Personally, I like ownership. :) Even though renting is much more affordable... and there's not a sense of wasting money when the game sucks.. there's just something about being able to revisit the game whenever I feel like it, instead of renting it over and over again.

owning for sure, less of a hassle and u dont have to worry about if you damage it, usually rentals make you pay for the damages if any

I only buy games.. then I trade them in when I'm completely done with the game.

I prefer to own the games I get. I don't like owning cause I can't get to finish most of my games even though I can beat a game in less then a week if its not a forever game.

depends on the replay value, or overall length of the game for me.
like halo 3, you have too own to enjoy it fully.

but, something easy is usually what i rent.

Looks like nobody on here likes to rent games lol

Another reason why I hate renting is if the person who had the game before you was a smoker then the game case stinks of smoke.

I rent games when I have a feeling they might not be that great.
But most of the time i buy them.

id rahter own, as well as everyone else it seems
i wouildent mind renting before buying to check if its worth the wad of chash first.
to me it seems like a good idea,
but i havent rented a video game in many years seeing as i dont have any valid memberships

I prefer owning my own games rather than renting them.

Owning... it lets people that come round my place know my gaming preference...

plus a bookcase full of shiny games makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside :D

I like to own but renting the game never hurts... like say you want diablo 2 but youve never played it. rent it, try it, buy it.

^thats my motto^
