Also no, I don't shop at gamestop, ever, not even with my 15% discount. Amazon still manages to beat gamestop on everything.

This. is. sooooo true! I only buy things at game stop if they have some really good and exclusive game deal. You have to make like 15k points on your reward card to get a good $10 to $20 discount on anything. With amazon, you buy something and they either give you a discount of $20 on the pre-order or $20 credit on your next purchase. Now 15k is a whole lot of money spent on games unless you buy them all pre-owned which cuts that amount by half since you get twice the points for buying pre-owned stuff. But still you save way more with amazon.

People should just buy the game from Best Buy, Wal-Mart, or some other retailer. If people had a pre-purchase, they should exchange it for store credit and never buy from Gamestop again.

Reports now coming in that Gamestop is giving customers $50 gift cards if they purchased Deus Ex for the PC.

Jebus. That must mean they took a noticeable sales blow on top of the PR blow. Right? Then again, who wants a fucking Gamestop giftcard. "Hey look, I can buy 50 dollars of opened shit that has been tampered with!"

I'd still take my business elsewhere.
