    I've played games like that and after you lose a few times there's definitely a compelling force that urges you to "fight back until you win". When I was about 16 I spent about 15 bucks on the same type of game at six flags in atl attempting to win a huge stuffed Tazmanian Devil. I felt like MJ in Atlantic City $300K down on craps but I forced myself to walk away. That competitive edge is NO JOKE, but you have to make yourself walk away. Another time was last year, there was a machine in the mall that has an ipad hanging from a string, the object is to align a very small set of "scissors" accurately enough to cut the rope (which I think is made of some type of matte metal). Each try was a dollar. The first two tries I didn't know what I was doing, I finally figured it out and burned through 3 more dollars. Never again.

    Gribbohm, who managed to win a stuffed banana with dreadlocks before dropping $2,600, says he's considering a lawsuit.

    To the idiots laughing at dude with a life savings of $2600 you do realize this is the norm in America...

    Laugh at the dude for being an idiot. Laugh at him for not realizing he could have over 25 kinects for that price.

    With this economy, most Americans don't have anything in a savings account. Stop living on your damn pedestal.

    If his life savings are really 2,600, then I don't know what to say. I wouldn't be surprised if he made that **** up to try and get it back.
