      Gamestop is right across the steeet from me so i go in there w/e I have some extra cash and buy used games that I havent heard of before and almost always like them. If I dont like them I force myself to play them and after playing it for a little more I end up likeing it.

      I think unless you have Gamefly or w/e its a waste of money. Games are too much to rent with walk in rental stores. BLockbuster its like $5 for 2 days and family video its $7 for 5.

        I get some free rentals from Blockbuster that I use, other than that I just buy games that I know are going to be good.

          Over half the times I rent a game, I'll play it for a day and then never touch it again so I haven't done it much lately. I rented NBA Live a couple weeks ago and played it to death but that was probably my first rental in years. I typically buy a game and when I get bored of it or move on to something else I trade it in.

            Buy. My local Blockbusters don't even have 360 games.

              I enjoy the fact more and more games are releasing demos on XBL and PSN. They really help in making a choice on to buy or not.

                The only games I buy for sure are NCAA and Madden. So I rent more games then I buy.

                    Buy. I had GameFly for a little while and actually am considering joining up again to because there are quite a few games that I want to play but I'm not sure if I'll end up buying them all.

                    But I never go to Blockbuster or somewhere like that and rent.

                        Lately I rent more games now thanks to bones. Bones got me hooked on Gamefly and now I don't buy games I'll easily beat in a few days.

                            Usually Rent first and then buy if the games deep enough. Sometimes this technique bites me in the ass a la Mass Effect. Rented it for a week, loved it, bought it, and then beat it a day later.

                            But its saved me a lot of money with games I assumed would be worth buying but werent. (Fable 2)

                              How long does it take new releases to get to you with GameFly?
