No Blockbusters anywhere in our area take in game trades. It's a limited market that does that. The "culture" of lining up isn't decided by Gamestop as much as by the consumer who always like a "happening", so Gamestop obliges. THEN you follow up with the fact that more people lined up at WalMart (again, nowhere near me)while blaming GameStop for the "culture. Fool. The store my two sons works at (one is a GA, one a Asst Mgr) has a huge ADULT customer base who appreciate talking with people who share their passion. Sure, there are plenty of kids (not necessarily ignorant) and parents going in as well. I used to be one of those parents with kids who were anything but ignorant. It's a fun place for young gamers to go, and we started when it was FUNCOLAND so I know how it works. I'd have to drag them out and the employees were mostly friendly and understanding. I'm not suprised they ended up working there. The older one started at Starbucks becasue THAT was supposed to be the hot place to be, but he is much happier at GS. I don't expect this to be a career but I'm telling you for a high school/college job it's not a bad gig. Beats cleaning out he mixers at Jamba Juice or cleaning the dining room at Fudruckers, both of which my other kids did when she was working her way through school. The only other part time job that even came close to being this good was when one of them worked at the theather, but even that had it's share of problems. No job is perfect and nobody makes you go there, work there, or even think about it...much less post crap on a forum. Anti-GameSpot you couldn’t be more wrong about more things.

you said: “The point is, gamestop is better than any other retailer in the world for trades. I challenge you to prove otherwise. We have the best trade process, and for the most part the best trade values.”

LMAO. you realize blockbuster gives almost double what gamestop/EB does on trade-ins.

Gamestop is a horrible store, plain & simple. It’s whole market-share is ignorant school-kids & their eager to please parents. Any mature, respectable adult gamer either buys online or from whatever store they happen to pass after the game they want is released.

Gamestop thinks their “culture” should have people lining up at midnight for the privilege of buying from them. Well, look at the Halo 3 launch; more people lined up outside Wal-Marts. that should tell you something.

The truth is “culture” is another way for saying assholes w/ an excuse.

Sometimes the trade in value can be dissapointing, but oh well. It's a business, they are trying to make money. So yeah, I can give them some slack. I think they do a great job.
