Hello. I'm shopping around used PC games @ amazon.com. If you can save money...why not :D

I'm not planning to play online...of course and I'm staying away from those OA/Limited activation games either.

Any of you guys in AT got any experience from used pc games ?

If it requires a code (and so many do) be wary.
And thats getting to be very difficult with modern games because more and more require some sort of bullshit online activation, which means even with a code you still cant play it used. Again, research before buying.

Also, double check the Steam game list.

There is a list of games, albeit small, that can be purchased in store/online and can be added to Steam permenantly.

Taking the points above into consideration I've never had a problem with a used game. I would also add buying from a seller with a good rep as something to look out for.
