that is an excellent point.
the way publishers advertise some games is highly misleading when they make bold statements like "you will be amazed", "thrilling", "exciting", "groundbreaking" when at best they turned out to be meh....

i see those things as false advertising, especially multiplayer games that have major flaws in stability **cough...cough.....BF3**

as much as i love the game, i wish i could get my money back for it as the flaws were present in their last offering and never fixed.

The closest I've come to pirating was gamesharing. I only buy games for multiplayer and great games with engaging storyline that I know are worth it like skyrim. Most games end up in the bargain bin soon enough anyway. Sometimes you feel like you got burned buying new though like when I bought naughty bear for $60. What an awful decision. Now I wait for reviews and ask people what they think before I buy. They should think of a better way to price games they aren't all worth $60.

All the games that are installed in multiMan are also accompanied by a physical original copy in my house.

In general I’m patient and in general I never buy a game that is more expensive than £20 @ play.com

However I went out and bought UC3 at the local store at about double the price I usually allow myself.

I buy about a game a month new, (With my CFW PS3 these have mostly been 360 recently) sometimes two if I've got extra money and sometimes none if I haven't got enough, or there's nothing out that I want. I also buy two or three pre-owned games as well.

I disagree with those who say Games are too expensive, just like any other commodity, Games are worth whatever people will pay for them, and it seems that at the moment people will pay £40-50 for new ones.

I personally rarely pay more than £35 for a new game, and when I do, it's usually for a game I can justify, e.g. Fifa 11, I'm still playing it and will miss out on Fifa 12, continue playing it until 13 comes out and then get that full price.

The first Sonic game was really bad; a total waste of space.

As I said, I’m patient.
