass time. So, the cheaper they are, the better!

Hi youless! I don't I will spend anything for any online games accessory or equipment. I will play for free but if there will be money involve, I will not play anymore. I don't think it is practical for me at the moment to indulge myself on things like that.
Take care and have a great day!

I like playing online games but I don't like to spend anything on those things besides "the best things in the world are free"

hello youless
i have a yearly membership to the online games at Club Pogo's website. i enjoy hanging out in a game room sometimes online with either whoever or one of my friend's or family members even and relax and enjoying playing a game. Club Pogo's website is fun and addictive. they offer a weekly challenge's and also to Club Pogo member's a times two jackpot amount. right now Club Pogo has a $5.00 off special for Valentine's Day. i plan on re-newing my Club Pogo account next weekend and getting in on the $5.00 off coupon for the year. then the yearly membership fee for this year will be $32.99 for the whole year which figures out to a dime a day and there are lots of days on Club Pogo's website that i do indeed get my dime's worth for the day, lol.
take care and have a beautiful afternoon.

I make it a hard and fast rule that I do not spend money on virtual anything. If you cannot hold it and play with it, you don't buy it. There are some exceptions, but for the most part, I think that there are plenty of games to play online for free, and If I had to pay for them, I would not play. I would rather make money on line than spend it! Have a great day!

I play an online football managmenet game. If you subscribe to it you are given little extras that help you in the game. I opted to subscribe since I am hooked onto this game.

No, i won't use real money to buy stuff in the online game. I don't mind the subsription if it's a good game and if it's not too expensive, but i stop at that and won't go further with my money. I've also seen people spending a lot of money on the game. I knew someone who spent over a hundred dollars to buy game money and he used his dad's credit card at that. Like you i won't spend a penny because it's not worthwhile. Eventually one might quit the game anyway. So, fun with no money involved.

yeah, i do not think it's wise to spend money on virtual game stuff. it's just a total waste of money. plus, one doesn't usually play a game for life so when you stop, u will realise that u have spent alot of money on something that's immaterial and unuseful in real life. i would, however, spend money on subscriptions if the game requires it and provided it's a really gd game; something that i could play long-term. other than that, i would not spend money on anything else game related.

There was a game I used to like a lot and membership was 5$ per month. The game itself was free to download, you only had to pay membership. I didn't think 5$ per month was a lot so I didn't mind. Now I don't have the time anymore, but I wouldn't pay more than 5-10 for a game.

I never do it since I began to contact the Internet, and I think it is so crazy for me to spend money on the virtual, but only once I wanna make my QQzone colorful, you know, QQzone need Q money, and I want to buy from their server. What a joke is that I couldnt find the server's number, finally, I had to give up.
Moreover I never play the net games needing fee,I play starcraft only.

I have always felt that paid games have better graphics and are interesting for a long time. I usually spend 10$ to 20$ on a game card from http://www.ultimategamecard.com/. It gives access to really thrilling and adventurous games.

I recently got sucked into spending money to play on line games. I keep hoping that I am going to win, so far it's not happening. The site that I play through gives me a portion of the money I have spent back into my account though.
