i think renting is better because u can download games to ur console if u have it >FIXED< so u save about $50 dollars on a game but if u dont i would say buying is better since a lot of people dont have the time to beat a game in less than a week unless u rent from gamefl.y

Usually people rent games to see if they suck or something, I'd just youtube or google the game too see if it does. But I usually buy games instead of renting them.

I rent all of my console games from Gamefly because it's actually cheaper, but I buy all of my PC games from Steam usually when they are on sale.

I usually buy 'em. But not right away when they're $50-$70, I wait until it's down to like $25-$35 in a few month.
