Toys R Us. Horrible selection of game and horrible service. I went to Toys R Us for the buy two get one free deal. I asked if they had TWEWY and they said no. I asked if they could look in the back and they said it wasnt in the back (they didnt even check). I went to see what other games they had, and it was a horrible collection of games. Barely anything interesting. I ended up buying Rondo of Swords, Professor Layton and Megaman Starforce 2. So I go to check out and they asked for an ID. I wondered why and they said that Megaman Starforce 2 was rated M. It clearly said it was rated E on the box. They said it was rated M in their system, so I had to give an ID. After all of that, the price was around 90 dollars. I said it should be less because of the sale. The cashier called for assistance and the guy said it is only Nintendo games for the DS. Of course the ad said all Nintendo DS games. After a while he finally took one of the games off. Man that was a horrible experience I had. Jakendo

yea i remember that deal(its like once every 3 years lol)..i guess all toys r us are the same cuz my local one had a HORRIBLE selection as well, i just said "screw this" and left

Oh my lord I am so sorry. That's easily worse than any experience I've had from Gamestop (so far).

EB Games was never bad to me, but Gamestop was a different story. My PS2 is a peice of crap, so I didn't want to buy a game new and not be able to return it if it didn't work. I picked up Tekken 5, new for 10$ but the used copy costed 19! They rip you off on trade ins too, and refused to take my friend's DS (it was defective) because it didn't have a stylus.

We have a Gamestop where I live. The people there are friendly, and its a great place. I was at a Gamestop out of town once, searching for Prince of Persia Two Thrones, and found it. I walk up to the counter, and stand and wait. They proceed to blow me off until, I get real **** and threaten to walk out. Absolutely ridiculous! The one we have, I go in all the time. The People there talk to me, we talk about alot of stuff, i get my game i leave happy. So it has got to do with the individual store. Because before I stepped into the out of town GS, I thought they were all the same. If anyone is interested and lives in Indiana, DON"T EVER GO INTO THE GAMESTOP IN HONEY CREEK MALL, IN TERRE HAUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is where I received the worst service.
