Why is my new video game being put in the case when I buy it like it's actually a used video game?

because it actually is used, and they let the employees take them home and play them. i used to work at EB games and it was great charging people full price for games i just brought home from playing :twisted:

we also had a shrink wrap machine in the back for extra deception

why do you think anyone cares that you work as a retail slave for a glorified nerd pawn shop?

i knew a girl that worked at a GameStop and she would tell me all about how DLC was awesome, even blatant idiot poo poo like what EA does. Like she got really heated about it I was loling so hard.

GameStop wouldn't let me buy GTA because it was rated M. Assholes. Had to get my dad in there and the employee was all trying to explain why it was rated M and my dad is just 'I don't care' waving his hand.


I wouldn't mind but they get all righteous about it and go 'it's ILLEGAL for me to sell you this!' when in reality there is no law governing selling M games to kids because the ESRB isn't a government body, retards.

We have to explain what all is in the game because most of the time, the parent has no clue what's in GTA. Pornographic content, drugs, lots of violence

I chuckle to myself every time I see the kids face after I explain to the parent what alls in the game

I mean don't get me wrong that's fine I'm not advocating just selling whatever to whoever but I hate when people get all like 'OH I have some small amount of power over you I WILL RUB IT IN YOUR FACE!' I saw his crestfallen expression when my dad didn't even care enough to let him explain. The joke was that I looked flustered when the employee told me I needed a parent not because I wouldn't be allowed to get the game, but because I just didn't like my parents and didn't want to talk to them any more than necessary. He thought he was gonna see a kid get denied but instead he got blue balled.

Just rubbed me the wrong way when he started telling me it was illegal to sell M games to a 15 year old.

i was actually pretty surprised there were straight-up boobs. i hadn't realized that americans were ok with that in video games these days

my question is, why is babbage's gone and gamestop still around when babbage's was the superior store?

It's not an important experience, I'm just telling you my GameStop experiences in the GameStop thread.

That GameStop girl was cute in a hipster/alt kind of way but she had no hips and no rear end and no boobs it was very disappointing all around once the clothes come off and that's kind of what GameStop feels like to me in a nutshell.
