Who buys $60 games? (Poll)

So I always have a hard time spending $60 on a ps3 game and i was wondering how many of you actually buy games for the full price? The only games i have shelled out 3 jacksons for the ps3 are nfs carbon (because I bought the game like 1 or 2 weeks after launch and you couldnt find a game for less) and also spiderman 3 (which came with spiderman 2 for the ps2 for free which i havn't even opened and that was like 2 years ago). Otherwise I wait for like sales usually $30 or less, but im a patient person.

I buy every game i get off ebay, amazon, or used. Even brand new games on ebay and amazon can be had for $50 or less.

And the great thing about buying used games........blu-rays are much harder to scratch up than your normal dvd or cd.........they typically clean up really well.

I seldom buy $60+ games unless I know I'll find them enjoyable. For instance I bought LBP and GTA IV for that price. I also look at the game ratings so that I don't buy a crappy game like *cough* Haze. But yeah I go for cheap games. I mean I bought Assassins Creed for $25 unfortunately I still think I got ripped off as I thought it was a repetitive game... I think a lot of people agree on that.

i only play games that i know i will get full enjoyment out of it, so i will always pay the $60 for it... also i do not buy a game every other day like some doAncientNecro

I've paid full price for one game once, that was Jonah Lomu Rugby on the PS1, but I have got 1000's of hours of enjoyment out of it.

I refuse to pay $100 - $120 for games, nearly all aren't worth it, especially these days where they don't even finish the games properly.

I would probably buy more games as risks if they were if they were about $50 - $60, but these days I go for more quality over quantity in game.

It is quite difficult cause many titles really aren't living up to their potentials.

Back in the PS2 days there were many games that never started at $50 they were $40. Games like Ratchet and Clank, Jak, Burnout. With the Ps3 though its like every game is $60 bucks. It sucks but at least Disgaea 3 was $50. Warhawk was $40 too. But there are games recently I knew I would enjoy purely from videos. Prince of Persia, Mirror's Edge, and LittleBigPlanet - I bought those for $60 but they all came with preorder bonuses (Which weren't that good except for the bag I got from pre-ordering Mirror's Edge). I payed $60 for Valkyria Chronicles as well but that was after I read a whole bunch of reviews.

Soon White Knight Chronicles will come out of which I'll gladly pay $60 for. Theres also Uncharted 2. Anything else I'll look for reviews and if the reviews say its an average game then I might wait for a sale. A game I'm waiting to find cheap right now is Ratchet and Clank: ToD.

I only have 6 games and spent 60 on 3. Uncharted, MGS4, Ratchet and Clank. All worth it in my opinion..

It depends. Sincerely, I've only bought 3 PS3 games (not even the PS3 saves itself of having much too few titles that enchant me, my brother buys most PS3 games at home). I bought LittleBIGPlanet with full pricetag, and I bought OBLIVION "Game of the Year Edition" at $30. The other entry would be Civilization Revolution ($60), but I traded it in because it dissapointed me (it lost ALL of the stuff I like form CIv IV!!!). If I were to determine how would my purchase behavior would be for PS3 games, I would say I'd buy half the games with full price tag, since I usually get hooked to many of the games kinda late (with the price drop involved).

I f I were to recommend you how to buy, rent/borrow first before playing, UNLESS you're totally sure you're gonna love the games you buy. Ifyou're not so hyped, you rather wait for the price drops.

I buy used. I didn't used to, but considering how durable BR discs supposedly are...
