New and used. Depends on the game itself. I own a xbob360 so half the time new (when call of duty: mordern warfare 2 is released, it's getting bought). I picked up a ps2 a few weeks back so I have to buy most of my game used. I also own a Saturn, a Dreamcast, a PSP, a DS, and will order a Neogeo Pocket soon as I've just received a NGPC->DC link cable. Except for the PSP, and DS, I have no choice but to buy used because most of of the systems I've listed are no longer being developed for.

Only when the price is right
Cause I know many a**holes, who wanted to sell them like they were new

Usually buy bargain bin titles that are new if I can't find them there then I buy used.

360 = New games always the odd second hand one
PS3 = Second Hand unless there is a must have title but there isn't so second hand for me.
PC = Steam or torrents if i want to try a new game but i don't play PC games now.

but the price has to be right like stated before gamestation and game are bloody bad for selling a second hand game for £35 when the new version is £40 how can they justify that they only give you £20 or £25 for it and sell it at a huge profit tossers.

I don't care if it's used or new, I just go for the best price. I mean I got Call of Duty 4 for £20 when usually it's £30-£40 still in the shops. I mean if a game has came out recently, I always get the new game since there is sometimes not that much of a difference in price.

Although, when it comes to new PC games I tend to get them off Steam since they always have the best deals on game, in my opinion.

No, I don't. I really prefer wait the price to drop to get the game. But when it comes to special editions that interest me, then I don't wait because I know they will disappear, with some exception like Bioshock Metal Box, that dropped to 20 euro and still was available for shopping. Anyway, Bioshock was a present from my brother, so I don't mind.
