Re: That Anti-GameStop Video That's Been Floating Around

Gamestop has given me the wrong disc twice in person, a scratched cd that I refused to accept, and a 'new' MS Flight Simulator that was missing the CDs. I used to be okay with getting 'new' games that had open cases, until I got a digipak case that was worn to hell.

If I choose to buy something from there, it has to be worth it (it is a used game after all) or it has to be a sealed new release.

I never reserve anything, especially after I was able to get my younger brother a copy of Lego Star Wars II on release day despite being asked if I had a reservation.

I NEVER trade games in.

You have to either be a ****ing idiot or a poor ****ing piece of **** to try and get money to turn around for another game that way. Your used, completed games are probably worth more sitting on your shelf than trading them in for $5-10 store credit.

My brother got $8 for his Sega Saturn and 1/2 a cent for Virtual Cop. I'd pay him $8 in an instant to be able to play the console port of Die Hard Arcade again.

Was this supposed to enlighten me?

This video is stupid.

If you want to get the most out of your games and consoles, then take the effort to sell them yourselves.

Technically, according to Gamestop policy you're not allowed to talk about store policy to anyone, especially not on the internet. And they explicity say internet in there too.

I'd imagine they not only got Youtube to remove it, the guy that made it has most likely been fired.

That's the response to them pulling the videos.

Not sure how long that'll be up...

Re: That Anti-GameStop Video That's Been Floating Around

Recently sold 4 sports games to gamestop and only got $5 out of it.

Think I was ripped off?

Unless they were all Madden games!

OH!

....

Yeah I think you got ripped.

the "manager murder" sounds like the thing that happened here, except plenty of these gamestops have security cameras. except maybe that one

I'm still waiting for the college-is-the-biggest-racket-of-all video.

It's called Accepted.

Magus-kun, I just bought a used game and preordered my game. Prepare to burst a blood vessel.

Re: That Anti-GameStop Video That's Been Floating Around

We've all given up on you long ago, Jamos.

Re: That Anti-GameStop Video That's Been Floating Around

It doesn't even ensure you will get the pre-order goodies either.

Well, first I do the splits over an egg and leap into an open watermelon.
