I'm just wondering what people's stances are on lending games to mates. It comes from an issue with my neighbour today...I've been lending him some 360 games, and today he asked for Dead Space, and I said after I finish it, but it made me uncomfortable, but I don't wanna be mean-spirited. I asked him if he'd finished the Rainbow Six Vegas 1 game that I'd lent him, and he said he thinks he lent it to a friend. WTF!!!?!? So I'd like to post this thread in the name of research. Are you a lender, or an obsessive hoarder of games like me? Is it mean to not lend your games...or not..? |

I'm lucky that none of my mates have also lent away games I lent them, so that's pretty good. The onlt major problem I had was when I lent a mate of mine an orginal xbox contoler and never got it back, and that was 4 years ago. But kept his copy of nba 2k5 so it all worked itself out I guess. |

None of my mates have a 360 cause their too lazy to get jobs so I'm right, but either way im a hoarder as well, so i never lend people my stuff, unless i know their trustworthy. |

Lending something out that isn't yours just isn't on. That neighbour of yours is stupid. |

I don't lend any of my games to my mates even if I'm not playing it because I don't want to risk them scratching the disc. |

Amen, my friend. Yeah - the more replies I am seeing, the less I am feeling like a tightwad. Its a relief to see others are iffy about lending their beloved games. |

well the main reason for me, is i'd probly have to literally give them a black eye and a broken jaw, before they gave me the money to replace it if they broke it. |

I've had a long history of lending games to mates, and an equally long history of never getting them back; it seems borrowing a game off me is the ideal way of securing some reason to leave the state or even better the country. |

I very very rarely lend my games to my brother, or my best mates who are practically brothers. No one else. And lending out something that you've borrowed off someone else is complete bullshit. How the hell do people think that's an ok thing to do? |

You definately can't lend something to a friend if you borrowed it. My mates are not gamers so I dont have to worry about it. |

I only lend games that i can handle not getting back. Halo 1 2 and 3, Bioshock, and a few others will never leave my house. |

none of my mates have 360s, or are big gamers On occasion when i'm away overseas I will lend the entire 360, plus whatever recent games are out to a specific mate who is a bit of a gamer (not enough to buy his own console though - bah!). Last time I did that, he had Halo3 & GoW at the same time. When I got back in country and went round, both discs were out of their cases, data-side down on a wooden coffee table. Now I no longer lend the console to anyone either. He doesn't know this yet. |

I only know a couple of people with 360s. And I only lend my games to them because I know they will replace them if they get wrecked. |
