The ODST/MW2 war is taking over Gamestops now. Good thing I've preordered both games already!

I can't believe what i'm reading. Gamestop actually hires people like this? I say go back and tell him you want the problem fixed or call the manager. I'm all for Modern Warfare 2 and ODST, but not when the man forces the game down your throat.

I'd go back there and tell the manager and fire him. But I dont know how your nature is so. What you should do is when he is there get some friends and go back there and cancel it so if he doesnt cancel it, you get your money back and the preorder stands (free 8 dollars off) or your friends and you can video tape him freaking out because you want to cancel it which should amuse you

No, acnboy. Spartain Ken 15 is a lesser being. Much like the bacteria that lives in your shi­t.

My shi­t bacteria takes offense to that comparison.

Don't make me lel. You won't like me when I lel.

The guys at my local game stores are legends. They really listen to you, tell you what you want and are never reluctant to help you. They also give 10% off anything you preorder.

Typical Halo nerd. Move along.

Tell the manager he was pressuring you into getting a game you didn't want, then threatened to reserve a different game than originally intended. He should get in trouble, and you should get some compinsation, if you know what I mean....

Hunt him. Kill him.
Silence him, and beg for forgiveness. We are watching.

I accidentally clicked "Keep it"

Go back there demand him to change it and if he doesn't, get the manager. My gamestop guy was overzealous about ODST, guess i was in luck.

Goats R Us

That's horrible. Get this man fired. Complain and try to get a discount at the store.

  • 07.18.2009 4:48 PM PDT

Go in there and speak to his supervisor, tell him that he forced MW2 on you and you said no thanks Halo for me, and still he put MW2 on preorder, get him sacked the little nerd

haha well the people at my gamestop aren't that annoying to tell you to cancel one of your pre-orders. I dont like the people at my Gamestop they are kind of annoying and weird, but either way they dont cheat their customers. I would go with what most people are saying and go talk to their manager. He would most likely be forced to give you a discount or something, and if not, that asian dude would be in a hell lot of trouble.

  • 07.18.2009 4:57 PM PDT

I would go back to the store and say "Hey you put down the wrong game on the receipt." Person working: "O ya I figured if I did that you would comeback and preorder that other game. . . goes on about COD MW2."

Stops him in the middle of his Lame COD's great rant and says

"You Ignorant Panzy, WTF do you think you are doing working here? HUH? Get your Head out of your BLEEP BLOOP and do your job, I don't want to buy C**K of duddy 4 Midget Wanker!!! I want Halo 3: ODST!!! After listening to you BS I have a right mind to call the manager and tell him about your Negligance, Ignorance and stupidity. I should call the police and have them arrest you for scamming me, what you are doing is equivalent to me buying a plane ticket but then find out that its a boat ticket!!! Absolute stupidity. This rant would go on until the manager came in and heard the complaining.

I would go back to the store and say: "Listen buddy, I know Modern Warfare 2 is a much better buy than an overpriced expansion for people that bought Halo 3; however, if I want to be a stupid fanboy and kiss bungie's ass, then I WILL be a stupid fanboy and kiss Bungie's ass."

On a more serious note: It is your money to spend on whatever you want; therefore, you should go back to Gamestop and give him a piece of your mind.

Contact the manager. NOW.



That's probably the best thing to do.

No, Gamestop is not retarded, but that guy was.

If you want to hate on ODST, do it in the topics that already do it.

EDIT: Sorry if I come across as mean.

I'm not hating on ODST. Hell, I will probably buy the damn game anyway just because Bungie has yet to make a title that isn't top quality. Also, ODST is an incredible deal for anyone who doesn't own Halo 3.

So was mine. I came in with a Halo shirt on (without realizing it) and the first thing he guessed I was there for was to pre-order ODST.
