I work for a video game company (I'm sure you can guess it) and this is becoming a consistent problem. People bringing in games for cash or store credit.
We have standard policies in place but without proof we cannot turn someone away until our Loss prevention department gives us the go ahead.
It unfortunately takes quite a lot of trades for the system to trigger expected fraud and this has to be driving Red Box crazy. I can only assume they are making more money off of ...

They are currently running a promotion of UP TO 1/2 off if you trade any system. The PS3 will get you the most though. After that it the values decrease. They are also doing their 30/30 promotion. Guaranteed $30 in trade credit OR 30% EXTRA BEFORE bonus toward 30 upcoming titles. There are 4 Wii U titles on the list.

my gut tells me Nintendo land will be bundled with every system. Nintendo Land is to the Wii U what Wii sports was to the Wii.

Darksiders was the one who originally moved its launch back to spend more time on quality assurance. Personally, there hasn't been much I purchased this summer
(except for Lolli pop and DLC) so I had extra cased stash to pick up both titles.
The problem is...making enough time to play em both.

I work in retail and I cannot tell you how many people ask us "when is that new controller coming out for the wii?" The design of the system which looks similar to the wii is also a problem. I have faith people eventually put 2 and 2 together but right now nintendo needs to put some major education into its marketing.

I'm rooting for this company. Too much doom, gloom and negativity surrounding the industry these days. Darksiders II, Metro and the South Park RPG are all on my reserve list. If they deliver quality products, I will deliver the $$$.

--Those who have (played) “Darksiders” will unlock the Pauldron of the Hoursemen in “Darksiders II”. This is a level 5 legendary armor piece that boosts all of Death’s stats as well as his critical damage.
--Gamers who completed “(Darksiders)” on any difficulty will also earn a level 1 legendary scythe called the Chaos Fang which will boost Death’s damage and critical damage.
***On my way to purchase the first one again!***

Completely agree. "The nerve of someone comparing my game to one of the greatest franchises of all time!"

On another note...two weeks until Darksiders and Sleeping dogs, finally the drought ends!

I always depend on the first commenter to give a valid post. Thanks for not being a d-bag and letting us waste our time!

Until they fix their "customer service" issues, their decline will continue. These executives continue to ignore the elephant in the room. When you fire good people who were salaried and replace them with some minimum wage person who doesn't have any commitment to the company and customer you will set yourself up for disaster every time time.
Best Buy is an example of some of the most horrid experiences revolving around people who know nothing about the products and sim...

Didn't u just do the same thing you criticized the author of doing? Bashing then praising the game? O'VEY

Article is wrong. The sale is also at the STORES aswell. They are also doing a promotion called 'GameStock.' A play on "Woodstock."
Anyway, in addition to certain games being marked down you get these game tickets you can redeem online and you are guaranteed to when something at the website. You get a ticket for ANY transaction you do in the store whether it be buy or trade.

HA! bubbles for you! In all seriousness I thought the series was actually finished and they just cut the episodes to come out each month. I don't understand what is taking so long and the lack of communication is simply inexcusable in a world where everyone knows silence/ignoring your customers can kill your brand.
I hope someone from telltale takes notice this is not the way to conduct business.

I do agree its an article that does give some good advice, however I have to disagree with "Charging for PSN." I'm not against the concept and if it means better security then thats fine. But it appears Sony has a different model and especially a different "culture" when it comes to 'Pay to play.'
It seems they are heavily focused on incorporating PS+ members and will use this model as a way to generate funds. Also if they go to a pay model, you would a...

I think some people subconsciously have a issue with seeing a pretty girl go through so much pain that is typically reserved for male characters.

The spoiler is only for episode 1. Go ahead and watch.

I hope its a success, (if its well earned). But with Starhawk marching quietly out the gate, I feel for Sonys/SOE MMO's sometimes.

Long live the PHATTTTY! I'm never getting rid of my super schmexy glossy 60GB.

Man, have we become such an "gotta complain" about everything society. Seriously, people are offended about this?!?!
One should be more offended on the games they are offering 75% off on....now that list is offensive.

I feel people lack a basic quality now a days. PATIENCE. If you decide to be an early adopter realize YOU will have to wait for a substantial library to be built and supported by the community. To write a system off 3 months after its US debut is absurd.
