Subject: Is Gamestop Retarded? check ...

We mouth the vilest sacrament
And adhere to these tacit skirmishes
All for one day ideal and saffron-drenched
We ate each other's hearts out of serving dishes

gamestop near me is suck. yes, i just said it IS SUCK. They "cant do preoders for Halo 3: odst due to supply difficulties." but i think the -blam!- at the counter just saved spots for his friends.

I know!

Tell manager, get him fired, then get his job part-time <if you aleady have one> and then when he comes in to preorder something add the limited editon of ODST or Reach to it!
XD

Then on your last day <because you wouldnt get away probably without being fired> pre-order it for EVERYONE... somehow.

If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

If you have enough money for it, buy both. Still, you should tell the store manager anyway and see what will happen.

I was in 5th grade. I popped in the Halo CE disc into the massive, clunky first generation Microsoft Xbox, and wrapped my small hands around the controller that was almost too big for me. Little did I know what I was getting into.

10+ years later, I still look up to my childhood hero, Master Chief, while everyone talks about He Man and Spongebob haha

This calls for a falcon punch.

Besides that, OP, make your point valid. This is america. Wherever that asian clerk came from, he's got to understand that we do things differently here (presuming he wasn't born here).

We have a choice.

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

Gamestop IS retarded... They:

1: try to rip you off when you want to sell them something- they tried to buy my friend's new Xbox (perfect condition) for $17.... They just put a sticker saying "$150" on it right after....

2: Your MW2 incident....

3: Sell games in terrible condition at a terrible price- they sold me a skate game for $30 (skate 2 allready released) and the game was broken....

4: Dont know what they are talking about when a question is asked... Someone asked them what the difference between GOW2 collectors and regular was- it was on a shelf, they couldnt answer him by reading the box lol...

Also, a few of us were talking during matchmaking and Halo: Reach is definitely going to be, not a first person shooter, not a third person shooter, but a second person shooter. Bungie is going to revolutionize the way you watch other people play games.

Cancel the reservation, call the store and speak to a manager. That is awful customer service and deceitful at best. Demand that the reservation be removed (or you're literally wasting money) and demand an apology from the employee, if he's not fired. Inform the manager that there are plenty of other retailers out there and you plan on taking your business there. You'll get the reservation taken off and a nice apology, and may even stand to get some free stuff from them. Don't stand up to that type of behavior.

Hmmm, I don't know what to say...

Go back in that gamestop, and ask for the manager. This kind of stuff shouldn't happen in america. It's your money, and your game. Tell the manager that one of the employees purposefully put the wrong game down for your pre-order. Ask for your money back and if the manager is the one guy, threaten to go to a different store.

Sorry, I can't hear them over the sounds of Modern Warfare 3 on my Turtle Beaches.

Wow. I was thinking about getting a job at GameStop when I turn 16.

The GameStop I prefer to go to has nice people, so I'd listen to the customers over than expressing my opinion of a game. To me, none of them seen retarded.

When I reserved the Collector's Edition of ODST, the guy who rang me up didn't mention any Modern Warfare 2 garbage.

Too bad that happened to you.

Assuming that the OP isn't making this up just to get attention from the gullible forum goers.
