Three words: State of Emergency. Could this game be any more crappier? There was all this stupid hype surrounding the game prior to release (and yes, I was a victim of the hype) so I went out and stupidly bought it and regret it oh so much. The second game I regret would probably be God of War...of course, I actually did try the demo first, but it tricked me...totally tricked me with the Hydra boss. Grrr...

Okay well it all depends on which games I want that are out. If it's games that I am sure I will like, I will buy them immediately provided I have the dough. As for renting, I used to rent a lot until Blockbuster started carrying less and less games I want to play. So now I rent from Gamefly and I have about 15 games in my Queue right now. I would only buy a game that I have rented if the game still stays in my mind for a while. Like Onimusha, I rented that first and played a little of it then returned it...but it stayed in my mind and I found that I really liked it, so I went out and bought it. Yeah, so that's how I work.
