We’ll stick to The Sims 4’s build mode.

    12 gaming PCs networked together for $1,000,000???

    I think it’s bad reporting. It’s a $1M house that they spent $100k for a custom game room. No one is that stupid to pay that much for so little.

      Nope, 22… Article says that’s 75k.

      And each one is in custom “hideaway” cabinets that they said cost as much.

      They didn’t do anything cheap, and once you get to a certain level, everything becomes crazy expensive.

      This is the type of shit you do when you’re the problem and money is an afterthought.

      I don’t know why anyone would celebrate it.

        Ok, so I was right. The house is a $1m house, not that they spent $1m to make it a lan party house.

            Did you not read?

            " The house overall was a 7-digit number"

            Nowhere did they say they spent $1 million for the PCs, networking, and custom desks.

              Bud…

              You’re having a separate conversation than anyone else…

              This isn’t the first time this has happened, and I don’t think me putting effort in has ever helped you understand anything.

              I’m sorry, I can’t help you anymore.

                This isn’t the first time this has happened

                How about a quote from the article where it says they spent $1M just on the Lan party part of the house instead of insults?

                I said they didn’t spend $1M only on the Lan part. You replied, <sic>“$75k on PCs from the article plus custom desks”.

                Then you got hostile?

                Edit: I scrolled through your history and only saw a long list of your posts that I up voted. I’m not sure what you meant by “this isn’t the first time” as if we have a history of arguing.

                  Agreed. The lan aspect of the house did not cost $1 million. The house did. The house minus the lan party section still cost a million dollars.

                  12 tables, 12 computers, 12 monitors, 12 chairs, one switch… Does not cost a million dollars
