  • I haven't been going to GameStop for months now. Amazon all the way. Too many fucking broke ass games from GameStop.

  • They took them out because it was a competitor coupon. They werent suppose to be in there for gamestop.

    Moron

  • Not stealing. Just GS being stupid.

  • They're not stealing. They bought the games so they can do whatever they want to them at that point. Taking out the promo code sucks, but they're entitled to do so before they resell them. If we want that code in the box, we need to buy the game from somewhere else (screw Gamestop.)

  • My parents got me MW3 for Christmas but the people at gamestop gave us only the case with world at war and it was really pissing me off that someone was cheap enough to do that

  • I got FYEgames.

  • Okay then u try and go up against a multi-billion dollar corporation. Cause ppl have tried and lawyers won't touch them.

  • yeah thats like if they take the game from the case youd be pissed huh

  • Thats why I buy my games from ebay

  • this didn't happen to the one in my area

  • was it just one store or all

  • THASSS BUUU SHIITT

  • wad is boycott?

  • I pre ordered portal 2 and asked the worker if i was getting the role cage skin DLC and he said "yup" 1 month later *opens the case* WTF!?

  • i also have very bad experiences with best buy

  • personally i prefer to go to Mircocenter

  • Microsoft is shady you support them

  • to me gamespot dont carry good service in the first place.

    i have a walmart, gamespot, and gamexchange in lamar county where i live

    i dont ever do any buisness with gamespot anymore iv bought used games from them and not be in good condition or work right and not to mention the used games are just as much as the new game even after its been out long enough for the price to drop 50%.

    anywas to buy my used games i always use gamexchange not to mention they take scrachs off games

  • boycott boycott

  • i dont get it why is everyone freaking out when you can just buy the game some where else or order online

  • Ya I disagree

  • I didn't know Gamestop was doing their own "onlive" service until I watched this video. Interesting.

  • @wakenbaked420

    Dude ur a dick u have to admit it was wrong!

  • Sorry Gunns, but I got to disagree with you on this. Unlike Walmart, Gamestop is actually buying the games directly from the company and then selling them for a higher price. So between the time that they buy it and sell it, they can do whatever they want with it. Is it unethical, yes. Is it stealing, no. Am I still going to shop there, no.

  • Well considering I know everybody at my local Gamestop I'm not gonna boycott them anytime soon. Yes what they did was wrong, but it doesn't seem like that big of a deal to me. And i find stuff for better prices at my Gamestop than at Best Buy or any other place, so that's also an issue. IMHO this fiasco was completely overrated.

  • hooray for austrailia and uk we got GAME :D

  • @KFCArbiter Sweden too :D

  • These are the first videos that I disagree with Neil's opinion.

  • @parkouris4u thanks

  • hey guy check out my montage it is pretty awesome. just posted a new one. clan tryouts befriend GOLDENSLUGGER05.

  • great now i have to look for @teteradelabestia's comment.

    Wait wheres the rest of it

    *watches vid* SCREW GAMESTOP!

  • gamestop sucks i have no idea why anyone would want to buy games from gamestop amazon has best deals

  • I went into gamestop today just to look around while my gf was shopping at another store. Can someone please tell me why they shop there. They're selling used games for more money than new games at best buy and other stores. No wonder games have online passes. Why should they get all that money?

  • White supremist beverage?

    KKK=Koka-Kola?

  • what does the coupon do?

  • i feel like this is more of a matter of fraud instead of stealing. It's their product so feel as though they should the right to do what they wish with it. However it is not right to not inform the public of what they were doing. If gamers knew that the coupon was no longer included but s.till bought it anyway then it would their problem and not the company's fault

  • I'll give ya all 2/7 odds tht 60-70% of the dislikers are related to gamestop via a job lol

  • So GUNNS has a problem with a product being advertised as having a special something, then having it removed without the consent or even consideration of the end user.. Gee, this sounds completely opposite of his ps3 stand point.

  • - I have never supported GameStop. I only go in there to buy "NEW" games. That's how you support the developers. Not to buy the used copy for $5 dollars less, that goes straight into GameStop's pocket. Fuck Them.

