I'm in Australia, so I'll usually shop at EB Games or GAME. Theyre both good, but I reckon EB has the better deals, so I'll stick with EB.

Steam for the PC, Game or HMV for the 360.

The sooner the consoles get their heads around digital distribution, the better.

well, I use Steam for most games, but for actual retail games dvd's I go to a local store called CD-Shop (epic name, right?) which is, btw, the ONLY games store in my city, and it seems they're aware of that, so they sell their games for more than AR$100 (actually, AR$100 is the cheapest you will find here)

More often than not I use GAME but sometimes I use Amazon or Play to get retro classics or just because they can have really great deals like Arkham Asylum for £20 about 3 months after it's release. That one was a bargain and a half

I prefer retail and I have been buying games at Best Buy as of late, mostly because I can walk there. I almost never buy games online, but if I do it'll be from Steam or from a console's marketplace.

I decided to have a look at the GAMETRADERS website and I bring sad news. There's no listing for GAMETRADERS ROBINA!!!!!

It's possible that GAMETRADERS ROBINA!!!!! is no more. However, I have discovered something pretty good instead for those of us that live in the Western Sydney area - there is a GAMETRADERS BLACKTOWN!!!!!

I used to go to EB Games until I realised how overpriced they were. I now shop at either Zone AdrenaLAN or Dungeon Crawl. Both are independent stores that usually sell games for half the price of whatever they'd cost at EB, and as well as that, are staffed by either the owner, or employees who are actually gamers, like games, and are always willing to have a chat.

estarland.com is where I go for classics and sometimes new titles since they charge 5 dollars less sometimes for new games. They've had Buy 2 get one free sales too which rawks mah sawks.

Amazon.com for PC games since estarland doesn't have those and I hate gamestop.

Gamestop as a very last resort as they're the shittiest bunch of assholes ever. Tried to sell my friend a used PS3 for the new price of 600USD. Covered in dust and everything wrapped in rubber bands in the box, sounds new to you? Or then there's the time where the clerk preordered a sports game on my credit card after I said no 3 times to him.
