i always try to wait until the new games prices go down or used ones come in. il play old games to pass the time

Pornlord6583d ago

The games I wanted never decreased in price. Uncharted is still 50 dollars most places. I do like his friend idea "Build your own gamer community from your friendship circles if possible. Then, trade between you." I do that, I've played almost every game because of that. I got Beowolf for 13 bucks yesterday. Couldn't pass that up, I wouldn't pay a dime more for it, but that price was perfect and it should keep me occupied for a few hours. Then I'll take the game to my local small game store and sell it for 20. :) Everybody wins (exept of the guy who buys it for 25 form the game store :)

I only buy my most anticipated games everything else I rent. $25 a month for 2 games at a time. One of my better investments I believe.

Kakkoii6583d ago

I just torrent it as soon as it comes out.

And if it turns out to be a good game, I'll go and pay for it later.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing72d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit72d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing72d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9272d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
