Where do you buy Video Games?

I hope this isn't one of those questions that gets asked every other day, but I'm wondering: Where do most people buy Video Games?

Also, why? Price? Frequent deals? Wide selection? Loyalty?

amazon and newegg 95% of the time

gamestop when they have cheaper deals than amazon.

Gamestop.

Usually EB games.

If you buy from Gamestop/EB Games you are part of the problem.

zavvi (uk) or amazon usually. i buy preowned games from local shops though. i dunno where to buy black ops from though, its cheaper on amazon but i dunno what they are like for delivering pre orders

I buy New Games at Best Buy and use my Rewards Card

and

I buy Used/Bargain games at Gamestop, especially when they run their buy 2 used, get one free deal.

I pre order my shnizz from gamestop. I am done with used old games going for new games that are just released from now on.

I make all of my pre-orders from Gamestop and then make a bunch of impulse buys while I'm talking to the cashiers. That place can be as bad as Steam sometimes.

EB Games.Its easy shopping,they have the largest selection of everything a gamer wants,games,accessories,old and new.That sounds like im advertising for them but I thought I'd give a reason.Being able to trade in games have been usefull at times too.

amazon and newegg 95% of the time

Amen brother

I don't like stealing from devs so I make sure the money goes to them

I do all my shopping on Amazon really, it's just so much easier and I get so much money back for new releases

Gamestop 98% of the time. 2% online when they have really good deals.

EB games, EBay, Gamestop, Amazon who ever has a good copy cheap

GameStop

Online a lot. Just bought a bunch of rare GBA games (mario vs dk, mario and luigi, etc). When I buy them in person, I usually shop wherever is the cheapest, though Ive stopped shopping at Gamestop almost completely. They finally tried selling me an open game as a new copy which was just, after hearing stories, a bad sign and really bad business practice. Not sure why they would do that - makes no storage sense. The only time I will shop there is for used games on DS.

Amazon.

I buy them from Futureshop (=

mainly eb games and ebay

Usually online through Game, Eb Games and eBay for older titles...

Eb games, they pretty much recognize me on sight there. :lol:

Gamestop or Walmart (convenient since both are right next to each other and are within 5 min driving distance :)

I usually buy from GS/EB. Never had a problem. [QUOTE="Ellimem"]

No as in "YOU are the problem"

Buying from there does nothing to help keep the industry alive meaning that if you buy your games from those places you are killing the industry

I have a Play N Trade behind my house and a Gamestop right down the street, but I normally go to Play N Trade and buy off Amazon.

Mainly, Best Buy or Gamestop. Sometimes Wal-Mart or Target if there's someone actually working the electronics department. Trying to get someone to go to the electronics department in those stores is like pulling teeth.

i get most of my games at walmart because the closest gamestop is like 45 min away.

i'vebeen preordering from amazon alot lately cuz the offers they give like 20$ towards your next video game purchase. way better deal than eb games. plus i get free release date shipping, so that makes up for it being online.
