LOL! XD k then. But.. if you got money saved up spend it NAO! If you feel like suicide buy a sports car for all your money and run it into a wall. Awesome AND good for the economy.

I tried to ease of buying games for a while. I did, but then coming to Ottawa and finding all these deals...not good.

Buying used from rental stores is actually pretty easy on the wallet though. Games are complete and the games discs are refinished, and the prices are easy on the wallet. Got GRID the other day for $15 and Guilty Gear XX AC, Yakuza 2 and GTA3 for $5 each.

Craigs/Kijiji/UsedEverywhere is pretty good too. I got my Beatles: Rock Band disc for $35 week of release. It's still going for $60 everywhere else.

Getting older games from chain stores like EB and GS isn't too shabby either. I got my FFVIII and FF Anthology, practically new for $10 each, and Lunar 2 Complete (without the fancy box and shit though) for $3!

Best advice is just be patient. I know I've almost jumped the gun a few times, but waiting it out got me some awesome deals.
