Me I shop at Gamestop, I remember growing up in Alaska that I would get my games at Walmart, thats cool, but I couldn't sell them back. When I moved down into Idaho and was riding my bike, I went to the Mall and found it, the people were friendly, they knew what they were talking about. And best of all, I could get used games or trade in my old ones.

So how do you get your games? Online, offline, if so which store? Or which site? Tell me!!!

Edit: Oh forgot to mention, I sometimes use E-Bay for some of those hard to find games.

Whichever store has 'em. Usually either Blockbuster or Fry's, but Gamestop works as a last resort.

Oh, and Walmart...

Steam and GameStop, mostly. Steam because I don't have to go anywhere and GameStop to find good bargains, and for games that aren't on the PC.

I find Gamestop to be the most reliable, plus Preorder Bonuses is a nice touch, glad that other stores do that too, but not as often unless its Big BIG Game titles

There are lots of Gamestops around where I live, so I usually go to one of them. There's also a store in my town where you can just "special order" a game and they'll have it the next day.

GAME, EB Games, Big W, JB HiFI, The Gamesmen, eBay, Amazon and anywhere else that I see games in the store. Always new.
Also, I'm currently looking at importing a game off some really creepy Japanese import site, so that'd make another store I buy from.

Edit
And never downloaded games. Fuck Steam and fuck digital distribution, I like my game cases and discs.

Well I usually go to Gamestop, and only because I have friends who work there.
Honestly, I had bad experiences with Gamestop before... but now that I am friends with some of the guys there, including the manager, I usually go there. Gotta support my friends.

Yeah I think we all did before we became regulars at our respective stores
