I was reading an article on The Escapist about saving money on games in the economic downturn. Basically, the writer said he tried to save money by not forking out so much on the latest releases and would instead only get games from clearance and sale racks. He ended up spending more than twice the amount he normally would have before when he was just buying new games.

Are any of you guilty of this? Link to the article is here.

I couldn't agree more. I only buy the titles I REALLY want, such as Batman new. 99% of the time I get two week old releases on Ebay for about $35.00. I have a wealth of games that ensures I don't need that many titles the day they are released. Not to mention I am 30 years old and need money for more things besides video games. However, anytime someone starts a thread like this it quickly gets invaded by 19 year old liars who are going to say "I have a job and I make so much money that buying $60 games 6 times a month means NOTHING to me". What this means in reality is "I live at home and my parents pay all my bills for me" lol. The truth is if you are a responsible, independent person as far as finances it's very hard to justify buying very many new games. Pretty much all of my friends and myself have decent jobs, but I would say we all have dropped down to about 3-5 new games a year in recent times.

Hate to reply to myself, but I should mention that I don't find anything wrong with 19 year olds living at home buying new games every week. I bought about 10 people's share of games/other meaningless stuff back then too. That's what being young and not have responsibilty is all about. Worry about house, car, electric, etc. when the time comes.

I NEVER pay 60 bucks for a video game. Just not worth it to me. 30 dollars is my limit. So I buy used and I buy older platium hits titles.

I rarely still buy games for the full $60. I'll buy a few here and there for the used prices, but since I'm only working on weekends and aren't getting nearly as much money as I used to, I have to put my money towards more important things.

Yeah I really never pay the full $60 on a game either. Last game I paid $60 for, was The Godfather 2 and what a let down. It should have been a $40 game when it came out in my book. So I traded in that and Far-Cry 2 for Batman. Both games plus 25% for the two trade in towards the reserve of Batman were $40. So I only paid $23 for Batman. I buy used and older new games off Amazon/Ebay for a cheaper price. I understand they need to make their money back on the games but a lot of games aren't worth $60 new. Exclusives and games they know that are going to be great ( like halo, MW 2, Forza 3, etc ) should be $60, others should be around $40-$50. It's to much to pay $60 each time a game comes out.

How do you spend more on used games than you do on brand new? This sounds like marketing propaganda to keep the simpletons in check with buying newly released products.

Ouch man. $23 + two games you payed $60 each for? That makes Batman cost $143. I have bought mistake games before too, but the way I see it, two wrongs don't make a right. Trading stuff in is a horrible deal. They have stuff called "power trade", and different deals, but it's all to make it seem like you are getting a fair deal, but you aren't. At the very least I would have tried selling those two games on Ebay, together for $60.00, which seems very reasonable, and used that money to buy Batman.

The money that went towards The Godfather 2 was Christmas money, and Far-Cry 2 was a gift. So in my book I made out pretty good. I really do need an Ebay account to sell my games. I'm tired of selling them on CL for cheaper then people on Ebay sell them for.

I'm not trying to insult you, I just feel bad that you only have 1 game you like now instead of 3 for your cash, no matter where it came from. Here are some examples of what I do, maybe it can help someone out. But really it's just using good financial sense. I have a collection of a few hundred games, and I got to the point where I never trade anything in, though at rare times I will still Ebay some away if I really don't like them. I get to play everything I want to, and it costs MUCH less than trading anything in at Gamestop. Mass Effect - I know I wanted this game. I read previews of it for a few months, loved KoTOR, and was 99.9% it had lasting value to me and I would like it. I was very happy I bought it and still love it, so there is no chance I will trade this in. Fable 2 - I was curious on how good this game would be so I read a couple reviews the day it came out. Now I don't trust reviews for my buying decisions because they are mostly wrong in my opinion, however they can be useful to finding out key info on a game you are interested in. I read some forums and decided I would hold off on this game. About 2 months after release I found it for $20.00 at a local store and bought it. I think Fable 2 is a pretty good game. For the price I paid I think it is awesome. I will not trade this game in or sell it because it probably goes for about $15.00 used. Big deal. Too Human - Exact same as Fable 2 except for the fact that I think it sucks. Sure I could sell it for $10-15 bucks but big deal, no real loss. I only paid $20 for it, which don't get me wrong, is $20 gone, but had I went out and payed $60 for it I would have felt totally screwed. The moral of this story is: A. Don't pay full retail price for games that you are not very sure you are going to like. B. Read forums and reviews if you are really in doubt C. Remember, you can always pass up a game you are not sure about and buy another game you are not sure about that has been out for a couple months for about 1/3 the price. That is the best way to minimize your loss and still get something you can play. You could have bought 3 games easy for the price of Godfather II and odds are you would have really liked 1 of them if not all 3.

I think at this point last year I had purchased more games than this year, mainly because I'm still playing those games.

I get what your saying but to me once I beat a game I sell it no matter how much I liked it. I tried to sell the godfather part 2 ( which I hated ) on CL for $50 and everyone was offering me $30 for it. A few days went by and I said screw it, I knew GS was having add an extra 25% for 2+ games on a trade-in towards Batman. I knew I was interested in buying it, so I decided to trade them in, which I never do. I hate going to GS for anything, they are the biggest crooks. At the end of the day I was thinking I should have waited to see if I would have sold the Godfather 2 for my asking price but i have no patience. I guess that game was such a let down it didn't matter. I already thought I got screwed when I bought it, so whats getting screwed again matter. :) But thank you for your opinion next time I should care a little more and wait and make better decisions.

