I was always paranoid about game discs being so messed up that they wouldn't play. That's why I always tried to stay away from used games. However, I have a PS3, now. I have read many an article bragging about how scratch-proof Blu-Ray discs are. I may start getting used games, soon. Especially since the price of new games has jumped from a standard $50 to $60. I got cleaned out when I bought GH: Aerosmith (which was about 49% of a rip-off on the PS3). >.<

i tend to buy new games more often. i feel more comfortable buying a new game over a used game. i feel that the quality will be better.

I buy new games. Sealed games. I prefer that. Just as salvy said, the quality will be better.

I mostly buy used games. Just because i can get a larger quantity. Sometimes I worry about if it is going to work or not, but mst of the time in my case it works.

Most stores have a warranty period for used games, so I can understand the thought behind buying new for quality, but if you're guaranteed a working copy (for let's say, 30 days), might as well get it for cheap.

Most the time new.

I like collecting all the cases and everything, and we don't exactly have any game places nearby which sell used games...those are only in bigger cities...

I don't buy a lot of games, so when i do, i buy 'm new. Most of the times i only buy games for multiplayer fun =p
