It's rare to see me rush and buy on the first day. There exceptions.. but I usually wait for things to get reviewed, to people post their opinions on the net... and then I buy.

A combination of all.

Most my new games I pre-order, but I still have a huge backlog.

Bet - "PES 2009 (PS3) will sell (closer to) 150k first week in Japan" - Pooperscopper
"It will sell closer to 125k" - Me I agree. ME = OWNED :(

End of '09 Predictions:

Wii: 78 million
X360: 35 million
PS3: 27 million
