No, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get the majority of pre-8th gen games that I do. However I do clean the games when I get them before assimilating them into my collection.

No, sometimes you find a game you want to play and it's already out of print it's nice to have the used alternative.

i wouldnt necessarily put it that way, but i never liked buying used games because the idea that somebody else used it before me is a bit unappealing. somebody else bought it, took the plastic casing off, probably threw the box aside for however long they owned it, used the game for a bit, then returned it. in the past year ive opened up a bit to buying used games just because i found a local retail store that sells them at pretty unbeatable prices. 3DS games that still cost $40 anywhere else could be as low as $25, and some older games getting as low as $10. but still, looking at these games, there is noticeable wear and tear. the box is a bit dinged up, the cartridge sticker will occasionally have something stained on it, and it just doesnt feel like im buying a quality product. as for myself, i buy a game, i put the box on a shelf, if its a 3DS game i put the cart in my carrying case, and nothing bad ever happens to them. and it just feels nice to have all my games of the same like-new quality, so when i do get the occasional used game with even some slight wear and tear, i cant help but cringe at it.

Nowadays I do not buy used games any more. I hate buying a really great game used as the developer makes nothing off it.

Huh? I'm the opposite. I love used games. I'm able to play alot of games I wouldn't be able to or took a risk on.

This is one of my idiosyncrasies I guess, all my video games are new, I really don't want to go for second hand.

Also I will not test this but I'm pretty sure my OCD would kick in with second hand material.

I hate used disc games because 8/10 times the discs are scratched up lol. So cbf looking through all the used copies.

No.

Death to physical games; death to pre-owned games.
Digital forever!

Dude, if you have a problem with that, don't ever touch a coin... or a door handle. Ever.

Hate is a strong word, but I'm not really a fan of physical games anymore, be it used or new. I was getting pretty OCD about my games becoming old as time went on, discs getting scratches (DVD's scratch just by looking at them honestly), etc. so I sold them all and I just buy digital now. Much more practical and I don't have to worry about my games getting worn down with time =P
