Video Games addiction is not an official clinical disorder. Is it? Who cares? Video games are fun, addictive and hurt few very people, at least in real life. True, simulated characters are often mauled, beaten, run over or turned into mushrooms. But video games can help you to relax and de-stress after after a hard day in the corporate world. (What big financial people still play video games? You heard it here first!)

Cheap Video Games For Sale
Where can you find video games for a low price? If you pay full retail price then you are just giving money away -- and to powerful corporations like Sony or Nintendo who have Mario parties with your consumer dollars. The best place to find cheap video games is online through popular video games stores. Some popular online stores include Half Mania, which sells games at half off the retail price, provided you take some time to try new online sites and services. Half Mania also sells DVDs, books, CDs, as well as the top video game consoles like Nintendo Wii, DS, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Video Game Central offers video games for cheap, while Cheap Ass Gamer, is not an online store but can help you locate the best deal from all the major retailers and online websites with its price comparison feature.

Another option is to search for used video games. Popular online sellers of pre-owned video games include Eb Games, Used Video Games, Video Game Trader, and Used Games.com. Some of these sites, including Game Fly the largest of these companies, offer gamers the chance to rent video games for an unlimited time. Though the company has a 21.95 (or $14.95) monthly membership fee, you get your choice of one or two games that you can keep for as long as you like with free shipping and handling.

Where Else To Find Cheap Video Games
Though online stores and auction sites like Ebay are likely to have a specific title that you're looking for, you can find discount video games at local half price stores. Bookstores or CD stores usually have a pre-owned entertainment section and sell video games for discounted prices. If you are in the mood for cheap games, and are not looking for a specific title, try shopping locally and you may find some bargains. Auction sites are also a possibility as many people don't mind buying used video games as long as they're cheap! Between Ebay, Video Game Central and your local half price store, you're sure to find some fun video games for DS, Wii, PSP and XBOX this summer.
