Thread: Do you buy games directly on the store or buy them online?

I do both but typically I buy in the store for new games so that I can trade them in for my cash back. If the game is fairly old and cheap, I buy it online so I don't have to switch disks.

Trading in a game for a little money is a nice way to recoup some of your investment as games can be expensive. Also, you can put that money on a newer game and enjoy the fun all over again.

That is right. I think you can reverse your pay on Steam. Didn't tried so far.

Really? That's pretty nice thing.

I hope. I will check.

It is advisable for people with not so far internet connection?

I do prefer the same thing.

Against it? Why?

Is that really possible? But wouldn't that be stealing or cheating?

Yes it is recommended.

I prefer online buying, but in store has it's pros also.
Actually the first original game I bought was in store. Rest of them online.

Mine too. Lord of the Rings Battle for Middle Earth II

Do you mean because it costs a lot for internet bandwidth? That could pose a problem for some.
