I have to agree with the whole pushy sales people there, i for one am pretty set & have no problem telling them no every time they ask but some people like the mother in the article just give in evetually its sad, my sister & my mom refuse to go into those stores because of those people, they would rather buy new then used simply because of those tactics which is the oposite of what gamestop wants. I for one am a happy & proud gamefly member & gamestop helped push me away from...
agree with the need of a spoiler alert. But f yea sir i agree with you, i had to pause the game for a whlie I just couldnt keep playing afterwards!
No horror movie ever has affected me the way a horror game does. I have become chocked up more during games than i have movies. During movies we tend to watch them, most people feel like they are living the game being in control or at least the illusion of being in control!
Im glad to hear that, im 28 & love gaming & have no signs of slowing down any time soon! In fact once my son comes of age (hes 3) im assuming ill probably game even more!
The arictle says the average gamer age is young, but google it the average gamer age is 37, how old do you have to be to consider 37 as "young" that might actually be the cutoff IMO lol
Ive "only" played 108 games :) i average 1 game per week or 4 a month. When you take into consideration a lot of games are like 4-5 hours now its not that far fetched. But i understand what you are saying & agree with you its not for everyone. But in my defense i do have a full time job, a wife, & a 3 year old son so im not exactly that guy who lives in his moms basement playing video games all day either lol
I for one would have no problem ordering games directly from developers & cutting out publishers all together thus saving the consumers & the people who make the games a boat load of money!
i wasnt aware of gamestop changing return policy? What did they do?
Ahhh makes me proud my work sells so many chainsaws!
It was inevtiable for me but eventually anyone who follows the buy used return for another used game or new game over & over & over are wasting your money. I went with gamefly over two years ago now & have had over $4500 (used game prices) worth of games shipped to me for only the $600 or so ive paid them. Think about that i would have spent OVER $4500 getting the games ive gotten from gamefly, make the switch man!
My defining moment was having a garage sale &...
things i learned while scanning this article....i prefer speadsheets to pie charts...that is all!
i want to get into the half life series & would hapily get day 1 a remake of the series.
probably true, but i do have to say i have only 1 friend on my ps3 friends list playing me3 But i have a crap load of people playing it on the 360, granted its a small sample size but i would be very interested to see how many copies are selling on each system. Hell i didnt even know anything about Mass Effect until i got my 360.
More proof the new game market benifits from the used game market. How many used game sales of me1 &/or me2 led to people buying new me3 at launch!
imagine how shitty it is to be an employee there this week, knowing regardless of how good of an employee you are or what you do there you most likey dont have a job there by weeks end! Man they should blow out all inventory for pennies on the dollar. Wish i was in the UK when that went down!
I want a damn patch for the citadel quest where you are tracking the hanar diplomat. Come on bioware let me intereact with the damn termials already! I played Dragon Age 2 & was very unhappy with the laziness involved please for the love of god patch your damn game!
a 5/10 is laughable. I have played almost every game that has come out in the last 2-3 years & have played some real crap games, Binary Domain however is one of the most underated games ive played this gen. I gave this game a solid 9 one of the better games ive played in a while!
I was excited until i saw the power up thing. My phat 40gb has been worying me this week the fans keep kicking into high gear when playing ME3 & it was 68f in my living room. For $25 i would go tonight to get a slim. I have a rewards card that ive never used & dont know anything about it, how hard is it to get 6500 points or whatever?
Cant help but think this is just the UK version of gamestop here in the US, Gamestop should be taking note of this! All the reasons listed in the article of why people hate Game is the same reasons people hate Gamestop!
from my understanding they arent going to close. Just "game" is going to close then next week or in a few weeks they will reopen with new employees under a new name. Not 100% sure about that but thats what ive been reading?!?
