I only buy games that I know I will enjoy for a long time. If I am ever in doubt I will rent the game for a few days and play it as much as possible.

This way I have no reason to buy a game that I will not enjoy.

Given a restricted budget I only buy titles with a lot of 2 player (or more) replayability, or games (mostly triple A) which I know I’m going to like.

I tend to rent a lot of games because I know I’m going to be able to complete them in a day (mores the pity). Last weekend I rented Enter The Matrix – at first I was very disappointed due to the very, very, very dodgy camera angles, but I got into it after a while. Unfortunately after you have ‘hacked' it senseless and completed the game with both Niobe and Ghost, replayability is not foremost in it’s appeal. Such is the case with a lot of recent titles

I dont buy too many games. If i do buy one it is only one that i have been wanting to for a long time and im sure i will play it alot. I have only made a bad choice once with DBZ Budikai, it got old really fast. The only reason i bought it was because i liked the series. But in one case this worked out greatly with .Hack. I love the series and thats why i bought the games, the games are great. I am currently waiting for the 3rd one to be reliesed.

only one game stands out in my memory as having been disappointing enough to mention.

Hexen- stay far, far away unless you're holding a hammer and intend to make the world a better place by smashing it.

i usually check reviews and only buy the games that look promising, but sometimes a low price tag catches my eye and the shop-aholic in me takes over.

Thumbs down

The only times i've been letdown by a game has been when i don't buy a game and it turns out to be good and by the time i decide to get the game you can't find it anywhere.

I don't buy games that i know i won't like. I am a huge RPG and anime fan but i also tend to enjoy games such as Devil May Cry and sports games every now and then.