See this is my reasoning too. I really, really want to get every new game I want, but there is no way I can get around to playing them all as much as they are worth and as much as I paid for. I recently have purchased many new games, and Tiger Woods 10, Red Faction, Madden 10, and Resistence 1 are all suffering because I play too many other games. I rarely get around to them if at all. I still play CoD4 even though it is nearing 2 years old now.

TL;DR, Buying lots of games is a waste of money.

No I basically buy whatever I want whenever I want and it has been like that since I got my Xbox 360. Although 2009 has been pretty boring so far so I have just been saving up money for the games coming out in the next few months.

I buy a few new releases a year. Last year I bought Fallout 3, Mass Effect and GTA at launch. This year I have not bought any at launch. Mainly, I rent the game at launch to be able to play with the rush and see if I like it, then I buy it a few months down the road if I want to keep a copy of it. Gotta love those unlimited rental plans. 20 a month for all the new releases really helps when your short on cash.

I mix and match. The other day I bought Batman new, only because I read reviews, and I like Batman. However I also get used, like Farcry 2, really not worth $60, but a fun time filler. I tend to buy the 1st game, for example Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 is coming out soon, so I bought number 1. Dirt 2, I just picked up Dirt1 for $15. Same games, just updated graphics. I looked at the videos for Marvel Alliance 2, and compared to #1, there was barely any difference.

I still buy new releases of the music games such as Rock Band etc. I can see problems where in GH5 you can use the code from World Tour and Greatest Hits to import those songs. Thus the used copies of those games are pretty useless. That's what I'll be doing, buying GH5, taking the codes from the previous games, using them, then trading them in.

The only games I buy new are the ones I know I'm going to play a lot. I think the last game I bought new was Red Faction Guerrilla and I probably won't buy any games until CoD MW2.

Well what more can you do? If you really believe you are going to like a game you should not feel guilty about buying. Nor should you feel stupid for buying if it doesn't turn out that way. Everyone makes mistakes. I believe the gaming industry is making far too much money off of impulse buys and what I consider false advertising.

LMAO, perfect example. See my thread titled Sick and Tired of Previews. It is... strange how they hold reviews on games such as Force Unleashed until after the release date isn't it?

i have bought and sold 3 ps3s, a 40, 60, and 80 gig, 2 wiis, and sold my first 360 but bought another one. i'm very OCD and have a tendency to buy a game, play it, dislike it, trade it in, then have seller's remorse for getting rid of it, so ill buy it again. (fallout 3, devil may cry 4, mass effect for example...)

so i'm very guilty.

also to the guy who said 19 y/o's are lying who say they buy 5 new games a month.... but when you lower your moral standards you can make a lot of money so dropping 200 at the video game store is no biggie =]

do you guys not realize the cost to make these games? how do you expect any company to produce anything of quality (which costs millions to make) then charge so little to the point where its not worth it to them.

what was the size of ps1 games? like 128 bit? and they charged 40$ for a NEW ps1 game.

we get 5 gigs(correct me if i'm wrong) for 60.

what you guys should be mad about is how they try to nickel and dime you (which is where they make their money, trust me i'm in business school for finance)

paying for standards features??? (cough re5 multiplayer cough) at what point do they stop making the main part of the game to focus on dlc that seems to come out RIGHT after some new releases?

Yes. I get Platinum Hits games like a fiend. I got a 360 late in the game, a Jasper Arcade this past April, so all these great games that I haven't played are dirt cheap. Some recent ones I purchased are Dead Rising,The Orange Box,Gears of War, and Mass Effect.

Even before this recession I always researched and chose the games I purchased wisely and where to get it at. Recently I bought some Indie Games because they were really cheap and people in this house had fun with them.

"also to the guy who said 19 y/o's are lying who say they buy 5 new games a month.... but when you lower your moral standards you can make a lot of money so dropping 200 at the video game store is no biggie =]" "trust me i'm in business school for finance)" ??? I think you missed the entire point. At least I said that I don't mind paying $60 for a game if it is quality. Not every game needs to be $60. Do you think GI uses all of disc space? No, they printed a crap ps2 port over to a 360/ps3 disc that they figured they could at least trick a few people into buying and then turning around and selling the next day.

I tend to always end up with what I want when it comes to games (only thing that really does honestly), but I wouldn't say that I purchase but around 4 games or less a year depending on that years releases. An example is this year, I'm probably going to purchase Beatles Rock Band, Assassin's Creed II, and Call of Duty: MW2 and that'll be it. So I would say 'not guilty' to your original comment.

I'm a competitive FPS'r so get it new or it stays on the shelves. My days of scowering EB/GS for bargins stopped after the trade in prices dropped. I get 3 or 4 games a year between 2 systems. So far RE5 which was a waste of money, next will be Uncharted2 and MW2... Next year Red Dead Redemtion, Lost Planet2 and God of War3...

I never buy games new, on ebay I can get them half price. And on top of that, I don't really buy games that often. So no, I'm not guilty of this
