Frankly, I can't imagine how they've survived this long.

Everytime i'd go in there to purchase a game or controller, i'm bombarded with a million questions. I just want to buy this game and that's it.

No need to pre-order games. Ive never seen a shortage in any game that i buy on release day.

That is some ole bull****.

They have always had some bull**** practices. They've opened up new copies of games for years.

There was a time i bought all my games at gamestop and spent quite a bit of time in their stores. I havent stepped foot in a gamestop in years. It is just too easy to buy my games at K-Mart (great deals there) or Wal-Mart. No one bugs me with 50 questions or tries to get me to buy 15 other games that i dont wont.
I never understood the practice of pre ordering games. You want me to go ahead and give you $60 bucks a month before a game comes out when on the day it comes out i can simply walk into any store and buy it?
I think i will keep the $60 in my savings account and let it draw interest. Why would i give anyone money early when i can wait till release day and buy it???
Gamestop must be ran by a bunch of idiots as they have lost a ton of customers.

I have never liked GameStop for the fact that they open all their games. Just makes me feel like I'm buying a used game for full price.

Not to mention they give you pennies for your used games and usually sell them for like $10 cheaper than the new retail goes for....

I don't like gamestop and their practices. That's why I shop at Best Buy.


Do you really care where I sent this from?

Is Best Buy really that much better? They try to sell people $50 HDMI cables when they know damn well it's the exact dame as a $3 cable.

I'm starting to sound like a GS apologist, but in their defense you only have to put $5 down.

I get all my games from Amazon btw.
