This is a little of my game buying philosophy:

1.) I NEVER pay full price for a new game. That's total B.S., and a waste of money. I am a patient person by nature, and feel it is a complete joke to be paying $50-60 for a new game(s). I NEVER pay more than $29.95 for a new game.....etc.

2.) I do my research. I read the reviews from other gamers (maybe even yours, lol), and I NEVER purchase a game rated lower than 8.0 or 4 out of 5 stars...etc. Again, a waste of time and money picking up a game without true quality and attention to detail.

3.) When at ALL POSSIBLE, I'll play the demo first before purchasing. Common sense people!!

4. Last, but not least of which....I NEVER take the advise of the dealer!! They are in the business of sales, and it is not in your best interest to believe ANYTHING that they, the sales person, tells you about the quality of the game. Then again, if you have a good history with a particular dealer, then trust your own judgement. Again, as always.....BUYER BEWARE!
