Forums → Games → Renting vs Buying

I buy games that I know I will have a long time which are usually the ones that have a good multiplayer such as Call of Duty for an example. I usually don't rent games at all.

buy mp games.
rent sp ones. and if you like the sp a lot, buy it =)

BUY BUY BUY BUYING IS BETTER

Definitely buying. Renting means someone else might have had it first. Back in the days when I rented games, they usually came in poor condition. I always try to keep the games I buy in mint condition, then I can resell the game if I find it boring or I finished it.

ah. my bad on the double post. wait this is the third post...so sorry about the triple post.

i always buy games

i only rent if i want to try out a game

probaly depends
for me, buying is better

You should just buy it.

I always buy my games, because around here, I don't believe there is any point where you can rent 'em.

Just buy em and then trade em in for new ones when you are done. It's much smarter than renting.

I always buy my videogames. Even though renting is cheaper, you cant keep the game and about twenty others @ the same time with only using the same company, and you sometimes cant get all the trophies or achievments or whatever.

I don't really play video games anymore so i only bought 4 me

I normally buy my games, because I don't have time to play through a game quickly. I'd have to play it in small segments because of my schedule.
