How can you be sure you’re getting the best price on video games? It used to be that renting video games was a perfect solution and as inexpensive and pain-free as visiting your local movie store. But avid game enthusiasts who rent many games at once discovered how quickly the rental fees can add up. Add to that the heart ache of forgeting to return a stack of games on time and you’ll find that the late fees can really cost you.

Here are some helpful hints for getting the best deals on video games and video game rentals.

First, check with your public library. Many offer free video game rentals to members of their community. You probably pre-paid for their selections with your taxes so you might as well get your money’s worth.

Video Game Review Web Sites – Generally web sites offering video game reviews include game details, ESRB ratings, available platforms, even actual game footage. Check out the video graphics online first. You may find the game is overly violent for your appetite or not acceptable for your own children, even though the ESRB ratings indicate it should be appropriate.

Never Pay Retail – With online discount companies like eBay and Amazon, there’s simply no reason to pay full price ever again. Many times you’ll find games for XBox 360 on sale by checking these sites first.

Rent Video Games Online – Quite a few companies offer online video game rentals for one low monthly fee. Members choose from over 6000 of the most popular games, delivered right to their door, can hold them as long as they want, never pay a late fee for keeping them too long, and return games to the company with pre-paid envelopes. If you find a game you love, simply tell the company and you can keep it for a small price. A few vendors include a free trial period. Check them out to see how the service works before you join.

Avid gamers who are serious about their passion can save a ton of cash when they know how to find them.
