GameStop trash anyway

Falling knife. Needs a serious reboot...

Every video game I hear about that has any hype or build up seems to be a disappointment when it finally gets released. Might have something to do with it.

Anyone think they will be open in 5 years? Everything is available elsewhere and soon it will all be download only I suspect.

GameStop is bunk

I'll give them $3 for their $7 stock

Looks like all their shady business practices are coming back to haunt them...
