Renting though, I pay $12 a month and get to play as many games as I want, 2 at a time. I just happen to live by one of their distribution centers as well, so the games get to me much quicker than normal. So I figure, pay $60 a month buying about a game a month, or $12 a month, but I never actually own any games.
It's something to consider. Some enjoy just OWNING their own collection, for the pleasure of saying they own many games, but I had over 100 genesis games and near as many SNES games as a kid, so I think I'm over that, hehe.

See that is smart Khaos but the thing about me is I don't have the time to dedicated to games. I like just getting involved with a couple and constantly playing them.
The last xbox 360 game I bought was Rainbow Six Vegas in November and I also bought Call of Duty 3. So I play those two constantly cuz I don't have enough time to get bored with them since I have a busy life (Kind of sucks hahaha). Also I bought Turtles arcade which I still play often along with mortal kombat, contra and worms. Those three games I don't play often but still enjoy playing. So it is worth it to me to spend the 60 bucks because I trade in games I don't play anymore like Hitman bc I already finished that game on all difficulty levels so I need to trade it in. But The next game I might get depending on how good the demo is; Shadowrun, Unreal Tournament 3, or a personal favorite Area 51 2 that is coming out. The first one was not popular but multiplayer was so much fun.
