Where do you get your games?

azrael · 02-05-2011, 01:41 PM

I normally get my games from

www.tradegamesnow.com
www.ebay.com
near by store

I got some awesome deals recently from TGN (tradegamesnow) so it had me thinking where everyone got their games from.

Ebay helps me out but only after no one else is looking for the game, lol

Near by stores I miss those mom and pop game stores

major reason I hate gamestop.

Anyone else use trade sites for getting games. If so what site and user name maybe we have something the other one wants.

Amazon, ebay and Gamestop. I go to Gamestop mostly when I want a game right damn now.

*XERO* · 02-05-2011, 02:11 PM

Gamestop for me, too. Considering it's right up the street. lol

I never tried Amazon before. I always figured you needed a credit/debit card for it, which I don't have at the moment.

*Ninjinister* · 02-05-2011, 02:21 PM

Dead bodies.

EDIT: Amazon and eBay too.

Nope, you can use electronic check to have it debited from your account.

On topic, I pretty much use GameStop exclusively. I have used eBay and Amazon, Best Buy, FYE, etc. in the past but like other stated GS is just convenient. Plus I'm friends with the manager so the environment is nice in his store. I have been in some where the employees flat-out sucked and acted like you were intruding in their space.

I'm a cheap ass gamer for the most part, trying to find a lower price here or there. Last year I loaded up and games from Movie Gallery and Hollywood when the company liquidated.

Abnormal Freak · 02-05-2011, 03:23 PM

If we're talking new and in print games, I go for Amazon, usually. I tend to load items in my cart and click "Save for later," so every time I log in and check my cart, it will tell me whether any of the items have gone up or down in price; so I've snagged a lot of games this way when Amazon drops the prices really low, way lower than GameStop and all the other online retailers.

Hell yeah the best kind of gamestores, a store here in Columbus,OH called "Play it Trade" and I am not talking about "Play n Trade" two completely different franchises, I actaully know the owner quite well, has given me some sweet deals over the years. It started as one store and now is trying to open up a sixth and its only been about 4 years.
P.S. Does anyone have a library that loans out games for free, bc a public library down in southeren Ohio does. And I am not talking about child Games. I.E. "Wolverine" 360 "Spider-man-Shattered Demension" 360 and more!

Amazon, Best Buy, Gamestop, and rarely Toys R Us. Depending on the deals they have.

*Samhain* · 02-05-2011, 10:11 PM

Really,it depends on what deals everyone is having. But im a regular at Target so I usually go there.

Patraw · 02-15-2011, 10:08 AM

I used to buy a lot of my games from eBay, Walmart, and Target, but now, I get almost everything from Gamestop.

Sword Slicin' Leo · 02-15-2011, 11:22 AM

Disc Replay,eBay or Swap Meets (since its usually SNES) 360 or Wii games usually come from Walmart

ToSte · 02-15-2011, 01:39 PM

I tend to just buy from pawn shops. I usually spend $15 for a 360 game, $20 tops.

~~Ninja Turtles 25 Years~~ · 03-04-2011, 11:18 PM

It depends on the game and it's availability. Right now to fully seperate myself from my broken PS3 and go back to the PS2 where my PS1, 2 games are, my only PS3 game (Resident Evil 5) that I have I would go now to the PC version. My Best Buy doesn't have it, but eBay has it cheap. But beware of eBay, I've been ripped off by a foriegner who sold me a fake Conan The Barbarian CD. I used to get my ROMs (pre PS1 years) for free on those ROM/Emulator sites. I must of built up over 3,000 ROMs, and saved me quite a mint. As far as buying my games and along with my other electronics, I perfer to give Best Buy more business over Wal-Mart of Target. Even if it were just a dollar or two more at Best Buy, I perfer the quality service from them.
