Re: The next Wii shipment?
I'm working at Gamestop right now. Our shipments are very random and when we do get them we only get a handful. Apparently Best Buy and Target get a lot more than we do. For Gamestop, big Wii shipments won't be happening until the middle, mostly the end of March. Good luck. -
Re: Any Gears fans want in on the Beta?
So... why is GOW3 pre-order beta exclusive to Gamestop? I thought they were ruining the industry? As much as I would love to stroll into Gamestop and meet the too cool for school employee behind the desk to pick up a copy... [oh ya -- and then if I don't pre-order, he can offer me the $55 version the day after..] -
Re: January Games
I'm a loser and buy games when they hit $30 used at gamestop :) But if I wasn't cheap and bought games when they came out I'd be getting Darksiders. You know how cheap I am, I went up to Gamestop to get either Assassins Creed 2 or Modern Warefare 2, and I left with Fallout 3 because it was 20 dollars.... -
Re: Business Influence on Game Development?
In the US there's Gamestop and that's it, all their competitors were purchased or went out of business. It's starting to look like Blockbuster, the video rental juggernaut that went bankrupt and are now sad empty places selling their entire stock and furniture. Digital sales account for 24% of overall game sales but I… -
Re: Sf4 Customized Arcade stick - Sakura / Makoto
If you want to go for padhack, it really depends how many buttons you want. 8bouttons will gove you issues with a 360 pad as a base, since the triggers are analog and require a special electric hack. But if you just go for 6buttons youll be fine. You might have better soldering results if yo use a gamestop pad tho. Regular… -
Re: Sony to disallow resell or renting of PlayStation games after initially supporting it
Now you are being silly, the examples is about selling a used product that you bought, there is no difference between those examples, the only difference is that Gamestop has got up and made it easy for people to do it. I don't really see why you are so against seeing its the same thing, except maybe because of a dislike… -
Re: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Finally got my hands on a game informer and read the story (I didn't read in scans because I respect the exclusivity, as lame as that may be). SOOOO stoked for this now. Saw GT Noonan's sphere centurion in the sound vid, stoked about fighting those again. Also, I wanted to give props to Gamestop. Normally I hate everything… -
Re: Piracy...
Indeed. I mean there is a potential for Microsoft and Sony as well as all major publishers just to say fuck you GameStop and start selling their digital versions on xblive, psn and steam at a reduced price while still generating similar profit margins off each sale, maybe even better. But they can't do that. GameStop,… -
Re: Microsoft Creative Director on Always Online: 'Deal With It'
It would be interesting to see actual numbers about that. Somehow I doubt that anyone willing to play a brand new game for 8 hours in one sitting is really going to go back to Gamestop the next day and get a mere 20 bucks out of the original 60... I mean, do people really do that ? Sometimes I wonder where the used… -
Re: RAGE
This is pretty cool, neat little incentive to keep people from buying used. I'd love to see how this works out for them, if its successful maybe we'll see more of it in the future. Especially with mostly single player games everyone except for gamestop is probably losing tons of money from used sales. This seems like a…
