I hate Gamestop! Luckily they are closing down stores all across the US.

SnakePlissken4463d ago

Same here, close them ALL down!!!

Ares84HU4463d ago

Never mind that people are losing their jobs right?? You guys just want to see GameStop burn.

Nice....very nice/s

Fylus4463d ago

People all across the world lose jobs at some point. It's F'd up, sure, but It's practically natural. I hate that these people are going to lose their jobs, but that's not gunna stop me from hating Gamestop.

ConstipatedGorilla4463d ago

Whether you like Gamestop or not (which I do not), it's not good for the economy when stores close down and people lose jobs.

*Drives 5 minutes to local Gamestop
*Buys a new copy of game from friendly clerk
*Gets reward points
*Doesn't get coerced by mythical Gamestop robot that forces you to sell your games at Gamestop, that people seem to think exists
*Drives 5 minutes back
*Puts game in drive
*Plays game

MY local Gamestop > Ordering online

Unless Amazon or Ebay have an ASTRONOMICAL deal, I would rather support local jobs and get my copy immediately. Sorry, people with a personal vendetta against Gamestop for their robots and personal experiences with individual rude or uneducated employees; I don't have those issues at my local gamestop.

FrankDrebin4463d ago

Amazon Rules! That's where I get most of my games for $10 less than the other places along with DLC content for free.

@SilentNegotiator

It isn't JUST about tools behind the desk, it isn't JUST about their bullshit deals, it isn't JUST about shady handling of new/used games and their included bonuses, and it isn't JUST about being forced to make a decision based n pre-order deals. It's their business model as a whole, and I don't support them for any of those reasons. When they moved in and shut down MY local mom and pop game store, that was the icing. I'm not supporting local jobs for the hell of it, when I'm really supporting a filthy corporation.

Ares84HU4463d ago

Amazon and ebay are nice choices but I like to walk into stores sometimes and just pick whatever out....browse a bit maybe.

At that, you can't beat GameStop. Though some clerks can be pretty rude and pushy but understand that being pushy and trying to sell games to you is their job and they are forced and pressured to do that.

ThanatosDMC4463d ago

I would suggest newegg too. No tax and almost next day shipping.

Hey Paul, shouldn't you be selling used lawnmowers and old jewelry? Oops, sorry, that's probably the big announcement for next year. Hope I didn't spoil it.

n4gisatroll4464d ago

I kind of hope gamestop does go away. Maybe a new store will take its place and not be as big of jerks.

MySwordIsHeavenly4464d ago

Your savior's name is Disc Replay.

MySwordIsHeavenly4464d ago

No, but Disc Replay can. ;)

It's a midwestern thing right now, but it's growing.

$54.99 for a used game? Ha!
Try $42.99 for that same game that just came out last week...AND it's guaranteed to work because they buff out every single disc!

GameStops have been closing around here.

n4gisatroll4464d ago

Hmm, too bad I moved out of Cleveland to the west coast. I can only hope disc replay comes out to cali soon.

MySwordIsHeavenly4464d ago

Well, that's up to someone in Cali. It's independently owned and operated. The guy who created Disc Replay hated that corporate BS that GameStop deals with. He'll literally let someone open a store anywhere in the US, if that person can run a business. I wish I had the money to open one, instead of just working there. Lol.

Capes (PC) Review - CGMagazine

Capes is a good enough game, but lacks the necessary distinction to go up, up and away.

Senua’s Saga: Hellblade II Review | Resident entertainment

The first game in this series, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice was one of my favourite games that I had on the PS4. It wasn’t a game that I would say was ever really that popular and I remember finding it on sale long after launch and giving it a go because the graphics looked nice. The game was probably one of the few in that generation that surprised me

Hellblade 2 Is An Unrivaled Spectacle, But The Gameplay Neglection Bothers Me

Ninja Theory outdid itself in Hellblade 2 with the photorealistic visuals and the unreal audio design, but why was the gameplay neglected?

Its a perfect game for Gamepass, i think this is what MS wanted from it to be. IMO spring 2025 PS5/Switch 2 release maybe sooner

Flawlessmic35m ago

I finished it and I'll start by saying the graphics are amazing!!!!! and I experienced and noticed absolutely zero bugs and ran into no issues with the game so it's highly polished.

In saying that, that's where my compliments end, I slugged my way through this game, thank god it was short.

The most on rails game I've ever played, didn't care for the story or the characters outside of the story for the first giant which I did like. For a game like this story and characters should've been everything and it just didn't hit, I didn't care at all just wanted to finish the game and experience the visuals, that's the only reason I persisted.

Puzzles were absolutely lame an amounted to either trying to find shapes or using land shifting bubbles, all of which were piss easy.

The fights are cool at first and look brutal but again very simple.

Basically no environment interaction besides lighting torches

Checking my last achievement only like 6% of players have finished the game which says a lot considering the length of it. I can't imagine a whole lot of people are playing this either.

Don't understand the higher reviews for this, outside of visuals the game isn't great if any anything it was a slog to get the 7 hrs it's took me.

EternalTitan33m ago

What gameplay?
Hellblade 2 barely has any gameplay.
