Whether you have a stand-alone video gaming system, or play on your personal computer, one thing that is the same across the board is the price of video games. Many are $50 or more per game. That's a lot to spend on a game that you may only play for a short time period.

You need a way to save money on video games. After all, the less you pay for each game, the more money you can spend on other video games.

Here's a look at a few ways to pay less for video games so you can play more:

- Watch for Sales - When video games are first released, the games will be sold at a premium price. If you must have it right away, you will pay for it. After video games have been out a few weeks, many stores will start to drop the prices, so you should watch for those sales.

- Buy Used - Want to get video games for up to half off? Why not purchase a game someone else has already played. Many people play, and beat, video games quickly. Once they are done with the video games, they often get rid of them. From stores that sell used video games to eBay auctions, you could well get the game for up to half off the retail price. Just make sure the game disc is in good condition.

- Rent Them - Just like there are video rental clubs, there are also programs that allow rental of video games. In many cases you can play for a few days and beat the game, then send it back for a new one. That is much better than paying $50 for video games and then having them pile up on the shelf after you have beat them.
