Pun I'm seriously this close to blocking you.

And I really don't appreciate you pretending your copy of God Hand doesn't work just because you want a new box.

I'd consider Baten Kaitos, but no GameStop within 100 miles of me has it and it's unavailable to buy online on their site too.

I saw DDR Mario Mix for like $13 at my local Gamestop. I almost bought it because it's supposed to be rare, but apparently a used copy without the mat isn't worth a ton. I guess I could ask if they have the mat but I bet they don't.

Bull****.

You go over an entire year before once, even ONCE mentioning that the game didn't work. And, all of a sudden, "oh yeah, that copy of God Hand doesn't work". Out of nowhere. And then I ask for you to tape it not booting up or show me proof or something, because I know for a fact it worked PERFECTLY FINE before I sent it, and now, for the first time, you claim to have thrown it away.

Bull.

Bought it because I heard what a great battle system it had. Didn't find the battle system that great.


Besides, I like plenty of great games, I'm just 10 times more vocal about what I dislike.

I heard the original Baten Kaitos had a great battle system and the battle system was the main thing about it I didn't like. So I'd have to know how Origins is better.

That's true, but man... back around '05-'06, they still carried frickin' NES games. That were released twenty years prior. Now, they're trying their hardest to get rid of everything from only one generation ago!

They don't give a damn about the retro gamer, and honestly, I virtually never shop at GS anymore because of it. I miss the days when I could stock up on awesome B/W Game Boy games there.
