ApolloVI Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 What I mean by that is, do you generally jump on new games as they come out, or do you wait a while to see the reviews and maybe a sale to get games for cheaper? Personally, I'm mostly the latter. There's a few games every year that I'll make sure to get day 1 since I know I'll want to play it, but for the most part, I tend to wait to see if the game is good and also wait to see if I can get it at a discount. Sometimes I'll wait years. I feel like this is the most logical way to game nowadays, especially with the wealth of free and cheap games that are out there thanks to Steam sales, Xbox Games with Gold, and Playstation Plus. There are many games that I would've bought eventually, but ended up in my collection for no cost at all just because I waited a while and they ended up on GwG. What about you? What's your philosophy on buying games? DC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
9Online Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 I love gaming but I'm not hardcore to the point where I'm trying to spend $60 on every new game that comes out. When I bought the original COD: Black Ops I was playing that one for years since it became my favorite (especially zombies mode). Usually, I stick with a game for a while until I become bored with it. I waited for 2 COD releases before I eventually updated myself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aimee Hart Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I try not to get too gung-ho when it comes to games. Sometimes for a game I really, really want then I usually pre-order but ever since Dragon Age Inquisition let me down, I'm more cautious when it comes to pre-ordering.

Yarik Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I never have pre-ordered any game. I usually try to get the games which I like on a sale in Steam. Not everyone can afford to purchase all the games on their full price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DylanC Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 It tends to depend on the game, but, for the most part, if I really want it, I'll happily pre-order it. Not having a game I really, really want at launch is a pet peeve of mine so I tend to cave. Then again, it's a great feeling picking up a game in a sale and saving a ton of dough!

MegaphoneStallone Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I don't own a game that's less than 20 years old at this point. So I'd say I'm not necessarily patient, I'm just not in on the new stuff as yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
