Good day ladies and gentleman smile.gif

We are just trying to do a research on the gaming market in Malaysia so far.
With all the easy process and cheap deals that we could find online from sites like Play Asia and Super UFO (not to mention the many online seller in LYN), how many of us are still not buying the whole online shopping idea?
How many of us still prefer the thought of going to a physical shop like Gamer's Hideout and Playtime to shop for our games?
How many of us think that our gaming market has tremendous potential but lacks the mean and platform to survive?

Many are quite content with all the resources we are having now but some of us think that all this could be brought a step further. I mean we can do better than what we have here in Malaysia now, right? rolleyes.gif

Well, please feel free to help us with the survey. It is all part of the research on how to bring the gamers experience to a better level, here in Malaysia. While you are at it, maybe you could drop some comments on why you choose any of the answers. smile.gif Thanks guys!

rather viewing the games online, and then COD nearby my house....
download and store digitally on the harddisk has its risks (disk curropt)

I do a little bit of both.. buying online is ok I guess.. but honestly nothing beats going down at a store and choosing games to buy and finally buying it, given if the price is not that big difference.. haha.. plus no damage to the games.. (bought a few from PA, where the game box was broken and manual was ripped off..

with the exception of playtime, physical shops usually have ridiculous prices for games. so i usually buy from sellers here or from Play Asia.

I prefer online all the way. So far all the games that I bought online are in good condition whether it's a new one or second hand.

I'm sorry, but our general policy is that research surveys are not really allowed here.
