Trufax are true. Do not lie.
Welcome to GameSHOP.
See the H, Jkid?
But meh.
I haven't ever been to gamestop, but from everything I've heard, this video seems to be everything it is.
Shitty Deals, Annoying, RetardsSellingDemGaims, etc.

We all know what it's parodying.

You sure?
What if it's parodying VideoShop?
I hate GameStop, but I'd rather give them my money than Wal*Mart or some other store that just sells video games as something else to sell because at least at GS they seem to at care about games. Even if their customer service and sales policies are awful. The sad thing is that there usually isn't another option. Retro game stores usually don't stock new copies of new games and anyone that does has mostly been bought out or forced out of business by GS at this point.

That's why I use the internet. A much wider selection and usually without the bullshit. Though, there is a Play and Trade near me as well which is pretty awesome.
Is it ironic that i've actually seen this whole thing happen one time in Games(h)top.
I know it's true, I kinda wish Gamestop would go back to being the kind and caring people, instead of the forcingshitdownyourthroat variety.
That's why i miss FuncoLand so damn much. Play N' Trade service with GameStop stocks combined. Greatest VG Store ever recorded in history. I lost so much faith in general stores that i would pirate even the POOREST game publisher. The Internet doesnt matter since physical copies become damaged or have low resell at other stores anyways. *Sigh*. Will it ever return?

I've never heard of that place...I feel bad for ya man. It's a shame to see something so great go away.
Try to contain yourself as i describe FuncoLand. You walk through the front entrance. You turn your head right a plethora of Sega console games; Genesis, Dreamcast, Saturn, CD. Turn your head left: PSX and N64 Galore, even some SNES games NES, Atari, etc. Look forward and see Gamecube, PS2 and Xbox. Great employees and great return policies. God i miss that store.
Like the video implies, GameStop USED to be like that too. But not anymore.
The local store here was called Rhino Games. They offered great trade-in value, which I still have mixed fellings about since I gave up a lot of my Genesis, N64, and GBC games but got some great newerish ones because of it. They had a few imports too, like Japanese Zelda CDs and a few DBZ games that weren't out here yet.
But then GameStop bought them out. >.>

It USED to be like that because they didnt have any real policies set up and just used the store they bought out policies.
Wow.. your country is screwed up. :3

Wow.. you're a dick.
*slapped*
The GameStop near me isn't so bad, the ones in the Mall are. The Mall GameStops are always asking for e-mails and phone numbers. It's friggin annoying. Though the one near me, the employees are nice, etc. etc. Though the Trade-in deals for any GameStop suck; depending on the game.
my GS isn't really all that bad. Since I'm already signed up for all their bullshit, they don't bombard me about it. I get new games from Amazon anymore tho xD
