game and amazon.



I buy them from Gamestop, only new games though. So everything goes to the publishers.



Retro and cheap current gen games: Amazon

New releases and games on sale: EBGames

Most AAA games new I get from Gamestop.

I buy a lot of games digital, but mostly indies. I will buy digital AAA games that are old and go on super cheap sales.

Once in a great while I will buy a newer game off someone on Craigslist (Infamous 2, TLoU, and Arkham Origins are only times I can remember) or a bulk lot of games on eBay. In 2012 I got some crazy deal of like 9 games 2 or 3 which were new, for like 70 bucks.

PS2, 3, 4, and XB1 consoles I got all from Best Buy as they offer unbeatable long term 0% interest if you don't feel like paying for something right on opening gen day.



Amazon only. Quick and cheap.

Gamestop still turn a profit from selling new games, it's far less margin that on used stuff but still they don't stock New games for fun. Main way to send the most money to a publisher would be to buy it from steam or XBLA/PSN/Eshop, that way you aren't paying for the truck driver to bring the games to your local store even heh, cut out all the middle men.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

Amazon, is one of the few places where my third world country is not rejected.
If there something really special for a pre-order I can get a friend to buy me a game in gamestop, but that happens once or twice a year.



9/10 times it's Amazon
