Do you ever buy 360 games for the sake of it?

I love to play all kinds of games on the 360 and often buy 3-4 games a month, I normaly playand finish the game and never really go back on it again (unless its a big online muiltiplayer)

Im starting to feel like i buy to many games and need to become more selective rather than buying everything in site.... My problem is i always feel like im missing out if i dont get them lol

Dose any body else feel the same as me? leave your comments :)

Im not on loads of money really, gamings just my main hobbie lol though ive just bought a house got married and had a kid... so gaming might go down abit lol

I try to rent or barrow what I think I can beat in a week. I only buy a game at launch or at sixty dollars if I really want it. Every thing else I usally wait to hit the twenty to thirrty dollar range before picking it up.

I just rent or barrow a majority of the games I play, i pretty much refuse to buy a game unless it has good online multiplayer or it's a very large single player game with lots of stuff to do like skyrim, saints row, GTA, etc...

that's why I love Gamefly...I can have two to three games a month and I am only out 30 a month. I still buy about 3-5 must have titles a year. the rest I play on gamefly and return.

I pretty much only buy games that I know are going to be good. Everything else I rent first, and try it out. If it's good and I think I will get my money out of it I buy it.

I buy about 1 game every 1-2 months, so you do buy a hell of alot. Though I'm pretty poor, so maybe if I had more money I'd be buying more games too.

Yes I'm the same. We're called collectors for a reason lol. Best way to get games just for the sake of getting them is at yard sales. Most people don't know the prices of what games go for or what they're worth if they're old games (NES, SNES, Sega, Etc.), so you can often find them for really cheap.

Nope

I use Gamefly, rent everything, play it.

Maybe buy a few games per year that I really loved.

I only buy 2 or 3 games per year.

I buy many games every month! Mainly retro games, but yeah I buy Xbox 360 games because I love collecting. I have some parts of my game collection on my youtube, and still got to upload the other ones. Huge mountains of games, I got over 200 NES Games, over 93 Atari Games, over 60 SEGA Genesis,and about 6 PS1 Games uploaded so far, I got to get to uploading the others=]

i was exactly like that. What I did was buy Metal Gear Solid Hd and now I am have not bought a game in a lonnnnggg time!

Yes if I find a good deal on Xbox 360 games. And have the extra cash I will buy the game.(s) Besides I like variety. And always have built a library of games since I sometimes play 3-5 different games during a session.

I buy games for the heck of it all the time, A couple weeks ago I bought Fable 2 for $2 and a game called Velvet assassin.

Yeah, most recent ones were DMC4 and NIER, both have only been played about 3 hours. I honestly have no idea why I brought them, I didn't even want them.

Oh well, something to play when I'm bored I guess.

NO!

and it seems like you are the model of a customer the game companies try to make us into :S

While I see the coolness in this ...sometimes I have to just step back and say 'what's the point". It's not like you play many of those games very often.

I used to be the same way with DVDs. I had like over 300 ....and one day I said..."what in the hell am I doing...this is just hoarding". I hardly watched any of them. There were even times where if the same movie i owned on DVD was on TV I might stop and watch it but I would never just pop it in the DVD player. Now I restrict myself to ONLY buying the titles I really love and old classics.

I usually buy 2 or 3 games a month,sometimes a new release plus games that are more than 1 year old (on sale). I don't spend money on games just for the sake of it, seems pointless really.

If your problem is not wanting to miss anything *and* you don't want to wait... then you do have to buy all you can afford. I just buy want I'm intersted in and then let reviews and word-of-mouth help me "discover" what I missed. I also wait on good prices. I don't feel left out that I waited a couple of months for a 1/2 price deal for Skyrim. That way I feel like it's a bargain if I buy a little DLC for games I love (like Mass Effect 2).

I only buy games that I am pretty confident will be good, so I would consider myself very selective. I do not buy games on a whim, ever.
