Gamestop

Gamestop has pissed me off for the 2nd time…

The first time was when Halo 2 first came out and they give me my special edition with no game in it. I walk home to realize theres no disc and walk back. They tell me I must have stolen it adn I have to argue for about an hour before they check their inventory and find the disc.

Today I decide to pick up Vice City Stories after I sold a few old DVDs and a few games, I go to the counter, give him my ID. I'm 17 and I'm used to having to show it when I buy my games, he tells me he can't sell it since I'm not 18. I look at him for a minute or two, then tell him I can buy it. He calls his manager and he tells me that they have a new policy that you have to be 18 to buy an M rated game from GameStop and EB Games. 17 is apparently the "suggested" age. I guess Gamestop knows more about controlling game sales than a board that rates hundreds of games yearly. This is just really annoying. I atleast picked up my special edition of FFXII…

I'm about to make my pumpkin, I either want to make it like the CSS icon or something else, I just want something different.

Yeah, but the one where I live is in a different store, and they act tottaly different, much better.

they are the same store, if they act different its the fact that different people work there.

Yeah, usually they're not a hassle at this one since I live literally 2 minutes away. This guy hasn't been working there very long, I know all of the other employees

EB Games and Gamestop are both sorry excuses for gaming stores. There are so many things wrong with those travesties of stores that I'm not going to bother listing them here, but all I know is that I'll never buy anything from them.
