^^ question.

Most of the time I will buy my pc games from amazon.com or newegg.com.  The internet have great selection and prices of pc games.  I dont really mind waiting three days for the game to arrive.  I just play my other games while I wait for it.

I buy all my games at EB Games. There are a couple of games that I bought from Future Shop and Best Buy.

Via internet sites similar to amazon, or from supermarket discount bin. I don't download games for e.g. through Steam, too slow connection for that, and there aren't any specialized gaming stores around here.

Plenty of online stores. (Play.com and Blahdvd.co.uk for example...) Also, local game stores such as GAME and Gamestation. Plus other stores that sell PC games along with other things, such as HMV.

I buy my games at future shop, best buy, eb games and amazon.ca. I wish amazon.com would ship games to canada, they have better prices and a better selection than amazon.ca. And i like to buy bundles coz i'm cheap. I got star wars best of pc for 20$.

I buy mine at gogamer.com when im feeling lazy or my local EB when im out. Gogamer tends to have games that have been recently released about 20 bucks cheaper after 2 or 3 weeks.

I used to go to EBm but they haven't kept up with the pc section for the longest time. I've bought some games through steam, I haven't had any problems. Also I venture to Microplay (it's in canada dunno if they got it in the states) whenever possible, they keep old pc games all the time. I bought far cry for 15 bucks.

The only store that carries PC games in my town is Wal-mart so that's mostly where I get my games. If they don't have it I go to Target.

You guys must like spending money, or not live on the West Coast. :D Fry's Electronics usually has a 20-25% off sale on new titles the week they come out, so I do 80% of my game shopping there.

In the last two years, mostly Future Shop, but sometimes Best Buy, CompuSmart, or EB.  If you were to turn the clock back three or four years, I almost went to EB exclusively.

During my last visit there, I noticed that London Drugs has a decent selection of PC games that rivals anything I've seen elsewhere, and usually at reasonable prices too.  I might have to start visiting them a bit more, especially since they are closer to me than the others.

I used to use EB/GS all the time, but now I mostly use best buy. Reward Zone cards ftw. I don't trust EB anymore since I learned that their new games aren't really new...they're opened!

eBay, BestBuy, Comp USA, Amazon, and I don't like to admit it because I dislike them very much, WalMart. I also have stopped buying from EB Games, GameSpot or whatever they are now called. Their Pc game selection is a total waste of time.

That is true. Sometimes for older games, I see them being lower priced in stores, rather than on Ebay. But for the

most part, I buy on Ebay because I don't believe paying 50 dollars just for one game :P
