i rarely buy a game right when it comes out. i think in the past year i bought scb and rs3 just so i could get online w/my friends. for the most part, though, i wait for them to show up used at gamespot. with the 10 dollar membership, the games are all 10% off then. and when you add in the specials they run, like buy 2, get 1 free, it makes for much cheaper game buying.

how do you all do it? preorder on everything and have it the first day, or wait and hear how everyone else beat the game, and then buy it?
