Gamestop, this is not new, it is literally and technically USED! So don't sell them as NEW!!

This is something that really pisses me off, Gamestop assholes (not all of them but most) sell some games as new when they clearly been opened and played. See, games come shrink wrapped, trust me, I know, sometimes I spend like 5 minutes trying to open a game taking that plastic and sticker out of the way so I can have hours of fun. So, having that in mind, when I got Ghostbuster this christmas it was obviously payed as new, but when I opened the game I noticed there was no shrink wrap around it... and when I opened it even had finger prints on the disc. Clearly this was used. There is no other way to look at it, someone opened and played it, hence used. Let put here an interesting analogy here. Lets say this girl tells her boyfriend she is a Virigin. When they get down to business the first time he noticed it was a clean insertion, no blood, no nothing, ALL IN. And its clear she is not a virgin. Something happend there! She might say, oh I used a dildo, or an object, or someone elses hand... she is not a virign anymore. So putting it on the Gamestop perspective is like this. They sell used games, most of them are practically new since many kids play it on the first week and return it for another, which is a bad move, cause they could use a Netflix type of service for that which is way more cheaper thant getting in this gamestop trade-in games evil plot. Anyways, the games eventhou they are a week old or new they are used, literally. So many Gamestop employees open new games, PLAY THEM, put them back on the box and sell them as new. Dude, it is USED. I dont care who played it, you are not a super being, your a human being like the rest of the customers that buy games and paly them and if they trade it in they are used. Yoau take something out and play it, it is used, period. Like the virigin, once her himen its broken thats it, she is not a virign, doesnt matter how you look at it. USED/FUCKED. I know is not the best example but you get the idea in a very shocking way right?

Anyways, its a rip off, a store that sell its used games only like 5 or 10 dollars cheaper the most, to sell a claerly used game in the store as new. Some people won't care, as long it works, but then again it is USED so dont sell it as new, specially if its a gift or something. I want it used I buy the used game and save couple more dollars.

I said in another blog before, but this trade-in/sell used games scheme in Gamestop is something that is destroying the video game industry, gamers lose money, while making gamestop richer. It is a simple formula, lets get an 8th grader kid, whose irresponsable parent or guardian has enough money to buy games to replace incompetent babysitters. This 8th grader on saturday wants a new game -who he clearly don't dessrve it- that costs $65, the kid returns it the next saturday as a trade in for another new game. He gets $20 in store credit (not cash) and he used it to get the other new game taht costs $65 also, but this time the final costs was $45 becuase of the credit. Who wins here? The store, they got back a $65 week old game by investing $20 of store credit which the kid used it. Lets say Gamestop is $20 short, how they get it back? Selling the used game that the kid traded in por $60. I f they sell that game not only they get their $20 back, but htey earn $40 more. So that used game made gamestop earn almost the double of the original price of the game.

Only a kid made that difference, making Gamestop squeeze money of that single game, they already paid the games royalties to the publisher on the first sell, but after the trade and the second sell its all clean income. Imagine now thousand of kids doing this. That is why they promote used games, even that the used games seem cheaper, the money of its price its all for Gamestop. So that is why when they open a new game and play it among employees and try to sell it back they sell it as new so they make sure to pay the publishers part of that certain copy of the game on that sell. Also people will be like, "if I pay full price for a new game that's being already used by employess I will buy it used then". Gamestop wins, either way. Fuck employees that play the games I want new. I usually buy used games when they are hard to find. I buy new games cause I want to support the game industry too, if I get it new, at least sell me the game shrinkwrapped. I want it new not used. Go to college. For now one, I will physically harm an employess hand if they slip in a used/new game inside the bag. Advice, ALWAYS CHECK TEH GAME ON TEH BAG BEFORE PAYING. And be mean to them when you realized of what they have done to you.

Now... lets see how gamestop deals with digital distribution.
