I can't believe Gamestop! Trying to get me to sell my games for a freakkin dollar!

They offered me 80 cents apiece. ps2 games.

 

[Rub'Rum]

Yeah it's kindda raep. But it's not as bad as used music store who are just about ready to pay you to take THEIR music CDs away. Or they give you like 25 cents for yours. Even "rare" ones.

But yeah, one dollar is just sad for PS2 games, which are still played. I don't understand how they can have a significant amount of used games, who would give away their games for 80 cents.

At this point they buy NES games for a lot more than that. I have a bunch (and Coleco games too) and I wonder what they'd go for. I saw them trying to sell Final Fantasy 1 (NES) for like 60$. SNES Chrono Trigger for even more.

Sell your video games on ebay or cragislist. Its maybe 2x the effort but you get 10x as much for them.

Not only were their offers unfair, their reasoning was stupid as hell! Well, this box has a small scratch that's impossible to see without a high-power microscope. Hmm.. that's two dollars off of our offer. And this game was made two years ago, that's another five dollars. And your mother is more attractive than mine, thats another five dollars. Etc. etc. etc.

 

[Captain2]

thats why I'm in the money, my mothers nothing to write home about

 

[mythmonster2]

It took me a while to fix the D3D problem.

I'm hell of a sniper, though.

 

[Maniacal]

D3D problem?

 

[Godwynn]

D3D problem?

Yessir, apparently I needed Microsoft's .NET framework.

So two hours later I was poppin' heads!

Axis & Allies is a pretty decent rts

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. - Shadow of Chernobyl (installing now)

 

[Maniacal]

Purchased Deus Ex GOTY and Invisible War and Call of Cthulu off Steam ^_^

Also realizing there are not many games left on steam I am interested in that I do not already own... and some of those just aren't on sale enough (Or at all, MW2 >.>)

STALKER is pretty good.

The first firefight is hella hard though since you only have a pistol, there's 3 friendlies and 6-7 enemies - I played it like 6 times and died every one (On Novice level) until I snuck around to the left and stole someone's shotgun after shooting them from behind.

Then I eventually went past the garbage and there's this car junkyard with some army choppers and APCs too. Another group of bandits attacks - I'm hiding behind a large bus. They start using the car in front of me as cover and with a perfect grenade I wipe out two of them. I advance up to the first APC, shooting on the left side, I down two of them so I move to the right side, boom point blank shotgunned. Very fun!

[Genocidicbunny]
