How often do you buy games?

[MrDawn]

How often do you buy video games? Every week? A few times a month? Once or maybe twice every 6 months?

I've noticed I bought less games over the years, but come when I get taxes I wanna get some games I've been meaning to pick up during the last year or so. I'd have to say I buy games every month or two currently, sometimes 3 months.

Never have, they were gifts.

Never anymore, can't afford them.

 

[Progrumz]

I never really buy games anymore. None of them look all that interesting.

Not at $60-$70 for sure!

Yep, exactly! Even with Steam sales or bargain bins they're out of my league at the moment. Just a luxury I can't afford

It depends how often games come out that I want really, but even if a lot come out that I want they'll share very close release dates or be a few months apart, so the shortest time I've gone without buying a game has been probably 6-ish months. As for longest, I think I went a year or so without buying a new game when the PS5 launched and any new titles I wanted were ones I wanted to play on PS5, but I didn't have one at launch so just held off on buying a lot of the launch year titles and got them at a huge discount instead.

Well, it depends on the kind of game that's out. If it's worth it, I'm going to buy. It's like how I'm waiting for Hogwarts Legacy that's coming out soon. I'm getting on my Playstation 4.

I do game shoppings every 3 months. I ensure that I have made plans of the games that I will want to buy before giving it a try.

Sadly, it's been very little lately. I did get a PS5 and was able to play FFVII Intermission/DLC and Crisis Core, but I haven't really been playing lately due to exhaustion and burnout. I think this year will offer some more options.

I never buy games. Thats @tonychu's job

It depend on what game I want to play or what is my interest. Since last year I try to buy games that are on sale, I think the pricing of 80$ for a new game is just too much, I know it take alot of work to release and create a game but seriously? Sometimes you gotta buy the game and then pay for a membership to play online, this is a joke in my opinion. I do pay a membership to play Runescape but the game is free first of all, you choose if you want the membership or not. Now that I'm playing on PC it's really a problem anymore but when I used to play on Xbox, I had to pay the Xbox Live subscription to play online.

Especially for a game that you can beat in like 6 hours.
