I'm not much of a gamer, not like how I was maybe 15 years ago or so, and for the most part, I was really into hanging out in the arcades and playing arcade games. I don't own any of the new generation consoles. Most up-to-date thing I have is a Nintendo Gamecube, and I originally bought that years ago for the sole purpose of playing Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker. Prior to that, the PS2, and I received that as a gift. I still rarely have games for it since I was never much of a Sony person. I use my PS2 for DVDs more than for gameplay...especially my region 2 DVDs I import from Japan. Darn my liking of Jpop/Jrock...and getting the concert DVDS. ><

Anyway, when I was younger, my cousins and I would just rent games from the video store to try them out. If it was a liked game, more than likely, we would ask "Santa" (depending on our ages, of course, at the time) or our parents for the game for Christmas. Is the price for game rentals really high now? Back then, renting games didn't seem to cost much at all. Seems it'd be easier to just rent a game if it's readily available as opposed to bothering with the hassle of ROMs/Emulators for these newer games.
