    Thats so bad, someone who is actually trying to copy someone else it makes no sense.

    If he wanted to get a point across how gamestop are bad to there employees and customers he could have done it normally.

    His slurred nerd voice irritates me way too much. Also, as mentioned, his shameless and poor yahtzee imitation increases the aggravation.

    Didn't last til the end +1

    Good point about direct trade being the best value, I really wish more people could realise this and stop getting shafted by game stores.

    Just about made it through to the end, but won't be checking out the rest due to the point already mentioned above...

    I'm sure there's important points worth raising about GamesStop's practises, but I can't get past the slurred, indistinct voice & Zero Punctuation-that-isn't. Does anyone actually shop at Gamestop here anyway?

    Bought my xbox 360 elite there at the time as it was the best deal going when they were compared to the offers at game/smyths/HMV.

    No huge loyalty to any particular brand of store for me: my games are usually purchased online now due to the savings Vs bricks and mortar stores for new titles.


    He made some good points, the ones that you could actually understand and vaguely sounded like they were spoken in English....

    I think you did it..

    Annoying voice but I agree with alot of what he said. When working in Xtra Vision I was strict on what we took in but if it looked relatively unscratched then we took it in. Never tested anything. Not viable.

    I mean if I was in on my own and some guy came in with 5 games, what do I do? Tell everyone that wants a DVD to shoot the breeze for 10 minutes while I check all these games?

    I have found gamestop second hand prices more expensive alright. That Rogue Galaxy example for instance.

    Seeing as nobody accused you of doing it, i find your indignation suspect.
    very suspect.
