Where are you getting your copy of Skyrim?

[brodie21]

I was just wondering where people get their games mostly. I havent set foot in a gamestop in a few years because i order them online when i can and i get pretty good deals. for example my copy of skyrim is going to run me about 55 dollars compared to probably 65 dollars in gamestop. and thats with same day shipping from amazon.

so where do you get your games

edit: poll is acting up forget about the poll

I try to buy from GameStop when I can because I have a membership card and I might as well use it.

I've bought most of my games on Steam. I have a 2TB hard drive and by golly I'm gonna fill it.

EDIT: for console games, there's a Kmart less than 100 yards from where I work. So I walk there to get stuff.

Amazon. First time trying it. I hope I get it on the 10-11-12th.

Digital distributor, found one for $40 for the PC, needless to say I put it in my cart quickly before it bumped up in price again.

I bought it at my local gamestation. I would have pre-ordered in on Steam if not for the fact that I really really want the physical map that comes in the box.

You may now mock me mercilessly.

Probably Play N Trade or Amazon, I've never been a GameStop guy

From work on PS3. And then later from Steam for PC.

I would normally get it from Steam, but I want that map damn it!

Online from Amazon but not our Amazon, that Amazon of a different country.

Explanation:
I will probably get it several days later (shipping time) but I saved about 25% on the price.
Skyrim costs $80 here for the PS3 while the PC version "only" cost $65 at Amazon (homecountry) while it costs only $60 PS3 and $42 PC abroad. Same Amazon, different country. Just like those pr*cks at Steam. Same Region Code, probably even same big international logistics warehouse...

Captacha:

Sounds like a tasty dish, I'm getting hungry reading this.

I used to buy games from Gamestop.

Now i exclusivly by them on Steam. If it isn't on PC, i probably don't want it.

YAY! Although sometimes my UPS is....unreliable. I will wait on the front porch all day and spook the dude delivering it

 

[Vuavu]

Amazon. I've been screwed by stores too many times haha. I trust machines more than I trust humans when it concerns such things

 

[rekabdarb]

That implies i'm getting it!

You know what they say about people who assume. They should kill themselves

yeah. i ordered fallout new vegas from gamestop online and they had the bank put a hold on my account for the same price as the game while still withdrawing the price of the game from my account. fuck gamestop

Same here.

I haven't really been fan of Gamestop after they took out all of the PS2 games from the local stores but I put up with it. I've also gotten to know the employees.
Nice people, they are.

[Tukadian]
