They don't sell graphics cards or any sort of PC upgrades. I can't buy proper mice there or non-poo poo keyboards. No internal or external hard drives can be purchased, I can't buy routers or LAN devices. They don't sell PC games either.

I can buy a shitload of crappy laptops, tablets, and refurbished and new Xbox ones though.


I asked about the 360 and they didn't even offer that.

What is this store good for if I can't help me get my PC game on? Seriously Microsoft used to be all about PC gaming, what happened?

I thought about that, but it's right next to the Lego Store and the food court is right underneath it. Is it worth sacrificing what little good is in this world in order to take out just a small fraction of a greater evil?

the food court is evil too, and the legos will just melt down into one giant awesome lego

i want windows that use exotic physics such that i can turn the actual window panel on and off, none of this hinge bullshit

hey, scientists, hurry up and figure out how to manipulate gravity, or scale up the casmir effect, or open a portal to a hell dimension, whatever it takes

for the next doom game microsoft should do up their store like it's been invaded/corrupted by hell demons, complete with employees that lurch around and try to eat your succulent flesh

they'd probably increase foot traffic because everybody loves zombies, rite‽
