Top 10 Things I Will Not Miss Working At Game$top
by LoneWolf on May.08, 2012, under Justified Rants, The Real Truth You Should Know, Transmissions of My Life
10. GameStop TV starring: Captain Redbeard, Assclown Tool-boy and Horseface Bitch
9. PowerUp Rewards abbreviated to PUR and pronounced as ‘purr’.
8. The ASSumptive approach to selling the above at 100% Digital instead of asking the customer what THEIR preference is.
7. Corporate over-hyping games prior to release and when the game tanks after launch the customer gets mad at us for forcing the pre-order.
6. Parents who frown when I ask them if it’s okay that their child wants and M-rated game, buy it because their brats control them, and then complain to me after they see their kids playing the game they agreed to buy them.
5. Customers who cannot read the frakking return policy (especially those idiot parents noted above) on the back of the receipt and expect you to break the rules because of their stupidity.
4. Corporate stealing from RedBox by not having a stricter trade in policy when a customer comes in with a stack of caseless games with the RedBox sticker on them and wants to trade them in for cash.
3. Corporate asking you to shove MADDEN and CoD preorders down customers throats when the damn game is 6 months from release.
2. Those MADDEN and CoD fanboys who do the pre-order, praising the game even though it hasn’t been released yet. Then they freak out when something new is introduced and but buy it anyway. A week after release they complain that the game is still the same.
1. Dealing with the manager who currently runs the store at the Woodfield Mall. He’s an ABRASIVE asshat.

Well said. I’m am a bit tired of how bad videogamer prejudice is and how badly videogamers and videogames are portrayed in tv shows and movies. Lucky for me, my peers are gamers too and I have never really had to defend videogames that often unless it’s a parent who gets on my nerves preaching from their high horse but just don’t have a clue. Thanks to TheDanielSuperShow.

You mean this is not going to be DLC to pay for, or saved for the Ultimate MvC 3 Uber Edition to be released 6 months later?
