SO there was a big turbo sale that started yesterday at game stop. Buncha games on sale for $20. So of course, I went after work and raided the nearby one, even though i already have a backlog of games i am trying to play (Valkyrie Chronicles, Little Big Planet, Ratchet and Clank, etc etc etc)
Street Fighter 4, Silent Hill: Origins, Fear 2, all for only $20. Same with Madworld, and a few other games that seemed worthwhile.
So I asked for Silent Hill, and he hands me an open box from the shelf. I say “Hrm, are there any new ones?” he looks at me cockeyed and says “That is new” i look at the open box, with the bent up instruction manual inside and squint at him… and say “newwwwwww?” i think he finally understood me, because he went behind the counter and looked for what he called “Sealed-New” which apparently is different than just “New”.
ahem, now am i being crazy, or is this retarded. Gamestops definition of a new game is an open game, that they say hasnt been used. right. I think by the very definition of the term, once something has been opened, it isnt really 100% new any more.
So like, if gamestop was selling me a virgin, like a chick who had never had sex, their definition would be a chick who had had a cock (maybe 10) shoved inside her, but nobody came yet.
Gamestop, do you see what I am getting at here? You guys are ga’flooey.
But still that was a great sale.
Later,
