Not sure if this is the best spot for this or not.

I see a major lawsuit in their future.

Next time you talk to Gamestop on the phone, ask if they have any copies of Battletoads.

This is the kicker... "now they’ve gone and given OnLive far more marketing than that silly coupon ever would have." - some people just don't think things through do they.

Isn't game stop run by the same company behind Block Buster Video?


I mean that alone would make me not want to shop at that store.


P.S if you ever need DVD cases and CD jewels, Look in the back of a blockbuster video trash container..... thousands and thousands they throw away in trash bags!

I grabbed two bags and three years later still haven't used them all.

Yeah, I saw this somewhere else too. Pretty dick move on their part, and I wouldn't be surprised if they end up getting sued over it (and losing)...hell, I'd actually be surprised if they don't get sued over it.

I hadn't realized Gamestop bought Impulse. :( Damn, I guess I am sort of giving them money...kinda...I have a few games on there that aren't available on Steam. I have been avoiding Gamestop as much as I can (read: I haven't given them a dime in over 3 years), and knowing this, I will be avoiding Impulse too for future purchases. ..damn shame too; I hate to penalize a company for being purchased by idiots, but, well...
