Some people have massive gamerscores? I assume most the games played are borrowed/rented?

I have 8 games. Cod4 and Halo3 take up most of my gaming time with a bit of PGR4 and GoW.

Does anyone have a massive number of games?

Currently I own 20 which is quite a lot for me. Usually only own about 10 as I trade a lot in.
Rented about 30 games in the past year I think.

i own 20+, silly really. I used to be a hardcore pc gamer turned console, my playing time has gone WAY down, personally if i could i'd get a new release, clock it then sell it on or rent more. Its dumb i have so many games but rental places here are shocking for 360 games, near me anyway

I have 34 360 games. I get about 1 game a month on rental although I sometimes forget to send them back so haven't had one in a while. I used to trade them in but I live abroad so shops aren't so keen to take them in.

do you not feel cheated when you trade a game in and you get like an 8th of its original value? Thats why i seem to never trade unless i've clocked it or cant be bothered with it anymore. Its also why i still have 40+ dreamcast games...

I have about 15, but at least 6 of them haven't even been played yet. I just get games I want if I see it in a good deal.
Plus most of my games stop being played once I complete them first time, and COD4 is the first one I have been online with, hence why I don't have any multiplayer achievements.

Don't even ask how many original xbox or PC games I have. Or Amiga. Or Spectrum. Yes, I still have all of those too :o

me2, its so annoying!

Which begs my original question to those who trade in? Do you not feel screwed because you get like £8 for a game that cost you £40?

I don't rent games as I think its a bit silly... I have 17 retail games and about 5 or 6 arcade games :) When I buy a game I usually try and complete it to the full so its usually one game a month. Im planning on getting Assassins Creed after my January exams

When i trade in, i used to use the video rental companies £9.99 trade in, trading in pretty new stuff, so it was always cheap, they have put that up to £14.99 making it not so enticing.

Ive currently got £140 of store credit at a high street store from stuff i traded in, I got £48 for halo 3 legendary and £42 for guitar hero 3.

If I buy brand new on release (which is rare) I'll pay £38 or so and generally sell if I'm quick for £28/£30 (or more).
I recently bought COD4 and Orange Box for £25 each and I'd look to get £20 back for them.
I did buy Two Worlds Collectors Ed. 2nd hand for £22 incl. delivery a few months ago and traded it in on the high street (impulse buy) for £23.

So over-all if you're smart you don't need to lose much money at all.

Currently about 6 games, I don't see the point in keeping many more, once I have finished one, either completed (not yet happened) or I get bored, then they get traded in.

I've got 26 games at the moment and 30 Live Arcade titles. Plus, I've only had the console for three months.

I get a lot of them sent to me for free, though :)