  • It's a conspiracy for a conspiracy game!... Dear God. -Cloaks away-

  • I never shopped at Gamestop for the pure reason that they open their games. Plus I hate that god damn price sticker sticking to my game case.

  • @Captaink11175 the only reason i buy us just for the pre-orders r good

  • What's with the hat :o

  • Gamestop uses sweaty, white-supremacist, prostitute child labor. Got it!

  • FU GAME-STOP!!!!!!!!!

  • I call it stealing too... Is mess up they doing that... I always wanted to work there but now no...

  • My Gamestop didnt do this, I just bought Deuce Ex yesterday and it had the onlive card in my game...so it wasn't all gamestops that did this.

  • Gamestop has been SHIT for over 10 years

  • Oh yeah we should. Buy games off of kijiji, craigslist and local gaming stores. :P

  • Futureshop is better anyway. I bought la noire and played it for a week and traded it in. The trade in value was 47 dollars which is a hell lot more then eb games would give me. Plus with that store credit it can go to somthing other then video games.

  • Sure it's irrisponible but couldn't you just buy games from there if they don't come with those download service promo codes? What if I want to get a special edition from gamestop because it comes with exclusive in game stuff that isn't available at say future shop? I'm pre ordering AC:R from there for the exclusives.

  • I totally agree future shop is always cheaper then eb games or gamestop and they always have copies of games

  • I feel like i get riped off cuz magicly everytime i go in they say my game card is exp. When i just renewed it . Probably start buyin my games elsewhere.

  • I'm going to try not to get games from EB anymore but I kinda need to go there for used games and selling my used games for credit. Do they do the used games stuff in best buy and future shop?

  • @ballerfilmz They do in future shop.

  • Has anyone tried returning a game at gamestop? If it looks the least bit open they don't fucking take it. They're dicks about it actually. Now they are opening a game and we are expected to buy it from them?

  • EB games/Game Stop is only good for used games, but only sometimes...

  • The only reason I would go to eb was to get used or discontinued games, but the stores in my area have pretty much stopped that.

  • I no longer buy anything from GameStop.

  • Gamers boycott anything that makes them cry more.....

    Now watch, when theres something to actually boycott, no one will.

    Sometimes, I feel as if gamers deserve the bad karma they get.

  • Seriously don't boycott them, there are many regular people and gamers like you who get paid through working at gamestop. Just stop and think about the people this could effect and you'll understand that this is a stupid idea.

  • I was actually at an e.b games when they were talking about removing the coupon. I thought it was funny how the guys doing it were pisses as hell because they're fellow gamers. I would boycott them but i have 4 or 5 preorders with them right now. But after that I think I will definitely only use them as a last resort.

  • FUCK THAT

    THE BOYCOTT IS ONNNN

  • "Would you buy it? HELL NO. Unless you're racist".

  • Hmmm, I personally will still be buying games from them. Yes, i do believe that it is bullshit that they are acting this way but, for me, Im not buying the game so I dont care as much as someone would, actually buying that particular game.

  • Lol i was at gamestop when they were removing it lol

  • So....Your equating removing coupons with racism and child labor? I fail to see the correlation. Good luck with the boycott

  • True: hell even 7-11 sells video games

    

  • Gamestop should've have refused to sell Deus Ex from the begining, which is well within there rights. If they wanted to sell cartons of milk they could if it makes them money thats business. However anyone who bought the game opened should have got it at second hand price or they should get a refund & buy the game some place else. Finally is Gamestop the only place you can buy games? No there are plenty of places you can buy them, some of them almost certainly cheaper than Gamestop.

  • Couldn't agree more Gunns. I have zero respect for eb games anymore. Consider them boycotted!!!!

  • i used to go there coz is just next to my workplace but then i dont even bother starin on that store...

