I get "lol Gamestop" is a running joke but the stores really aren't that bad. Their employees seem to genuinely work hard and deal with a lot of BS. Them trying to shill stuff and their high prices is on corporate, not the employee

What I'm saying is I generally always have a pleasurable experience and treat the employee with some common courtesy. I don't get why people march into a place with low expectations and a poo poo attitude and take something they read online out on the employee. You get what you put in I guess :shrug:

Yeah, most of the ones I've been to have been pretty good too. The last time I went to one to do one of their Trade X Get Game Free deals they had just stopped accepting Vita games but the website still advertised Vita games they would accept so the cashier spent like 10 minutes figuring out the cumulative trade-in values of said Vita games so I could get that deal done. Maybe it's because I'm in Canada with EB Games (GameStop owns the brand) but I've been to a dozen stores and only 1 in all these years would I even call remotely bad.

The Gamestops in the US are quite a bit worse than EB games from my experience (been to them in Bellingham, Seattle, LA, SF, Vegas etc). But EB still tried to pull that circle of life bs on me last time I was in. Just gotta be firm.

Speaking of Gamestop, since my PS4 was randomly ejecting discs, chugging on things and sounded like a jet engine even after a fan cleaning, I took advantage of a few deals they had for traded in the PS4 that may have been on the verge of death.

Long story short I traded an OG PS4 + two junk games for a PS4 slim (CoD bundle) for a final price of 41 bucks. Once I sell the sealed CoD game It'll end up being even cheaper, but one thing bugs me.

The outside of the PS4 box promised a download voucher code for CoD4 remastered. I didn't find anything inside of the PS4 so is it safe to assume it's inside of the sealed copy of CoD: Infinite Warfare?

I'm not 100% sure on how the console bundle works but the physical version of COD IW that comes with COD4 Remastered has COD4 built into the game so you HAVE to keep IW in order to play it. Does the box call it the Legacy edition or something along those lines? Because that's the case.

So they are going to divide the multiplayer base like crazy by having most maps behind a huge paywall? Sounds like an awesome idea.

The season pass is just microtransaction loot boxes, XP boosters, some new characters, and "early VIP access" to new content. And they're charging $40 USD for it.

I'd joke about a season pass costing more than the game but I'm pretty sure that exists already.

Who's currently giving the best trade-in deal on OG PS4's? I'm probably going to begrudgingly pull the trigger on a Pro by trading in one of my current PS4's and probably 3 or 4 games I don't play anymore. Is GameStop still the only place worthwhile?

This is getting ridiculous. The game's a huge success, 45,000 concurrent players on Steam today (no PS4 stats of course). Like I get that people who suck at playing against real people would rather play soulsbourne/nioh but give it some credit. It's a good, deep game and the FH thread gets more posts per hour than this one.

Also the DLC policy is really good. You get everything for free if you just play. Stop with the Ubi hate boner already.

I'll get For Honor later this year. I liked it but I'm not paying 60€ for it when I still have to buy Nioh, Yakuza 0 and some others. I'm sure GAME will have it on sale in a few months for like 30.

Ps4 version of modern warfare is a separate download code included within the box of infinite warfare. Strangely enough the xbone version of it is included on the disc so it can be resold.

The main problem I have with Ubisoft, apart from them nuking their own sequels and games not meeting hype set etc, is generally there games are just aggressively mediocre.

AC:Syndicate is worth your time, it's legit good. Also the original Rayman isn't so much a 'timeless classic' as an exercise in self-harm considering how hard it gets.
