A new Reader's Feature extols the virtues of not buying video games on day one and how waiting six months does more than just save money.

Very few people bought it at full price A reader explains how and why he’s never paid full price for a video game in over a decade and why he never gets a new title on day one. There was some talk recently about what the term hardcore gamer really means but I think it’s clear that, like most things, it’s all a matter of perspective.

Actually, I say Ubisoft don’t realise it but I don’t think it’s any coincidence that the game’s big new patch and the Lando Calrissian DLC came out this week. I don’t think they realised the game was doomed when they first planned its release date, but they clearly know now that everyone’s waiting to get it cheap during Black Friday. I’m not going to insist everyone do what I do or suggest anyone’s wrong for buying day one or soon after, but for me it makes no sense.