  • Man I bought a used PS3 ""from gamestop"" i just tried to take it back the other day to get a newer model, because i had a 40GB, and they said the person that sold it to me removed all the stickers on it so they don't know if it is stolen so they can't take it. I just said F*ckn gamestop sold it to me, but they wouldn't take it so i had to go to best buy get a hard drive 250GB for 50 bucks. And I can't say imma go shop somewhere else cause gamestop has the lower priced used games :(

  • @vEPICWARRIORv well 50 bucks for 250 aint that bad I mean I would rather do that than get a new console

  • @vEPICWARRIORv That's crazy because one of my boys got, got like that, but he bought a 360 and someone took out the hard drive. But Gunns is right about other stores having games, here in NYC we have stores on every corner selling games aand some of these places are kind of cheap, but yeah that's some bullshit gamestop be pulling.

  • I will not be going to gamestop anymore. I will be going to a new store called "oogie games".

  • I agree with this video completely,When you buy a "new" game you expect it to be original as is,when gamestop opens a package and takes something out it is no longer a new game it is used and that is theft.I will no longer buy or interact with gamestop any more.

  • They OPEN a game can u buy it for the USED price?

  • @HazelEyedMan29 No, because used has nothing to do with "opened" it has to be actually played.

  • U take a OPENED game to Gamestop they consider it USED...

  • you idiots dont understand business. this was a dumb move and it will hurt them.

  • ok yes one place does this and your telling me to boycott them i love gamestop the guys who work there i can have a hour long convo with them

  • Everyone fucks up now then so what GameStop took a coupon.

  • 7-11 sells games now

  • I used to shop at Gamestop when I lived in Canada, they were idiots, trying to sell me some kind of disc insurance n all that but if ya smart enough you can see through the whole charade and just get what ya came in to get. Same about damaged 2nd hand games, just ask to look at disc, don't accept if it looks bad.

    Back here in N Ireland its the same shit different company.

    BTW GunnShop you do realise your giving everyone the 2 fingers every video rather than peace lol!

  • iunno

  • I am not going to buy from game stop for some time because to take out that card form the game wich the game developer payed money or at least lost money for I simply dont agree with

  • I pulled my 3 pre orders. Guild wars 2, Diablo 3, Skyrim.

  • Well, I wouldn't mind any of this if they said that "You know, we don't support our competitiors" and if they returned all of the copies back. Then that would have been their policy and I would just buy that game from somewhere else. But now what they did is absolutely retarded and illegal, since they took the coupons out of the packages in secrecy, while the deal was probably to sell them as they are...

  • I notice that the top two comments mention that they either love or hate gamestop. If you ask me, it seems that the service quality of stores, (worldwide) seem to differ. This video is talking about GAMESTOP, itself. Not the store you go to buy at. If you are displeased with the service or product you receive fromyour outlet store, complain to that store, no need yell at the people who had nothing to do with it.

  • Yes I will continue to buy from them because I don't have that game for the code, so honestly I don't care.

  • EB games in Toronto Eaton Centre is the worst piece of crap ever, i have boycotted them for almost two years now.

  • you're right im pist because maybe i wanted to use that code if i bought the game

  • I have several issues with GS.: If you dont pre-order and you go in on release day they have no copies. I can understand preordering big label games, but it's a waist of my time to preorder EVERY game. If I had found my game opened I would have been pissed.

  • This is on most viewed... I know I'm gonna avoid gamestop when I can.

  • It's wrong, once the game is open they must sell it at a discount price cause it's no longer consider new cause it's open.

  • @dan198660120 No the definition of used is based of how much it has been PLAYED that is GS and most retailers definition of "used"

  • @leonia97 Ok say you buy a game that is brand new not used but opened with scratch, is it consider unused newly scratch ?

  • @dan198660120 Depends how scratched if it is horrible then yes thats probally used and if its a tiny little one i could not care,They did not play the game though they opened it and took out the coupon, that does not involve toucking the disk.

  • They dont have to its their game and they own it at that point therefore they can legally remove whatever they want. Its business and obviously you would fail at it kthx.

  • Its not theft. This entire arguement is flawed. They bought the game and as a retailer have complete legal ownership of it. They could take out the cd and sell you the empty cases if they wanted as long as they told you there was no game inside. Being a coupon this is even less of an issue. Deus Ex could have offered the free trial online by putting the code in the game itself. Gunz is too emotional and doesnt rationally look at the situation.

