Where do you normally buy your games?

[Camaron 1]

I buy most of my games from Game, plenty of choice and the prices are reasonable. On the issue of Woolworth's, there are loads of them around here (England), though I have never bought a game from them.

Gamestop! They have a good selection of PC games and usually have the newest. I also buy some of my DS games there because they have a great selection of new and used games. Used games are especially good for DS games because I think new games are a tad bit overpriced.

Sometimes I preorder new games (such as Seasons) off of Amazon. Even with TS2 Seasons that was a brand new EP I got some sort of a lower price

I usually get my games at EB Games or Gamestop and if I don't find them there I go with amazon.

I have previously bought at Best Buy, Target, even WalMart, but most often at EB Games or GameStop. The bigger stores (excepting Best Buy) have bigger fish to fry than computer games and thus only usually carry the big brand name games (I got SC4 at Target), but EB Games and GameStop have such a focus on consoles nowadays that they shove the PC stuff to the back - in one local case, the PC rack is in front of the door to the stockroom, so you end up getting interrupted by the store employees while looking at it. Best Buy is the best for window-shopping, but their prices tend to be a little higher (in my impression). Usually I pick out a game there, then go over to EB or Gamestop to see if they have it, and if they don't (which has been rare) I go back to Best Buy. (SC4 was a fluke; I had the earlier SC's and a Target gift card for my birthday, so I went there to see what I could use it on and saw SC4Deluxe on the shelf...)

I usally buy my games at EB Games, but they all seem to have turned into Gamestops. Sometimes I buy at BestBuy or Target.

SimCity is the only game I play... I bought it at Best Buy

[LarksTonguesInAspic 28]

I bought my computer and SC4RH at Best Buy. I got a great deal on the computer, one that even Walmart couldn't beat.

One caveat, however: Best Buy loads up your new machine with all kinds of cookies and adware. I figured this out pretty quick and cut off their little spies. I also renamed the main file directory to remove their name. I'll bet other stores do this too, it's too sinister to be limited to Best Buy alone.

SC4RH cost me just $20, I used the gift card they gave me for the comp.

Ooh... old thread I didn't post in.

I don't have a preference, really... I've bought games at Best Buy, EB Games, Gamestop, Wal-Mart, Circuit City, and Target.

As for Rush Hour, Simtropolis ran a contest before its release and I was one of the winners.

Buy games? Wha? ... this is the Internet pal...

rofl... but seriously... I usually buy my games at a local shop called 'Granger Games'... those smelly multi-nationals ain't seeing a penny. Plus... all new games in that shop for the week have a 10% discount...

[ILL Tonkso 1,239]

This is interesting question ...

I have legal UK SC4 DeLuxe with UK movement (but Thanks some Modd) and ...

I have some another disk with SC4RH without any nightlights .... 

I can't buy normal SC4 in my country ...

[Skram 4]

EB games for sure!lol i normally walk their from my house

[fern244 1]

I love Belgium. Everything about it is great, untill i realised they barely sell games in english and never books in english. I have noticed something i find a bit rascist. In countries like holland they sell ZERO games or books in english. Most other countries have the decency to have a few but holland have zero. Maybe they have a few in amsterdam. Ok, to the question. I buy my games of amazon.co.uk Amazing site, the cheapest games you will find in Europe.

[Smarty218 2]
