Leave Gamestop Alone!

[KeithHybrid]

I'm totally serious!

But seriously: I guesstimate that anywhere from 1-3 times a month, we get a "I HAET GAEMSTPO" thread. By now, it's getting old and annoying, so let's find something else to bitch about, shall we?

Besides, I've never had a bad experience at my local Gamestop: all the folks there know me, they've all been very helpful, and pretty much the only time I go elsewhere is when they don't have something I'm looking for in stock, but another store has it.

Wow, you sound like that Britney dude on Youtube.

[DumbassDude]

I haven't seen many threads bitching about it.

Like I said, we get them about 1-3 times a month. The flow of such threads has been pretty low, lately, but they always pop up sooner or later.

Gamestop will be dead in about four years, so who cares? Let's make fun of them while they're still kicking.

I personally think gamestop should stop sucking before people can stop bitching about it. I actually smile every time I see a anti-gamestop thread.

No they won't, Gamestop still is one of the bigger players in the VG sales department.

Yeah, I think gamestop will be here for a long time. As long as games keep coming out, gamestop will be the best place to get them.

I have never really been let down when buying a game I wanted at gamestop. Quality is another issue though.

You don't think that DLC and Digital distribution is going to slowly kill off these brick and mortar shops?

I went in to check about that new punch out game for the Wii around 6:30, and they closed

Why would they be dead? Digitally released content?

I'm not so sure. It could happen, but I don't think it will. It's a long ways away if it ever does happen. It also seems a lot less safe.

I have a strange urge to suck your genitals. And I don't say that often over the internet.

But we all know people don't jump off bandwagons so easily. If we just take the precautions to leave this subject alone, they'll finally run themselves over a cliff, and it'll all be a thing of the past.

These days? No. The new guys actually stay, and become one of us. All behind our backs of course. I'd name a few users, but I'm not the discriminatory type.

No, since first of all, that won't happen in four years, second of all, it'll kill of gaming culture as a whole, and people would notice that before it's too late.

Plenty of people will still want hard copies, hence why CDs are still popular. Digital distribution isn't that big from what I can tell.