  • @teteradelabestia you're missing the point. the argument is that gamestop WAS NOT informing its customers that they removed the free trial.

  • @chrisakaswat idk what the fuck you're talking about cause her in Canada there is no such thing there are Gamestops and EB games wherever I go so maybe in America but there's both for me

  • This is bullshit I've heard of stuff going around like that and also when I went to go buy shift 2 unleashed they asked me if I wanted to play online and I said yes but thing that got me was that it cost like 10 bucks more and even on the game case it told u that it came with it free... Game stop / Electronics Beautique are full of shit

  • Well....GUNNS is always better than the chong show. Gosh i hate the chong show. -.-

  • dont have any choice but to go to gamestop even though its 90 minutes away, next nearest game store is almost 3 hours away

  • i dont think yer wife appreciates what you do...

  • Gamestop 50 bucks from me. >=[

  • EB was bought out by Gamestop. There is no more EB game stores. Btw I think I will continue being a costumer of gamestop. The two stores I go to are nice and the ppl who work there are helpful and kind. If they do what was explained in this video then...so what. As long as I get my fully functional game.

  • I'm ok with not going to gamestop for the rest of my life, besides I bought a $20 game from them, and when I wanted to trade the same game they said $0.18 cents, i was expecting at least $5, fuck gamestop, go WallMart!!!!!!!

  • I've been boycotting gamestop for the past 5 years...

  • In my country we called that BEING RIPPED OFF!!!!

  • theres no gamestop in Scotland so this isn't a problem for me

  • GAMESTOP IS FTW

  • he lair h=dont listen to US resitsen

  • fuck off gunn 

  • After I get Dead Island I am never going back to EB Games. The only reason i am going to EB for Dead Island is cause I am going to get Turtle Beach Headset

  • woot for buying games at bestbuy rofl

  • fuck gamestop

    

  • K, I will only trust gamestop with accessories from now on. Now I'll use walmart to buy all my games. Gamestop, you just lost a major customer

  • The eb games at my house is great. They are extremely friendly and always make sure you get everything you're supposed to get. They're friendly, all locals and they all share a love for games. Some places may suck, but the EB games near my house doesn't

  • @Kamjared EB games is a part of Game Stop.

  • @baggedyman I know. Im just calling it this because it is what the store is by my house

  • Lulz, they did this to me when I bought NFS last year. I bought a BRAND NEW copy and didn't get an online pass. So I just returned it and went to Wal-Mart and bought a new copy. Pain in the ass, but at least I got to play online. I NEVER go to GameStop ever since I got a high end PC. Steam > GameStop.

  • I should probably close my Modern Warfare pre order at Gamestop

  • @JeffHardyRocks3000 if u do u losse all the XP points u rack up for preordering, besides gamestop only did that to Deus Ex because of competiton, since its a console game u should keep ur pre-order trust me, u have more benefit pre-ordering at gamestop than anywhere else and people dnt realize that

  • Luckily i pre-ordered Battlefield 3 at Best Buy for the Spec-act upgrade :D wait but my Modern Warfare is at Gamestop :O

  • Ok gamestop polociy is that they cannot give this coupon to consumers. The producer of the game should have found that out and decided. Not gamestops fault all the corporations want is to be top dog that's how the world works and that's how it will work for some time. Ok gamestop had every right to stop selling and take out the coupon

  • Who cares?!!? need to get a life!

  • Thumbs up if you're racist and you love it!

  • I'd only buy it if it was made by Prostitutes.

  • People still go to GameStop?

  • gamestop is badass, i can find games at gamestop that i cant find anywhere else, and i can get info about games or help finding a game, ya i can get help at best buy but not to the level of gamestop...

  • Gamestop is the only way I can get BF3 trade in's

  • people go ask any gamestop employee they will tell you the true story. dont act like a pompus asshole and think you know anything about the situation. and gunns left out one big piece of info it was only the pc versions of the game. square enix didnt tell gamestop about the coupons and therefore have recalled all pc versions. so get the story straight before you make an ass of yourself.

