Not really. The manager at this one likes me too, but obviously not as much.BloodyThoughts said:

I haven't had any trouble with any of the ones I've been to recently. There are 5 in my area and I haven't a single horror story.
I like my Gamestop, well let me say I like the people who work there. They're all surprisingly normal and genuinly cool people. I never shop there because the prices are insane, but I stop in every once in a while to say hi and catch up.
I just moved from Townsend and I never paid $72 for a game here in MA, though I myself took to going over the border to avoid the tax, as all good citizens on the border should. The sales tax here is a little over six percent, which only adds up to like three more dollars on a sixty dollar game, right? Or am I just doing it wrong?Ph33nix said:
There are few good ones,and most are not in malls.There was an EBgames that I constantly went to and they were awesome,hooking me up with games,free strategy guides and other junk.But they got closed down so now I go to my local GameCrazy and rarely go to a GS.
Mine has a fantastic selection of even PC games, a rarity in most GS I think. They only have one tiny shelf for Gamecube but two walls full ofPS2 and Xbox. I might get a used Xbox from them soon so I can play the games i missed off of it when I was only with the 'cube and PS2.
i really like my local gamestops (there are 4 within 10 minutes of my house and another 3 within 20). the people are really nice. i have had quite a few fun, intelligent discussions about the industry as a whole with the staff there and i always trust their picks when i ask whether i should get one of two games.
yeah I live in groton and 72 is an exageration but the tax is over 6% now i thinkchronobreak said:
its a an extra 3 or 4 bucks so it adds up to someone who doesn't have a lot of cash to spend. the people at the tyngsburo gamestop were way better than the pheasant lane mall two.
Had this actually happen on a DS game. Hard to bullshit an answer when all of the game slots are already used up on a supposedly new game. Still, I'd rather do business with them over say...GameCrazy. They sold my pre-ordered and paid in full collector's copy of Wrath of the Lich King to one of the clerks friends, then refused to refund the money. Had to take that one to the corporate level...Fun fun.Julianking93 said:
Prepare for Blisters on your fingertips if you plan on getting the good ending. The bad ending lets you break the game on new game+ though...
That's pretty awesome. Now I want to ask the employees if they have older games.
The Gamespot that I go to is great, the staff is really friendly and it isn't anything at all like the ones described by the people that complain about the store.

I never trade in my games... I get crap for trading them in. 99% of the time I ebay my games off, it's a good deal for both the seller and the buyer. I asked the trade in value for Uncharted 1 and the response was 5GBP. I bought Uncharted 1 off ebay recently for 12GBP, and the preowned cost in store was 18GBP.
Thats not true about demand. the reason people buy off steam rather than gamestop is because gamestop can't price pc games to save their life, the answer isnt to get rid of the pc section it is to stop charging 40 euro for 4 year old games.Mcface said:
