You probably need some help.
And what, pray tell, do you mean by that?
Co-op... help... more people...
I'm an idiot, sorry RB.
Just getting off work dealing with customers that want their cable/phone/internet and 3+ outlets installed in 10 minutes has made me defensive.
About the help, I'm game, the more the merrier.

Gotta figure out how I can talk myself out of the verbal assault that this will bring.
When you figure that out, please share. I want to have an excuse for my significant other BEFORE I buy the sim.

Suggested lines of argumentation:
  1. Shoes.
  2. It'll keep you occupied five times as long as other games, hence three times the price of other games is actually cheaper.
    You have to spend money to save money... right?
  3. Awwww... (add that look).
  4. It's better than sex!
    (Hm. On second thought, maybe you should avoid that).
    ...uh, it's better than sex with women other than you hon. :p
  5. Look! Flowers!
  6. How am I as a politically interested citizen supposed to make an educated decision on election day if I am ignorant of this country's capabilities of power projection? In the big picture, $125.- are insignificant, especially next to the MoD's annual budget.
  7. It came with a puppy dog, and since I know that you're allergic to them, I gave it to a poor kid before coming home. By the way, is dinner ready yet?
  8. Surprise! It's for you!
    ...and I thought you always said that you absolutely liked tanks and computer games!

I guess I suck as a salesman. \:D

9. Don't tell her she'll never know.

Worked for me. She assumed it cost me the same as any other PC sim. I decided discretion was the better part of valour!

I considered trying number 2 on that list, but since my wife is pretty good at martial arts the chances are I'd have had to wait five times longer than normal to play SBPro than any other sim as well due to time spent in hospital!

Bottom line: Silence is your friend ;\)
