Subject: Gamestop exclusive controler....

hello

So when the H3ODST "limited Edition" with the exclusive controler was announced, i was eager to go on down to best buy and reserve this - until i found out it was gamestop only...
The problem is I HATE GAMESTOP...but want that controler, this is the type of hatred where i do not want to give them any of my money whatsoever..
what should i do, swallow my pride and get it at gamestop, or stick up my middle finger at gamestop and go on without the controler?

just get what you want, if you really want the controller go to gamestop and preorder. but if it really isn't that important to have the controller get it from best buy.

Hmm, gamestop does sometimes give people bad experiences....But dude, if you really love halo you might as well get it there. I mean You don't have to but I would.

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

In Canada, we mostly have EB Games. I love those stores. I went to a Gamestop once, the staff was stalking me. I didn't even have money, it was weird.

i hate gamestop too, they always want to rip people off. Forget the controller man, who cares about that. The Halo 3 Helmet is a better collectors item. Just Stick two Middle fingers up at gamestop

You're a moron for hating a company as a whole, Gamestop prices every new game the same as everywhere else. Microsoft sets prices, so you won't see a difference until after the game is released and no longer "new".

Buy it at Gamestop, you get the $60 game and $60 Controller (yes, $60 for the controller, ALL Special Edition controllers are $60, always,) for a mere $100. $20 off.

Ok... then Sokhead, go into the Gamestop, with your best possible manner, once you get your game and your controller, flip them off like they meant it.

all the limited editions have the controller.

Horrible, horrible staff.
You need an ID to buy M rated games from there.
Plus, their used games have tons of scratches on them

hows it their fault the used games have scratches on them? at least gamestop tests them to see if they work.

They never do.
I bought a Tekken game from there and it froze on me because there were scratches on it.

Boohoo, you need an ID to buy M rated games so that the 10 year old can't go up to the counter and buy Grand Theft Auto.

I've bought used games from them, and they were perfectly fine. i don't know what the deal with Gamestop is.

  • 08.15.2009 10:14 AM PDT

Good thing you aren't going to pre-order it from there, they'll just put down Modern Warfare 2 down as your pre-order.

Great Scott!
