I never said I JUST opened it.  This was way before this gen started. 

oh.  well the OP implies (to me) an event just happened to prompt this thread.   so how long did you wait?   

 

..anything greater than 6 months and my point still stands.  games devalue so fast there is no point in buying one that costs more than $5-$10 if you aren't going to play it right away.  

It was maybe 3 or 4 months after the expiration date when I had realized what had happened.  I preordered LBP2 from Amazon for the bookends, the sackboy plush, and the R&C costumes.  So when I was finally ready to play, WHOOPS... my loss (minor but still.)

What prompted this thread was my research on Steins Gate 0 for PS4.  I just purchased Steins Gate for the PS3 NA version but during my research on 0, I learned that the first print of 0 came with a voucher for an updated version original game.  So I first felt compelled to purchase 0 asap, but I then later learned that the voucher was for Japan only.  All this got me thinking about my past voucher experience which prompted the thread.
