I love Primal Rage. Great game gimped by crap ports and censorship.
take them back to your home pizza rolls and rare gameplay and then torture them to death. then you can go back to the game stop, tell their boss "those boys skipped out,looks like you've got me" and he's like, "... sell me some games!!!!" and you impress him. you become the one true employee of the game stopI just changed jobs and there is a Gamestop next store. I am frequently going in and talking to the employees mid day when they're all bored. One time they had some sales tape on about the "circle of life" and it was going in depth on how to sell like some shitty Amway commercial or something. Sounded like a brainwashing tape.
One guy who works there is all about VR so we talk about that. I do feel a bit creepy being a mid-30s dude ... but that problem will only get worse with time.
why would anyone go there?

I'd agree but if it wasn't for Gamestop, I wouldn't have gotten a lot of Gamecube games for pennies on the dollar years ago for games that are worth way too fucking much now.
Back when I worked for that awful company I used to transfer rare games I was looking for into the store to buy for myself. Best deal ever was getting Ninja Five-0 for under $5.
Want to know how to alleviate circle of life issues? Stop taking trades, and doing resales. GS near me is a glorified toy store. Lots of action figures, hoodies, toys. Not very many games. Seems to be going new stock/pre-orders only. Good. Pre owned should be an online only thing. Leave it for Ebay/wherever else. Save your brick and mortar shops the hassle of gouging people. The risk of taking something broken. And the headache of being overrun with sports games.
It's basically like she's a captive audience for all the young guys to come in there and talk about their gaming conquests in hopes of getting their dick wet. Kind of funny to watch in a way.
imagine how i feel strutting around as Morrigan every halloween
You should totally work at a Gamestop.
It because theyre run by investors.
"Circle of Life" is nothing new. They were pushing that shit back when I worked there. They were shitty metrics then and they're shitty metrics now.
