I'm extremely selective; ever since I've gotten the Playstation 3, a few years ago, I usually purchase or receive 2-3 games yearly on Amazon.
During my Playstation 2 days though, I'd regularly trade games in and averaged around 10 games per year. Not only was this due to Gamestop not being so stingy with their trades back then, but I was younger and had lower standards for games.

@derp
Actually I buy my games after they've been out for a few months. Usually around 20-30$. I'd never buy a 60$ game on release day. |

| Very strict. Ever game goes through a lengthy screening process, including a background test, drug test and preg test. Followed up with a 500 multiple choice questionnaire on questions ranging from Roman History to Pop culture trivia. This of course is just a basic and admittedly flawed system. I tend to add a physical and mental evaluation among others somewhere in there. I've been a bit lazy recently. |

@derpalope
I play PC as well as console. I tend to prefer older PC games like Deus Ex though.
But I still prefer console. |

...and even if I used Steam as my primary place to get games, I'd still only purchase 2-3 games yearly, maybe 4.
I'm not one to really buy something just because it's marked down ridiculously low. Like Terraria; if it was marked down to say...99 cents, I still wouldn't buy it because it's not my kind of game. |

I don't really buy a whole lot of games per year, but I buy more than 2-3.
As of right now, I've bought 4 games and in total it was only $50. |

| I buy whatever is on my mind that day. Some times I make GameStop runs and buy anything under $5 (Some of those games aren't even half bad) |

Under $20- I will buy it if it's newer. $30-$60- Iffy, would depend on what I have interest on. $61 and up- Better be a limited edition of my favorite game.

@Derp
Ever since you started PC gaming your IQ's dropped by about 50. -- If I was a part of a cell, I'd have to be the cell membrane due to how selective I am. Ha. Haha. You know. Because the cell membrane is selective.
I don't buy a game unless I like what it's about. |

| It's so much selective, it's more what I really want to buy first, and what I'll just wait to drop in price. |

I'm very strict, usually only paying $30-40 tops
I don't play many of them though, sadly.

my system for evaluating games check a few (reliable) review sites watch a few LP videos to see some gameplay(but not so far that it spoils the game completely) check for nud!ty and anything else that is s3xually graphic(this is the only kind of game my parents won't let me buy, really) check rating not because i take it as law but i want to know what I'm in for if the price is 40-60 dollars for a new copy, I'll probably buy a used copy because honestly as much as I love some Nintendo games I'm not going to pay 60 dollars for a new copy when that game has been out since October but for the most part it seems like there have been price drops since then
