I do that too.. and you save *a lot* of money..
I picked up Morrowind and both of its expansions for less than $20 Cdn, and ditto with IWD/HOW/IWD2..
Of course... seeing as I'm getting set to order a new computer... I confess, there are several fairly new titles I have every intention of picking up in the next few weeks
(glad I save birthday money for a while... 
)
@N3CROMANCER ,
and as I just stated in a different GB forum, a lot of it is that publishers are effectively using consumers as advance Beta testers.... Pretty sleazy, IMO. But, as long as you have over zealous fans willing to rush out in order to buy half-polished games.. the publishers will continue to take advantage.
