For PC games, I use Steam, and for Console games, I use my local indie game store, which is amazing. Better then any gamestop I've ever been to.
Where do you shop for games?

Gamestop, 'cause we employees get 15% + 10% off (since the Edge card stacks). Sometimes I buy more obscure titles off the 'Bay or at any hole-in-the-wall places that have old school ps1 and xbox games.
sorry to say, but Gamestop is pretty much it for me, though their PC game selection has been dwindling, so I also go to Best Buy, and ofcourse I occasionally get something on steam.
Mainly Steam I have to admit, but I always have a wander around any games store when I'm out shopping, just in case there's a bargain in among all the old PS2 or PC stuff, they're normally desperate just to shift anything like that anyway!
Speaking of Steam damn them and their Borderlands temptation, I'm really poor until the middle of next week and they're tempting me with Borderlands for £6 and all the DLC for £6 til friday, I think I'm gonna stay strong and hope it shows up again in the January sales.

Used to use Gamestop, but now I mostly use Amazon. The price is better, the incentive is better, and for most popular games they are on my doorstep around 10am on release day.
I still occasionally swing by Gamestop if I am on campus and near the store.

i used to shop at game crazy in hollywood video before that closed up..they were really cool and despite being underage they let me buy m-rated and stuff and they were cool and helpful.
gamestop on the other hand has on three seperate occasions sold me games that were so scratched they did not work.fuck those stupid dicks.gamecrazy also had a warranty for their games,you could break it in half bring it into the store and they replace it,in addition to havingf a disc buffing service.in conclusion gamecrazy was the shit.

I've stopped buying at Gamestop altogther. The staff is quite nasty and I flipped off the manager and told him to suck my dick in front of the entire store after I'd had enough of their shit. I'm kinda proud of that.
Instead I shop at either a local store called "We've Got Freakin' Video Games" or I use Amazon

Well it's good to see that GAMETRADERS!!!!! is still up and running, I'm gonna check to see if they've got a GAMETRADERS!!!!! in MelbourneAlpha1089 said:
Also to anyone wondering, I have no evidence to show that GAMETRADERS NORTHLAND!!!!! isn't run by regular people, so I'm forced to assume that it's run entirely by Stormtroopers. Could GAMETRADERS NORTHLAND!!!!! get any more awesome?

GameStop for me, I know the people who work there and they're pretty awesome, help me a lot, give me tips, and once upgraded a game for free for me, from used to a new collectors edition, for the price of the used.
Man I love those guys, I miss working a few shops down from them at the nearby candy store. Though I dislike how pricey games have become lately, almost sixty bucks for a game, only a few years back it was only fifty for a new release.
