Yeah, EB was my place of choice back then.

Both Game Stop and EB have inflated prices. If you must shop local then Fry's is cheapest and discounts the fastest (Walmart isn't bad for well known titles but they often censor games so I avoid Walmart), however, the net offers the lowest prices you can find any where. Most places can even get it to you in 1-3 days.

are you sure walmart censors games?

yes I know they censor music cd's. But I doubt they have computer programmers smart enough to alter code in a computer program.

In other news, Adobe has bought Macromedia.

I worked at a gamestop... I still buy my games at EB lol.

This makes me sad. Both companies have gone too far from their origins, selling PC games but EB still has more variety and and bargain bins for PC games.

Must be why all the Babbage's in Utah closed, they had no EB.

The EB here has no bargain bin.

ACK!

Isn't Adobe bigger than Macromedia?

If not, it goes to show you how many idiots there are out there.
