Then your store was breaking the rules and the DM should have been notified. At the three Gamestops for which I’ve worked, if you walked out of the store with a new copy of a game you didn’t pay for you were fired without question.

But that’s not what you’re saying. Maybe it started out that way, but now it has turned in to “Gamestop is terrible because of this policy.” I’m sorry you were waited on by a shitty Gamestop employee; those are out there. The majority of them, however, have absolutely zero intention of ripping you off.

Gamestop makes enough money that they don’t need to worry about the five extra dollars they’d make by occasionally swapping in a used copy for a new one.

You could try not being a dick to a guy for carrying out a policy he has exactly zero control over.

Complain enough and they’ll give you a small discount on a copy that’s been opened for display. Continue to complain and they’ll tell you that you’re free to take your business elsewhere. They’re not going to change the policy. They need display copies out, and they’d rather take a small hit from the incredibly small…

The only time customers were ever allowed to return new games were when they were defective, at which point they’d be shipped to a repair center. Once it was opened, it was yours and you could only exchange it for another copy of the same game. We did make an exception for GTAV though.

This is 100% false. GameStop does allow employees to check out games, but only used copies. The reason that you sometimes get a “new” copy that has been opened is because they have to have a display to put on the shelf and they can’t open themselves to theft by keeping the game inside the case. These “gutted” copies…

Thor has always been one of my favorite Marvel movies. Kenneth Branagh was an inspired choice to direct it.

Super off topic, but David Tennant is a god. Tenth Doctor for life.

Sigh. I was in a fraternity in college and had a genuinely wonderful experience, but it’s becoming harder and harder to actually defend these dicks.

Except it’s brilliant in Doctor Who. I like the Doctor having some character other than “he’s super quirky!”

A bit part in Old School?

352 hours? Psh...you haven’t REALLY started playing Destiny yet.

Destiny, a video game in which players travel the galaxy recreating the myth of Sisyphus.

BALLS, man! We just ran over a small bus!

You forgot his most important role: Frank, Rod Kimble’s stepfather in Hot Rod, whose heart condition inspires Rod to do a big ass jump so he can save Frank’s life and kick his ass to prove he’s a real man.

They had one fun pick – David Wilson – and his neck dissolved.

God, the lore of Destiny is amazing. It’s a shame they couldn’t incorporate more of it into the actual game, and I say that as someone who has put about 1000 hours into Destiny.

That seems to be the case. I’m on Windows 7, nothing yet. My brother is on 8.1, so I’ll check with him when he gets in to see if his computer is ready to update.

KFC double down. Boom.