  • @chrisdawg0032 O'kay that makes alot of sense. (If this were true) I believe if they are opening new games to take out content, they can do that. The problem is the full price they expect people to pay if it's open. A new game is unopened, still in the plastic wrapper. If it's already open, I want it to be under the category of used games and get it cheaper then. Boycott? no.

  • now i feel ashamed for pre ordering b3 at gamestop

  • im with you on how there stilling from the ppl but im not going to boycott them

  • they have know write

  • Gamestop sucks. I sold my games there on my birthday. All my games from Gamecube to Gameboy. Including the consoles & it was about $80 store credit on a gamestop card. They ended up giving another guy my money..

  • @ConsoleGAMER25 to ban/ avoid a place

  • LOL bucky larson was the first 5 minute ad on youtube that i actually watched

  • I have been boycotting GS/EB since i was 12. They have terrible customer service, they rip you off when buying used games, and everything is way overpriced. This is just the icing on the urinal cake.

  • @AdamBombStudios lol i remember i had sly 2's value for a cent n ff7 full case n stuff 4 20 cents

  • *and mw3 there

  • Dam and I already per paid for battle

  • I think Gamestop has gotten a lot better. The Employees seem a lot more nice, and more helpful.

  • I hat gamestop (or EB games in Australia). They are greedy, unhelpful overpricing c**ts. Other stores sell games for more the 20% less then EB. I think Gamestop needs to come down from their throne and actually serve their customers.

  • I get most of my games on steam.

  • im going to keep supporting gamstop

  • I stopped going to gamestop when I found out you can get way better deals on ebay

  • The only reason why I would ever go to gamestop would be to get a preorder. I refuse to get any other kind of purchase there whether it be used (because out of 10 used games, BioShock was the first to actually work when I put it in my xbox) or new. I would love to boycott Gamestop but that would require me to not be the only one in the rally with a lone sign trying to rally everyone that thinks I am a loon.

  • @Avileader2 what kind of gamestop do u go to all the games i got there work  USED games

  • @dorianxx2 A gamestop retail store in Yukon, Oklahoma. The closest store to where I live. I guess I am one of few in Oklahoma who values the well being of a game. Hell I'm one of few in Oklahoma who knows what the fucking A button does when I press it on Halo.

  • @Avileader2 its not gamestops fault the games didnt work when you buy a used game(its automatically a risk) they even tell you if it doesnt work you bought it and you can still return it in 30 days,it even on the receipt

  • @metalfreak14 I'm not saying it's gamestop's fault. I am simply implying that I have a bad history when getting their used games. Because I live so far away and going to the Oklahoma City Metropolitan area is few and far between, I can't just give back the game to gamestop especially when I can't drive.

  • @metalfreak14 there suppose to check it to make sure it works

  • PlayNtrade FTW.

  • i hate how sometimes you buy a new game and all they have left is the display case and they pull the game out of like a envelope/sleeve and try to sell it to you for the new price.. fucking idiots. its not new if its been opened!

  • @DeathBloke1

    But was it touched no and tell it to the workers if you have the guts to.

  • @Jermz1997 How do you know it wasnt used? the workers can actually take them home and play them, so they can say a used game is new but the last one in stock and charge you the full price. and FYI ive never bought the game if they try and give me the display case.

  • @DeathBloke1

    I see what you mean but then again people always look at the disc I mean who doesn't?

  • @Jermz1997 true. u should always look at the disc.

  • JEWS

  • well i still get pre orders from gamestop cuz some of the stuff they give you is gamestop exclusive.. but i pre ordered Modern Warfare 3 at Target for only $1.00 and they give you a free $5.00 Target giftcard the day you pick it up!

  • Amazon.com FTW!!

  • I won't give any more of my money to GameStop. I had no personal issue with them before this, but this incident is just very underhanded.

  • i dont really care at all if they took it out who cares you have it for the system you bought it for so settle down!

  • i lov
